Title: MST3K 1/2- `My Hero` and `Evolution` (Buffy)
Author: Kojiro (http://www.fanfiction.net/index.fic?action=Directory-AuthorProfile&UserID=19476)


It’s a doubler today, folks. Two Buffy fics, one for the lads to MiSTie, and one for the girls to do. Did I mention the vodka? There’s a lot of that about. And Pokémon. Vodka and Pokémon. Which sounds like a terrible detective novel, I know, but there you go. :o) And the hosting part sucks, it’s too explanatory. It’ll be back to it’s weird oddness next time. That is, if there uis a next time, I need more fic, goshdarnit.
Sooo… as ever, fics to me! Fics to me! dittoblue30@yahoo.co.uk . Aww, come on, are you prepared to laugh at yourself or not? Jisuka-hime’s done it twice now, to Spike’s happiness.
Huuuuge thanks to the authors who send me stuff, at the risk of sounding like a poor actress getting an Academy Award… I love you all! Mwah!
That’s about it, except for the disclaimer that I always forget.

It’s not mine.

That OK? The characters aren’t mine (Aoi aside) , the idea isn’t mine, the poorly rhyming theme is mainly not mine. And now that we’re nice and legal, off we go!

*begin funky waah-waah guitar*
In the not-too distant future,
Somewhere in time and space,
A random group of people are caught in an endless chase,
Pursued by a woman whose name is Jessibelle,
An evil girl who wants James to be hers,
She threw a few fics in her purse,
And in her rocket ship she trails them all across the universe!
(Jessibelle: `You’re not running properly!`)

Jessibelle: "I’ll send them crappy fanfic,
The worst I can find,
They’ll have to sit and read them all,
Until James is mine!"

Now keep in mind they can’t control where the fanfics begin or end,
They’ll have to keep their sanity with the help of their loyal friends.
Reviewer role-call!

*for the girls!*
Cat! "I’m not *that* surreal…"
Jessie! "Eww, hentai-y."
Ao-o-oi! "I’m meant to say something here?"

*for the guys!*
Scott! "I’m going insane!"
Declan! "Pika-pika-pikachu!"
Spi-i-i-ke! "Sod off."

The weird bits are innumerable, please try not to barf,
Just repeat to yourself, it’s only a fic, turn off your brain and laugh,
Mystery Surreal Theatre 3000 ½!

