Soul plot six: the ensoulening
Two years in the making and the day has finally come: on day 280 Spike is getting his groove soul back, exactly 100 days after his arrival in Marina.This post is for organising the endgame of this long-spanning plot, as well as summing up past events in case someone missed something or simply want to look back with pride on how it all went down. Needless to say there’ll be a lot of information in this post, but I'll try to keep it as neatly organised and clean as I possibly can.
The road so far
• Day 180 — also known as ages ago. Spike arrives and immediately learns about his future ensoulment, which proves that there are other ways than gypsy curses.
• Day 224 — Tyki Mikk, with assistance from nurse Piter de Vries, removes the chip that up until now has kept Spike from hurting humans.
• Day 231 — The first attack, aimed at Lacus Clyne. Payback is almost immediate in painful and torturous ways.
• Day 235 — Spike and Jack have an encounter, ending with Spike killing Jack for the first time.
• Day 236 — Spike succeeds with his second killing since his arrival, in the form of Matt Donovan. Another one who wouldn’t stay down.
• Day 243 — Jack waits for Spike outside a bar to make sure he doesn’t kill anyone who can’t come back.
• Day 245 — Jack addresses the Defence Force about Spike’s recent kills.
• Day 247 — In response to Jack’s threats, Spike escalates the tension by attacking Ianto
• Day 250 — During the fear event, Jack gets a glimpse of what a re-souling can do.
• Day 261 — Threats of re-ensoulment are made and dismissed as bollocks.
• Day 262 — Spike explains to Kitty how Angelus got his soul back.
• Day 265 Kitty directs the investigative team to begin researching souls.
• Day 266 — Kitty asks the Wardens about the price of a soul.
• Day 270 — The build-up culminates in a blood bath, with several more or less successful vampire attacks across the dome. This was followed by a general plotting post for the aftermath.
• Day 271 — Ton Phanan makes an official report about the vampire attacks from the night before.
• Day 271 — Retaliation strikes hard and fast in the form of a baseball bat. After a lengthy and painful fight Spike escapes, leaving Jack to die for a second time. After a change of clothes and a chance to inform Rose of what’s going on, he slinks off to Sector 6 to lay low.
• Day 274 — Jack Harkness makes an inquiry with the Wardens about how to buy a human soul.
• Day 274 — After a few days hoboing it up in the jungle, Spike seeks refuge with murderbro Tyki Mikk. The situation is explained and analysed.
• Day 275 — Kitty Pryde unintentionally crosses paths with Spike while in Sector 6. Idle threats are exchanged and she ends the conversation by phasing a branch into him
• Day 275 — Jack Harkness rallies the troops and brings the Defence Force up to date on what’s going on with the recent attacks.
• Day 275 — Jack Harkness tries to get through to Spike’s girlfriend Rose, with not great results.
• Day 276 — Spike is forced to return to civilisation in order to work off his punishments. Tyki makes it clear that he’s got Spike’s back, should the Defence Force actually go after him.
Day 277-279 — Spike has continuously been working off his punishment at the Devil’s compass and although he hasn't been seeking out company, it’s not unlikely that he’s been spotted throughout the dome during the afternoons and evenings.
