Xander leads Ori through the portal to Sunnydale and to his house. He unlocks the door to the sound of yelling. He walks in and into the kitchen where his parents are arguing. He pulls out a tape recorder, clicks it to record and then grins at Ori and whispers. "This is one of the only benefits of their fighting

Ori trots down the stairs, stifling a giggle. "My mom would never let me get away with that. That's really crazy."

[xanman_harris]

"Oh she'll try to deny it, hence the evidence." he wiggles the recorder.

[wannabeadeeva]

"Ooh, good thinking." She looks around the basement and gives a thumbs-up. "Looks great!"

[xanman_harris]

"Yeah, it's alright." he nods and takes the cushions off the couch. He pulls out the bed. "How many blankets do you usually like?"

[wannabeadeeva]

"Um, I'm good with one?" Ori doesn't want to cause too much trouble.

[xanman_harris]

"You sure? It can get a little chilly down here at night." he opens the linen closet. "Take as many as you need."

He pulls out a couple pillows.

[wannabeadeeva]

"Well, maybe two..." She pulls out two blankets and snuggles them. "Man, I am so grateful right now. It's been like two weeks since I've even seen a bed."

[xanman_harris]

"You should have said something, Ori. You're all the qualities of you I adore."

[wannabeadeeva]

She giggles and buries her head in the blanket, hiding a blush. "I didn't really want to bother anyone."

[xanman_harris]

"You're never a bother. Here, let me help you make up the bed." he takes a corner of one of the blankets from her.

[wannabeadeeva]

"Well, I feel like I am if I ask for a favour or anything." She helps him spread the blanket over the bed.

[xanman_harris]

"People that care about each other ask favors and give them when they're able. That's not a bother." He tucks the blanket under.

[wannabeadeeva]

"I've never been good at asking for favours. I'd usually rather die than do it." She laughs and sits down with a bounce on her newly made-up bed. "So, thanks."

[xanman_harris]

"Well you can ask me for anything, anytime and I'll see what I can do." He tosses the pillows on to the bed.

[wannabeadeeva]

She sets them up at the head and lies back, grinning and wiggling her toes. "Okay, I'll remind myself of that if I need anything."

[xanman_harris]

"Want me to show you around the house?"