We begin a new MST3K ½ story not in the SoL, as usual, but in Jessibelle’s smaller spaceship, ex-property of Team Rocket boss Giovanni, who’s off on a little holiday. She’s giving the place a minor spring clean, and, finding some junk to get rid of, she calls the SoL on the monitor. What better place to chuck a load of old rubbish than there?
"Helloooo, my dearest pets!" Jessibelle chirped, annoyingly sunny as ever.
"Headache." murmured Spike, who had the bad luck to be stood near the monitor at the time. "No time for irritating sweetness." He’d been trying to bite Declan, who had finished off the last of the milk, and the chip in his head was giving him a hard time about it. Aoi gently pushed Spike aside and onto something soft. The soft thing happened to be James, who was sleeping on the sofa. Above the noises of a minor death struggle behind her, Aoi grinned at Jessibelle, and asked what was up.
"Well, dear, I’m cleaning out some of the old junk on the Team Rocket command ship, and I figured you’d want it!"
"Uh… Thanks?"
"I can tell you’re pleased! Shame. Anyway, I’m sure Mr Giovanni won’t need these old Pokémon anyway, you can have some, then I’ll let the rest free."
Aoi looked up sharply. "Pokémon?" she asked in disbelief. "You want us to take them?" She made a few frantic motions to catch the rest of the crew’s attention, and they crowded around the screen noisily. There wasn’t a lot of space, and it was a bit of a squeeze.
"Eww, yes, take the horrible brutes. The only Pokémon I need is my beautiful Vileplume!" She hugged it for emphasis, squeezing a good deal of air out of the poor plant’s lungs. Behind it, Gio’s Persian snickered. It had been hell since Gio went on holiday, leaving Jessibelle to look after him, but the odd moment of Vileplume torture made it a little better.
"James, get your elbow out of my ear!"
"Sorry, Jessie, but someone’s pushing my arm!"
"Oh, that’s me, sorry."
"No, actually, it was me, I was doing it on purpose."
"Dammit, Vegeta!"
"Hehe."
"Bite me."
"I would if I could, but I can’t!"
Aoi made a few more of the hand motions she was so good at, accidentally hitting Ant in the process. "Shushums!" she yelled. "Jessibelle’s offloading old Team Rocket Pokémon on us!"
"Really? Nice."
"I wanna Charizard!"
"I want a Bulbasaur!"
"I want a Pikachu! Oh, wait, I have one."
Jessibelle shook her head. "Uh-uh. We’re not doing it like that, it’s far too convenient. Now, they all have little number-thingys, call one out, and you’ll get that Pokémon."
"Suits me." grinned Aoi and Declan, both of whom had spent too much time on Pokémon Stadium and knew all of the numbers.
"37!" yelled Aoi, who was rewarded with a red Pokeball from the transporter.
"26!" said Dec, who also got a Pokeball. The others, who actually had lives and hadn’t memorised the Pokémon orders, yelled numbers at random, each getting a Pokeball. James dropped his twice, before Jessie hit him over the head with hers and duct-taped it to his hands.
"OK, now what?" asked Scott. Jessie demonstrated by throwing the Pokeball with practised ease, revealing an Arcanine. James did the same, with some difficulty, since the tape was still hanging on. Eventually, he received his…
"Growly! My Growlithe!" he hugged Growly tightly, which licked his face and woofed contentedly. "Er… but why did Team Rocket have my Growlithe?"
"Some plot point we missed, I guess." shrugged Cat.
"All right, lets have a go." Scott threw the ball, which bounced off the wall and rolled under the sofa. Vegeta was throwing his up in the air and catching it, and Spike had completely ignored his and had buggered off to make coffee.
After some time, a lot of demonstrating by Jessie and James and several dents in the wall, the Pokeballs were opened.
Vegeta pulled a face. "It’s a blob of gas." He sniffed. "With a ball in the centre."
"It’s a Gastly." said Aoi, who was playing with her new Vulpix. "It’s all ghost-y and that." The Gastly pulled a face back at Vegeta, and they started a miniature, yet vicious, face-pulling contest. Since Vegeta couldn’t turn his face inside out like the Ghost Pokémon, he kinda lost. Scott ended up with a Psyduck, Cat with a Starmie, Declan with a Raichu, Ant with a Ditto, and Spike, to his great distaste, got a Jigglypuff.
"What the hell is it?" he sniffed. The Jigglypuff puffed up in annoyance and used a double-slap attack on his face.
"Oh, and there are some bottles here, too, I figure you can recycle them!" yipped Jessibelle.
"In what?" frowned Scott. He was ignored for plot reasons, as a few crates of bottles hit the floor. "Ooo, vodka."
"I don’t like that stuff, it doesn’t taste nice. You have it." said Jessibelle. There was a cheer from the crew. "And since I’ve been so nice and gave you so much stuff, I’m sure you won’t mind reading two fics today!" There was a boo from the crew. Someone chucked a shoe at the monitor.
"Of course, if you simply let me have James, you won’t have to read any more… no? Fine. They’re Buffy fics, so Spike has to be in both of them, but apart from that, I want different people in each time. The fics begin in an hour." Jessibelle disappeared from view with a click, and a small wail from Persian, who had just received a face full of gas from Vileplume.
"I say," said Spike, standing up and grabbing a bottle, "That we get good and blasted before we go in."
Strangely enough, no-one disagreed.
An hour or so later, the crates were lighter, many people and Pokémon alike were highly drunk, and groups for the theatre had been set up, three lads first, then three girls and Spike. So, as the light went off, three people carefully stood up, and made their way to the theatre, eventually making it after ten minutes and a twisted ankle fro,m tripping over Growly.

