Drabble: Cave In, Hand Over, Hang On

Title: Cave In, Hand Over, Hang On
Length: I may have cheated a bit. But 100 words, my way; I DID IT AGAIN!
Rating: G! again!
Prompt: for [livejournal.com profile] semby. Angel and Xander.
A/N: Xander saves Angel.
edited because I fucked up.



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.

Just gorgeous. Angel put quarters in for Mandy but drank a man already dead instead. I want to use words this way, I want to be able to pay attention to the sounds not just the meanings, and you give me hope. =)

Aww! I read this comment and melted a little. You really know how to make a girl feel good :o)

And I'm glad you liked that line. It took a whole lot of cutting to fit the word limit, but I was rather pleased with the result.

I just did my first two drabbles ever (100 word exactly). I don't know how I did, but I do know it's hard!

Not half so poetical as you, though.
