[Raven's been at that wine in the fountain for a good hour or so now. When life gives you lemons take them, they're free lemons right? He's pretty out of it - hugging anyone who happens to pass by, even the guys. Yeah there's birds being lovey-dubey and some flowers he keeps treading on, not to mention the fountain itself. But he's occupied with

[After a rather physical altercation with Kadaj yesterday, Buffy hasn't been the fastest stroller around town. Outwardly, she looks rather untouched but she favours her left side. She goes a-walking right by Raven, nodding solemnly as she goes.]

[crisis_rain]

[Raven spots, and hugs you from behind. Probably should've said hello first before doing this...]

[slaying]

[She groans from the pressure on her bruised and probably busted ribs. In fact, her first instinct is to twist around within his hug and come face to face with--] Oh. Wow. Uhm, hello?

[crisis_rain]

Hiiii~ Ya alright there Buffy hun? First time we've spoken in person!

[slaying]

[Is it possible that you look even older in person, Raven? :|]

I'm...fine. But are you fine? You don't sound fine. You sound kinda...sloshy.

[crisis_rain]

[He's old, and probably only about an inch taller than you at most. So yes.]

I've been at the wine in the fountain~

[slaying]

There's wine in the fountain?

[She hasn't noticed it yet.] And you just decided to drink the fountain wine? What, are you aiming to be hobo of the year?

[crisis_rain]

It would suit me as for a title wouldn't it?

But nah, I saw people drinkin' from it before. And there's goblet things round the edge, ya should try some!

[slaying]

What, so I can join you in hobodom?

[She eyes the man, trying to keep that amusement under wraps but mostly failing.]

[crisis_rain]

Why not? Everyone else already did! Ya'd be a fool not to take advantage, it's nice stuff.

[slaying]

Hey, mister. I recognize peer pressure when I hear it.

[But she does give the fountain a look of sincere consideration. Alcohol was just so consistently tempting since Jim leftKadaj broke her.]

[crisis_rain]

It's not peer pressure at all, consider it as friendly advice. Not like I can force ya into tryin' it.

[slaying]

Alright. [She nods.] One glass can't hurt, right? I'll just be sure not to drink as much as you.

[crisis_rain]

I doubt ya'll need to drink as much as I have to start feelin' the love~

[slaying]

[There's a complicated word. Love. The rational part of her wants to pull away from it--that there should be some reason why she should feel offended at the thought of love. But she pushes the thought aside and marches over to the fountain, filling a goblet for herself.]

To hobodom!

[crisis_rain]

[Raven joins in, why not he likes getting drunk.]

Let's share a toast to hobos!
