Day 219 [video-->Action] Merlotte's Mingle - Open to All!
[What better way to kick off a mingle than to broadcast the invitation to the entire dome?]

Hey ya'll. I know it's kinda outta place t'say Welcome to Marina cause no one really wants t'be here, but it ain't all bad. In any case, I've got a bar an grill here in Sector 4 called Merlotte's, figure th' new arrivals may want to come on down and have a drink or two after a trip like that.

Anyone's welcome of course, we're open from mornin' to night. Come on in an' have a bite to eat or somethin' to ease your troubles.

((ooc: This is an open mingle. Feel free to thread everywhere with anyone. As always, before threadjacking make sure it's okay by the player but otherwise have fun! Sam is available to chat with either by Video or in person and his thread is right Here. There is a full menu of down-home diner/grill sort of foods, so hamburgers, french fries, salads, soups, breakfast items or whatever other comfort food you can think of and a few other things from other worlds. There is a full bar, wine, liquor, beer and even blood or synthetic blood. He also has a pool table and there's plenty of room in booths or tables to play cards or whatever else.))

	I figured that would make more sense to you then referring to her as my friend Faith. [Since why would you care about or know any of his friends.] Which accomplished exactly what I wanted it to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	How many Faith do you think I know? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notamasochist 2013-05-26 01:02 am UTC (link)
	Why would you instantly think some strangers friend named Faith would be the same as the one from your world? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-05-26 01:29 am UTC (link)
	Why would you bother coming over here to talk to me about some bird named Faith if you didn't know that I already knew who she was? Especially since I haven't even seen you before. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notamasochist 2013-05-26 01:43 am UTC (link)
	That wasn't my purpose in coming here. It came up in conversation. [But seriously. Why argue with him anymore about this?] Whatever. We both know who I'm talking about and she's not your friend. I think we've established that. The point was it isn't unusual to find you here in a bar. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	A promotion for Cap'n Obvious. What's your point? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notamasochist 2013-06-01 12:45 am UTC (link)
	Faith isn't here anymore. But you are. Again. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-06-01 02:36 pm UTC (link)
	And again I find myself wonderin'... what's your point? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[You sound like a broken record, Spike. But he actually thinks about why he approached Spike in the first place. Which is, frankly, no more complicated than just making his presence known to the vampire]

Perhaps I just wanted to welcome you back. [No. Not really.] It's always nice to return here and discover the vampire population has doubled and you don't know any information about their worlds.

Thanks to you there was at least one person I could say "Hey. Spike's back. He writes really bad poetry and hangs out in bars a lot."

[There is very little humor in his voice, but somehow his amusement still shows through.]

[ The agitation runs like a red hot shiver down his spine but aside from a tightening of his jaw, he keeps it civil. For now. ]

You remind me of someone I'd like to kill. [ Only needed one Xander Harris, thank you. ] So that's what you're here for? Introducin' yourself as a... what are you? Watcher wannabee? Scooby-gang hopeful?

Oh wait, you never did introduce yourself, did you. Awfully rude.

[Ah! There's more of the reaction he's looking for. And kill is better than what the vampires back home want to do with him.]

My apologies. Manners aren't my strong suit. Zero Kiryuu. Vampire Hunter.

[His gaze lifts, cleanly connecting with Spike's.]

I'm not a threat to you unless you become a threat to others--and even then I know Buffy has jurisidiction since you're from her world.

I'm sure you've at least seen me around. I just prefer everyone know what I'm doing and why...

	[ Hey, they don't know each other that well. Kill is just the start! ] Oh please... [ E y e r o l l. ] You must not be a very good vampire hunter if you go around introducin' yourself to your prey all the time. [ You're one to talk, Spike. ] How many of you goody-goodies are there around here, anyway? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Yeah, he's just going to let you believe that. Because...he does eventually have to get back to his girlfriend. The vampire.]

Depends on what you classify a 'goody-goody'. The 'I need revenge against vampires or don't trust anything supernatural' type or the 'I don't have a choice, this is what I was born to do with my powers' type.

Two of the second. Myself and Buffy. A few more of the first. [Which also includes him.]

	Isn't that bloody wonderful. [ Draining his glass. ] So? That's all you wanted to tell me? That you're part of the justice brigade and I better start behavin' or else? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notamasochist 2013-06-05 02:54 am UTC (link)
	No. Mostly I just wanted to mock you about your poetry. [There is absolutely no emotion in his voice, indicating his lack of sincerity in the comment. Because if Zero wrote poetry, it would probably come out sounding just the same.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-06-05 11:15 am UTC (link)
	If that's the only reason why you're here then you can just piss the hell off. [ Glare. ] Did Buffy tell you about that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notamasochist 2013-06-26 05:49 pm UTC (link)
	[Glare away. He's somewhat amused.] No. You left it someplace once upon a time and someone found it. [Zero actually tried to cover your ass and claim it as his own. Unsuccessfully.] The entire population of the dome at the time heard it read over the network. [His brows lift in surprise for a moment.] You've actually shared it with her? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-06-27 04:10 pm UTC (link)
	Great. Bloody brilliant... if I ever meet that bastard, I'm going to kill him. [ Spike, that would be you. Don't kick your own ass. ] And of course I haven't shared it with her, who do you think I am? Don't ask me how she found out, but she knows alright. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Most of the people that were here back then--no longer remain. So there wouldn't be many who even remember.

[Well...do you really want him to answer that?]

Anyone that read it and knew you would probably know.

[It was a little obvious!]

People probably tend to be surprised because when they think of vampires--poetry and feelings aren't the first thing to come to mind.

	[ Such a dry, feral look. If he thought he could wring your neck and get away with it, he would. ] I'm sorry, did I lead you to believe that this is a conversation I want to be part of? Because it bloody well isn't. Don't compare me to whatever cheap Camden Market knock-out you had here before. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notamasochist 2013-07-03 05:49 pm UTC (link)
	Did you just insult yourself? [The corner of one of his lips curls into a mildly amused smirk. At least Spike has the guts to try and get it all down on paper. Zero's would probably sound the same--which is why he doesn't write things down.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-07-03 06:03 pm UTC (link)
	Listen, mate. [ His voice drops, low and dangerous. ] That bloke was a man I have no intention of becoming. Whatever be-souled, sad excuse for a vampire you think he was, I am not. Him. I never will be. Got it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notamasochist 2013-07-03 06:16 pm UTC (link)
	[Zero's smirk widens a little. Chipped with no soul. Just the information he was looking for. He'll be throwing you a little higher on his list to be watched.] I'll take that as a yes. Good information to have. So I guess I'll just leave you to your drink in peace now. Enjoy. (Reply to this) (Parent)
