Giles frowned at the contents of the pitcher before them.

"No disrespect to your mother, Spike, but are you sure you have the ingredients right? It looks gloopy. Is it supposed to be that colour? It looks positively anemic."

"Well if you care to open a vein, Watcher, we could bring the colour right back to its cheeks."

"I hardly believe that was in your mother's original recipe."

"Probably not," Spike agreed. "What say we add a quart of scotch?"

"I'd say it was a waste of good scotch. How about some bourbon?"

Spike grinned.

"Now that's the festive spirit!"

“Where are you?”

 

Buffy looked around, flanked by tall hedges and nothing but a lane and a half wide road ahead of and behind her. Shaking her head, she huffed, “I have no idea. I followed the signs but… what is it with the road system here?”

 

“You have to give me something to go on if I am to bring you petrol.”

 

“Gas, Giles! Gas!”

 

“You’re in my country now, and we say petrol. PE-TROL. Say it with me,” he teased over the phone.

 

“Just help me figure out where I am,” she laughed. “It’s starting to snow.”
