[020] [voice + action]

Jul 02, 2009 21:16

Nothing can excuse how I acted last week. I know I hurt a few people...

If I attacked you or someone you know, and you want some kind of revenge or compensation, I'll be waiting south of the village, where the river meets the woods.

Bring reinforcements, if you don't trust that I won't do it again.

I want to make this right.

Why can't you send balloons or a teddy bear with a cute little get well card, like normal people do?

[If he tries to reply back, he'll get no answer. She has closed to journal and left it at home. Instead, she's out a-lurking in the woods. Keeping an eye on things.]

[This is AFTER EVERY OTHER THREAD. ANYONE ELSE CAN START A THREAD BELOW THIS, this will just occur after that. If you want to jump on the Angel-slapping bandwagon, anyone, feel free.]

[Anyway, timeskip until after everything. Buffy's been around to see pretty much all of the above and below. They've got about forty-five minutes before sunrise, and it doesn't look like anybody else is showing up.

Angel's... still waiting in the rain though, where he's been all night. Just in case, maybe, but he looks like a muddy wet kicked puppy almost lost in thought.]

[Out from her little lurky neck of the woods, she arrives. Arms crossed and striding slowly, Buffy clicks her tongue softly at the sight of him. Muddy wet kicked puppy, indeed.]

Looks like we're making a habit of this. Y'know, the part where I swoop in and make sure you get home safely.

[He glances up at the sounds of someone approaching, then back down at the ground. Then up at Buffy again, as if something occurred to him. Now he's slipping off his coat and holding it over her head.]

It's raining. You should go home.

What? Don't I get my own chance at hitting you, too?

[She says this as though what she is really trying to say is: look how stupid this idea is, Angel.]

Besides, I'm not made out of sugar. I won't melt in a bit of rain. [But she isn't complaining about the makeshift shelter.]

Home is a place where we should be going, now.

[That didn't occur to him. No matter what voice she says it in, he's making sure the coat's gonna stick in place over her head, then he's stepping back, like he was before. It's clearly a 'go ahead and hit me' gesture.]

[She just stares at him. And stares, and stares. After about a good thirty seconds of staring, Buffy shakes her head, arms still firmly crossed.]

Angel, I'm not actually going to hit you. Well, scratch that. I might hit you--if I have to try and knock you out and drag you home, cave-woman style. But I don't particularly want to do that. I'd much much much rather it if you came willingly.

[Okay, so he's coming now. Be careful not to touch the outside of the coat, by the way, it's absolutely covered in mud. Not that his regular shirt is any better, now that it's been in the rain for a while too. In his opinion, only one of them needs to be dripping wet.

He's going to be pretty quiet on the way home, just so you know.]

[She's touched by the gesture. Really, she is. Even if she already got a good soaking from her earlier lurkage.]

Told you that they'd be more-or-less understanding.

[He's gonna nod and make a 'Mm' noise of agreement. He agrees with anyone Angelus hurt, at the moment.]

So, what was your big plan? Were you going to wait out there for people to come and smack you around until the sun came up, then sizzle?

I know you know it, but I was watching. Not really one of your cleverest plans, if you're hoping to make with the sizzle.

I wasn't. [That's referring to the sizzle. As for the 'big plan' question:] ...I don't know.

You were cutting it pretty close.

[And here comes the deep, fraught-with-emotion sigh.]

I don't enjoy seeing you like this, Angel. It's too many heaps of destructive and not enough sense.

Anyone can apologize. Angelus can apologize, even if he can't mean it...

I had to do this.

I get that. I really do. Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth. But too much of that and we're all left on the liquid diet.

[Oh wait. There's a head-scratcher.] Well, you're on it anyway--but I meant about not having teeth and having to have your food blenderized instead, which is not pleasant.

They can't actually hurt me. [Then again, Seifer left a nice blue bruise down the side of Angel's face. Buffy probably can't see that, though, until the mud's washed off.]
