270 // open action
[ Sooner or later, you run out of patience. You grow bored, antsy, you find yourself pacing like a wild animal in a cage, yearning desperately for something to happen just to break the monotony and sure, spending a day with lungs full of air and a heart full of beating was fun but not enough to even begin to ease that itch. The demon in your chest is clawing against ribs, screaming for blood, for fire and death and chaos. For the good old days. For something — anything — that makes you feel alive despite being a walking corpse.

He's got his body back. The chip has been out for ages and he finally retrieved his signature coat, Nikki Wood's coat, the very thing that reminds him of past glory, of the road taken to get this far. William the Bloody, Spike, the Slayer of Slayers. One step away from becoming a living (well) legend and now he's stuck here, chained like a dog in the backyard with the threat of a besoulment hanging over him like a guillotine. He's not going to take that lying down. He's not just going to wait, not when there's blood to spill.

It's late when he hits the streets of MarinaNova Asylum, dark shadows lending a perfect cover as he stalks through the sectors. Hunting. He will not go through this quietly. ]

((ooc: open to actions of many varieties, tho I'm definitely looking for victims. Successful and unsuccessful attacks all welcome. Hit me up on plurk or email (baratiesbest@gmail.com) if you want to plot or have questions! Please remember any hospitalization comes with an injury punishment AND an assault charge for Spike, so let me know if your character ends up in the hospital! ))

	[ More like looking for people even remotely similar to himself. Not a lot of big bads around here. Every little bit helps. ] Not really. I got a feeling things will heat up soon enough. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Strictly speaking he doesn't do sympathy, but he does kind of understand how tiresome it can be to be on good behavior.] Tends to happen when you run around making messes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	But making messes it's what I do. [ A grin, unapologetic. ] Been quiet around here for too long, anyhow. It's about time these boy scouts realize they got a Big Bad in their midsts. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm sure you've accomplished that much. [Well, okay. Brian plays a long game, but there's a certain thrill to mayhem. If circumstances were different... Well.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah... if this won't do it, I don't know what will, save for the end of the world. Not that keen on unleashing the actual apocalypse, to be honest. Not even down here. Hell dimensions can be tricky. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[See, sometimes he's not entirely sure you're not delusional. A delusional vampire could be a thing. But hey, who knows.] And then what? I doubt our robot overlords are gonna turn a blind eye if you're running around jumping defenseless strangers. [There's plenty of sarcasm there. He's anything but defenseless.] Seems like a hassle.

	They have so far. [ A sly smirk. He knows he accidentally found some loophole by killing people that may just come back on their own, but why show all the cards on his hand? ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Doesn't that take some of the fun out of it?] I guess we'll see if your luck holds. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ The killing is still the same. You just get to do it lots of times to a guy you don't particularly like. Very satisfying. ] I guess we will. [ He straightens out, clapping his hands together in the universal "I best be off" gesture, as if they just had afternoon tea. ] I should get back to work. Plenty of people still untapped around here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[See, it's never so raw for him. There is passion in his art but it's cold, slow, methodical; it's impersonal. He doesn't need to hate his victims. He doesn't need to know them at all; they just need the right aesthetic. And men are boring.] Leave some fun for the rest of us, [he says with a nod, still sounding a bit skeptical. But hey, buddy, it's your hide.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You snooze, you lose. [ Have fun with his leftovers, is what he's saying. Enough time wasted - off he goes. ] (Reply to this) (Parent)