***Spike staggers in waving the half full bottle, Declan trips in after him, and Scott drags himself in last, holding two bottles. He hands one to Dec, before falling into his chair.***
SPIKE: *singing drunkenly* Five green bottlesh… standing on th’ wall-ll-ll-ll…
DEC: *sings drunkenly also* If on… er… one of them bottles should ‘appen to fall…
SCOTT: *snores*
SPIKE: *elbows Scott in the ribs* Wake up! Fic!
SCOTT: Wstfgl… uh… drink?
SPIKE: No, *fic.*
SCOTT: Aww.
DEC: Try looking in your hand, Sherlock Evil.
SCOTT: *looks blearily at his hand, the one holding a bottle* Oh. Yeah.

>Author: jisuka-hime

SPIKE: Yes! I love Jisuka-hime! *hic* Mwah!
SCOTT: Do we get more Angel mockery? Cause I heard that was fun.
SPIKE: *slurs* It was!
DEC: My head hurts… vodka… bad…

>Rating: Umm... pj or

SCOTT: … Duncan. *giggles*
DEC: Shut up. Ow.

>g
>Title: My Hero
>Summary: Angel loves pufft

SCOTT: The Stay-Puft Marshmallow man?
DEC: Actually, I think it’s the worst typo for `Buffy` I’ve ever seen.
SPIKE: Oooh, let’s call her `Pufft` from now on, it suits her. *giggles*
ALL: *giggle drunkenly*

>so when people speak to her he gets all madd!
>Story: Whe Angel walked into the Bronze The first person he spotted was Buffy talking with Buffy.

SCOTT: Wha…?
DEC: She’s talking... with… herself…?
SPIKE: Double Buffy? That’s not a good thing…
SCOTT: That would maybe make sense if I hadn’t had five Smirnoff Ices before I came in here.

>The jelousy rose within him and within moments he was across the room to where the duo sat.

DEC: Duo! Gundam *hic* Wing! *giggles*
SCOTT: Why’s Duo in the Bronze? Wouldn’t have thought the mobile suit wotsit would fit through the door.

>Grabbing Xander with one hand, and biting him.

DEC: Nooooo! Not Xander! *falls off chair*
SCOTT: (as Xander) Hell, I wasn’t even here! I was at the other end of the room talking with Willow about Buffy’s new twin, Pufft!
*Dec pulls himself back up shakily*

>Don't you dare talk to my woman," he growled, throwing Xander across the room.
>Ohh, Angel, my hero!" Buffy gushed,

SPIKE: Lemon alert! Lemon alert!
ALL: Eww!
SCOTT: Duck and cover!
*Dec falls off his chair again*
SCOTT: *giggles* Not literally, man.
DEC: Oh, ‘k. *gets back up shakily*

>jumping to her feet and throwing her arms around him.
>It's okay, Buffy," Angel told her sweetly. "I will kill all those who dare talk to you."
>Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you!" Buffy said, jumping up and down.

SPIKE: *giggles madly* Buffy onna Space Hopper!
ALL: *silence as that image is thought over for a while*

>"I want only to be with you, all others deserve to die!"
>But, Buffy -- " Willow protested, from her seat at the table.
>Angel, kill her. Now!" Buffy ordered, and the vampire jumped to obey her, biting Willow and drinking her blood with a >smile.

DEC: Noooo! Not Willow! *falls off chair again*
SPIKE: *hiccups* (to Dec) Why’re you on the floor?
DEC: I’m not sure…

>Strangely, no one in the crowded restaurant seemed to notice
>Xander suddenly jumped to his feet, and Angel's eyes widened as he took an instinctive step backwards.The boy's >eyes were glowing golden with rage, demonically golden.

SCOTT: … and magically delicious!
SPIKE: Xander’s eyes are Lucky Charms?
SCOTT: One’s a green clover, and one’s a yellow star. But no icky cereal bits, just the yummy mushroom. Er, marshmallow. *hiccups*

>You . . . you . . . you . . . " Xander chanted in a strange tone, walking towards Angel with outstretched arms.

DEC: (as Xander) I love you *this* much!
SPIKE: (as Xander) Angel, hold me!
SCOTT: (As Xander) Angel, pull my finger!

