MCA0: Monday Night

[needsaparrot]

Xander and Bridge had been having a late dinner when the call came in. Logan hadn't given a lot of details, but what he had said was enough to leave Xander uninterested in the meal that was probably cold on the kitchen counter by now.

Why eat when you can pace your apartment and glance twitchily out the window all night?

A short time later, Bel shimmered outside the door of MCA0, his arm around Veronica's shoulders. "We're here," he said needlessly, sounding very unhappy.

Veronica knocked on the door and hoped that Logan had made it here safely.

"Hey guys," Bridge greets the two of them as he opens the door. He might not have the whole "don't give direct invitations" thing drilled in to his head quite as thoroughly as someone from Sunnydale would, but he's making a point to remember it now.

[demonbelthazor]

"Hey," Bel said. "Can we come in?" Probably not the right thing to say at this moment.

[marsheadtilt]

Veronica rolled her eyes. "Hey, Bridge," she said, grabbing Bel's arm and tugging him in to the apartment without waiting for an invitation. She knew there wouldn't be one forthcoming and she wasn't about to stand outside all night.

"Did Logan make it here okay?"

[psycho_jackass]

"I'm fine," Logan said. "Still breathing and everything."

[marsheadtilt]

"Good," Veronica said, crossing the room to give him a hug. "Do we know anything for sure yet?"

[psycho_jackass]

Logan shook his head.

[demonbelthazor]

"It couldn't be," Bel said, leaning back against a wall. "Maybe he was just messing with me, still pretending." Because Angel was so well known for his mischievous tendency to prank people. About Angelus.

[bridge_carson]

"Angel's about as good at messing with people as *I* am," Bridge points out.

[demonbelthazor]

"Yeah, but . . . how?" Bel said. He cast a glare in Logan's direction. No way he could've given Angel a true moment of happiness.

[psycho_jackass]

"That's what I'd like to know." Logan glared back. Bel had tried to relieve Angel of his soul before, after all.

[demonbelthazor]

"I didn't do it!" Bel said.

[bridge_carson]

"No one's saying that!" It's technically true. Logan had *implied* it, but he hadn't said it.

[psycho_jackass]

"You're awfully defensive," Logan said to Bel. "Something we should know about?"

[demonbelthazor]

"Why the hell would I turn him back into Angelus and then go to Veronica and clue her in and let her call you?" Bel said. "I don't want Angelus back. I haven't for a very long time. But hey, maybe you wanted to spice up your love life or something. Or you're hoping Angelus will make you a vampire this time."
