Spike: We got a history, him and me. Fred: What? Spike: It was a long time ago. He was a young Watcher, fresh out of the academy when we crossed paths. It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Excellent point. That would seem to be the key. The bitching afterwards, I mean.

Yeah, there will be plenty of that. And drinks, too, I think. DH wanted to bail on the whole thing because he sees ex-co-worker every year in Vegas (without the wife). For him, that's enough. But since they called me, and I didn't have a good excuse at the ready, I caved and committed.

After this morning, I'm escapaded out. I'd be happy to take them out to eat so I don't have to wash dishes or clean up. And they'll make a handy excuse for leaving early.

Kat--I hope you feel less at the end of your rope than you did yesterday.

ita, my rope is mostly gone. I just had an extremely upsetting phone call withe Grace's doctor and I have a job interview in less than 3 hours. Can't really concentrate or get my face unpuffied.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Ah, fuck, Kat. I'm so sorry to hear that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, Kat.
