002. Backdoor cracked we don't need a key. [backdated]

Action for 724 Anderson Ln.
[Spike stumbles in because lmao - he doesn't need to be invited] Oy, Watcher! I've got something to tell you. [Oh yeah, he's also badly beaten. Thanks for that Lust and Edward.]

You here? [He's just lighting up a cigarette in the middle of your kitchen Giles, leaving the door wide open.]

Phone.
Coming to think this milk isn't so bad. I'll take some off your hands, huh? Drink it for you. Not sure the Milkman would be too keen on that.

You'd think I'd be used to beatings and all, but-- [ he breaks off, almost like he forgot he was talking. ]

Well, haven't ever done it this way. Hurts a lot more.

Though everything's numbing up now...

For Pete's sake, try not to kill yourself.

Not dead yet, huh? I'm as surprised as you.

[buffyspeaks.livejournal.com]

Try not to fall for the obvious and stay alive, then?

[He opens his mouth to protest, but he really needs to know if she's alright, before he starts the bickering.]

..How've you been holdin' up this week?

Dealing with the stupid milk, but not too shabby actually. You?

[askedtobe.livejournal.com]

What do you mean- this way?

phone.

[rudolphofvamps.livejournal.com]

You know. As a person. Makes everything sting that much more.

[askedtobe.livejournal.com]

What were you before you were a person?

[Somewhere in his muddled mind he still realized this wasn't free information. He just wasn't sure he cared.]

Vampire.

phone.

[askedtobe.livejournal.com]

[ There's a momentary pause before-- ] Right. Guess that would explain that.

perma...phone....

[toomanly.livejournal.com]

Forget what it feels like to have the stuffing pounded out of you? Did you need a reminder?

:|b

[rudolphofvamps.livejournal.com]

Wager so, huh. Jealous you couldn't do the honors?

(pokerface)

[toomanly.livejournal.com]

Me? Nah, I got better things to do than worry about giving you the old one two every chance I get.

(whatever)

[rudolphofvamps.livejournal.com]

Yeah, like what?

.. sob

[toomanly.livejournal.com]

Like things. Around the house. I've got a wife and kids now, i've got husbandly duties to be taking on. Manly duties.

[ a beat ] Yeah, I got nothin'.

Not sure I agree with your methods.

[luxuriality.livejournal.com]

[ calm as ever. ]

But my methods did work and you sound better than ever before!

[rudolphofvamps.livejournal.com]

You still sound a little tinny though, you should get that looked at.

): sorry bb

[luxuriality.livejournal.com]

I'm perfectly fine. Thank you for your concern.

[ Giles is too high for this. He looks up, belatedly, from his place on the couch-- sprawled out in a rather un-Giles-y manner, minor scrapes and some nasty-looking bruises visible on his face and arms, though they're fading. He squints at Spike through a sea of colors that aren't actually there, and for the moment forgets to be bothered.

Actually, no, Giles is just the right amount of high for this. ]

Oh. Did they hit you with the car?

[rudolphofvamps.livejournal.com]

[He snorts, taking his first drag as he squints back over at Giles. He's really very near-sighted as a human :| And the milk taking its affect doesn't help.]

Yeah, mate. Or at least--feels like that.

[watchedher.livejournal.com]

Did you give them reason to?

[ Even tripping balls, he sounds suspicious about the idea that Spike could be innocent in this. It would probably be more useful to focus on who 'they' are, but they'll get there. Eventually. ]

[rudolphofvamps.livejournal.com]

Nah, mate. Just passing through.