>"He's become a zombie. Angel told Buffy, grabbing her arm and pulling her behind him, still intent upon protecting >her from all that wanted to speak with her.
>Oh, no! Angel, save me!" Buffy cried in a frightened voice.

SPIKE: (as Buffy) He wants to *speak* to me! Oh, the horror!
SCOTT: (as Buffy) Yeah, you know I’m allergic to vocals! All those speech patterns… oh, the pain, the pain of it all!

>I will protect you, Buffy," the vampire assured her. Just then Giles walked into the Bronze, and ran towards them. >Buffy -- " he said.
>"Angel," Buffy said quickly, before Giles could continue, "he dared to speak to me." Angel's face transformed into >that of it's vampire visage, and he took a step towards the Watcher, ignoring the zombie Xander.

DEC: (as Zombie Xander) Er, hello? Being a zombie here, people! `You, you, you`, ya know?
SCOTT: (as Giles) Yeah, attack the zombie, not me!

>You you you COW," he hissed. "You -- you dared to speak with Buffy, Goddess of Slayers?" Giles' eyes widened. >"What's going on here?" he asked. Buffy, you promised me you were going to stop seeing him! What about us?"

SPIKE: Oooh, hello. Smut between the old guy and the Slayer?
DEC: Aw, ew. That’s a sobering thought.
SCOTT: You’re still not sober, though.
DEC: Not very sobering, then. *hiccups*

>Angel suddenly stopped, transforming back to his human face and turning to stare at Buffy with a hurt statement. >What's he talking about, Buffy?" Angel demanded. It was when you were avoiding me," Buffy explained. "I couldn't >live without you, but you were never around. I needed a protector, and Giles was available. However you are here >now, and I will not permit any but you to speak with me." Angel nodded, and ran towards Giles, biting him and >draining him of his blood, as he had done to Willow.

DEC: Noooo! Not Giles! *falls off chair once more*

>That's taken care of," he told Buffy, returning his attention to Xander. You . . . you . . . you . . ." Xander continued to >chant, his arms outstretched. Xander, what are you doing?" Cordelia demanded, walking into the club and dressed >in

SCOTT: A trash-bag?
DEC: Greyhounds?
SPIKE: *leers* Nothing?

>the latest fashion, as always. I told you never to speak with Buffy!" You . . . you . . . you . . . " Xander said again. >Yeah, it's me, no, duh!" Cordelia replied, rolling her eyes.

SCOTT: … across the pool table and into the left hand pocket.

>Just thought you idiots might be interested in knowing that Spike and Drusilla have taken over the planet.

SPIKE: YES! I rule!
SCOTT: Oh, great…
DEC: Hang on, mate, you’re not even on the planet right now.
SPIKE: Oh.
SCOTT: Spike rules the world! Hot and cold running vodka for all!
ALL: Yippee!

>Everyone except those in the Bronze now serve them." ANGEL!" Buffy screamed. "She just spoke with me!" Angel's >eyes narrowed dangerously.

DEC: It *is* dangerous to have narrower eyeballs than you should.
SPIKE: (as Angel, whiny) Buffy! My eyes got too narrow and they popped out of my skull! *cries*

>"How dare you," he hissed, advancing towards Cordelia. Xander turned to do the same, still chanting.

SCOTT: (as Zombie Xander, chanting) How funky is your chicken… how funky is your chicken…

>Angel got to her first, and drained her of her blood happily.

DEC: ...
SCOTT: What, no `Noooooo!` and a chair dive?
DEC: For Cordy? Nah.

>"That's what you get for talking to my Buffy," he told her. Oh, my hero!" Buffy chirped cheerfully. " I'm never talking to >you again!" growled Cordiliea.

SPIKE: …With no blood.
DEC: (as Cordy) In the five seconds I have to live, I’m never talking to you again! Except to tell you that I won’t be talking, which is what I’m doing now, so my not talking to you begins now ! Gurrgh! *chokes*

>You . . . you . . . you . . . " Xander continued.

DEC: Bejesus, does that ever stop?
SCOTT: Yeah, kill ‘em again!

>"God, would you shut him up already?" Buffy demanded. Angel frowned. "I already killed him, though," he protested.
>"Kill him again!"

