agilebritBut it came out a bit longer than that. I'm usually a stickler for hitting a hundred words exactly, but I just couldn't for this, and honestly? Not very upset about it. I'll do one that fits the length parameters too, but I liked how this came out.
Have I said lately how much I missed Lilah? No? Damb, I missed her. She should totally have been part of Season Five.

tv100's "Final Goodbye" challenge.
Notes: Takes place right before Wes leaves his apartment to face Cyvus Vail in Angel 5:22 "Not Fade Away."
He should have been startled by the apparition in his apartment, but he found it strangely comforting instead. "Hello, Wesley," she said. "You didn't think you could get rid of me that easily, did you?"
"No, Lilah. I suppose cutting your head off, under the circumstances, wasn't really very effective, was it?"
A little smile tugged at her lips. "Really kinda wasn't."
"What are you doing here? If it's about Fred..."
Lilah put two fingers to Wesley's lips. "Shh, lover. I'm not here to bust your chops over the Texas Twig. I'm a realist; I always knew I was a poor second."
"She's gone now. Is that why you came? To get me back?"
"To say goodbye, actually. You're going someplace I'll never be allowed to enter. She wins."
"How does she win?" he said hopelessly. "Her soul was destroyed in the fires of Illyria's resurrection."
"You people always were gullible," she answered, shaking her head. "This is the team that thwarted us all these years? I'm completely embarrassed."
Hope dawned for him. "Of course," he breathed. Of course Sparrow had lied to them. If they thought Fred's soul was beyond their power to retrieve, they wouldn't try. Then: "You shouldn't be here. You'll get in trouble. The Senior Partners--"
She smirked and shrugged. "What are they going to do? Send me to Hell? For what it's worth, I'm glad we lost. Well. Wish I could say ‘See you around,' but that's not happening. So I'll just say ‘Goodbye' and leave you with this." She kissed him gently on the lips, mouthed "I loved you," and disappeared.
"Goodbye, Lilah," he whispered. "I loved you too."

Hm. Food probably helps the brain cells, and if I eat, maybe I can get this other drabble out of the way, free up a brain cell, and figure out what to do on the "Spike's corporeality was only temporary" fic...
