I'm getting tired of this town. Of course that could just be the nauseating level of holiday cheer that's been going on around me. Ok, yes I normally used to like holidays, I think I've become anti-cheer. I don't think I'll find less cheer elsewhere. Although I could be wrong about that, they did all just survive some major apocalyptic thing so

Look I'm not here for nefarious purposes. If I was I'd be twirling my mustache and chuckling evily. I'm just here to talk to the current slayer.

And since I don't really have a home anymore it's not terribly out of my way.

I know I'm a bit of an ass. Especially to watchers, you can blame Kit for that.

I just want to thank her for something, no big deal, I'll make it in a public place if that lowers your threat meter to yellow ok?

[bunny_hater]

You do know that real evil doesn't twirl their mustaches, don't you? Some of them don't even have mustaches, and when they chuckle they sound like Xander does after sucking the air out of a balloon. Well, or that noise the garbage disposal makes, depending on the species.

*waves a hand at Giles*

Don't mind him, his threat meter is always on orange or red, whatever color you people use to describe highly suspicious. He can't help it, his britishness makes him very repressed sometimes and this is what happens.

*smiles adoringly at Giles*

If it makes you feel better, he can meet Buffy in the back room where you can keep an eye on him, Giles.

*glances back at Tristan*

Although I think Buffy can take him if he tries anything sneaky. He doesn't look all that threatening to me.

[_giles_]

Yes, thank you again, Anya.

And I am not repressed. I think its fair to say that we shouldn't go around giving out Buffys personal information to every Tom, Dick and Haryy that walks in here. Do you really think that if he did have bad intentions he would come in here and say, "Yes, I am so and so and I plan to kill and or maim your slayer today"? No, they would come in here under the pretense of wanting to thank them for something and you would offer them a compass and a map.

*looks back to Tristan*

My apologies. I suppose I could speak with Buffy and if she wishes to speak to you we could arrange to do so here.

[tristan_cohen]

Really that's all I'm asking. You all can be loaded for bear if you like. I'm fairly harmless, just annoying.

You know you get that same pulsing vein in the temple that Kit used to when we talked, that must be a watcher thing.

[bunny_hater]

Well, his name's not Tom, Dick or Harry, and he's clearly a human, Rupert. I may be inappropriate at times, but I would not just hand Buffy's personal information over like a sales flyer. And if you think he could actually kill Buffy then you haven't been paying attention to her these past few years. If I were Buffy, I'd be insulted right now that you think she can't defend herself against him.

*glares at Giles while grabbing a piece of note paper and a pen and handing it to Tristan*

Here, write down how we can contact you after his britishness over there talks to poor helpless Buffy.

*stands on her tip toes in the back trying to reach the chocolate she knows Dawn hid there*

Stupid taller than me little sister.

*ducks as a box falls to the ground making a crash*

Oops. Oh...it's the ugly candle holders. That's not too bad of an oops.

*makes a face as she notices some stinky herbs fell out too*

Oh that's bad. A very bad oops.

*walks out of the back room to find Giles*

Giles some stinky herbs fell in the back along with the ugly candle holders.

[bunny_hater]

You didn't break them, did you? Because I'll have to charge you if you did.

*looks at Giles*

I can charge her, right? With the 10 % off, of course.

[slayer_b]

Hey! It's not my fault someone stacked the boxes in a way that could easily fall. I could have been hurt and then I could have sued for bodily injury from attack of ugly candle sticks and stinky herbs.

*looks at Giles*

You wouldn't charge me for the ugly candlesticks right, Giles?

[_giles_]

*looks at Buffy and then Anya*

Yes, yes well we can certainly discuss that later. Buffy this gentleman here was looking to speak to you.

*moves off to introduce Buffy to Tristan*

Buffy, this is Tristan Cohen.

*to tristan*

Mr. Cohen this is Buffy Summers.

[tristan_cohen]

This is Buffy?

*looks her over*

The way all the monsters talk about you I thought you'd be taller.

[slayer_b]

Hey! I'm plenty tall. Not everyone can be freakishly tall like their candy hiding little sisters.

Besides, I'm just the right height to stake the vampires.

*eyes him*

Why are you talking to monsters about me? Okay, wait, if you're the new big bad in town whose come to warn me that you plan to kill me or whatever? Can you wait until I get Giles to retrieve the chocolate out of the backroom?

[tristan_cohen]

Big bad?

Huh...oh no wait I'm not a bad guy, jeez do I look that evil this is like the third time since I got here that people have accused me of being bad.

No, my sister was the slayer before you. India Cohen.

I wanted to find you and thank you for killing Lothos. That's all.

[slayer_b]

Oh. Well, no, it's that you have the muwhaha evil look about you, but sometimes it's the cute ones who are all with the 'I want to kill the slayer and make a name for myself' stuff.

Oh. Um, I'm sorry about your sister. No thanks needed on Lothos.

[tristan_cohen]

*looks at Giles*

See I told you there would be mwuhaha laughter going on.

I swore I'd kill him, but I think it's pretty much a better outcome that you did it. I'd have been a capri sun for sure. So yeah there was kind of thanks needed.

And I'm not a freakishly tall little sister but I can probably reach the elusive chocolates for you.
