Word for August 28, 2002 – AUSPICIOUS
Adjective - attended by favorable circumstances
Giles was startled out of his sleep by a loud crack of thunder; loud, sharp splatter of an all day rain hitting his windows. Not an auspicious beginning to his day. Groaning slightly, arching his back, cracking neck and toes, reveling in the feeling of a good stretch.
He thought about getting out of his warm, comfy bed… for all of 30 seconds, before burrowing back under his coverlet. No reason to rise... he’d lost all sense of purpose when his Slayer took a dive from Glory’s tower.
The phone rang. All he heard was... Buffy, back. Phone call, reservation, Sunnydale.

Decided to try another one... my god, I might actually be having fun mixed in with my terror and going public.
Word for August 28, 2001 – PROFUSE
Adjective - abundant
Buffy sat in the middle of her bed, arms around her knees, a cross in her hands. Ropes of stinky garlic festooned her windows. She trembled with the weight of her profuse fears… all of them centered on Spike.
He had chained her to the wall in his crypt, and professed his love for her. He offered to dust Drusilla for her. The vampire was nothing if not intense. Why did she attract demons? Was she faulty? Not good enough for humans? Could she afford to let him into her heart? Could she afford not to?
Only time would tell.

Absolutely the FIRST thing ever written to specified points. Please, be kind.
Word for August 28, 1999 – EDIFY
Verb – edify – make understand
Spike (of course) set early Season 7
Crouched amongst the detritus of Sunnydale High School’s basement, Spike rocks back and forth on his heels. Holding his hands over his head, trying to ward off the visions and sounds that seem to permeate the darkness inside; that try to rip at his hair and skin and assault his senses. Hour after hour of yelling and screaming… obscenities and denigrations. Images of horrors well remembered flash behind his tightly closed eyelids. There is no peace in hiding.
A single image solidifies before him… her… the girl he’d hurt… before. Perhaps she would edify the tumult and set him free.
Edited: For some reason, the word count was off... should be fine, now.
