"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..."

[all7seas]

"You know -- his grand-things showed up." Kerplunk -- another shell in the water. "She could come back."

I've come back twice now.

[herotypical]

"She could come back, sure. Younger and memoryless.

Any of us could."

night!

[all7seas]

Jack knew that very well. It was information he often hid from, or at least tried not to dwell on. "Water's beautiful tonight."

night!

[herotypical]

"It might actually be beautiful every night. Say what you will about kidnappings and experiments and...other stuff -- the place is pretty. All around."

Buffy lined her shells up on the dock before reaching out for his hand. "But I guess there might be a certain something extra pretty, tonight."

She paused, unsure whether she should approach this subject after some of the stranger elements of the day. But: "Hey. Did you mean it? About the electricity?"
