"I wasn't trying to hurt you," she promised. "Just...hinder you. A little. I--"

There had been something about the sight of him running away that had activated some basic, unhappy part of her. She'd been unable to take it in good fun.

"I should've aimed for your feet. I shouldn't have aimed at all."

[all7seas]

"Annie?" He reached for her hand again, this time with a small, pristine white shell to give. "Flattering, you aiming for me like that."

[herotypical]

"Flattering?" She transferred all the leaning duties to one arm and reached over to lift this third shell from him. "You have to explain the mental acrobatics that went into that conclusion..."

[all7seas]

"You could have wanted some other chap not to leave." Into her possession went the shell. "But instead you wanted me."

[herotypical]

"While it is a fair assessment that I probably wouldn't have thrown a can at many other men, I'm not sure you should be giving me a pass on this one."

Guilt had dug its claws into the Slayer.

[all7seas]

"Are you apologizing, woman?"

[herotypical]

"I'm trying to..."

[all7seas]

"You're making it extraordinarily overcomplicated."

[herotypical]

"...Kettle, meet pot."

She had yet to see an uncomplicated Jack apology.

[all7seas]

"You could just kiss me an' say 'sorry.'"

[herotypical]

"That easy, huh?"

She gathered her gift shells in one hand.

[all7seas]

"Should I demand more?"

[herotypical]

"...Depends on the more."

[all7seas]

"I suppose you could get down on your knees, maybe?" He was kidding, of course. Jack didn't WANT her on her knees to him.

[herotypical]

"...Oh, heck no." She slid closer. "A kiss will have to do. Deal with it."

[all7seas]

"Buffy." He set the shells down and leaned close. "Said as though I'm settling. You little wonder."

[herotypical]

Her nose touched his.

"I'm sorry, Jack Sparrow."

[all7seas]

"I forgive you, Buffy Summers."

[herotypical]

She curled fingers around his wrist and kissed him.

"It was a pretty damn good shot, though."

[all7seas]

"Amazingly effective. But this? More effective."

[herotypical]

"Maybe, but...I wasn't gonna kiss you to keep you. Not in front of Sokka."

[all7seas]

"Don't want to go back to the no-kissing-you-in-public rule. But -- aye. Him an' me, we were talking about...romantical things, before. And such. Poor lad."

[herotypical]

"How about just a no-kissing-me-around-Sokka rule?"

Poor lad, indeed. "Just for a while. It's too cruel, otherwise. Isn't it?"

[all7seas]

"It is. I...wasn't thinkin' when I hugged you." He pulled back and threw some rejected shells into the water. "Least he'll see her again -- when they send him back. But I know he's feeling it terribly."

[herotypical]

But Buffy worried about what Sokka now saw as lost. She considered her words as she watched the thrown shells sink.

"Of course he is. They had a whole life here..."
