These are modified versions of the Drabbles I posted for this week's
open_on_sunday challenge - themed around "New Things".
---------------------------------------------------
Title: Excaliber
Characters: Angelus
Spoilers: BtVS 2.22 "Becoming, Part II"
Disclaimer: Property of Mutant Enemy
Theme: New
Sunnydale was still too small for fetish shops. Something he would clearly have had to rectify if he weren't otherwise planning to unleash Hell upon earth.
However, it did have a mega-warehouse hardware supply store. Barbed wire here, ropes there. Hammers, nails, and blades. Glass panes. Metal pipes. Torches. Classics, all. And then, his true destination.
Power tools.
More specifically, the Makita UC1000. Double insulated. Automatic steady bar oiling. Ergonomically designed for switch operation, even if he chose to wear gloves.
Angelus gazed lovingly upon the chainsaw, and saw that it was new. And it was good.
A.N.: Reference to the line: "the last time I tortured somebody, they didn't even have chainsaws."
---------------------------------------------------
Title: Who You Are
Characters: Buffy
Spoilers: BtVS 3.01 "Anne"
Disclaimer: Property of Mutant Enemy
Theme: New
The lash descends. A crack sounds. Flesh rends. The boy screams. The demon waits, pointedly.
"Your new name is Toby."
"I'm no one", the boy drones.
Anne, not-Anne steps forward. Sees the broken spirits. Sees the machinery of demoralization and prepares for her turn.
"Who are you."
Remembers other things she's seen. Remembers kids joking and laughing. Smiling and dancing. Throwing spitballs and passing notes while the substitute teacher tried to show movies in Mr. Jacobsen's History class.
Who are you?
"Who are you?" the Demon asks.
She smiles. "I'm Buffy the Vampire Slayer! And you are?"
A.N.: The italicized line is taken from the Alex Haley miniseries, "Roots".

Like them both, DL, but that first one just cracks me up.

Lord, I'm a sicko.
But you're right that he is such a guy in all incarnations. (even when wearing eyeliner) Which begs the question of how the hell did he produce such a girly son? I mean, really.

Boreanaz maybe, but not Angelus. Angelus never says "Woah" in an un-ironic fashion.

Sharon Jane Smith and Dana Evan love to write Teen or Adult Connor fics, and they always return to that in one way or another. Angel trying to get him to eat more, or cringing at Connor's hair. And we know Darla couldn't possibly be happy with his appearance.
