“This one… cannot be burnt. There’s no humanity in him.”
The Judge’s pronouncement throws Spike’s whole world off kilter. Angelus is back, strolling in like he owns the bloody place, all arrogance and a lascivious smirk as his gaze falls on Drusilla. Everything’s back to how it was before he was cursed with the restoration of his human soul, and it’s great, really it is. A family reunion! They’re all together again, except for Darla, and it’s perfect!
At least, Spike tries to make himself believe it is, he’s dreamed of this day forever, but now it’s finally here, he’s starting to realise it might not be what he wants after all. Drusilla is beyond happy, and the way she’s acting towards Angelus, all flirtatious and coy, turns his stomach. Drusilla is his, everything he’s done has been for her, to care for her, restore her strength, give her anything she could possibly wish for. He’s even willing to destroy the world for her, a world he personally would prefer to keep ticking along just as it is. But now…
Angelus is here, and Spike can already feel himself being pushed to one side, all because he’s stuck in this bloody wheelchair while he heals. He can’t run with Drusilla, hunt with her, satisfy her other appetites, but Angelus can, and is clearly more than willing to. The worst part is, there’s nothing Spike can do about it, all he can do is sit here spinning his wheels while Angelus steals Drusilla away from him, and he hates it. If he could get out of his chair right now, he might be tempted to stake Angelus himself.
Affection and jealousy. Yeah, Big Blue was right. Dru is Spike’s whole world; if he loses her, his un-life won’t be worth living.
The End
