[ Buffy has a routine. She doesn't necessarily want a routine, but she's got one. It starts reasonably early in the morning.

[Morning--Sector 1--Athletic Complex]

Buffy jogs to the athletic complex dressed in a zipped hoody, tank and yoga shorts. She spends the next couple of hours going through tai chi movements, stretching and wailing on a punching bag and/or fighting dummy. Once she's worked all the restlessness that comes with being a slayer and nothing to slay out, she jogs back to her apartment. She can be interrupted on the way to the complex, during her workout or on her way back to her apartment.

[Mid Morning/Afternoon--Sector 4--Closed to Dawn]

Once she's showered, Buffy yells for Dawn. Yes, they live in the same two bedroom apartment, but that doesn't mean that yelling isn't necessary. It's a sister thing.

"Dawnie!! Breakfast is a thing we should go do."

They'd probably end up shopping as well. It was a common Summers bonding activity.

[Evening--Sector 4--Merlottes]

Evening finds Buffy doing something else routine. She's at Merlotte's waiting tables for the dinner shift. Feel free to have her wait on your table, catch her in between tables or at the bar. ]

[ooc: specify where your character is running into Buffy]

Shouting is most definitely a Summers sister thing. Dawn was on her bed writing in her journal when she hears her sister shout. She shouts right back. "Just a sec!"

Shutting the journal, she rolls off of her bed and quickly dresses in some shorts, a tank and a hoodie. She pulls her hair up into a ponytail and then grabs her book bag that she takes with her everywhere.

She practically bounds out of her room full of energy. Yes, sometimes she really is a glowing ball of energy, minus the glowing. "Can there be pancakes with all the syrupy goodness? Cause... sugar highs are always fun."

	"Pancakes with syrupy goodness can be possible. Also bacon because it's not breakfast without fried pig." Fact. Really. In any case, Buffy likes bouncy, energetic Dawn. It is much better than mopey Dawn. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Dawn hasn't realized yet that Xander is gone. She's gonna have all the mixed feelings about that. But for now, she's happy with her sister here where there isn't a weekly apocalypse. She's happy to be with Peter, whatever she and Peter are. She's happy taking all the classes she can while she's here. And she's generally in a good place.

All of this makes for bouncy, energetic Dawn.

"All the fried pig... and syrup. I bet bacon tastes just as good drowned in syrupy soup as pancakes do. In fact, I'd bet most things taste good drowned in syrup... except maybe sardines." Her nose wrinkles. "...and carrots."

	Buffy is beginning to suspect that Xander is gone. She doesn't want to think that much about it. The whole idea of people leaving bothers her because she knows the truth about what happens. They go into some sort of storage. Besides, Buffy likes it when Dawn is in a good place. "We'll have to experiment. Just not with sardines and carrots." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Oh! We could try french fries." Dawn starts to prattle on as she and Buffy leave the apartment. Both hands grip the strap of her messenger bag as she walks alongside her sister. "And tater tots. And spam. Cause... spam. Oh, and we can try a snickers bar. I wonder if a funnel cake drowned in syrup is just overkill or some crazy mixture of yummy goodness that must be explored at all costs."

	"I'll leave the spam to you and I think the snicker bar might actually kill us. With all the sugar. Funnel cake would be yum, especially with fruit on it and the syrup."" She's used to Dawn's prattling and her food experiments. She takes them both in stride. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ After his conversation with Sam the other day, Spike's made an effort to stick to routines. Show his face a little, or at least as much as he ever does in an effort to keep up the appearance that everything is fine and dandy. Nothing out of the ordinary here, no sir!

His routines just so happen to involve stopping by Merlotte's for a drink every so often and that is what he's doing tonight, casually swaggering up to the bar and taking a seat, blue wrist band clearly displayed like the trophy it is. ]

[ It's several minutes before Buffy can get away from her tables, but that doesn't mean she didn't see Spike when he walked in. She's been keeping an eye on him from a distant, not close enough to notice anything except that he seems to have been keeping his distance. In any case, this return to normality is welcome. ]

Let me guess. Whiskey.

[ She's already getting it out from under the bar. ]

	[She rolls a shoulder in a bit of a shrug.] No reason I shouldn't be. I mean, other than the obvious 'we're in prison', but I've dealt with that and moved on. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I wouldn't say that. Getting out of here, still on the wishlist. I'm biding. Look at me, being all bide-y. [She rolls her eyes.] Things between Sam and I are fine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
