A lot of people include a quote from their favorite shows in their email sig line - a particularily funny snippet of dialogue, or something deep and meaningful. I decided that I wanted to use quotes that I found in fanfic. I wasn't all that surprised when people started asking me for the URLS to the stories they were from. So, here in its entirety, is my list thus far.

The way he’d moved... the way he’d touched her had shown her a completely different side of Spike. A side she wasn’t so sure she wanted to see. He’d been mean, evil, icky Spike for so long, and seeing sweet, gentle, yummy Spike with the evil, sharp teeth was... well, it was wiggy. (Actually it was more like a kick in the gut - the yummy Spike part was big and disturbing enough to have its own damn zip code).

"Out Of My Head"

"Sure," Anya said sarcastically. "So was there sparkage? Tingliness? Thinly veiled sexual innuendo?"

"There were definite tingles," Buffy said, dropping her eyes as if ashamed. "Problem is, the tingles were about a foot north from where the tingles usually were, and now I'm not sure what that means."

"Hmm," Anya said. "Well, tingles a foot north can mean one of two things. Either you ate some bad seafood, or you're in love."

"Oh!" Buffy's eyes lit up with excitement. "We had that shrimp last week!"

"Do you think he's dead?"

Buffy bit her lower lip and kept her eyes focused on the table in front of her. "He's always been dead."

"You know what I mean." Dawn picked up her peanut pile of cards and began to shuffle it nervously.

"No," Buffy said, her voice coming out a little too stern for her liking. She sighed. "No," she repeated, gentler this time. "I honestly think he'll live forever. Like a cockroach. A nuclear war'll kill us all and when the smoke clears, it'll be Spike and the roaches, existing forever just so the new evolving race of life will have something to be aggravated by."

“Women are like.....stars.” He nodded his head sagely. “They’re unattainable. And just when you think you’ve almost got’em in your grasp, they’re a million miles away.”

“Wow! That’s really.…...a load of crap,” Xander started cackling. “Didn’t make any sense at all. You’ve lived a hundred years and that’s the best you can do?”

“You stole it!!”

“Whaddya bloody think? I don’t have any money.”

“Is that how you get all your stuff?”

“Mostly. Evil, remember?”

“God, you really are despicable.”

Spike chuckled, “I know. Thanks.”

"I'm not a nurse," Anya said to the bleeding crewman standing in front of her. "I can use Band-Aids and Neosporin, but twenty-second century medicine is a little beyond me."

The crewman stared at Anya blankly, his hand clutched to the wound on his neck.

"But you should feel lucky," Anya went on, oblivious to the steady stream of people coming into Sickbay with injuries. "That vampire could have killed you instead of just sucking on you. Or turned you, which is a lot worse. Believe me, I've seen it. Not pretty. Being dead does awful things to your complexion."
