7th Dusting

[makeitquick]

[So okay, earlier today, Melaka was on a ship. She said she'd sign up for it and she actually had a lot of fun touring around it, meeting people, and generally getting to know what was going on in the high seas. In any case, the point is that her spirits are much higher now than in December. So much so that when the makes it home and deals with Gates... she decides to finally try something she learned apparently is a check to see if people made it home she learned the other day.]

[Voice // Filtered to Harth (BROKEN)]

Hey, Harth- are... [it fails.] ...Hah. [She thought so.

She's not sure if she should feel empty or relieved. So about a month now, she knew this was going to be the case. She knew that Harth was gone. That's part of why she freaked out last month. But anyway, she now considers how she wants to spend her night? Patrol? No. Summers? Maybe, but not really. She considers... and for some reason her mind comes back to Azusa. She hasn't seen the other woman all day, but the idea of a beer with her sounds appealing right now. Well, she just made a filter, might as well make a another ones - last time she did it public, people commented on her after all]

[Voice // Filtered to Azusa (BROKEN)]

Azu, we gotta get a- [it fails.] ... Azu? C'mon, beer- [it fails.] ...Azu? [A pause. And she tries to flip through the journal to try to find that thing where he ping people. She's not there. Her voice actually sounds a bit scared] ...Azu? Azu, are you-? [It fails.

...It failed. She's... gone? She remembers the emotional reactions she's seen other people have. Buffy, when she was numb. That Cordelia woman just the other day. And during those times, she thought those people were just... silly. Because going home, that's the dream. she wants nothing more than to go home every single day she's here, there's no excepts. but right now, all that she knows is that most likely, she will never see Azusa Miura again. For some reason, she looks around her flat and sees some of the gifts she got some that woman. And... she... she's sad. She's really sad, for some reason. a lump is growing in her throat. Which is why this next part comes out throaty]

[Voice // Public]

...S-Summers. [F-fuck, she actually had her voice crack] ...Chief? Whoever. Let's get a beer.

[And even if Buffy refuses, she's going to be at the bar (Good Spirits, that is). she'll probably look silly because she'll be sitting next to a little stuffed dog as she nurses her... whatever. She doesn't even know what she's drinking. she doesn't even really care right now. The drinking isn't even a coping mechanism, not really. It's just that right now her body feels heavy and what she most wants to do (to be on a grab, to take something, to get in a fight) isn't incredibly possible here except in that stupid dome, which won't feel right and she knows it. ...Except maybe that Isaac guy? No, no. she's in a bad mood, she can't possibly focus for that sort of fight if he's at all what he talks like.

EDIT: for the broken filters feel free to assume any or all of that is public]

Usually dead people look a little too... dead. But you look pretty- ahh, glam too.

[makeitquick]

[What-] No I don't.

[In fact, she needs a nother drink for that. she's going to leap over the counter to get it herself]

[bamfing]

Sure you do! Like... you've got cool hair. Buffy's hair isn't that special. I bet she spends hours just trying to make it look that way.

[makeitquick]

Flattering me, mon--- Kurt.

[Siiiip]

[bamfing]

Trying. Is it working?

[makeitquick]

Little bit.

[She said as she flopped her head onto the counter.]

[bamfing]

Well, good! Glad to know it works.

[Now he can use it on his real girlfriend, mwahahaha.]

[makeitquick]

Right, right. Charmer.

[bamfing]

[He shrugs.]

Well, you know, I can't help it.

[makeitquick]

No doubt.

[Light eyeroll, but it's in "good" spirits on this counter]

[bamfing]

Well... anyway, if you ever get lonely or bored around here, stop by our place. You can come watch some movies. It's probably not as cool as what you have in the future, but we have some real classics. The perfect way to pass an evening in Luceti!

[makeitquick]

Mov... y'got flicks here? [She rolls her head to look at him better. Wow. she might just have to do that] I aud that.

[bamfing]

Aud away1 [... whatever aud means.] You can finally see the original Star Wars, or at least... after it was changed a few times.

[makeitquick]

Star Wars? ...Some kinda spacescope?

[bamfing]

... maybe? What's a spacescope?

[makeitquick]

Scope 'bout space.

[bamfing]

[Scopes... movies. Right.]

Ahh, right. Yeah, exactly like that. You'll love it. Everyone does!

[makeitquick]

Alright, Jake for me - when're we doing this?

[SIIIIP. Not today]

[bamfing]

Anytime you want.

[He folds his hands behind his head and leans back into open air. A normal person would fall over, but a normal person doesn't have feet and a tail like Kurt does.]

Just make sure to bring popcorn! It's tradition.

[makeitquick]

Huuuh~ Well, then I've got that. [Sip] Popcorn it is.

[bamfing]

Great! Movie night it is. I'll invite Melanie too. [Can't exactly have a movie night with another hot babe if his girlfriend isn't around, ya know.]

[makeitquick]

Might as well tell Chief to come too.

[By default. Another default might be Summers, or ... maybe - nah that's it]

[bamfing]

[A nod.] Well, seeing as how she lives there, she'd probably be annoyed otherwise.

[makeitquick]

Oh, point.

I'm awake to that.

[This is tone of "I knew that" when you clearly weren't think of it a moment ago]
