Jan 31, 2009 17:38

Mel collapsed on her broken down sofa and groaned. Tonight's patrol had featured a romp through the sewers and group of lurks two times more than what some of the locals had reported ( Read more... )

If Xander actually had a phone bill, it's possible he might get curious about the consistent usage spike around the 30th or 31st of each month, but let's face it, probably not. People get talky at the end of the month, evil attacks on Tuesdays...what else is new?

Since he didn't have a phone bill, through the wonders of Bridgetech, Inc, it really didn't bother him. Neither did calling long-distance to the future in another dimension just to say hi.

This number she did recognize.

"How's my favorite eye-patched former denizen of Fandom Island?" she said happily answering the phone.

"That kid with the prosthetic leg? I dunno - I haven't seen him since you guys graduated."

"Har-Dee-Rutting-Har," Mel said dryly. "I don't think I even know him. How's life treating you in the alternate future that I don't belong to?"

needsaparrot February 1 2009, 04:10:41 UTC

"It's an alternate past for you," Xander pointed out. He wiped a paint spatter off his forehead and added, "I've got a job now, so better than I could say a few months ago."

"I can never keep who comes from when," Mel said rubbing her head. "I also didn't know times were tough on former watchers. What's your job now?"

needsaparrot February 1 2009, 04:28:09 UTC

"Not so tough; not like Bridge didn't have a job. I just wasn't feeling the kept man life, you know?" He crooked the phone between shoulder and ear, resting his arms against his knees. "So he found me a spot doing maintenance and repair stuff for SPD."

"Ahh. Back to the fix-it guy role," Mel said closing her eyes. "Probably feels good to do familiar work."

needsaparrot February 1 2009, 05:00:14 UTC

"Sort of familiar," Xander said. "Paint's still paint and a ladder's still a ladder, but hell if I know what the windows I'm fixing are made of."

"Maybe they're made of candy," Mel suggested. "Have you tried licking them?"

needsaparrot February 1 2009, 05:13:51 UTC

"...That's the first time anybody's ever said that to me about windows."

cantjossme February 1 2009, 05:17:59 UTC

"I got thumped in the head tonight and then I talked to Sokka," Mel replied. "I might be a little loopy."

needsaparrot February 1 2009, 05:39:42 UTC

"You okay?" he asked immediately, all teasing gone from his voice.

cantjossme February 1 2009, 06:17:15 UTC

"Bad day. Other than that I'm okay," she said with a shrug. "I've had worse."

needsaparrot February 2 2009, 05:40:13 UTC

"I can't say I miss the vamps," Xander said. "The people, yeah. The bloodsuckers, not so much."
