DAWN: You wanna know what I'm scared of Spike? Me. Right now Glory thinks Tara's the key. But I'm the Key, Spike. I am. And anything that happens to Tara is 'cause of me. Your bruises, your limp, that's all me too. I'm like a lightning rod for pain and hurt and everyone around me suffers and dies. I must be something so horrible, to cause so much pain and evil.
SPIKE: Rot.
DAWN: What do you know?
SPIKE: I'm a vampire. I *know* something about evil. You're not evil.
DAWN: Maybe I'm not evil. But I don't think I can be good...
SPIKE: Well, I'm not good. And I'm okay.

~~Tough Love~~
