video ↯ the third ⇒ here comes the night time

[ spike is bustling around his kitchen, tea and toast in the making. he pulls a slice out of the toaster and starts smearing jam on. ]

It's been a little while, you lot. Or, well, guess I saw most of you on the train home. But now there's new folks and old folks coming back and the like. Par for the beginning of the month, or whatever frame of time it is they use here.

[ now starting in on the second and a thoughtful look crosses over his features. ] I would say this place gets less agonizing the longer I'm here, but I think I know better than to jynx it by now...

[ the kettle goes off, startling him into spinning too quick and knocking the toast off the counter - jam side down. ] Oh come on!

Bloody hell. Where was I? Oh, yeah.

Sober two days, you bunch of bastards. Hope you're happy.

[ the feed is about to go out but a few muffled words make it through as he's cleaning up the jam: ] How did hair get in this? Ugh. Crooks.

[ - and zamo. ]

Guess I should've told you, huh. Oh well, now you know.

I would have liked to know earlier. It's fascinating. But, yes, I do.

Sorry about that, then. Get so used to most people thinking it's a delusion. [ not that spike could blame them, but still. ]

Or that you've been brainwashed or something?

Exactly. See, knew you'd get it.

People do that with things they don't really comprehend. Terrible habit.

Makes for some great stories, though.

[ Blink. ]

Does it?

Well, yeah. I mean who else gets to travel with a bunch of interdimensional spacebugs on a mission to get their ship back.

Aha. Yes. Quite the story in itself, that.

Have you ever met Dracula, Doc? [ he's curious!!!!!!!! with how much the doctor gets around. ]

Vlad the Impaler? Yeah, I have. Also Dracula the vampire! Although he was as much of a creation of someone's mind as the book about him.

He owes me eleven quid. And there's some controversy that Drac ever was Vlad.

Mm? Tell me about your Dracula, then.

Oy. Don't call him my Dracula. Don't want anything to do with that tosser. [ he makes a face. ]

He uses this thing called thrall, you've probably seen it in the movies. That and turning into bats and wolves and disappearing in a poof of smoke -- bloody drama queen.

[ He holds up his hands. ]

Just for ease's sake, Spike. I only mean he belongs to your reality. He can really do all that? Can't blame him for liking the drama. If I could turn into bats and disappear in a poof of smoke I probably would too.

It's tacky though. [ because peroxide hair and a long leather coat is so sophisticated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ] You wouldn't understand. It's a vamp-etiquette thing.

Never cared for etiquette. Am I to take it you're a vampire, then?

[ oh... that's right. he'd lost the doctor before everything went down in mirrorverse. ] Not here, am I?

But yeah. Normally.

[ Shrug. ]

I dunno. I've never cared for etiquette anyway. I'd do that even if I was a vampire.

Fair enough. Etiquette's bloody overrated anyway. But still, you don't have like, a Time Lord code of conduct wrapped up somewhere?

Oh, yeah, loads. Never cared for them.

[ He pauses, lifts a hand to point at the screen and gapes for a moment. Hang on. ]

Didn't you tell me about the vampire bit earlier?

You know something, I might've done. It's hard to keep track around here.

I think you did. Back when we got our abilities back. Been a while for me.
