Title: When In Doubt, Make A List

Author: baudown

Pairing: Spike/Xander

Disclaimer: Not Mine

written for: open_on_sunday

Prompt: plus/minus

Word count: 100 (plus a photo)

Xander studied the list, frowning.  It was decidedly unbalanced.

In the minus column:

Uses up hot water, shampoo

Blood --  doesn't wash mugs, leaves rings, microwave FOUL

TV -- stolen cable (arrest, jail?), bogarts remote, soccer football boring!!!

Gross smells -- peroxide, nail polish, cigarettes, blood

Constant flirting (big ho)

Evil

Weirdly possessive

Annoying

Stupid British slang

Bad moods -- like a fucking toxic cloud

Bad temper -- broken furniture, holes in wall

Friends (tell them!!!???) -- Willow (wigged?)  Giles (disgusted?)  Buffy (stakeage?)

In the plus column:

SPIKE

Behind him, husky-voiced:  "Come to bed, pet."

Xander crumpled the list into a ball.

Pretty much a no-brainer.

Excellent, and kudos for the visual. Nice touch!

And double kudos for giving me an excuse to use the Spander icon. ;-)

Thank you!

And you know how I feel about that icon. Best. Icon. Ever.

I was so happy to find this icon! ;-)
