[Ordinarily, stories about prison breaks and explosions would be right up Spike's alley. Today, however, he seems stressed out over something completely different. As if the upcoming holiday -- he hates all holidays, but this one in particular is the worst -- wasn't enough, he's been unemployed for way too long. Bills are going to start stacking up soon.]

Would it kill the castle to put out classified ads once a week?

[He tosses the open journal on the coffee table and sighs as he picks up his oversized mug. How is he going to raise money for a family at this rate? (Not that he's even dating anyone, but you know. It could happen.)]

There's got to be someone looking for a guy with virtually no experience in anything practical. [Hear that journal? He's talking to you. Great catch over here!] Maybe I could start selling jokes and see how that turns out. Or something in marketing. [Hm. There's an idea...] I could do that.

(Gwaine)

[Despite Spike's own personal crisis to deal with (that he's totally not procrastinating on right after he started), he hasn't seen him moping around the lobby like usual. Which means he's probably moping alone somewhere. And that fight with Julia sounded pretty bad from where they were all evesdropping in the next room. -- Thus, Spike will be a buddy and force him to do something he hates.]

Hey. Want to go out?

[Yes! Go with that!]

That's very responsible. [Also, that means the rest of these beers he brought are for Spike, which he continues to partake in.] But now what are you going to do? You'll run out of albums pretty soon.

Wish for another one?

[Okay, he tried. Nobody can get mad at him for not trying.]

Sounds like a fun evening.

Not really. But there's nothing else to do.

[He pushes the album away and crosses his arms in front of his chest.]

[Because Spike hasn't been trying to get him to go out for the past however many hours it feels like it's been. This is why he should always bring backup.]

I know I can't think of anything.
