disclaimer: Characters not mine, will never be mine, and I'm not looking to make money off writing about this fine series created by Joss Whedon and belonging to Mutant Enemy.

Lyrics taken from The Damned's "Billy Bad Breaks"; for the vague song reference on the jukebox, I had Leonard Cohen's "The Future" in mind. The song plays over the credits of "Natural Born Killers".

Though this fic contains a bit of Spike/Faith UST, I don't plan for it to be resolved. At the end of the day, this is a Spuffy ship fic. Yes, I believe Spike loves Buffy very much, but a soul doesn't stop him from some relatively harmless flirting. Music has played a huge part in the conception of this fic, so there'll probably be a lot of song and lyric references.

The plot so far is kind of...meandering in my head. A good kind of meandering, though. Promise. I'm much more into exploring characters and various degrees of relationships than constructing a super tight-ass plotline. In case I didn't mention it before, I am not following the post-series comics as canon.
