Stolen from euro_fics. If you have one civil servant sitting at one computer reading LJ entries at random, you will get Shakespeare. :-)

You can blame jwaneeta for the gassed canaries analogy.

Spike and Buffy
by William Shakespeare

Enter Spike

Buffy appears above at a window

Spike:
But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks?
It is the stake, and Buffy is the dust bunny.
Arise, fresh dust bunny, and kiss the big bed.
See, how she leans her chest upon her head!
O, that I were a glove upon that head,
That I might touch that chest!

Buffy:
O Spike, Spike! wherefore art thou Spike?
What's in a name? That which we call a hand
By any other name would smell as hairy
Dost thou love me? I know thou wilt say "like a gassed canary flopping on the floor"
And I will take thy word; yet if thou swear'st,
Thou mayst prove comely.

Spike:
Lady, by yonder big bed I swear
That tips under the bed the dark fruitcake--

Buffy:
O, swear not by the bed, the iridescent bed,
That slowly changes in its hellish orb,
Lest that thy love prove likewise hellish.
Sweet, shiny night! A thousand times shiny night!
Parting is such slinky sorrow,
That I shall say shiny night till it be morrow.

Exit above

Spike:
Sleep dwell upon thy chest, peace in thy head!
Would I were sleep and peace, so lazily to rest!
happily will I to my fresh hand's cell,
Its help to kiss, and my hairy hand to tell.

[Parting is such slinky sorrow. Heh.]

Heh - is slinky sorrow the kind where you dolefully fall downstairs one step at a time?

[desoto-hia873.livejournal.com]

It really is. :-)

If it isn't, it should be!

Is that some weird Shakes-term for wanking? Spike off to go make his hand hairy? I think so! SMUT!!!
*snort*

BTW, I have to pause from my frantic posting of my latest opus to thank you again for being such a kick-ass beta. You catch the good stuff and were really helpful in cleaing out the last of the cluttery adverbs and adjectives. Perfect beta work, darling. I WUV OOOO. Anything I can do for you? Any favors? I can screen cap! I make good Indian food.

Heee!

I wuv ooo too. :-) I can't eat Indian food, I'm afraid - I react strangely (and not in a good way) to one of the spices. I'm not sure which one, though I suspect cardamom. And fresh mint makes me feel like I can't breathe, although mint in candies and whatnot is fine.

Aren't you glad to know all that?

You do good screencaps. And I snag them. Please to continue.

I haven't even gotten to S6 yet in my capping crusade. I've done half of AtS S5 and some of S7. So as soon as I get a free sec, I'll do more. It's FUN.
