*Gives your Ethan fic mouth-to-mouth resusictation courtesy of a good bottle of single malt.*

Good idea to get Ethan drinking. Spike doesn't have to join him, of course if he's wary, though I don't see how he would be as he wasn't the one on the receiving end of the Fyarl spell. And, as Angel and Spike both agreed, it's much more difficult to get a vampire drunk than it is a human. All you need is the motive behind why Spike finds himslef in Ethan's bar - and I presume you already have that.

Feel free to bounce off me for while. I'm not off to France until the end of the month.
