His body still ached. A part of him couldn’t acknowledge what had happened to him, how Klaus had captured and possessed him. He couldn’t do anything about it. It was as if he was watching what Klaus was doing but was unable to stop him. This frustrated him more than he wanted to admit - not that anyone was banging down his door. Luckily, his life

Buffy was pretty sure that this wasn't anyone's game.

Granted, she didn't have any other answers, but yanking her out of a portal through time takes some pretty big doing and didn't give her the fun and games feel. In fact, she isn't really feeling much of anything other the warm body she's hitting as she gets spit out of the portal and followed by the ground as they both collapse into it.

"Ow," she groaned, before pushing herself up onto her hands and then looked at the guy beneath her in confusion. "Oh. You're not Willow."

[isaywe_party]

She glanced back over to him before shrugging. "It's a long story."

[gradesbuzzed]

"What are the chances this is a European castle?" he asked, looking at her.

[isaywe_party]

Her head tipped to the side. "I have no idea. I didn't study castle history when I bought mine.

[gradesbuzzed]

Well, Buffy? What good were you? He stopped, turning to her completely. "I don't know what's going on." This was apparent but it helped to voice it.

[isaywe_party]

She was very good! If the question was about something violent, she would have been right there with the answer.

"Neither do I. Which means we should probably keep walking."

[gradesbuzzed]

"After you," he said, holding his arm out. He was a gentleman. At times.

[isaywe_party]

Buffy didn't mind taking the lead. It was what she did, after all. She started to make her way closer to the castle, looking around and trying to find a sign of something.

"Maybe there are people around somewhere?"

[gradesbuzzed]

He made a face as if to say, "Maybe" without actually saying it out loud, choosing, instead to follow the blonde as he scanned their surroundings.

It didn't take her long before she managed to track down a small village of huts, not too far from the castle. This area actually looked lived in, and she glanced back at him with a shrug.

"This looks promising."

[gradesbuzzed]

"People live here," he said, basically agreeing with her. "Or, did at one time."

[isaywe_party]

"So if we find the people, we find our answers," she nodded. "You take the left, I'll take the right?"

[gradesbuzzed]

"First one who finds someone, scream," he said, heading to the right bunk. Slowly, he made his way up the steps. Giving a glance at Buffy, he looked back and stepped inside.

[isaywe_party]

Buffy nodded and made her way to the opposite one, keeping her head low and just making her way though the buildings.

"What would I give if I could live out of these waters..."

Blaine was doing something that the people of the village had come to get used to. He was singing. Well. But, then again, there wasn't much that Blaine didn't do well. And in this case, it helped him cope. Because, he needed to cope with being ripped from Lima, ripped from Dalton.

Bright side, ripped from certain Gap related humiliations. But, not bright side, the biggest ego around was there with him, had been there before him. Jesse always knew more. He was more experienced. More talented.

Kind of irresistible in a way.

He also wanted to strangle the guy.

Which was why he was currently behind his hut - house - whatever it was and not inside. And singing. Jesse had gone for a walk and Blaine couldn't just be...cooped up like that. So, he sang.

"What would I pay to spend a day warm on the sand. Betcha on land, they'd understand that they don't..."Blaine turned, spotting Buffy Summers. Oh, hey, it was she of the vampire killing. He waved, stressing the next line

[isaywe_party]

Buffy was just going to stare for a while. Just because she can.

And then proceed to be very confused by this strange singing boy in a prep school uniform.

"Sorry -- do we know each other?"
