Not so good....

The social worker wasn't overly impressed my nurturing skills. She has put me on probabtion and if she doesn't see improvement (aka me finding a job) within 2 weeks, they're going to take Dawnie. Doesn't she know that I'd have a job if I could find the time to go hunting for one? This is so frustrating. Dawn got a job before me. I'm starting to

I don't know what her problem is. I mean, Mom's life insurance should take care of most of the mortgage for a while, right? And I don't care if we have to live off of peanutbutter until you get a job -- it's better than some of the meals you've cooked, anyway.

[That was a joke, Buffy, don't get all snarly at me.]

[stakeandshake]

For a very little while, Dawnie. I know you don't care if we have live on peanut butter, but these people do.

[littlenibblet]

Geeeeez. I'm old enough to make my own decision about living on peanut butter. And you're old! What gives these people the right to make decisions for us?

If they try to take me away, I'm not eating. Period.

[stakeandshake]

You will eat no matter where you're at, Dawnie. I promise to try my best not to let them take you away. *hugs*

'Course she didn't much of your motherin' skills, Slayer. You stake and kill things, and get your jollies off doin' it. It's not in a Slayer's job description to be all nurturing-like.

Y'know, you could just stop slaying for a while. I've heard that Faith-bint is is town, and you know I can handle the demon side of things. And I know my ponce of a grandsire's been broodin' around. We can take care of all the nasties while you settle things for you and the Mouthful.

And don't go getting your panties all in a twist. 'M not offering any of this for your sake, I just happen to like the little Bit. Shet's been all worried about losing you since your mum's gone.

That, an I'm tired of your whinin' all the time.

*rolls eyes* She doesn't know all that, Spike. I think I might take up your offer, though. I'll have to talk to Faith. You know how she likes to run away for days and not tell us. I don't think she could stand to be confined to one place for more than 2 days.

Well, maybe there's a job open at the Magick Box. I can check!
I don't want Dawnie taken either. She's just fine where she is!

[stakeandshake]

that'd be great. thanks, tara!

[magickaltara]

Not a problem!

((OOC: job prop for Buffy? Should there be a job? Or no?))

[stakeandshake]

((she's gonna need one anyway. i'd rather her work at the magic shop then as a school counselor. XD how'd she get that job anyway??))
