I daresay I had not been--quite expecting such a curse. [some snipping, a ruffle of fabric] It wasn't quite right--nor wrong--nor truly twixt the two at that...I could--would and have wanted to--nor thought to, or rememory unfaulty and unbroken--..even see their faces. Gone now.

[a clatter--he tries to smile through the words]

..From what I can

Hey. Tarrant.

Want to come to a beach party today? I'm gonna be there and Eliot and probably Xander. You'll have fun and we can invite Alice if you want.

[She really just wants to get him out of the house. She thinks maybe it would be good for him]

[10shlling6pence]

[being out would probably be best--the madness gives pause to 'beach' and 'fun']

...what?

[and further]..Alice.

[whattingawhat]

Come out to the beach.

We can invite Alice if you want. It's sort of an 'invite everyone' beach party.

[10shlling6pence]

..A party. Yes. Yes, that--that sounds. At least it sounds, in the cacophony and loudness--where I feel deaf and crushed--isn't it lovely there, Buffy?

..Isn't it?

[whattingawhat]

[She sort of knows what Tarrant is talking about. Sort of]

Yeah. It is. I'll see you there, okay?

[10shlling6pence]

...Yes. Yes, yes---when. He flies by me so fast, but when?

[whattingawhat]

Oh. Sort of nowish.
