[ 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. ]

[ This may have escalated further and faster than he intended for it to do, but it's no joke. He's sick and tired of not being taken seriously, even more so with being lumped in with the sorry, be-souled excuses for vampires they've got in this joint. He's tired of being seen as a non-threat, as the puppy who doesn't chase cars anymore, the Big Bad that lost his edge. Whether it's the chip or his future self or the current reputation he's got around here, it's leaving a bad taste in his mouth.

It's about time they find out what he's really about. William the Bloody. The Slayer of Slayers. The Big Bad.

He meets that cool look with a smirk, head cocked playfully to the side as he reaches out to pat Jack on the arm. Deceptively friendly. ]

Why don't you give that a good think? I'm sure you can work it out. [ And with that he takes a step to the side, just about ready to leave. ]

[Jack lets him go. It's hard – it's incredibly hard – but it's the only way to play this. He needs time to think, to do some reconnaissance, to work out what's going on with Spike, what's sparked this odd little rebellion (as he sees it). He needs to determine whether Spike really is a serious threat here or not. And that'll be easier to do out of sight, watching Spike with others who aren't him, to find out if this is just a show put on for him or whether it's actually real.

So, uncharacteristically, he reigns himself in and clenches his jaw tight shut as he moves aside to let Spike pass. He watches him till he's out of sight, and then he sets off for home. He's kept Ianto waiting quite long enough.]
