Spike watched the girl run off. “Ya see, Xan? This is why vampires only step in to help within their Line, other vamps who have the same Sire. Anyone else, you can’t trust to have your back. You, on the other hand, go off and help random strangers. What’s it get you? Nothing, that’s what.”

Ducking under the demon’s claw, Xander called out, “Could use a little help here.”

Leaping off the tombstone, Spike took the demon out. “This totally proves my point. If you had just let the girl get killed, you’d be home safe and sound by now.”

If Xander didnt stop to save a random stranger than he wouldnt be our Xander shaped friend!

That's true enough, but that doesn't mean that Spike has to get it!

I start to wonder if I'm a horrible person when I think things like "Spike has a point..." Fortunately Xander balances him out :-). Very cute

Joss makes the same point, but subtly. Buffy had to work at that icky burger place, for example.

Uhm I guess I like Spike as a teacher:-))

I'm pretty sure this is a lesson that Xander won't learn though. ;-)

Spike's point of view made me smile.

Thanks, it's nice to know I helped put someone in a smiley mood!
