I’m not alive,” he answered with a little smile and she gritted her teeth. He thought he was so cute
great line!! LOL!!
Summary: "hey listen up you wankers---you can listen to this tale and learn something or you can turn your tweedy noses up in the air because the story mentions using a bit of the old maryjane... you can learn some about vamps and slayer history, and something about lies your elders told ya...and how the best slayer there ever was found her power and her way, as well as a little of her own history"
What happens when Buffy goes to a party and tries smoking pot? How will she react to it and how will it affect her slayer senses? And what will Spike say when he finds the stoned Slayer?
Set in an alternative season 5 universe where Riley left but Joyce is alive and kicking and there is no Glory.
*warning: recreational drug usage*
Nominated for Insiders' Tip at the Cradle of Humanity Awards round 2! Thank you very much! :)

great line!! Tee hee!!
Author's Response: Hey , I am glad you like it!
Summary: Spike’s gone missing. Again. What is his girlfriend Buffy to do but to bring him back? It is a rather sad one-shot that will be part of a longer adventure story waiting to be written. Set somewhere in the sixth season but it’s slightly AU.

I've always just felt so bad for him with regards to the soul. That so didn't work out how he hoped. :(
