Title: Ulysses Returned
For: 1. tamingthemuse prompt: “castaway” (bear with me; I’ll get to it!) and spikes_heart’s challenge “Spike/Buffy, classical music concert, delight!” I imagine this came out a little darker than you wanted… And it certainly wasn’t a 15 minute fic! But I hope you like it.
Rating: PG
Pairing: Spike/Buffy, post-season 7.
Warnings: possibly pretentious!
Word count: 1000ish
Teaser: Spike stood at the harbour, staring out over the water. The tip of his cigarette glinted in the dark. The horizon still held a fading gleam of light, and the sea rippled out purple-black in front of it. Homer’s wine-dark sea, Spike thought, and remembered the smell of chalk and slate and ink as he leaned over his school desk, laboriously translating Greek. But of course, this was Virgil’s country, not Homer’s… Although Spike did feel a little like Odysseus, returning after a long voyage. Home. To her.
