Training 05: Burying the Evidence

by Red Wolf

It was hot work, digging holes to bury demon components. The desert sand may have been friable, but as easy as it was to dig, it just as easily slipped back into the excavations. At least it was cool in the desert air and Buffy had elected to leave them alone to complete their task.

"Stupid Buffy sneakers."

"You didn't get sconed by a spade, Bit." Spike rubbed the sore spot on the back of his head.

Dawn held up the car keys with an evil gleam in her eye. "Fancy giving me a driving lesson on the way home."

Yes, I can well imagine the sort of driver Dawn would be — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 09.03.2004 09:35 AEST |

Love it! Just one question - in this context, I'm guessing "sconed" means "hit"? :) — via LiveJournal — posted by Willa at 09.03.2004 09:36 AEST |

Scone is a slang term for head, so sconed is hit in the head by an object. Not unlike nutted, but another head is involved — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 09.03.2004 09:37 AEST |

Ah! Got it now — thanks for the reply! — via LiveJournal — posted by Willa at 09.03.2004 09:38 AEST |

Bollocks. Scone appears to only be an Australian term, I thought it was in use further afield. Huh. You learn something new everyday.

It was funny to find it used in a sports report — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 09.03.2004 09:39 AEST |

Personally, I've only ever heard it in reference to some Scottish/British snack of some sort. Good thing I'm a fast learner — LiveJournal — posted by IrishVampire13 at 09.03.2004 09:42 AEST |

So cute! ^^ I'm a sucker for Dawn/Spike friendship. It's too perfect! Watch out Dawn on the road. And what a person to give her a lesson too. Loved this — via LiveJournal — posted by FeatheredQuill at 09.03.2004 09:43 AEST |

Dawn driving is not going to be safe for anyone. Flee now — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 09.03.2004 09:44 AEST |

Yes I believe that would be a good idea. ^__^ — via LiveJournal — posted by FeatheredQuill at 09.03.2004 09:45 AEST |

LOL. A wonderful sequel for last week's drabble, sweet. ::pets fic:: Love it so very much! — via LiveJournal — posted by Leni at 09.03.2004 13:56 AEST |

I continued the theme with you in mind, which I guess makes this a fic present, making a series of four interconnected drabbles and ficlets — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 12.03.2004 12:14 AEST |
