Okay, so...what's the deal? You deliberately miss the deadline and expect me to want to cooperate?

Right, I get it. I want you to do me justice too, because there's nothing worse than a blasé Cordy. I might be just too much for you to handle!

But we really need to talk about reconsidering the destination. I mean, really? I grow up on the hellmouth and you want to send me to some twisted half-inbred cousin? I'm not really aiming to be a glutton for punishment and I don't think I'm asking too much here, either. Running water? Central heating? Clothes from this century?

Also, my paid's run out. You might wanna do something about that sooner rather than later.

That's predictable.

[ No longer impressed. ]

[hybridize]

Some of us don't drink from bunnies, dear.

[misstactless]

Right, because I was totally picturing an innocent bloodbath.

[ She's harder to squick these days. ]

[hybridize]

That wouldn't make the hunt fun. [Which is really the point. Because he's a sadistic bastard.]

[misstactless]

It wouldn't fit the congenial but really psychotic monster motif, either. Which is pretty overdone, by the way.

[hybridize]

It isn't overdone if you're the one who has sparked the trend. [Like the Coco Chanel of supernatural psychopaths.]

They do say mimicry is the highest form of flattery.

[misstactless]

Oh please. Everyone wants to claim Dracula but I hear he's a pretty dull guy.

[hybridize]

I predate Vlad by about 400 years, dear.

[misstactless]

[ Oh, well. ]

In that case you look good for a senior citizen.

[hybridize]

Call it good genes. [Since his entire family are Originals.]

[misstactless]

I'm sure it has nothing to do with living off the blood of women and children for hundreds of years.

[hybridize]

Oh, men, too. I'm an equal opportunity sadist. [Grin.]

But sacrificing three women, well that's how I got to this point. [Four if you count the witch. Meh, she made her choice. Collateral damage.]

[misstactless]

And what's this point?

[ Gross. ]

[hybridize]

To utilize my entirety and not just one half.

[misstactless]

Oh great. Twice the homicidal inclination.

[hybridize]

Tell me, dear girl-- [A smirk rises, but it isn't from amusement. There's more pain behind his words, but it's schooled in age and hidden behind an intensity in his eyes, a hunger.]

Do you know what it's like to have a part of you cursed, completely immobilized?

[misstactless]

[ If this were any other situation Cordelia might back down, but as it stand she feels pretty protected on Dear_Mun. ]

Immobilized? No. But I do know what it's like to see the future, and buddy? Yours isn't looking so great.

[hybridize]

It's actually starting to look up for once.

[misstactless]

See, that's the thing about the bad guys; they always get what's coming to them.
