....Why would you assume that someone would only bring her up if something bad was happening?

Not assuming anything. ...Did you have somethin' to tell me? About Fred?

Not really, I was just kind of... wondering about her.

Wondering about her... [And then suddenly he cracks a grin, pointing right at Chuck.] You're sweet on her, aren't you? Don't deny it.

What, I- wait.

[Stare.]

Did you really say sweet on her?

It's a perfectly valid-- you didn't answer the question. [nice try :|]

Maybe in the 1950's and yeah, whatever. She's cool- I'm curious about her.

[He has a track record of asking out lesbians, sob. Also this Angel person. ]

She is cool, huh. Might be too cool for you.

[He tosses the flask at Spike half-petulantly.]

You're one to talk, Captain Peroxide.

[He snorts, putting up a hand to catch it. Spike takes a swig before answering.]

You want to know, what? If she's available?

Well, yeah, pretty much. And, you know, if there's anything weird I should know about. I accidentally asked out a Scientologist once- I'm trying to avoid past mistakes.
