Buffy - I was asleep when you came back, I think. Congratulations. Or whatever one says after such things.

Fred - I moved my bed back to my room now that you're up and about, since there wasn't much space to maneuver with it there. And for your privacy, of course. I'm still right next door if you need anything.

The roof is a bit burnt but I think

"I think I shall go back to sleep now;" seriously?

[the_ex_watcher]

I spent the duration of the battle defending my ill friend who was hiding in our house from enemy soldiers who slipped through the battle lines. I am also still recovering from a serious concussion and some not-insignificant blood loss.

I believe I have earned some extended rest.

[god_is_a_dude]

...Then go sleep or something. Some replying to people here. Jeez.

[POINT: missed. He was getting at the formality, but now hes lost the will to do it]

Hours later, after he wakes up again

[the_ex_watcher]

[Oh. Wes sort of gets that when he wakes up again.]

Oh.

Sorry. I was tired.

Give him a good thirty minutes to reply to that

[god_is_a_dude]

[...Oh look they replied]

...Why would you apologize for that?

[the_ex_watcher]

Erm . . . overreacting, I suppose. I assumed that your comment earlier was meant to imply that I had done little to aid the battle, a sort of, "why do you need to sleep if you've not done anything," and so I replied rather snappishly on that assumption, because I was tired.

And now I'm over-explaining myself, so I'm just going to stop there.

[god_is_a_dude]

...Dude you're like twice as old as I am, you don't need to explain that much or apologize for being tired or something. That's just strange.

[the_ex_watcher]

I don't apologize unless I've done something wrong. In which case it isn't strange, it's polite.

[god_is_a_dude]

[...Point]

So what's your name then?

[the_ex_watcher]

Ah, Wesley Wyndham-Pryce. At your service.

And you?

[god_is_a_dude]

'M Haruki, chief of the SOS-Brigade.

[the_ex_watcher]

It's a pleasure to meet you.

[god_is_a_dude]

...Yeah, nice to meet you too.

[the_ex_watcher]

Is there something about my being polite that's making you uncomfortable?

[god_is_a_dude]

[...Aside from he's tempted to call this guy "sir" and it's making him think of Okabe, no]

2/2

[god_is_a_dude]

Nah, it's alright. You're just a bit older by the standards of here. Well the humans, anyway.
