The rules for claiming

[icemink]

I know this isn't cannon (as in from the show) but what would people say are the rules for claiming? I'm dealing with it in one of my stories, and feel caught up in the mechanics. Mostly I'm trying to figure out what in a bite makes it a claiming.

So what are your opinions? I know there isn't a hard and fast rule, and I can make it work however I please in my story, I just haven't figured out what will work best in my story yet.

I was thinking about this...the verbal component is the big thing. However since you want it to be interrupted, I was thinking something sort of cute, but realistic for Buffy. Well not "cute, cute". Anyway, ever seen "Bullets over Broadway"? No? Well classic line...there is this broadway diva that asks someone a question or wants someone to answer her, but then she puts her finger to their lips and says, "Don't speak...no..shushh..don't speak." lol So perhaps during the porn "act" maybe Spike starts to say, "MMM..." and Buffy goes, "Shhh...don't speak..."!!!! just a suggestion. Would work in this case.

The shushing idea is pretty funny. However, I already know how the interruption happens. Sometimes those Slayer instincts are a bad thing. I might work it in latter though. There's another scene where I think Buffy may ask Spike to claim her because she's upset about something, but then she may change her mind. Of course that's a ways a way and whenever I plan that far in advance, things always change.
