Re: The Bar: Ambrose, Buffy, Eterna, Allison and Kenzi
Buffy noticed his hold on her tighten, taking that as a sign that she wasn't exactly performing up to expectations. She masked a grimace by taking another sip of her soda.
I will not punch the vampire. I will not punch the vampire. I will not punch the vampire.
The mental chant continued as Buffy smiled brightly, choosing to ignore the comment about her intelligence for all of their sake. "That would be peachy," Buffy replied, sparing a glance at Allison and Kenzi in turn. It was alright to look at slaves, wasn't it? Right, she had to sell this for their sake too. "It's been hard for me to get used to this. I'd... appreciate the company if their Mistress would allow it." Keeping that second remark sounding even halfway genuine was like pulling teeth, but she kept reminding herself that it was something she'd have to get used to sooner rather than later.
