002: [Action] Sometimes a fight is just what you need

[still_brooding]

[When night fell, Angel stopped lurking and decided to man up...so to speak. He'd spent days since the luau dancing around Faith, stifling awkwardness and pretty much stalking her. What could he say, stalking was sort of his MO. However, night meant monsters came out to play and while Faith was no damsel in distress, she'd confessed to having a few

[Faith let him lurk. It was his deal and she'd never exactly been Miss Confrontation anyway, though she'd been well aware of his habits. Another wonder at how Buffy fell for the creepy lurker who-- no, this wasn't the time.]

We could do that.
[She pulls out two ten inch knives and grins, knowing he'd be able to see her just fine.] Or we could do the job. C'mon, Angel, you got my got back now.

[Angel grins in response. Nice to see the awkward has disappeared. He rolls his neck and lets his game face take over. Weapons not necessary.]

Alright but things get too hairy and we're going in.

[Faith's not so sure about the game face. Not a personal problem, just the overall idea.]

[Angel shrugs in response because he's aware she doesn't have a personal problem with the face]

The teeth are a good weapon on their own. I'm stronger and faster like this.

[A pause because even though Faith's pretty okay with what he is, it's still embarrassing to admit. Then again he used to eat rats so monsters can't be any worse. He's betting they taste like hell though. In general the uglier the creature, the worse they taste. It's a thing]

And I'm hungry.

[That might have been said in a fairly quiet whisper]

{A snuffle emits from the darkness and rain, followed by a gruff belching roar. Something is tracking the vampire and the slayer, and the vampire isn't the only one hungry tonight...}

{OOC: Both Angel and Faith are welcome to jump in this thread and we will have a 1-2-3 comment log, if you wish. ;) }

[Angel looks over his shoulder and puts a hand to Faith's back.]

Let's move on.

[Faith turns as well, the color draining from her face at the sheer size of their new foe. Her heart rate jumps up as she and Angel begin to run.]

Oh, fuck me!

{Seeing that it's been spotted, the monster rises to its full towering height and lets out a blood-chilling roar, fangs dripping with green saliva and claws extended to rend and tear unresisting flesh.

It then drops to the earth and lunges, moving at tremendous speed for such a large beast. And it's heading right for the female...}
