( They'd driven to the magic shop. Of course driving was faster, but that wasn't the real reason they'd taken the car. The things Angel had said he do if they left him behind, well, Willow hadn't even known you could do that with a leg, even if it was detached. )

( If there was anything Willow hated, it was being frozen in place as the big scary came at her with a weapon, and, okay, the woman, Ash, wasn't all that scary and she certainly wasn't very big, but she did have a sharp-looking dagger aimed straight at Willow's chest. “Have you really thought this whole stabbing idea through, because as a lifestyle choice, major carnage isn't as satisfying as you might think.” )

Sad That You Can't Hear
I posted a scene from a new work up at Summer of Giles. It's called "Sad That You Can't Hear" and the idea is that Rupert talks to Jenny after she's dead.

( One one side they had Mann's Chinese theater providing the most dramatic ritual backdrop ever. On the other side demon soldiers were clearing the street by chopping axes into cars. “So,” Willow said, “this is pretty much the crankiest of all crank calls ever, right? I mean dialing into a dimension to end all the dimensions, that's definitely not of the good.” )

( The insectoid guards had led them through so many tunnels that Willow had stopped worrying about what they'd find at the end. Spike's arm around her waist was warm, warmer than she'd expected. Granted, he was human now, but where he touched her was a lot more tingly than she'd thought it would be. It felt sort of nice actually. If they were going to die, at least she'd have a good memory to carry with her, but of course they weren't going to die because being defeated here would mean a big old apocalypse and she just didn't let that kind of thing happen even if she didn't know how she and Spike were going to stop it. She didn't know yet, which is why she and Spike were touching, pretending she was more hurt than she actually was so the demons would underestimate her and leave an opening for her to work with. Not that they had gotten careless. Yet. )

( Big Rico had refused to join them at the Sunnydale crater. “I have a business to run.” Mona, who'd never been afraid of anything as far as Millay could tell, had begged off as well citing some kind of an attack. William was still missing and yet they couldn't be bothered. )

As far as Willow could tell, they were sort of your everyday go-to sword, or a Slayer's version of that anyway, swords with slightly curved single edge. “At least we've got our choice of weapons.” )

I was looking for a pseudo-trailer. If I remember correctly it was a tv series about a young Ripper and his friends. Didn't find it but stumbled across this instead.
