Cave In, Hand Over, Hang On
Angel lives and gives in, lives to give in, lives/gives with army ordinances/Lawsons, haunted hotels/ungratefuls. Angel put quarters in for Mandy but drank a man already dead instead.
Then there's Buffy, and Angel wants life again. But she rips his necklace off, quits, and that's the end of this . . . but for Xander at his door.
Then Angel puts hopes in some pool underground (for pennies: pounds), but Buffy's already dead. And Angel wants to drink her, too; give in, like Darla said . . . but for Xander on the floor, beside the dead.
Instead, Angel watches Xander bring him back to life.

On an unrelated note--I read "The Confessional" today in between having delirious fever dreams that I was in QAF and torturing myself watching "The Prom" and the Graduations.
It rocked my face. And I usually am wary of first person fic, but you made it smooth like a super-smooth thing, and really made me think about Faith.
Buffy: I want my life to be with you.
Angel: I don't.
Me and my friend (who owns Yummy Sushi PJs): Liar! Liar-pants! Liar-pants-face!

And am so flattered you read The Confessional! Thanks! I don't like first person either--in fact, I hate it, which is of course why I had to write it. I thought she would be just about the most impossible head to get inside of. Ha!
Buffy: I want my life to be with you.
Angel: I don't.
What I love about the wording there is he doesn't. He really doesn't. He want his life to be with her, but doesn't want her life to be with him, because he loves her THAT much. It's a bit of a deceptive (and cheesy) play on words on his part, but I love love love that it was written that way, and adore DB's delivery to death.
