shapinglightI've written a drabble for International Fanworks Day (which I did not even know about until I saw ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
yourlibrarian posting about it) on Sunday. Hope you enjoy.
Setting: BtVS season 7, during Chosen
Rating: PG
100 word drabble. (At least Word is telling me it's 100 words. Hope that's right).
If this is crap please someone tell me, and I won't inflict it on A03.

"Are you ready to be strong?" she says.
Her words aren't aimed at him. She believes in him already. Thinks he doesn't need them.
They aren't aimed at her friends, or Giles, either.
They've faltered ('course they have, they're only human), but they've been being strong for years, and she knows it.
No, it's Slayer talk. Buffy, Faith, all those scared little girls, who suddenly don't look so scared.
A circle he can't be a part of.
But he takes her words to heart anyway.
He's made the choice. He's ready.
When the times comes, he'll do the bloody business.
