I loved your Buffy history.
I'm so glad I wrote it down when I did, since lots of it has now been lost in the mists of time and when I re-read it myself I go 'Oh yeah, that was a thing...'

And then in Lovers Walk, Spike said " I haven't had a woman in weeks" and went into vamp face. That's when it clicked for me.
Mmmm. It's always Spike isn't it? ;)
