(no subject)

I am looking for a fic I read several years ago. I can remember a couple of specific scenes but not the actual plot line of the story. It was a Spike/Xander fic. I remember Xander was working on a construction site and found out most of his co-workers weren't human when an accident happened and one of said co-workers didn't bleed red. Later he starts hanging out with his co-workers at a demon bar and either runs into Spike or brings him along. I don't think Buffy approved of Xander's new friends, but I could be wrong. Can anyone help me?

Season 3 Beat down on Faith

Hi everybody, I hope you can help.

Not that long ago I read a season 3 (I think) one-shot, where Spike runs into Buffy and co, in a graveyard. Buffy mentions something along the lines of Faith being the perfect Slayer (per the scoobies). Spike then proceeds to prove everybody wrong. He repeatedly beats Faith, then fights Buffy, and everybody can see how well she's doing.

I've checked my history, and all the usual places I go, I just can't find it. Of course it would help if I could remember the name. :) So any help is muchly appreciated.
