This, uh...

this--th-this isn't the happiest topic. I, just, y'know, I--I-I don't want to ruin anyone's mood so--so...

So--so yeah, heads up.

...Death isn't permanent here? There--th-there's a system that brings us back if something happens to us. But...I-I mean, we have something like death. When--w-when a person leaves, when they're just--j-just ( Read more... )

[Andrew doesn't usually do memorial stuff like this. Of course, he's never had a reason to. So he feels like he needs an excuse to come down to Sergei's besides lighting a candle ( ... )

[Herz watches quietly from the sidelines, then after Andrew's third candle, he slips into the kitchen.

Andrew...reminds him of himself in some ways. So he doesn't feel too presumptuous when he returns with a napkin filled with cookies for him. Sweets always make shit like this better?]

[Buffy, Dawn, Xander, Willow, Kennedy, Faith, Mr. Giles, the principal, Vi, Rona... Andrew hasn't even started lighting candles for the people who actually died--Amanda, Molly, etc.--when Herz arrives with the cookies. Candle in a nervous hand, Andrew smiles sheepishly at Herz before lighting one last wick and setting down the piece of wax. He's not necessarily embarrassed at his somewhat bleeding heart, but more that he was wasting so many candles on himself.]

S--sorry. I didn't mean to take up so many.

Nah, it--i-its okay.

There's more candles where those came from.

[He smiles softly at the other man and sets the cookies down next to him. From the looks of it, he's gone and interrupted Andrew, so there may be more candle lighting to come. If that's the case, he doesn't want to fill his hands.]

Here. I, uh. I-I--I thought you might--might want some.

[Andrew eyes the cookies for only a second, wondering briefly if they're some of the ones he made, before he decides it doesn't matter and takes a bite out of one.]

This is... nice. The candles. Kind of, uhm... gloomy. But nice! [He couldn't think of anything else to say, okay?]

Uh...glad you--you like it?

[He's trying to be humorous. He may be failing hardcore at it.]

No, I like it! Gives us a nice chance to, like, reflect on things and stuff. [A thought crosses his mind and he quickly lights another candle. Spike. His hand wavers as he starts to set it back down. Did he light one for Jonathan? He suddenly can't remember. Well, will it hurt anything if he lights another one, just in case? So he does so then sets the candle down.]

There... I think that's all of them... [There were so many freaking Potentials... and Andrew feels a little bad that maybe he didn't talk to as many of them as he should have. Gotten to know them better, seeing as most of them died.

He turns apologetically to Herz again.] Sorry. Sorry, I keep lighting some. I guess there's more than I thought. I mean, I wasn't even going to light any, but I miss a lot of people more than I realized I did, you know?

[Herz raises a hand and shakes his head.]

Not, it--it's fine. I lit a lot, too. That's, you know--

[That hand, the same one that dismissed him, pats him on the shoulder.]

That's--that's what they're there for? There's more candles whe-where--where those came from. And more tables to hold 'em.