SPIKE: Ooo, psychic. Or have you read this before?
DEC: Yeah. In fact, I can tell you what happens next… someone else DIES!
SCOTT: If Oz wanders in and dies, do I have a right to be disturbed? He reminds me of me.

>Angel sighed and rolled his eyes heavenwards before advancing on the boy once more. Biting the boy-turned->zombie, he drank his blood and then threw his body against the wall before shuddering.

DEC: Noooo, not Xander again!
SCOTT/SPIKE: *wait*
SCOTT: Not falling over this time?
DEC: Oh aye, yeah. *falls off chair*

>"I was right," he muttered.
>"About what, my hero?" Buffy purred.

SPIKE: (as Angel) He hadn’t washed his neck since Thursday. It was gross.
DEC: (as Angel) He made a neato splatter as he hit the wall.
SCOTT: (as Angel) Chickens making excellent house-pets. But, anyway…

>He doesn't taste good. I didn't think he would."
>Oh, but you dealt with it for me?" Buffy said ecstatically. "Oh, thank you, thank you, Angel, you're the best, I don't >know how I ever lived without you."
>You'll never have to again," Angel answered, kissing her.
>I've killed all those who distract you from me. So long as we never leave the Bronze Spike and Drusilla can not >speak with you."

SPIKE: Speak with her? I don’t want to speak with her. I want to drain her blood and do a kooky dance on her grave, talking wouldn’t come into it.

>Oh, goodie!" Buffy replied. "Promise me if any one of these people," she gestured towards the still oblivious patrons, >dare speak with me, you will kill them."
>"Of course I will," Angel said. "I will kill anyone who dares speak with you." My hero!" Buffy said again, and they >kissed once more.

SCOTT: (as Waiter) Would you like another coffee?
SPIKE: (as Buffy) No! Help me Angel, he’s viciously speaking to me!
DEC: (As Angel) Taa daa daaa! Angel Boy is here to save the day!

>*****
>THE END
>A/N Wasn't That fun?

DEC: Fun like a hernia…
SPIKE: AN? What’s that?
SCOTT: Anti-Nebraska.
DEC: Altitude? Never.
SPIKE: Alcohol Nurse.
SCOTT: OK, was it just me, or did our last three statements not make any sense?
DEC: *thinks* … It’s just you, mate.

I think this is the best story I've ever written!

SPIKE: No way! Sugar Spice and Gunpowder, with the whiny Angel, fainting Buffy, dumb Willow and selfish Oz! That ruled! *shameless plug alert for Jisuka-hime’s Sugar, Spice and Gunpowder… Oh, and the MiSTing of it I did, of course. ^_^*

Hope you have enjoyedd reading it as much as I have. Until next time Bye bye!

SCOTT: Next… time? Aww, a new neurosis…
DEC: That was… odd…
SCOTT: I’m scared.
DEC: I’m terrified.
SPIKE: I RULE THE WORLD! *hic*
SCOTT: It was freakish.
SPIKE: I liked it, anyway.
DEC: It was OK. But that could be the drink talking.
SCOTT: *giggles* Talking drink… hehee… little talking bottles and that…
DEC: It’s the girl’s turn, we gotta get out now. And we have Pokémon to play about with.
SPIKE: Can’t I change my pink balloon Pokémon for… well… *anything* else?
SCOTT: Hehee… talking girls drink bottles…
*** They eventually find their legs and wobble out of the theatre.***

***Tis time for the girl’s fic, and Aoi skips in happily (vodka makes her ultra giddy), followed by Cat, also skipping. Jessie last, there’s much less skipping from her. Spike trundles in last, not entirely wanting to be `one of the girls`.***
AOI: Heheee…
CAT: Whee!
JESSIE: *sighs* This is gonna be hell.
SPIKE: I’m a bit more sober now, I think.
JESSIE: Thank god for that…
SPIKE: S’alright James.
JESSIE: Augh!
AOI: *drunkenly* Hell… that rhymes with yell! Hah!
CAT: Arr, you’re soooo clever.

