[ He's sure of it now. Not that it matters — not that he cares — but the Dome does seem particularly Scoobie free. Buffy's gone and she took the lit'le bit and that mangy mutt with her. Sam's been missing even longer and with that he's plum out of moral influence. It's a relief in a way. It allows him to not think so hard about that sad flicker of a soul he's got somewhere out there in the world. It's freedom but just as much abandonment. Angel's come and gone and now the last sliver of familiarity disappeared. The last man standing from Sunnydale and he has to wonder... did they find a way home?

Did he get left behind?

It's not something to dwell on in any case. Not when there's hunting to be done and without a Slayer in the dome, who's to stop him? Eric, the great big hypocrite? The Wardens? He'd love to see them try. But first... a few stiff drinks at the Rusty Spoon, formerly known as Merlotte's. For old times sake. ]

((ooc: Available at the bar or skulking around outside somewhere, if you want a meeting that doesn't involve ridiculous amounts of alcohol! ))

	[ Been a while since his attention was requested in that particular way. He turns around with a mix of curiosity and nonchalance, expression going from one ready to punch some skulls to something a whole lot more pleased. ] Look who it is... long time no see. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She'll jog over the short distance, grin still intact.] 's up? You haven't been avoiding me, have you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	'Course not... been busy, 's all. You know how it is. Work just keeps pilin' up.,. [ Or in his case, bodies. ] So how've you been? Anything new? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Snort.] Nothing spectacular. You fell off the map at Christmas, now I'm wondering if I should give you coal instead of your present. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-11-03 06:07 pm UTC (link)
	Well, I've certainly been a bad boy... [ Amused and maybe in a bit of a weird mood. ] Did you actually get me something? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2013-11-03 06:13 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, I did. Don't have it on me at the moment, but I can get it. Don't worry, [she points two fingers at him] I don't expect anything baaaack, but maybe you'll remember my birthday. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ He rolls his eyes — it seems like a good tactic when you're not sure how to react to something. These stupid girls and their big, naive hearts. It works to his advantage of course, but it also makes things... sticky. ] I don't even remember my own... besides, who can tell 'round here? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2013-11-04 07:06 pm UTC (link)
	[Now it's her turn to roll her eyes.] Fine, buy me a drink. [Pointed glance for if you want to get technical over the 'buying'.] Anyway, I saw it and I thought of you. You want it now or another time? 'Cause if I might keep it if you skulk off for a couple more weeks. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Oh no, he's not going to be That Guy. So rarely had to pay for stuff back home, the whole concept is a little fuzzy. ] I got no plans of disappearing, but you never know... might want to get it over and done with, just in case. [ Yes he's curious, shush. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2013-11-05 04:44 pm UTC (link)
	Greedy. I like that. [She gives a glance around, gauging distance.] You could come with me or we can meet at the bar? Your choice. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-11-06 05:29 am UTC (link)
	Hey hey, I didn't ask for this you know. This was all you. [ Amused. And... that is one interesting proposition here. ] Are you inviting me in? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2013-11-06 04:21 pm UTC (link)
	[She doesn't know the folk lore.] Sure...? I'm one sector over, not far. Y'coming then? [She's already turning around.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-11-06 05:07 pm UTC (link)
	[ She's about to. Of course, he won't indulge in all the helpful details. ] Sure. Not like I have anything better to do. [ Aside from digging out a cigarette, of course. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2013-11-06 05:19 pm UTC (link)
	[She looks at the cigarette and wrinkles her nose. She can't even berate him for it because he's dead.] This way. [Arm motion forward as she starts walking. And some idle chat to fill the way:] So how has your day been going? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-11-06 05:36 pm UTC (link)
	[ Best perk of being dead, let's be real. Can't get sick if you're not even breathing. No worries though, he's not about to blow smoke her way or anything like that. Manners. ] Can't complain. Got some interesting suspicions confirmed... how 'bout you? Anything new going on? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2013-11-06 06:11 pm UTC (link)
	[It'd be hypocritical of her anyway, there's still a pack in the house left over from Cross that's dwindled down to only a few left.] Interesting suspicions? I'm jealous. I'm getting nothing out of my research. [She snorts, then admits... ] I'm peddling water. Don't really have a direction to go in right now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sounds like all you lit'le cyber witches are coming up with a whole lot of nothing. Tough gig. [ Nonchalant, but not completely without sympathy. Jeeze. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2013-11-07 06:45 pm UTC (link)
	[Cyber witches. She likes that. She's already fiddling through her pockets for her keys.] I know, right? I even tried flirting. Worth a try, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-11-07 07:19 pm UTC (link)
	What, you actually came on to the heap of screws? What would you have done if they took you up on it? Shagged a robot? [ Spike. Spike no. You don't know what your future holds, just stop. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2013-11-07 07:22 pm UTC (link)
	[She offers him a cheeky grin over her shoulder.] First time for everything, right? And who'd have better leverage than the Warden's mistress? [Wiggles her brows before snorting, leading the way up to her apartment, keys a jinglin'.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Hah!] Am I? [Still grinning, even if momentarily turning to push that door ajar.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-11-07 07:38 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah... at least he got some standards. [ Playfully. He follows her to the door, but stops on the threshold. Not by choice, mind you. ] You need to invite me in. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2013-11-07 07:43 pm UTC (link)
	Heyyy, I have standards. [She quips back, already a few steps in and ditching her bag. She stops and turns back when she realizes he isn't following.] Huh? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2013-11-07 07:47 pm UTC (link)
	[ Pressing a hand against that invisible barrier. Quite solid. ] Vampire, remember? I can't step foot in someone's home without a direct invitation. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
