[Actually collecting and measuring loss has taken its toll on Archie today. He's at a corner table of Good Spirits tonight instead of his usual spot at the bar, looking unusually blank.]

[ eventually, she brings him a drink. ]

Hey.

Hello. [The blankness breaks when he looks at her and accepts the drink and takes a sip.] Thank you.

[...]

I know a few stories that probably wouldn't be too atrocious. [Probably failing to realize that he's exactly what she needs a distraction from. But, still. Levity. This is the best he can do under his own volition.]

[ written? hmm. she wouldn't have replied -- oh how she hates writing. so finicky. but it's giles. ]

Hit me with your best not-too-atrocious shot.

[He tries to think of one that doesn't end tragically. But most of these he remembers from his grandmother, from her training, and there were no happy endings.]

[The bar, huh? That's a place where this guy crashes in pretty often but has never really rped with Buffy yet wtf. Normally he asks for coffee or whiskey at times, today after sneezing he's just asking for juice and sitting sheepishly at the bar.]

[ it doesn't take her long to bring over a tall glass -- complete with ice cubes and a cute little umbrella. she likes dressing the non-alcoholic drinks up. ]

There you go.

[Action] flamesofanger April 9 2011, 14:34:57 UTC

[He nods slowly and stares at the glass, he kind of expected just a plain glass with juice. Poking the umbrella a bit.]

Thanks... I don't think I've seen you dressing other drinks like this before.

Do you know the story of the adventures of the pork meatbun?

[voice] slaying April 9 2011, 14:49:29 UTC

...Pork meatbuns have adventures?

[voice] justonename April 9 2011, 15:05:58 UTC

Yes! In the land of the delicious food, the country of meatbuns is the biggest one and it's constantly protected by the great hero, the pork meatbun!! I read it all in a book, do you want me to tell you the story, Buffy?

[Oh, yes, he knows you. But you don't know him. Blame a certain pirate for that.]

[voice] slaying April 9 2011, 15:07:20 UTC

H-have we met?

[ ...it's possible, she figures. she's been here a while. ]