>Title: Evolution 1/1 B/A, sorta B/R
>Author: Starla (Starla@B...) Disclaimer: Joss Whedon and his crew own the characters, settings, >etc. I'm borrowing them, I'll give em a run through the carwash before I put em back.

CAT: *starts singing `Carwash` very loudly. Very loudly. Aoi joins in and starts to dance on the cinema seats before Jessie pulls them both down.*
JESSIE: You’ll thank me for his tomorrow. *thwaps them over the head with a mallet, stunning them slightly. As an afterthought, she thwacks Spike too*
SPIKE: Aiee, what was that for?
JESSIE: I’m fairly certain you were about to play percussion along with them.
SPIKE: Wasn’t!
JESSIE: Air guitar, then.
SPIKE: You got me…

>Distribution: IF you want it, take it, but let me know. Author's Notes: I seriously had to debate >whether or not to post this. I personally think it's a piece of shite,

CAT: Ooo, language!
AOI: I hope that’s not literal, I *really* don’t want to read an actual piece of…
JESSIE: *Please*. Stop. There.

>but I decided to get another opinion.

JESSIE: *cracks knuckles* Well, here it comes!

>I was written at midnight, and I've got the flu, or something,

ALL: Aww!
AOI: If I wasn’t a fictional character, I’d send chocolates. Erm, but I am. But the thought was there.

>so it might not make sense. It was a writers block breaker, that's my only excuse. Author's Notes >2: I'm so sorry you have to read this...

SPIKE: *tearfully* We’re sorry too!
JESSIE: Come off it, it might be good.
CAT: If Jessibelle got it? Not likely.

>Feedback: Feel free to send death threats, letterbombs, or howlers. (Starla@B...) Dedication: I >can't bring myself to associate anybody else's name to this fic.

AOI: Dedicate it to Stalin, then, he won’t mind.

>*****

JESSIE: Lookit! Snowflakes!
CAT: No way! Those are pretty stars in the sky!
AOI: Nuh-uh! Ninja Death Stars! *yells* Keeeooyyw! *punches the air a few times*

>It's amazing how quickly things can change so quickly, without warning.

AOI: *begins to sing `Warning` by Green Day, but shuts up when she sees Jessie’s face*

>24 hours ago, I believe that she loved me.

SPIKE: But 24 hours ago, you also believed that pebbles could be the other white meat, so…

>That we would be together for ever, and that she would hold me in my arms as I took my dying >breath. I can still barely believe that I'm facing a future without her.

SPIKE: Ah-hah! It’s that soldier boy, Riley, and Slayer’s left him! Hah!
JESSIE: Well done, Spike, but you only just got that?
SPIKE: Um.
AOI: Hell, I’m drunk, and I’m a few pages ahead of you there, Bob.
SPIKE: Spike.
AOI: Whatever.

>Funnily enough, it was the creep in the bar that made me see.

CAT: (as Riley) He handed me my glasses, I could see much better then.

>Willy the Snitch. Greasiest cockroach you'll ever meet,

JESSIE: I’m not sure you can make a claim like that, I did go to that cockroach greasing festival the other year. Those were some slippery roaches.
SPIKE: *leering* Feel free to grease my cockroach…
*all of the girls hit him with mallets*
SPIKE: Aoow, Fine, I got the point. And where the hell did you get those mallets from?

>but strangely sincere, almost innocent.
>
>He didn't know I was her boyfriend. I try to tell myself that.

JESSIE: I tell myself he thought I was her pet kitty, but I don’t believe me.

>The truth is, he knew. He just wanted me to know what I was up against. Buffy and Angel, >forbidden lovers, 'til the end.

CAT: (as Homer Simpson) Mmm, forbidden donut…
ALL: *drool*

>I went in there to ask him about Angel, after Buffy had run off to LA to save him from Faith. >That really should have been my first warning, but I honestly believed that she was paying off >some old debt to him.
>
>"My buddy Angel? What do you wanna know?" Willy asked. His eyes narrowed, "More >importantly, *why* do you wanna know? You're one of those Initiative guys, aren't you?"
>
>"I was," I said shortly, "Things change. I'm looking into the ally thing,"

CAT: The alley thing?
JESSIE: I thought Faith was the `Alley Thing.` Back-alleys, at least…
AOI: Me-ow!

