Well, it's been awhile...

But, unfortunately, my YGtS fic has come to a complete and total STOP. Do not pass Go, do not collect $200. So, I'm drabbling to see if I can jump-start myself.

"What's the matter, Bluebird? Someone repot your favorite fern?" Spike asked.

Illyria regarded him sourly. "Wesley referred to me as an 'abominable azure aberration.' My presence, he said, is unnatural and unhealthy and not to be borne."

"Get your feelings hurt, then?"

"I have no regard for the drunken ramblings of an insect such as he."

Her expression told him otherwise. He winked, stepped close to her, and whispered in her ear. "Well, luv, I think you're a splendid sapphire stunner, myself."

Her eyes followed him as he walked away. Yes. She definitely wanted to keep Spike as her pet.

Ahh the poet, and his alliteration, to the rescue. Gave me giggles! Great Illyria voice!

Oh, pretty drabble! *pets it* Splendid sapphire stunner...I love alliteration. I want Spike as my pet, too. Mwaha.

I think we *all* want to keep Spike as our pet. LOL
