It probably wouldn't help if she told him that she didn't find his book summoning any less silly than his overall brand of vampirism, would it? Actually, as powers go, it sounds pretty flash stark to her. She can think of more than a few books she'd be pulling out of thin air if she could.
Not that she's about to hand Spike a wish list. Even if he knew what he was doing, she's pretty sure he'd laugh himself sick at the Blood Lore series. Well. She never said it would be highbrow literature she'd be summoning. She wants something familiar that will make her feel better, not something critically acclaimed.
The offer of a drink throws her, at first because if he really doesn't want any help with the Book Thing, she's not sure why he'd want her to stick around at all. Two minutes ago, he was pointedly asking if she was done clearing the place. And second because that is a hell of an uncomfortable pause as he searches for an answer that isn't… that isn't something only a sucker would be interested in, anyway. And then he comes up with water. And, okay, vodka, but still. Yeesh. What exactly is his game plan, here?
"Okay," she says, surprising herself. What's your game plan, Sunshine? Maybe she's just curious to see where he's going with this, and it's not like the rabbits will be any less safe wandering that hallway than they would be in the base. "Um. Water, though. Bit early for vodka."