>I lied, "There's going to be some people sniffing around after me now that I've gone AWOL, if >you know what I mean." That part, at least, was true.
>
>"Yeah?" Willy looked suspicious, but he didn't call me on my fib.

JESSIE: Tut-tut-tut, Riley’s been fibbing!
ALL: Ooooh!
AOI: Oo’s a nawty boy, den?

>"What's the information worth to you, my friend?" I pulled a $2O

CAT: Is that one of those new smilies?
AOI: Aye, it’s a… yelling large-nosed man with broken sunglasses.

>out of my wallet, having been expecting the need for some 'motivation', and slid it across the bar >towards him.
>
>He looked down at it, unimpressed.

JESSIE: (as Willy) Your sliding skills need some work. And you could’ve got a cleaner $20.

>He angled his brow,

AOI: (as Willy) Got a spirit level? I have this feeling that my brow is a little slopey…

"Man, if the Slayer finds out I've been spilling the dirt on Angel, my ass is as >good as kicked."
>
>"The Slayer?" I repeated casually, "Why?" "She and Angel, they were a hot item," He said, >picking up his rag and wiping down the bar, "Used to come in here together, look'n for some >information. I was all to happy to oblige...wouldn't wanna deny those two anything, between the >two of them, they could probably take out me and all my customers without too much effort. >Deadly duo, we used to call them..."

SPIKE: And here’s me calling them `Dumb and Dumber.` Silly me.

>
>I looked at him sceptically.
>
>"Ok, so no-one called them that. But they could have, that's the main point."
>
>"So what happened?" I asked, dropping all pretense of being interested in Angel strictly in a >business sense.

SPIKE: (as Riley) I don’t want to know you strictly in a business sense, Mr Angel. Grrowl…
AOI: Eeew, I’m close to throwing up already, that doesn’t help.

>"What didn't happen?" Willy said, emphasizing his statement with a snap of his polishing cloth.

CAT: (as Willy) Ow. What the hell did I do that for…?

>"Those two are angst magnets,

CAT: (as Willy) And you’re a refrigerator magnet, it would never work out.

>I tell you. If there's a possibility for angst and pain in any situation, it happens to them."

SPIKE: (as Willy) They once tried to change a lightbulb, and they had a huge row. People were killed, cities were destroyed, all because Buffy wanted the rose tint and Angel wanted the peach tint…

>"So it was an unhappy relationship," I said, "and she decided that she couldn't go through that >anymore, that it wasn't worth it?"
>
>"*He* decided," Willy corrected, "He didn't want her to suffer that anymore. Wanted her to >forget about him, find some nice, normal boy, who could give her everrything that Angel never >could,

AOI: Even an extra `R` in `everything`…
JESSIE: Low kick, that…
AOI: *shamed* Sorry. I’m still half drunk, grammar riffs are all I can do.

>even though they both knew she'd never *really* love the poor fool." Willy shook his head, "The >Slayer's gone down since then, I tell you. I've seen her, moping through her patrol, stumbling >blindly into

JESSIE: Lamp posts?
CAT: Greyhounds?
AOI: Artichokes?
SPIKE: Clouds of toxic gas?

>fights.

SPIKE: Damn.

>I've seen the demons coming in here, who've gotten away from her. That *never* happened, >before. She and Angel , they rarely lost a single one. Her pain is great for my business, you >know, but it doesn't make me feel better. I liked them."
>
>It was like being dunked in ice water. I was so cold, it hurt, and I felt like I couldn't move. I was >being dragged under, I couldn't breathe, let me breathe-

SPIKE: No, don’t, please don’t let him breathe…
CAT: Actually, this is rather sweet and sad…
JESSIE: Yeah… *sniff* Poor Riley, he really loved Buffy… *sobs*
AOI: It may be the drink talking, but I think I’m going to cry.

>It was as if I'd known for a long time, but I know I hadn't. I just liked to think that I wasn't really >foolish enough to believe the lies in her eyes, her touch. All I could think, was that now I knew. >I wasn't in the dark, as I'd always been.

