On new account creation...

Buffy, I could see. Willow, I could respect. Even Giles, I could eventually forgive. Ripper's not a bad sort, once you get to know him.

But sharing a roster with Wyndam-Ponce? Not exactly what I had in mind. We've been together, what? Few years now. Think it might have earned me a bit of fair warning before inviting him in.

No, but you're right. Least it wasn't Mr. Broodypants himself.

And your indignation and superiority have nothing whatsoever to do with jealousy issues or attempts to vie for mun attention at all, I'm sure.

Hey, you think it's easy, living with Captain Kirk and Tony Fucking Stark in here? Do you hear me complaining, though?

Wesley's not even cool. How could someone who likes me like him?

[slay]

[ there's a look of confusion there for a long moment, because lbr the real question is how can someone who likes spike also like kirk and tony stark. he's not half as cool as he thinks he is. but buffy will catch up and realize that he ... sure really thinks he is. ]

... Right. Obviously. Because your company is much better served with a billionaire superhero and a starship captain. [ beat. ] A starship captain who captains actual people and not bugs. [ there's an unconvincing nod. ] Of course.

[idolstolemylook]

Well, yeah. Better than a bluestocking in trousers who--

Wait.

Bugs?

[slay]

Wesley's blue? [ no one is understanding anything here. she raises a hand to wave it off. ] Never mind. Don't wanna know. Point is, believe me when I say nobody who likes you likes you because of your cool factor, Spike. [ and she's most certainly not admitting that she's one of them because she'd rather pull his pigtails tbh. ]

[idolstolemylook]

How would you know?

[slay]

Must be my keen sense of intuition.

[ Enjoy this one, William. Enjoy it hard, because it'll be a dark day in hell before it happens again. ]

I may have to agree with you there.

[idolstolemylook]

Yeah, yeah, tear me down, black is white, I know this bloody tune, Watcher, I--

What?

[ex_chamomiles197]

It's an, er, rather bothersome situation. You act as if you're the only one who's ever had to share space with him.

This all depends on when, exactly, he's been ripped from our reality, of course. I've been told he got tolerable in the future.

[idolstolemylook]

Don't particularly want to tolerate him, Rupert. Said yourself it's not a good spot to be in.

[ex_chamomiles197]

Nonetheless, there is worse company. At least he doesn't make his way through the contents of your fridge like a wounded buffalo.

[ Still bitter about that time. Yup. ]

[idolstolemylook]

For a tiny thing, that Slayer sure can eat.

[hamshotfirst]

I sympathize with your plight, good sir. I myself must consort with Andrew Jackson. Jackson! Why is he worth twenty dollars???

[idolstolemylook]

Hmm. That's inexplicable, that is.

[hamshotfirst]

It is my consolation that he spends much of his time crying like a child and then having to re-apply his guyliner.

But pray: do tell of this enemy of yours.

[idolstolemylook]

Actually, that... sounds just about the same.

[hamshotfirst]

Really? And how is it you intend to defeat this Wyndam-Ponce?

[idolstolemylook]

I'd say ignore him, but I've not got a very good track record with the whole "patience" thing.

[broodmeister]

The feeling's mutual.

[idolstolemylook]

That would imply we have somethin' in common, cupcake.

[broodmeister]

If the alternative would mean being glad to share head-space with one of you?

I'll budge on this one.

[idolstolemylook]

Don't think there's any worry of that, on this end. Writer girl here likes you better'n she used to, but she's not likely to want to touch you anytime soon. An' if she did, the name she came up with?

"imnottheprincess"

[broodmeister]

[ ... :| ]

That's too long.

[idolstolemylook]

Fine. 'nottheprincess'?
