Summary
Not with a bang, but not with a whimper either. It turned out the end didn’t come for Spike at all.
He had said he wasn’t going to meet Vicious to die and that hadn’t been a total lie, but Spike had still expected to find an answer, or finality in some form. Only it hadn’t come. After everything he had gone through, it hadn’t come. He thought he had climbed all the way to the top of the staircase, but the only thing waiting for him was a false step that he’d gone tumbling through, all the way down to the bottom again, like it was a great cosmic game of snakes and ladders.
***
Spike, Faye, Jet and the aftermath. Or, what happens when time keeps on going despite everything.
