The open-mouthed smile on Beth's face is way beyond suitably impressed.
It's kind of a reflex to sniff a flower when you're given one, and she lifts it to her nose to smell it even though she can catch a hint of it on the air already.
It's not quite like any flower she's ever smelled before, and it probably shouldn't be. Chances are it's from Venus or Mars.
Spike's tricks are even better when they're unexpected.
She gives him this sort of sly, affectionate glance. "I thought you were just going out to smoke." Setting the flower down beside her, she tilts her head and smiles and holds her thumb and forefinger slightly apart from each other. "Just a little wine." It's kind of a celebration, after all. "Then I'll stick to the water."
