It’s my day, and I’m popping in to say that I’ll be back for Free-for-All Day on the 15th. I have a little Spuffy trifle in the works, but due to wild temperature fluctuations in the oven that is RL, it’s still, er, a trifle underbaked.

“Intervention” Spaiku, Epilogue: Reinvention (16/16)
One last tip of the hat to this round’s theme. Thank you for reading!
Started with a fake,
ended up with something real.
‘S poetic, that.

“Intervention” Spaiku, Part 15: Attention Must Be Paid (15/16)
I.
Enters crypt, winces.
Unsure what she expected…
not this mangled man.
“Intervention” Spaiku, Part 14: Tension (14/16)
I.
Checks out her double,
wonders how friends were fooled by
shoddy craftsmanship.
“Intervention” Spaiku, Part 13: Circumvention (13/16)
I.
Though battered and fried,
remains a pain in Glory’s
lame, lopsided ass.
“Intervention” Spaiku, Part 12: Comprehension (12/16)
I.
Pilgrim’s homecoming
marred by false allegations
and blame—there’s blame now?!
“Intervention” Spaiku, Part 11: Detention (11/16)
I.
This Keyed-up wack job
wants to know about l’il sis?
See her in hell first.
“Intervention” Spaiku, Part 10: Incomprehension (10/16)
I.
Bot tires of waiting
for her Master to return.
Go make Spike happy!

I.
Blow job suspended
as Hero Harris blows in.
No one bloody knocks!

What has she become
that only the dead love her?
Is something missing?
“Intervention” Spaiku, Part 7: Unmentionable Doings (7/16)

Vamps deftly dispatched,
and yet she itches for more.

I.
Bot on a mission:
“Vampires of the world, beware!”
(Especially one.)
“Intervention” Spaiku, Part 5: It Came from Another Dimension (5/16)
I.
God of bad home perms
longs for the hellfires of home.
Slayer holds the Key.
“Intervention” Spaiku, Part 4: Pretension (4/16)
I.
Juxtaposition—
Buffy gropes to find the truth;
Spike fondles a lie.
“Intervention” Spaiku, Part 3: Willing Suspension (3/16)
I.
Watcher shakes his gourd,
does arcane novelty dance;
stewardship transferred.
II.
Cougar spirit guides?
Turtlenecks in the desert?!
Visionquests are strange.

A/N: #3 is one of two haiku I’ve previously written for “Intervention.”
“Intervention” Spaiku, Part 1: Intervention (1/16)
Here’s my dish for this Spring’s Spuffy potluck: a heapin’ helpin’ of haiku. (Oh, don’t worry about overeating — you’ll be hungry again in an hour!) I’ll be posting throughout the evening until you’re ready to strangle me midnight so as to space out the spammage a little. Many thanks to enigmaticblues for having us all over again and for being such a gracious hostess. You have a lovely home, dear. Also, gratitude of great magnitude to Mister Beta for his invaluable input and for giving me time to write when there seemed to be none. Thanks as well to rebcake for continued encouragement and the always awesome always_jbj for the beautiful banner.

Genre: Haiku
Syllable count: 1275

A/N: Here are some Spuffycentric Spaiku caps from BtVS, S5, “Intervention.” Sixteen parts.
Feedback is more refreshing than a margarita on Cinco de Mayo. ::hiccup::
Dedicated with love to mi amigas herself_nyc and philips, just because.
Crushed Spaiku, Epilogue: Undress (12/12)
Disrobes for the day,
asks her weary reflection:
what is it he sees?

his dignity in tatters,
her shrine in shambles.
Crushed Spaiku, Part 9: Make a Spectacular Mess (10/12)

Bloody through playing;
no longer be sire’s toy or
Slayer’s punching bag.
