Hello, Cutie by scrambled_thoughts
Summary: "She was one of those un-fuckable Sunnydale girls. One who was probably too prude and pure to get involved with a bastard like me. You see, besides having what my father calls an intolerable penchant for swearing, I also can never keep my room clean, I procrastinate like nobody's business, I rarely think before I act, and I'm a tad bit unreliable. I'm also a bit of a prick if you haven't picked up on it yet." Fantasy fic with an odd touch of canon |
