Day 332 - closed to Ton
[ It was a morning like any other. A morning just like yesterday and the day before that, of warmth and curling up against Ton's back, arm loosely draped over his waist. An arm that's a little heavier today than it was the morning before — there's still a ring on her finger.

She smiles happily in her half-sleep, burrowing her nose into his spine. A sneaky tactic to get him to wake up, for sure. If this doesn't work she might just toss Gadget on him. ]

[ Video, closed to Jack ]

Hey, Jack! I have a favor to ask you. Well, two, actually.

	...Okay. [ She deflates, reluctantly. ] Okay. I... I don't know your world or your work or any of that. Maybe you have perfectly good reasons. [ Boy, is he sounding a lot like Ned right now. At least in her head. ] I just don't want to be part of what you want to forget. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[They're not brilliant reasons, admittedly, but Jack's had a long time to justify them to himself. Especially since he's been retconning people right back since he was a Time Agent. Any outrage he ever felt at the idea was a long, long time ago.

Which is why he grabs the opportunity to abandon that side of the conversation with both hands, when she gifts him with an opening.]

I don't want to forget you either. Yesterday was wonderful. I had so much family around me - I felt so warm, so loved, so wanted...

	You're still loved, you know. Even if we're not related by blood. [ And if it wouldn't break the time-space continuum (otherwise known as thread order) she's probably adopt him on the spot. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He blinks at her for a moment, taking this in; then he smiles, softly.] Good to know. Thank you. It's weird, in some ways perhaps the wardens have actually done us some favours with this particular little stunt. Made us realise what the people here mean to us. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Right? I could say a lot of bad things about them, but some things they kind of get right. You have to give them some credit. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Only a little, though. I mean, these are the same guys that made my boyfriend get engaged to Spike. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	As awful as that was, I can't help but wonder... was there a point to it? Did you learn anything new about Spike? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That underneath everything, he's a hopeless romantic? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Seriously? [ She's shocked! Shocked I say! ] You're kidding! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He grins.] Just think what a good little member of society he could be if he focussed all that adoration on the right person! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Wait, doesn't he have a girlfriend? I'm pretty sure I heard he has a girlfriend. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foreverjack 2015-09-01 03:54 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, but she's another vampire. That's what I meant when I said the right person. [Someone like Buffy. He's pretty sure he remembers someone telling him about that, in Spike's future, back home.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I suppose that would make sense, hitting it off with another vampire... has she caused any trouble, though? I mean, are all vampires terrible? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[His mouth twisted a bit.] She's... not as bad as him. But she wouldn't help us stop him, at the time. Kept going on about it all just being his nature and so on. She's very much on his side. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Hmn. ] You know... as angry as I was that he tried to bite Ton- [ And all those other people, of course. ] -I can't help but wonder now that it's all done... do we really know that much about them? Vampires. (Reply to this) (Parent)
