[A man-- burly, dark haired, shirtless, hairy and lightly scarred with tiny brown wings flapping excitedly at his back-- can be seen holding what can only be his journal out in front of him. He is wide-eyed with curiosity and more than a little confusion ( Read more... )

[ much later -- perhaps after he's gotten settled? buffy reviews the conversations and with a bit of a wry smile: ] Found some friends from home, huh?

...Is that a compliment I spy in the middle of all that enabling, William?

[ a bit of laughter; oh my, but things are so much easier to be pleasant about since jack's return. ] Hotspur. Huh. Kinda sounds like the name for a spaghetti western.

I-- it'd be ungentlemanly to lie, Miss.

What? No, it's an English ship.

[ she's quite the sucker for a bit of flattery -- and so her smile sticks. ]

I figured. Y'know -- what with the accent.

[And William is a sucker for smiling women of nearly any sort, really. He smiles back, obviously pleased with himself.]

Not sure about your accent, myself. New South Wales, perhaps? [He doesn't know what Australians sound like, or, for that matter, Americans, if they sound different at all from proper Englishmen.]

Well, you could the south part right. South California, born and raised. Though I lived in Scotland for maybe a yearish before showing up here.

California? I never... Is that in... Spain? I've never proper been, outside duty and leave.

Ugh, I wish. Spain? Talk about a place to spend your summers. Nope -- the good old United States of America.

Oh, the colonies! Pardon me, miss; I never have heard how they talk, there.

Some people would probably tell you not to base your impression on the way I talk. But those people are sticks-in-the-mud and don't know how to have fun.

Oh, stuff; I cannot imagine hearing a word against you. Could your accent be so strange?

...You just met me. You never know -- a few more months of my babbling and you might just wanna start imagining all the words against me.

[ it sounds self-deprecating, but it's not. some rather confident snark, actually. ]

[Like most of Buffy's deeper snark, it flies right over William's head. Did that he know what 'sarcastic' meant, he would assume respectable women were not capable of it, if only as a courtesy.]

I may not be the best sort of gentleman, Miss Buffy, but I hope I'm not the sort of blackguard who'd think ill of an accomplished woman such as yourself. A good judge of character, I am.

Calling me accomplished before you even hear about my acc-- oh. Wait -- have you read the guide, then?

[ because there might be a paragraph in the new feathers guide about her defeating the third party's general. ]

There's a guide? I've seen no such thing.

Huh. You can go ahead and kick Archie in the shin for not sharing.

[ soon, a little helpful direction to the guide is scribbled to william, journal-wise. ]
