Stake-Out oo2 | [Video]

[stakedthat]

Okay, seriously, who is actually in charge here, and please no one say it's the mice again, because honestly, are you listening to yourselves? They would have to be giant demonic mice, and--

They're not, right?

Whatever, I'm getting distracted, I can kill--erm. Extermi--uh. DEAL with giant, demonic mice if that's actually the case (not that

You sure are talkative.

[stakedthat]

Yeah, sorry, that's usually part of the "Hi, I'm Buffy" spiel, but it must have been left out somewhere along the way.

[veinly]

Between the demon mice and the bookstore?

[stakedthat]

And the atrocious month of pool cleaning, yeah. Right, so. Hi, I'm Buffy, and this is the part where you introduce yourself so I can stop talking.

The captains are indeed rodents. They are not demonic, or even large. Usually it is best to not ponder more on that issue, but seeing everything else, is it so surprising?

As for your job it sounds rather standard, who would hire someone to simply stand around and do nothing?

Your residence can be changed at another time, or you could simply choose to go elsewhere no one will force you to live in any particular place.

[stakedthat]

You have never been to California before, have you? I have been paid for far skeezier things before...that I am never ever mentioning again.

[nothing_is_grey]

No I have not, but I find it hard to believe there was not something you were meant to accomplish.

[stakedthat]

Looking pretty is totally a thing, thank you!

[Aziraphale is reading when a familiar voice pipes up. He stops paying attention when Buffy seems to ramble on about mice. But when he hears the word "bookshop", his head snaps up and he stares at the guide.

Oh dear.

He fumbles for the device, hand a bit shaky. Is his private solitude going to be interrupted? Not that he wouldn't welcome her, just that... It's his shop. And he's lived in the shop alone for... Well, since he opened the shop. Actually, he's lived alone ever since he came to Earth.]

Er... What, pray tell, is the name of the bookshop?

[stakedthat]

I don't know, some rare, occulty, weirdo thing. I really wasn't interested.

[manicuredangel]

It, er... It wasn't Fell's Rare Books, was it?

[stakedthat]

[Pause. Looking around anywhere but the screen.] Maaaaybe?

[lovesagoodmisog]

...okay, I won't say it's mice.

[video]

[stakedthat]

Good. That means I can spend the next however-long pretending I never heard about it in the first place. Because only crazy people believe that. And I am not that into strait-jackets.

Re: [video]

[lovesagoodmisog]

Ick. Straight-jackets are so tacky. Even with all the buckles.

[video]

[stakedthat]

I'm pretty sure it's the buckles that make it tacky...

[yosukecantstop]

...You live in a bookstore? Seriously?

[stakedthat]

Oh god, let's not remind me, it's more humiliating than being known for spending three years of high school in a library. WHICH I SO DID NOT DO, FOR THE RECORD.

[yosukecantstop]

You have to admit it's a pretty strange coincidence.

[stakedthat]

But I didn't live there; it's a huge-ish difference!
