Mischief 23: Retaliation

Retaliationby Red Wolf

Xander clenched the table so hard Anya made a note to check for indents later.

"I'm going to kill them."

Anya sighed. "You're being melodramatic."

"Not helping here, An."

"You came in from work in a foul mood, yelled at me, nearly hit Spike and spoke to Dawn like she was a child. That kind of behaviour kept me in work for centuries, be thankful you got off so lightly."

Xander ran a hand over the stubble that remained of his hair.

"Besides, it's your own fault for falling asleep when you should have been helping me in the store."

Aaaaah! ::collapses in a pile of hysterical laughter:: As many of your stories as I've read, I should have seen this coming when that challenge went up! — via LiveJournal — posted by IrishVampire13 at 17.01.2005 10:11 AEST | #

I've already done Angel having a bad hair day, so Mischief!verse was my fall back position — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 17.01.2005 10:12 AEST | #

That's right, Anya! You tell him! :)

Love this verse!! — via LiveJournal — posted by Jessica at 17.01.2005 10:13 AEST | #

Xander never was quick to learn — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 17.01.2005 10:13 AEST | #

Hee! I loved this! Xander is a naughty boy to think he can fool the likes of Anya! Good on her! — via LiveJournal — posted by dawnie1970 at 17.01.2005 10:14 AEST | #

Anya didn't do it, but she certainly didn't stop those who did. I wouldn't be surprised if she made sure Xander didn't wake up mid-shearing. Although half a shaved head is funnier still — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 17.01.2005 10:14 AEST | #

half! ROFL — via LiveJournal — posted by dawnie1970 at 17.01.2005 10:15 AEST | #

Xander. Poor sucker. LOL — via LiveJournal — posted by Funkparadise at 17.01.2005 10:16 AEST | #

Xander gets what he deserves — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 17.01.2005 10:17 AEST | #

Hee! And the Xander!Abuse continues. Spike and Dawn are very resourceful. Very cute. :-) — via LiveJournal — posted by Anne at 17.01.2005 10:17 AEST | #

Xander does seem slow to learn — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 17.01.2005 10:19 AEST | #

Fabulous! ::laughs at Xander:: — via LiveJournal — posted by semby at 17.01.2005 10:19 AEST | #

Laughing at Xander is always good — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 17.01.2005 10:20 AEST | #

Somehow I suspected something like this would happen... though I was thinking purple, with lime-green streaks, or something. Xander is lucky he got off with just a buzz! — via LiveJournal — posted by Willa at 17.01.2005 10:20 AEST | #

Well, I didn't say that he got his entire head shaved — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 17.01.2005 10:21 AEST | #

::howls in laughter:: Too good. And Anya's patronising voice is perfect for the occasion. ::ggg:: — via LiveJournal — posted by Leni at 17.01.2005 10:22 AEST | #

Anya's not so much patronising as pointing out facts. Xander was always the patronising one — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 17.01.2005 10:22 AEST | #

Hahahaha! Perfect payback! Excellent drabble! — via LiveJournal — posted by Kristen at 17.01.2005 10:23 AEST | #

Thank you — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 17.01.2005 10:23 AEST | #

:-D Nice! — via LiveJournal — posted by shepenwepet at 17.01.2005 10:24 AEST | #

Thanks — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 17.01.2005 10:25 AEST | #

So much love for Anya. Tell it like it is! — via LiveJournal — posted by Elizabeth Culmer at 17.01.2005 10:25 AEST | #

Weirdly I got a comment saying Anya was being patronising.

Anya was tactless and blunt, but never patronising. I have to wonder if they misread Xander's abyssmal behaviour during their relationship as loving concern — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 17.01.2005 10:26 AEST | #

I would have used a depilatory to give him bald spots — literally — via LiveJournal — posted by tsita at 17.01.2005 10:35 AEST | #

And it's less likely to wake the victim — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 17.01.2005 10:36 AEST | #

I like this. I always wished Xander had been given more of a chance to redeem himself but since he wasn't it is satisfying to see him get what he deserves.

Thank you for the giggle — via The Batpack — posted by Sandra Strait at 17.01.2005 11:31 AEST | #

Spike and Dawn are, indeed, the perfect cohorts. And Xander's the perfect victim! — via fanfiction.net — posted by Mark at 18.01.2005 21:47 AEST | #

Poor Xander. What did he do wrong? Other than leaving Anya ... I thought he suffered enough. Besides, Anya always looked down on him in their relationship. She always made fun of him. — posted by Jenna at 12.02.2006 08:01 AEST | #
