"I promise I will. Soon. Just have to make sure everything went right with Spike and Tara. After that, You're right, Knox is perfectly capable of running this place for a day without me. That, and I've more than earned a day away from this place...based on the last few days since coming back from Texas alone."
"If you ask me, you've earned a whole slew of days, babydoll," Lorne pointed out. He folded his arms across his chest, seeming not to notice the fact that such an action would form wrinkles in his expensive suit jacket. Once upon a time, he would have freaked at the mere mention of wrinkles in his Gucci or Armani, but now he could more than afford to drop a few bucks to get dry cleaning and steam treatment. "I think you oughta look into taking a full-fledged vacation. In all honesty. Hell, we all could use one, but considering all the curveballs life's been throwing your way lately? I'd say you deserve to have yours first."
"Things have just been a little nuts, trying to get everything I'm supposed to be doing done, and help Spike. But he's all corporeal again, so things should be a little calmer. At least after I run those tests and make sure it's permanent."
Lorne smiled a little. "Well, as long as you don't overwork yourself... and you promise me, that's it. You do that, you take a day off. At least one. I'll even hold up my end of the bargain... I'll have a day of rest myself come next week. Alrighty?"
