OK, so remember that I wrote that LotR drabble the other day? Well, then speakr2customrs retaliated by writing this one. And... well...

The Evils of Capitalism

Giles stared at the contract with Anya's name on it. "I know I left you in charge of business decisions, but this is... insane!"

"'Insane'? It's a perfectly logical business decision. The Magic Box is doing well, and so we're expanding."

"By buying the entire Sunnydale Mall?!"

"OK, it seemed a little extreme at first. But one of our magic jewelry suppliers accidentally sold me this, and I realized that it was my destiny." She held up her hand to show the shining gold ring on her finger.

"Good lord, is that..."

"Yes. The one ring to rule the mall."

OMG you are f#cking BRILLIANT! I thought the first was funny, then speakr2customrs was belly laugh funny....but this is punning at it's best! Your Skeletor/Death fic will always be my favourite, but this is running a close second!!

Thanks a lot! We'll see if s2c chooses to escalate... :-)

"Yes. The one ring to rule the mall."

of all the things for my dormant muse to pick up on, this drabble got to her and after trying to resist her nagging for two days I gave in and wrote a response

Re: aaargh

[beer-good-foamy.livejournal.com]

YES! It's spreading! Mwahahahahaha!

[ubiquirk.livejournal.com]

Great Anya - that's a ring she can really get behind.

[beer-good-foamy.livejournal.com]

Plus, just imagine Buffy's levels of squee when she finds out that they now OWN the mall. Thanks!
