Funny how they always pull the plug right when we get to the fun part. Nothing good lasts around here, does it?

[ Locked to Jack Harkness ]

Not. A. Word.

[ Locked to Rose. ]

We should go out tonight.

	[She doesn't owe him anything, but it's not as if she has hid it much since the forced therapy sessions. It's hard to hide that you're not normal when no one really was. Everyone was different. But calling her a demon hits too close to home. She knows what she is, what she could do. It's not like she'll ever forget.] It takes a monster to know a monster. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oooh. So you do have something special in you? [ Isn't that interesting. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Stop saying it like that, she wants to yell, but doesn't. He's trying to make her angry and it's working. She wants him to shut up. Klara wants to do whatever she can to make him go away, but cutting the conversation off with make her look like the scared one. It will give him the advantage.]

There's nothing special about it. [And then a little more biting.] Just like you.

	[ At this point, she's either going to have to give in and hang up or get an intervention from an outside source. He has little intention of ending this game of theirs. ] So what are you, then? Like me? Or something else entirely? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Spike, stop antgonizing her. I like her. Klara Darling, there's much better company to be found, even here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Klara holds off what she had been about to say--as if she had truly been sure, she's been running on pure need to not back down for a while now--because she does trust Eric.] He keeps threatening to hurt people. [The closest she'll get to "he started it."] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yes, he is a rather yappy sort of barker. [ he's referring to the bark and bite phrase that gets tossed around so much. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She wonder if he's implying he won't really do it. That he's not as dangerous as he sounds. Klara won't take that chance.] Dogs that bark can still bite people. He doesn't sound like he's joking. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'll investigate. See what I can find out, okay? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You don't need to investigate someone who talks about how fun it is to kill. [It's so obvious to her that the idea he wants to wait and not do something about it frustrates her. She didn't mean to be that short with him, but he's got her on edge.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

No, but there is a difference between having fun killing raptors, which I personally enjoyed as well, and having fun killing something helpless. I've got to find out if Spike is doing anything wrong besides bragging about things that will get him into trouble before anything else can be done.

I will look into it. I can't promise I can do anything because of the wardens ridiculous rules, but I will try.

[She bites her lip because he has that authoritative tone that reminds her of her Dad and arguing with adults is improper. It's bad behavior and she shouldn't do it, but Spike is bad news. She can tell already. Why is everyone else so sure they need to wait for him to hurt someone first?]

He's going to hurt someone. [It's almost pleading.] Are we supposed to wait until they're dead? The punishments here are so stupid he may not care.

	[ He softens his voice a little and sighs. ] I agree. He's probably going to hurt someone if he hasn't already. However, I can't chain him up in my basement simply because he might do something. He'll never become a better person that way. He'll be a pet and I'm not overly fond of pets. I forget to feed them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I'm not a terribly good person. [ Well, yes and no. He's better than he realizes. ]

However, I was once a monster and someone felt I was worth rehabilitating. Because of that someone, I feel the need to make sure other monsters get the same chance.

[ See how he's not going to argue with her when he suspects she's talking about more than Spike here. He's talked to her often enough to see the signs. ]

	She's ten, Spike. [ plus a few centuries. hell for all he knows, klara is older than spike by a lot, but physically she looks more like a ten year old and eric knows she's touchy about people knowing what she is, so he'll keep that secret for her. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	chipswiththat 2014-01-07 10:51 pm UTC (link)
	Then it's about time she learns not to get her lit'le nose all up in other people's business. [ Also, he sees all that bark and bite talk, Eric. Who's the killer in this fishbowl, anyway? ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ There's a grumble and a growl. ] I don't think you understand. I like her and the number of people I like in this place is getting smaller all the time. Also, you're making a mess. Might try being a bit more discreet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Private chipswiththat 2014-01-08 12:31 am UTC (link)
	Right, right... you like her. She's yours, then? Downgraded to a younger model? [ Spike no. ] Making a mess is what I do. It's fun. You should try it, sometime. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Private vikingly 2014-01-08 12:51 am UTC (link)
	I'm going to pretend you didn't say that and if you value your miserable existence, you'll not repeat it. Oh, I'm considering just that, but you're not going to like it much. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Private chipswiththat 2014-01-08 12:53 am UTC (link)
	What are you going to do, stake me? Because let me tell you, anything short of that... Just not going to bite, I'm afraid. I'm terrible at learning lessons. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Now what fun would that be? No, I'll chain you up somewhere and torture you on a daily basis because that's the kind of mess I like to make. Once you've learned your lesson, I'll let you go on a chain and lead you around like my dog.

What fun we'll have. Maybe you'll even learn to fetch.

You really think the rest of the dome would just let you? That it wouldn't hurt your wonderful standing with these morons?

[ A tactic he's used both ways — he does have some friends around here and most people either don't know what he's done or don't care. He's pretty sure Tyki and Piter wouldn't stand for that kind of treatment... well, Tyki wouldn't. Who knows with that cinnamon-stinking weirdo.

There's a small pause and when he next speaks, his voice takes on an oddly heavy note. Eric wasn't the only one who faced some uncomfortable potential outcomes yesterday. ]

Besides... plenty of worse things in life than that.

I don't believe I was going to ask their permission, nor was I going to make it public knowledge until you've learned to be a good little dog. However...

If they think you've been hurting someone else, yes, I think they'll help me and I could care less about my standing with the morons. I expect there will be a contingency that rebels against it, but I suspect the majority will consider it fair.

Besides, I suspect I can take the contingency that doesn't agree with it.

[Asshole looks down right amused. Eric has figured out that he's not the scariest thing in the dome, but he also knows that bluffing can take someone a very long way. He's been doing it for years against vampires older and more powerful than himself. ]

Are there? Well, come into my dungeon. We'll explore those as well.
