Title: Xandercles the Mighty: Chapter Twenty-Seven - Interlude Two
Fandom: Buffy, the Vampire Slayer
Author: [info]dustandroses
Betas:  ozsaur and theladymerlin
Pairing: Spike/Xander preslash
Rating: current chapter PG13

Prompt Notes: Inspiration for this chapter taken from [info]tamingthemuse prompt #322: That which does not kill us makes us old and cranky before our time
Notes:  Since the last Interlude went over so well, I thought I'd try it again.  Thanks, as usual, for Ozsaur's vision of this scene, which I, of course, twisted to suit my own needs.  But if not for the image she placed in my mind, this chapter would never have happened.
