XXXIV -- video;

The Admiral's run out of ideas if he's doing this one again. We've already played this song, and if I end up dealing with undead copies of my friends again, I'll... well, I don't rightly know, but at least this time I know the real one's all right.

[Take that, undead Buffy.]

Still not clear how this whole deal's supposed to work. Did we just hit a dimension with really good reception?

I got that one! Maybe it's fixed now.

Fire Knox? I know he's-- We went out for drinks a few times, but it's over now, and he-- I don't think that's any reason to fire him.

Let's hope!

[bigbad]

Trust me, love, there's reason. He's... look, he's into some bad stuff. Really bad.

[1053point106xf.livejournal.com]

Are you sure you're doin' alright?

[bigbad]

Yeah, I'm fine. [He lets out a breath. He didn't really think he'd be able to convince her, anyway. But he had to try.] Just good to hear your voice.

[kelthuzad]

I remember being both, you see. Undeath is far preferable. I based a religion on it.

[bigbad]

Great, undead religious nuts. Just what the world was missing.

Huh. Believe me, I'm so far from interested that I'm... the opposite of interested, but why aren't you together? You sound like you like her.

[kelthuzad]

[A superior grin. Grins are easy when your face is a skull :c]

[bigbad]

The word's uninterested. And it's a bit more complicated than that. There's history.

[damselonlynot.livejournal.com]

Ugh. I hated history. Talk about boring. But I don't see why it should be a problem. I mean, whatever, right? History's totally in the past. If you like her, whatever you've got should be buried with George Washington.

[bigbad]

[That gets a grin out of him.]

Not terrible advice. [Not advice he's going to follow because it really isn't that simple, but he appreciates it nonetheless.] What if part of the history is us trying to kill each other for a while.

[damselonlynot.livejournal.com]

[She shrugs.] Freddy told me my new Gucci pumps were just "okay-looking" once. I think if I can forgive him for that, you two can forgive each other for trying to kill one another.

[bigbad]

[Amused.] Yeah, good point, those things are definitely comparable.

[Though Buffy has forgiven him for that much, he's pretty sure. After all, she was trying to kill him, too. But it's still complicated.]
