"Oh - hold on -"

Billy made his wobbly way to the door, and, steadying himself with one hand against the wall, opened it.

"Hi - thanks," he said, visibly relieved that she'd showed up - and even more visibly feverish and unwell. "This, uh, probably isn't the best first impression ..."

fuzzynightmare March 26 2009, 05:13:09 UTC

Oh, man. He looked awful. Willow's concern was written all over her face as she entered the room, going to Wiccan's side. "Here, I'll help you. You shoudl sit down or lie down or... something where gravity can't make you smack into the ground, okay?"

She offered an arm, hoping to steer him towards some comfortable piece of furniture. "Oh, piffle. You've already won me over with your wit and witchery, this so isn't a first impression."

inmyothertights March 26 2009, 10:31:37 UTC

Billy winced a little, not just thanks to the fact that he was in pain - he hated having to put upon someone he'd really only just met for something he'd have usually been able to deal with by himself. It wasn't that it was embarrassing so much as that he seriously wished Willow didn't have to go out of her way for something that should've been just his problem. But just wishing wasn't enough for once, and he didn't have much choice, so he took her arm and, head bowed apologetically, let himself be steered to a couch to sit down.

"Not much witchery going on here right now," he said weakly, lifting a hand to push some hair out of his eyes - he'd have to remember to get it cut - as he looked up at Willow. "Or wit, actually. My brain feels like it got hit by ... I don't know. Like mush." He slumped forward slightly, looking away to make sure the blood wasn't showing through his jeans. It wasn't, which was good to know - not that it made him feel that much better. "I'm sorry about this, seriously ..."

"Mush is... bad," Willow said, slowly making their way over and gently helping him sit down. "And don't worry about the wit thing, y'know? We all have our off days." She offered him a comforting smile. "Or, sometimes, off my-entire-time-in-highschool."

The redhead leaned over, reaching out to feel his forehead before she stopped. "Hey. Worrying about wit and apologising about me helping you are off limits, okay? We witchy types gotta stick together. I help you now, you don't try to get me burned at the stake later." Rolling her eyes at the lame joke, Willow raised her hand and wiggled her fingers, before pointing to Wican's forehead. "Uh, you don't mind? If I kinda-ineffectually take your temperature with the old fashioned and motherly forehead feel, do you?"

Mentally she was running through a list of spells that might be able to help. Of course, maybe it'd help if she narrowed down the list of what was actually wrong in terms of pains and ailments...

IT'S OKAY ILU inmyothertights March 29 2009, 17:19:49 UTC

"Oh, I know that one. Lack of high school is probably the best thing about this place." Of course, it didn't really make up for the fact that he was feeling about five kinds of horrible right now, but it was nice to hang onto the small mercies.

"Burned at the stake?" He raised his eyebrows a little, managing a slight smile. "Sounds like a deal. I could, uh ... rain thunder down on your persecutors, or ... something, and - oh - Oh, sure, go ahead, my forehead is ... open for poking."

HOORAY ILU2 fuzzynightmare March 29 2009, 17:40:46 UTC

Willow smiled, clearly sympathetic. "Yeah, wish that could've happened to me in high school. I mean, we and the Scoobies fought monsters anyway, and I was really good at all my classes, but being smart was kinda frowned upon." She made a goofy frowny face and waggled her finger at him. "You are here to learn, but a-doin' the learning will make you not-cool and unsociable!" Shaking her head, she proceeded to gently press her hand to his forehead. It was definitely warmer than it should be. Well, duh, he got attacked by a monster. Another part of herself reared up in defense. Yeah, but what if it was freezing him from the inside or something? Pfft.She snapped herself out of the internal dialogue ( ... )

\o\ inmyothertights March 29 2009, 18:30:36 UTC

Billy laughed a little at that. "Yeaahh ... I'm okay at learning, but my mom thinks I could do better. She's - a little more sympathetic since she found out about the whole super hero thing? Except she thought I should register, and ..." He shook his head, dismissing that line of thought - the last thing he wanted was to have to try to explain the war over the SRA to someone who came from a universe without any super heroes. "But, uh, yeah - wait, you mean the whole ... burning at the stake thing ... actually happened?" Well, okay, she had said fighting monsters, he reminded himself, but he still looked a little incredulous. "What kind of stuff did you - you know - what kind of evil were you fighting?"

He leaned back a little when she removed her hand from his forehead. "My leg," he said, indicating his right leg, just above the knee. "Here. It's kind of gross, and it's not really healing ... but I hear that's normal."

"Parents are kinda impossible to please," Willow said with a sympathetic smile. "How did she take it? I remember... Buffy told me her mom didn't take it so well. There was yelling and... kicking out." Her smile became a little sad. It still hurt to think about Joyce. She'd been more like a mom to all of them then their actual ones. "And uh, that was when my mom found out about the witch thing. It was complicated, but by golly Shiela Rosenberg wasn't going to have a witch for a daughter!" There was a self-depreciating eyeroll. "It really was more complicated than that, but its kinda confusing. Like most of the evil. We had vampires and demons and an apocolypse or six." The most recent of which you nearly caused.

