BtVS Drabble Prompt: Franz Ferdinand Lyrics

[garnigal]

Under a cut for language and sexual situations - Rated R.



She was always looking for the next five minutes.

She danced – always surrounded by a big crowd, always the focus of every eye, always the object of lust and a dozen grasping hands.

And then she was gone, looking for the next five minutes.

She fucked – always on top, always demanding greater pleasure, always pushing the boundaries.

And then she was out the door, looking for the next five minutes.

She slayed – always striking out with fists and feet, always with a weapon at the ready, always fighting to stay in control.

Just hoping to survive the next five minutes.

Song: What She Came For - 'where do you see yourself in the next five minutes...'

Wonderful insight into Faith and why she does the things she does.

Thanks Ares. I love Faith.

I really liked this. I think you captured Faith's motivation.

Thanks. It's the underlying panic that makes Faith's character, I think - she disguises it well, but she's always afraid of something, be it death or loss of control.
