[The camera flickers on, revealing a man sitting in a chair, spinning a top on a table. The area around him seems to be nondescript, abandoned. His clothing is soaking wet, but he doesn't seem to be paying attention to that. Weightier issues press on his mind ( Read more... )

Welcome to the City: The land of not sense making. I'm Buffy. What sort of team do you have? Also not Hell. We have coffee here.

I doubt Hell exists.

It's...an unconventional team. Not something to worry about.

[Not something you'll be informed about.]

I'm Cobb.

Maybe it depends on your world but in mine, it does. On different levels.

[It's okay. She gets the whole subterfuge thing. Or at least in theory she does. She was never really good with a secret identity.]

Nice to meet you, Cobb. You found your friends then?

Yes, actually.

[And the fact that it bothers him deeply, isn't something he can hide.]

[She understands that.]

My little sister is here. There was a lot of double edged sort of feelings going on there about that. I think it's sort of normal.

[It's only double edge if something has happened to her back home.

There is a spike there, of Shade, but he decides to inquire. Instead of assuming.]

Double edged because you're happy to have family here, but don't wish her here...or something worse?

Double edged because...this place can be pretty...cruel and I know I should wish her home and safe and happy but I'm really, really glad she's here.

[Nothing so sinister. At least not in this case.]

Being selfish is human. And wanting loved ones with you isn't necessary a bad thing.

So we just give in to selfish tendencies and be hedonists. [She pauses a moment and hmms] Not the worst idea I've heard but then we get into all the 'as long as your hedonism doesn't infringe on my hedonism' and it's complicated.

[His eyes darken slightly.]

It's only a problem when those wants become obsessions. When you lose youself.

Yeah obsession is scary and usually much with the losing of selves.

[He gives a shrug.]

First hand experience, then?

[Would rather probe her mind, rather than delve into his own.]

With obsession...yeah. [Although she was more the object of the obsession than the obsessed. It resulted in a lot of people dead, some of them her friends.]

Well hopefully you can avoid it next time. When you get out of here.

I think...my obsession is done with me for a few years at least. [That's kind of how it works with them.]

Yet they sneak up when you least expect it.
