Well, duh. We're hot chicks with superpowers. Anything taking us down has gotta be the exception.

[herotypical]

[ an almost smile. for old time's sake. though...though buffy finds herself sad to realize that faith doesn't have the same memory of that phrase as she does.

nice to see the same spirit there, though. ]

Faith. Has anyone told you about the invasion that happened here, a few years back? Big battle? Worthy of a Hollywood blockbuster?

[want_take_have]

[she crosses her arms on the window frame, getting comfortable]

Think I skipped that day.

[herotypical]

...Their cavalry charge was led by a man everyone 'round here simply calls the General. Capital G.

[want_take_have]

Oh. That guy. [she didn't remember most details, but she'd heard this one. Her brow furrows] Didn't you already hand his ass to him?

[she remembered, because that had been a bit of a blow, showing up here to find Buffy wasn't just a secret hero, anymore. She was the town's golden girl]

[herotypical]

Apparently his ass was up for a little payback. But [ as others keep telling her and as she tries to clings to ] the score's still in my favour. I guess.

[want_take_have]

[she gives her a once over] No offense...but if this is in your favour, I'd like to see the other guy.

[herotypical]

I still have my wings. That's more than I can say for him, the first time we met.

[want_take_have]

I'm guessing not so much, this time around.

[herotypical]

[ honesty time: ] Things got close. Very close. Like bad-guy-got-his-fists-on-my-feathers close.

[want_take_have]

[she shifts uncomfortably. Heart to hearts aren't her forte, but she manages to avoid quipping to get out of it]

Looks like you made it back, alright.

[herotypical]

...Yay me. Back and bedridden. The lap of luxury ain't all that, you know. There comes a point where the next pillow fluffed is one fluffed pillow too far.

[ ... ] All quiet on the home front while I was gone? I mean -- besides the storm. No sign of we-know-who?

[want_take_have]

Quiet ain't exactly the word I'd pick, but the noise wasn't coming from anything with fangs.

[herotypical]

I still can't decide if that's a good or a bad sign.

[want_take_have]

Seeing as I'm not hearing anyone crying about neck wounds or blood loss, I'm gonna go with good.

[herotypical]

...I don't like it when they're tough to pin down. What if she's back but sub-radar? Gathering support?

[ or...buffy's simply paranoid. ]

[want_take_have]

Jesus, B. Listen to yourself. Who exactly is she gonna recruit? This whole place is like a recruiting station for boy scouts and bleeding hearts.

[herotypical]

Faith. [ she swung her pajama'd legs over the edge of the bed. ] She was here before. She had this guy -- Haseo -- who let her feed off him.

[want_take_have]

Seriously?

[she makes a face] Wicked gross.

[herotypical]

...There's actually a whole industry based on it, back home. [ oh. she pitter-pattered towards unfortunate subjects, here. ] People who're twisted enough to pay vamps for suck jobs.

[want_take_have]

Twisted.

Mostly, I say to each his own, but that's one kink I don't think I'm gonna get.

[herotypical]

Y-yeah. I never got it. [ ... ] Torched one of their pseudo-brothels, though. That felt kinda good.

Sorta.

[ didn't really make things feel better re: riley. ]

[want_take_have]

[Faith, at least, looks impressed]

Nice, B. Wish I coulda seen that.

[herotypical]

...I guess it's still yet to happen, from your POV. What -- at your time-point, I'm still with...Riley. Right?

[want_take_have]

[she swallowed at that]

Riley.

[hard to forget him. Or what she'd done with him] Yeah.