JESSIE: *sniffle*
CAT: *sobs*
AOI: *wails*
SPIKE: Bloody hell…

>
>The calm, and then the feeling that I was falling. My life had just been put through the >woodchipper.

AOI: *stops crying* Actually, it would be interesting to see what would happen if Riley himself was put through a woodchipper.
JESSIE: *also stops* Oooh, neat. It would rain guts.
CAT: *continues to wail*
SPIKE: JESSIE: *also stops* Oooh, neat. It would rain guts.
CAT: *continues to wail*
SPIKE: You two got over that quickly.
AOI: I have the attention span of a herring when I’m drunk. Hey, lookit, my watch glows in the dark! *clicks watch button repeatedly*
JESSIE: *sigh*
AOI: And there’s a shadow over there that looks like Freakazoid! Wowee! *dashes off*
SPIKE: Remind me to never let her anywhere near booze again.
AOI: *returns* What’d I miss?

>Everything I'd ever believed in had been taken away from me in just a day.

SPIKE: Just a day? I could’ve done it in three hours if you’d asked me nicely.

>My work, my friends, my love. What was left for me? I no longer knew where I belonged,

CAT: A nunnery.

>where I as supposed to be on this earth,

JESSIE: Tibet.

>and what I was supposed to do when I got there.

SPIKE: Hunt Llamas while wearing a habit.

>For the first time in my life, I didn't have someone telling me where to be, what to be, who to be. >It was sort of nice. I could do whatever I wanted, now.

AOI: (as Riley) Finally I can live out my dream of becoming the fifth Spice Girl!

>
>And I would, even if it was without her. I knew it had to be. It was only a matter of time, really. >Even if she doesn't go back to him, she'll wake up to the fact that I'm not the one sooner or later. >I know her well enough to know that she wouldn't be able to live in a loveless relationship

CAT: *cries quietly again* Poor Riley… *wails loudly*
AOI: Wouldn’t have thought you could live *in* anything but a house…
ALL: *groan*
JESSIE: You’re really off your game today.
AOI: It’s the giddiness… Ooo, lookit, a butterfly! *runs off again*
SPIKE: Actually, I could always imagine Slayer in a trailer. Funny, that.

>forever. She'd break up with me eventually, and it would hurt for both of us, but we'd be better >for it.
>
>I'll go on without her, and I'll find my own purpose. Alone.

JESSIE: (as Riley) But not without Mr Wuggles the teddybear…
CAT: *wails even louder*

>Strange, how quickly things can change.
>THE END OF THIS EL CRAPPO FIC.

>Copyright © EL CRAPPO 2000

SPIKE: Wow, I’m sorry they copyrighted `El Crappo`, I was about to use that name for my chocolate bar company.
AOI: *returning* It was just a moth. Tsch.
CAT: *snif*
JESSIE: The indicator light thing is off, we can go… come on, I wanna play with my Arcanine!
AOI: Yeah, we have a bad hosting segment to get back to.

***All stand to leave. Aoi dashes off after seeing something shiny, Spike follows her holding something heavy to hit her with. Jessie helps Cat out, who’s still crying about Riley.***

Jessibelle picked up the ringing cell phone with a smile. It was Giovanni, she knew that, and she could tell him what a good job she did in getting rid of all of the Pokémon that were cluttering up the place. And he’d be sure to thank her for getting rid of all of that nasty alcohol that was in the funny locked trunk… fancy, she had to spend ages picking that lock just for him.
At least the Persian grinned, perhaps Gio would be getting back sooner than he had planned.


Baaah, the hosting parts sucked so much… I couldn’t even be doing with writing an ending, I’m not in the happiest of happy times right now. Life is doing the nasty thing right now. Stuff’ll pick up soon, and I’ll be rambling about greyhounds with a smile on my face again, unless I get no fic to MiSTie, which is where you lovely peeps come in… as ever, send me any type of fic, Anime, cartoon, Buffy, Xena, whatever you like. dittoblue30@yahoo.co.uk, as ever. Sh’later!
