Or is it that both of us silently asked for there to be just the one room? Because... hello. Interesting.
This line is great, because although I suspect it is Buffy thinking it, it could be Spike, or, even more likely, both of them wondering the same thing.
Next time you die, call me after. ‘Kay?
*snerk* Now, that is totally Buffy. Totally happy Buffy. I like it when she revels in the absurdity of her life.
I really felt for Mattie. All that maturity, without the crazy misspent youth to balance it. And, no outlet for her urges for companionship. The real horror of this, if Spike hadn't figured it all out, would have been for Mattie to be stuck in a house surrounded by cooing lovebirds. One extra-bitter Slayer, coming right up!
I love the W&H connection in this, and how it all comes down to a bureaucratic screw up, which is always the harder for Buffy to deal with than the normal demonic crap. So: success! But...
Not overwhelmingly thrilled vampire.
“Promise you’ll get to beat on big nasty demons next time?” That did the trick.

Yes, that would do it. Our Man of Action.
Wonderful contribution, darling!
