Hangover

[deird_lj]

Here's a drabble I wrote for still_grrr, about what happened in Band Candy...




Hangover

Giles wakes up with a headache, and a t-shirt that smells of cigarette smoke.

What did I…?

Then he remembers — Ethan, chocolate, shoplifting, Joyce, police car, handcuffs…

Oh dear.

* * *

Joyce wakes up from a dream of a hunky guy with a gun and a reckless grin, the two of them taking the town by storm… and tries to convince herself she’s much more embarrassed about it than she actually feels.

* * *

Snyder wakes up, remembers, and instantly resolves to give detention to the next fifty students he sees.

* * *

Ethan doesn’t sleep that night. He just counts his profit, and leaves smiling.

I don't get it. But I loved reading it.

...and, ENTIRELY off-topic, I want you to bring to mind the episode of 'Burn Notice' I made you watch, with especial focus on the character 'Sam', and then cast your memory back to your 'Xena' days until the two connect in an enlightening way...

Glad you liked reading it even though you didn't understand it!
(And as a rough summary: all the adults were eating chocolate that made them act like teenagers. Except Ethan, who was selling it.)



And yes! Isn't he awesome!
