Drabble: Synchronized Moves

I said I would post everything I've written on my LJ bit by bit, so here is the next piece

I don't keep up with almost any group on LJ anymore, just checking some of my friends, so I hadn't read this one before. This is such a central part of their relationship: the warrior part. The equal footing back to back understanding between them. The violent, powerful, synchronised dance.

You know what is kind of funny? We only rarely saw them fight togehter in the show, and never (I think) explicitly these two. It's mostly something we asume - their deep understanding of each other showing in something they have in common and that is indeed a central part in both of them, their fighting skills. But it is so fitting to picture them like that, isn't it? So much so that it instantly came to my mind when I read the prompt at Fag Ends that originally belonged to the week's theme 'ice-skating' :)

We didn't see them fight together, on the same side, many times - but on the other hand, the times Buffy emphasizes his value to her as a warrior, she really puts weight behind her words.

Oh, I really don't disagree. It's obvious how much Buffy always valued Spike's fighting skills.

Ooh!
Nicely written.

Thank you :)

Oh, I remember that one! I enjoyed reading it again. I do love how well synchronized Buffy and Spike have always been, even back when they were still enemies.

I'm really happy that you took the time to read again and still like it :), but even commenting again - wow, thank you!
Ooops, I forgot to say - the fight with Angel and Spike in Lover's Walk has always been a highlight for me for exact that reason (plus - snarky Spangel :D)
