[ Spike is, in fact, very much on the ground when Set finds him. He's not so sure he'll ever be not on the ground again, with how dizzy he is, so he doesn't even try to sit up, hand still around the neck of a near-empty bottle as he sniffs, ]
[ Where she's alive and has broken your heart. Spike releases his grip on the bottle, watching through blurry eyes as it rolls toward the glowing logs of the fire. ]
She's the Slayer. She kills vampires. I'm a vampire, I kill Slayers.
Got it all...twisted. Somewhere down the line.
But she'll never love me back. 'Cause I don't have a soul.
My, that sounds terribly romantic for both of you. Imagine being so entwined, that you found affection amidst the most primal order to kill one another.
[ The bottle rolls a little further, shunted aside by the edge of Set's foot. He tucks the drape of his night coat into the crook of his elbows, and settles into a graceful heap next to Spike's messy sprawl. What a silly man. ]

You're not wrong, actually. 'Bout the soul.
Could get it back. Dunno how I'd do it here, but I could--get it back. Put it right. For her.
