Nausea by stuffandnonsense

Printer
Summary:

It used to be that, whenever Angel was alone and thinking about Buffy, he’d read Sonnets from the Portuguese. But ever since they’d nearly kissed again he hadn’t dared think those thoughts, let alone read them. He knew full well that reading Sartre instead was a terrible idea, but he was doing it anyway.

My Buffyverse Bingo 2020 submission for the prompt ‘Hot Cocoa’. Angel’s perspective on Lovers Walk.

Story Notes:

Quotes at the top of each chapter are from Jean-Paul Sartre's La Nausée (Nausea), which is a book about how unbearably awful it is to be alive, and which Spike saw Angel reading when he spied on him in an early scene of Lovers Walk. Translations from the French are mine.
