Liam is still sitting in an armchair, numerous empty coffee cups around him. Jeremy the rat's been keeping him supplied. Seth is sleeping the sleep of exhaustion, nestled against him, after crying most of the night. Liam's eyes are fixed on the door.

Liam hasn't slept for two days. Someone should probably do something about that.

Here's a full cup.

Attached to a Slayer.

Faith sits next to him, and hands it over.

"Hey."

He takes it with a grateful smile, careful not to disturb the baby.

"Hey. Thanks."

"Welcome. No sign?"

She has coffee too. Mmm, coffee.

"Not yet. Unless you count the 16-year-old."

"Saw him, yeah," Faith says quietly. "Weird."

Beat.

"Probably weirder for you."

He almost laughs. "Fuck, yeah. I'd forgotten being that... young."

"He was cute." Faith grins slightly. "I mean, he's cute now too, but differently."

"He... yeah. Did you make him blush?"

"Nah, we didn't talk that long. I was kind of in shock. He blushes?"

"He did when he was sixteen. Used to tease him about it something rotten."

Faith grins. "That's sweet. In a sadistic older brother kinda way."

Liam grins faintly in return. "Hey, what else are big brothers for."

Faith shrugs. "Dunno. Never had one."

The smile fades.

"I don't know if I can talk to him again."

Faith sighs and puts an arm around him. "I'm pretty sure I can't," she admits quietly. "I'd be tempted to tell him stuff."

"I think I already told him too much."
