We went to the house we're buying last night and met the seller. He was absolutely wonderful. He went through the whole house with us, showed us how to use everything, and asked us if we wanted him to leave the gas grill because he doesn't need it. I can't even begin to describe what a different experience this is from the last house we had an offer on.
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes ya need the pain to fully appreciate the pleasure.

sj, I am incredibly happy for you that this current experience has been so much more stress-free and (almost) enjoyable. The house buying process can never be described as enjoyable, but the feeling of satisfaction once it's done is well worth it.

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

I've made a lifestyle choice to just appreciate pleasure on its own merit. Please redirect my pain to people who need perspective. I require no such thing.