An uncomfortable expression settled on her face before she shook herself. So not the time for the wallowing and the misery. "Can you show it to me? It might help with the treating."

\o/ inmyothertights March 30 2009, 20:42:34 UTC

"... Wow," said Billy, kind of staring. "I guess I should count myself really, really lucky ... My mom was kind of - well - she was kind of surprised to start out with but she never actually minded until they made it illegal." He shrugged, a little awkwardly. "But, I mean, we never had ... well, I guess we nearly had a time-travel sort of apocalypse that one time, but mostly just ... alien invasions and ... people in costumes being assholes to each other ( ... )

orz! Here, have a pile of chocolate and love fuzzynightmare April 3 2009, 23:03:21 UTC

The redhead listened, her brows furrowing as she mulled it over. "Illegal? Really? But-- I thought heroes were a good thing?" She frowned. "I mean, Buffy has a hard time sometimes because of the needing to kill demons and fight evil schemes and sometimes the government and the military gets involved which is just a big bad wolf of a time, a-although Buffy isn't a pig or anything." She paused. "If you meet her, maybe never tell her that the term pig came into play, okay ( ... )

YOU MAY KEEP THE CHOCOLATE BUT I WILL TAKE THE LOVE inmyothertights April 4 2009, 02:19:55 UTC

"Yeahh, it's ..." Billy winced and shook his head. "That's what I thought, too, but now there's all this registration crap and the only legal way to fight crime is being drafted into the Initiative, and ... yeah. It kind of sucks. So ... military fail all around, I guess." He gave a resigned sort of shrug. "I'll ... keep that in mind? You only said it as in she's not a pig, though, so ( ... )

I HAVE RETURNED FROM THE PIT OF NO RETURN. HERE IS A TARA. gentlewitch April 6 2009, 00:12:45 UTC

Tara walked up to the door in the Bryant Park Hotel that Willow had told her to go to. She was nervous. The last time she'd seen Willow, well. It hadn't been all sunshine and rainbows and love. More like darkness and despair. And then Willow had asked her out to coffee, which she could do, because coffee was delicious and safe. But then Willow had asked for help with a friend, with magic, and that made Tara nervous. She couldn't refuse to help a person in need, of course, so she'd agreed ( ... )

WOAH THERE, OXYMORON AHOY! READY THE LIFE VESTS! fuzzynightmare April 7 2009, 02:08:28 UTC

Now that was weird. "The Initiative? We had one of those in my world. They wanted to use demons and monsters for military purposes or something... it was weird." Suddenly all that felt like a long time ago. "Extreme military fail. No cookies for the military," she added jokingly. "I-I'm sorry about the uh, them making it difficult for you though. Especially when all you're trying to do is protect people. That seems faily." Stupid military.

"Spandex?" Willow wrinkled her nose at him in a silly expression. "Really? What colour was it? Because it seems like it'd be really hard for spandex to be flattering." Her eyebrows inched up a little, although her eyes were still closed. "Then again, I'm not the most fashiony minded person in the world." She was verging on a ramble, but at least chattering would be a distraction while she inspected the bite with her magic. It felt... weird. Brow furrowed, she had opened her mouth to ask a little more about the crabs when there was a knock at the door ( ... )

inmyothertights April 7 2009, 03:23:07 UTC

"Probably a different one, if you don't have super heroes." Billy shrugged. "Fifty State Initiative? On its own it's just sort of generically ominous - I mean, seriously - Initiative. It's ... okay, though, we keep under the radar. Mostly ..."

He could feel her using her magic to examine the bite. It was - weird, different, but it wasn't like he'd never encountered magic that wasn't the same as his own before ... still, he was trying his best not to focus on it. He'd been about to answer the question about the spandex (which was kind of flattering on some people! Really!) when Tara knocked. He watched Willow, slightly puzzled by the sudden flaily awkwardness, but he didn't ask, just smiled at Tara when Willow opened the door.

His smile froze a little when Willow introduced him, though, and he slouched a little, raising a hand in a shrugging sort of greeting. "Normally I wear pants," he agreed with a kind of resigned embarrassment.

gentlewitch April 7 2009, 21:15:54 UTC

When Willow opened the door looking incredibly flaily, Tara knew the redhead must be as nervous as she was. "Hi," she said with an awkward wave and very little eye contact. This was weird. Here was Willow, and Tara didn't know what to say to her. That had never happened before. She sighed internally. They'd have to work this out. She couldn't help but feel awkward around this Willow, though. She was incredibly attractive with her longer hair, and Tara wasn't sure if that would constitute cheating or not ( ... )

fuzzynightmare April 8 2009, 03:57:40 UTC

Willow nodded her agreement. "Probably. I-- I don't think they had an expanded name. They were just creepy and military and liked to do experiments on people and monsters and-- it was messy and blarghish ( ... )
