[myfeetshowit.livejournal.com]

TITLE: The Sorrowful Tale of Miss Kitty Fantastico - Ch.16: by myfeetshowit
Characters: Spike,Dawn,Clem
Summary: Buffy is dead and Dawn’s fifteenth birthday is coming up. A penniless Spike wants to get her the greatest present ever. It proves to be harder than he expected. He encounters kittens, and Clem and nosehairs and learns some valuable lessons about life.
Rating: PG for swearing
Warnings/Notes: A Sunnydale version of a Victorian Morality Play. Inspired by Kipling’s ‘Just So’ stories and served with a side dish of Dr. Seuss. A mixture of humor, angst, and reflection upon the foibles of a vampire who wants to be a good man.

For those of you who are interested in how an author's mind works, I wrote a bit about the metaphors I had in mind while I wrote this story. I won't post it since the community is about story, but it can be found here.

I hope you all had a great Valentine's Day!

Different Needs


Part One:



Enough! No more!

His interaction with Cordelia this morning had finally pushed him to find a solution to his suffering. He couldn't take it anymore. He couldn't be the 'useless' member in this team. Yesterday was bad enough with Buffy trying to find the nicest way to send him home without hurting his precious feelings. But having Cordelia confront him about his worthlessness in front of his friends was just too much for him to handle, especially with his friends trying to tell him otherwise without denying Cordelia's accusations.

Okay, he was done with this. This time he had to take this issue more seriously. It wasn't like Cordelia was wrong. He knew he was the least useful member in the group. Everyone had a specialty of their own. Buffy was the slayer, Giles was the one with the source of knowledge, Angel was the muscles, and Willow was the hacker and the wanna-be-witch. Oz, even though he matched his normalness when he wasn't a werewolf, was much smarter and a better fighter than him.

He had to do something about this.

Now.

PICK UP THE PHONE!

He stood in the cool of the back room, where the sun never reached until evening. The tiled floor was cold under his feet but the sweat on his face was hot. He was staring down at the little glass window on the telephone. It showed eleven messages. He hadn’t answered one,

No, that was a lie, of course. He’d listened to the first one, let the grief roll over him and away. But he didn’t want to hear her voice again: telling, explaining, crying, pleading, going from sad to angry with thin overtones of disgust.

If he listened to the calls he would have to act: fly back, be Dad to Dawn, whom he loved but didn’t feel he really knew and to his Buffy who’d been so helpless, sweet and funny until at fifteen, suddenly, she wasn’t anymore.
