"You're important to me, and if I had wanted to rush off and see them I would've left the minute I was corporeal," Spike pointed out, though if he had had the offer before of an actual role and some independence instead of just being Buffy's lap dog he might have made a different decision.

Wesley appreciated the reassurance more than he would have been able to say. "Then I'll just have to loosen the death grip I've got on you, won't I," he said lightly.
