Faith stared at the corpses, waiting for just one of them to start moving again, wondering if she could get away with decking a human, when he chose to speak. “It's a shame Ripper wasn't here. Ripper always adored the classics.”

Aidan was between them before Faith could hit Ethan. “You hadn't heard?” Faith gave Aidan a sharp look. He was speaking gently to this asshole?

Ethan raised an arm against the sunlight. “No.”

“Rupert Giles is dead.”

Ethan looked as pale as the zombies had the night before. Maybe she didn't need to punch him.

He doesn't know how to make himself loveable, that's for sure. ;-)

Poor Ethan, not getting the love! ;-)

You might see more of this series soon. After writing this I went back to take a look and I'm further along with the first draft of the next story than I'd realized.

Almost feel sorry for Ethan. Almost.

I guess that's the best I can expect, given that it is Ethan. Mwah-ha-ha. ;-)
