*Buffy landed with an "oof!" on top of Spike, and hurriedly scrambled off. He was kind of hot, she had to admit, but not when he was all crazy.
And not when they'd dropped into... wherever they were.*
"Hey," *she said.* "It's dark."
*Which was, you know, stupid. Because they'd fallen in a hole.*

((Win.))
*Spike sat up, unfazed.*
"Yes. It always is. Here."
*He sighed heavily.*
"I know you hate it here."

*Buffy rolled her eyes, despite the dark. Maybe Spike could see better.*
"What, you mean in the ground? Cryptic, much?"

"In the dark."
*Spike stood, offering a sad shrug.*
"My dark. You tell me that it's cold and that you don't belong. And then I..."
*He swallowed and turned away.*

"You can't own the dark, Spike," *she said, exasperated.* "Why does every guy I sleep with go crazy? Is it me?"

*Spike smiled and caressed her cheek.*
"It was always you. The girl. The only. There could never be anyone but you."

*Buffy flinched away.*
"Um... that's nice. Except for your crazy ex. Exes excuse me. And anyway, what does that have to with us being in a hole or you being nuts?"

*Angel oofs too.*
"Oh great."
*sees Spike. But not Buffy.*
"No really, great. Because my day couldn't get any better."

*Buffy heard his voice before she saw him. Because, remember, it was dark.*
"Angel?" *she called tremulously.*

"Buffy."
*He doesn't really sound so happy about that.*
*turns on Spike*
"What did you do now?"

*Spike rolled his eyes, going all oldskool.*
"Yeah...big bad Angel, here to save the girl. What he always does, eh?"

"He fell in a hole," *Buffy said.* "Just like I did. What are you doing here? There's no point in talking to Spike--he's all cuckoo cloud land or whatever Giles says."

*Spike shrugged defensively.*
"Oh, and Angel's always havin' of the sane bits."
*He frowned.*
"Least I was never a puppet."

"Is it ever any point in talking to him?"
*glares. Just for the sake of glaring.*
"I was fighting some--I was in an alley. Like always. And then things went . . . This is strangely surreal."
*pause*
"Have you ever heard of something called Orpheus?"

*Puppet? Was that a metaphor?*
"Orpheus. Wasn't that the guy from The Matrix? With the red pill and stuff?"
