[ Okay. So he'd read this hours ago, thinking that he might be able to formulate some kind of a casual reply to this, but so far, he's still coming up blank.

John thinks he should maybe ignore this and pretend he never read it. Hell, the number of times he'd failed to check the network posts, and he just had to scroll through the damn thing today. ]

Sorry about Giles. [ Well, fuck. At least that's a start. ]

[Oh God, she's dying anew of embarrassment. It'll take her a few minutes to respond and when she does, she sounds deeply embarrassed. She's also grateful, that he picked something very unsexy to comment on.]

Thanks. He was--I miss him. And we destroyed all the magic in the world so Willow couldn't bring him back. [Yeah that was a consideration.] Not that I should have because he's Giles and I know he's doing the heaven thing and he's happy there and so I shouldn't want him pulled out of Heaven but...[A very tiny, small, pouty, little girl voice] I'm selfish.

You're not selfish.

How long were you back home for? Do you know?

6 months or so. It was--the City looks--I mean by comparison and hey you get me back incapable of completing thoughts unless it's about my sex life which I am not going to add details to. Maybe, curse says otherwise. I'm sorry.

Nothing to be sorry for. You seemed a little stressed. [ Which would explain the tl;dr. He'd go on to talk about how he had felt during the curse, and that Buffy hadn't been alone in feeling all that confusion, only Pyro isn't that open about his feelings. Reason #354 why they haven't figured shit out yet so have some more of that awkward silence instead. ]

Yeah. Home was--you know. I mean at least part of it. Now. [There's another awkward silence on her end this time.] Thanks for the whole...understanding thing.

Yeah, except I don't get quite get how the apocalypse started. What happened there? [ Cause saying that it's due to her having sex with some... whatever the fuck dude named Angel just doesn't make any sense to him. ]

[She pinches the bridge of her nose because she knows the curse won't let her avoid this question regardless of how much she wants to.]

When I made all the slayers, slayers I was messing with the magic. It wasn't supposed to work that way. To make a very long story short...I was getting all the magic in the world and somehow so was Angel. Like--yin and yang maybe? So all the sudden I could fly and I was faster than a speeding bullet and Angel was my green rock thingy. Anyway, he came to see me and he had this stupid theory that because we were yin and yangy we were supposed to be together. I kept telling him he was a giant idiot but...it sounded....nice. For once, according him, me being happy was going to save the world. SO I...happied. Several times. Once with flying and--anyway--I'm sorry, this is a curse and I can't help telling you about the--anyway, soul didn't go away but there was more--we were like picked to be Adam and Eve except we had to leave the world and go to this...Garden of Aiden [She means Eden, really.] but when ( ... )

[ Yeah. By this point, he pretty much gets the 'happy'. ] Think we already got passed that.

So it should be smooth sailing from here.

[Awkward pause because yeah she just--]

Not that--I mean it's not that I don't want--I'm just--if we did decide there would be no worrying over the whole evil apocalypse...shoving my foot so deeply in my mouth I won't ever speak again. Be right back.

You know, I was worried you wouldn't show up here again.

[That makes her smile, despite everything that she's gone through at home. It gives her the warm fuzzies in the pit of her belly and that's a very good feeling.]

You kidding? You can't get rid of me that easy. I'm the come back girl. Literally. I died twice and I'm still here. Arguably three times.

[And bonus, he knows what disaster dating her would be. Or at least by reading the above, he should. It makes for a happy Buffy.]

We could do pizza. Like, celebratory pizza. After midnight. When I'm not cursed and I won't feel the need to discuss sex with you.

Pizza sounds good. But hold on. [ Two to three times? ] You're not like an unusually hot zombie or something, right?

[That makes her laugh a little and grin because hey! Cute boy she likes just said she was unusually hot. She is still very much a teenage girl sometimes.]

Nope. I'm heart beating and body temperature having. Plus, no craving for brains. We're good.

Once I was only dead for like five minutes. I drowned. Xander knew CPR. The second time...was more complicated but my best friend at home is--was a really powerful witch and the third time was more...well still, Willow is a wicked wiccan. I got shot and flat lined. She fixed it.

You're like a cat with nine lives.

Anyways, if you want, I can pick you up shortly after midnight. I'm going to be hanging out at the station till then anyways. I was thinking I'd get the pizza and we can head over to my place?

Minus the leather and the whip. Most of the time. [Clearly cat and she jumps to catwoman.]

That sounds really great. [And she means it so very much, especially after the information overload he just got.] Thanks. [And not just for the pizza and the pickup.]
