Fourth Slay [Video] Got a body like a battle axe

[The video comes up on one blonde slayer peeling tape off her hands. The video shifts up a bit to her face covered in a light sheen of sweat. There's a nasty bruise on her cheek and her lip is split but clearly it's already healing. She's out on the obstacle course.]

Plus side to being here? With dinosaurs, live action video games and the Underground I'm guessing there's no apocalypse in May.

Well it doesn't have a The in front of it and it's a little a.

[he takes a look around himself with a proud smile; he nods, gesturing--]

Actually, I could--I'm moving new tables into the parlor area, as well as a stove soon--for the tea, of course. And various confectionery.

I should have them in a few days, and I could honestly and completely use all the help I could get with that...I would be incredibly grateful.

[So many heavy things.]

Good point.

[Eying up those bruises, but instead of worry, she smirks.]

Should we get a load of the other guy?

I think so too. No hesitation. Hesitation's where you start getting into trouble.

Oh come on... no one's ever handcuffed you to the bed during sex?

[Good thing Tarrant has a pack mule aka slayer for a room mate]

I'm your girl then. Point me where to go and keep breakables out of the way.

Well he's not have a vendi latte and beating up a punching bag this morning.

You've got to get a running start and then just...leap. That way you don't have time for regrets or should haves or what ifs

Re: [Voice]

Not during sex.

I'm the one who does the handcuffing.

[See her control/entrapment issues there Eliot]

[Lucky Tarrant is sooo lucky. He grins and nods, almost bowing his head a little, in gratitude]

Thank you, fifty and a hundred times! I'll tell you when they're being moved in. That would be a gloriffic help.

[and in the process of thinking of how to repay her, he remembers why she came over in the first place--he drops his tools and gestures, walking around his table]

Oh! Here--come, come, come--all this talk, and it's already slipped my mind!

[identity profile] fromlegal.livejournal.com 2010-08-05 06:37 pm (UTC)(link)
No, I suppose not. Are apocalypses something you're rather familiar with, then?

[identity profile] whattingawhat.livejournal.com 2010-08-06 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
Like shoes and chcoolate.

[identity profile] bloodcakedarmor.livejournal.com 2010-08-06 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
Exactly. I've been told that that's reckless and will get me in trouble but... just how I am.

[Voice]

[identity profile] a-bad-guy.livejournal.com 2010-08-06 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
Good to know. I'll keep that in mind.

Re: [Voice]

[identity profile] whattingawhat.livejournal.com 2010-08-06 03:14 pm (UTC)(link)
It is reckless and it probably will get you in trouble but sometimes that's the only way to handle things.

Re: [Voice]

[identity profile] whattingawhat.livejournal.com 2010-08-06 03:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Planning on letting me handcuff you anytime soon?

[Voice]

[identity profile] a-bad-guy.livejournal.com 2010-08-06 05:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't rule it out.

[If Eliot had it on video he'd see a grinning Buffy, as it's not...well it's possible the smile comes through in her voice]

Ooooh doesn't mind letting me be in--wait. You aren't planning on going evil or trying to suck the world into hell, are you?

[Voice]

[identity profile] a-bad-guy.livejournal.com 2010-08-06 08:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Sweetheart, I might be evil sometimes and I might even be goin' to hell. But that doesn't mean anybody else has to go there.

Okay well you get gold stars for the day.

[Buffy follows Tarrant, curious as to what he's made with her in mind]

Yes! Presents of the nonbirthday or Christmas kind

[Which are the best as far as she's concerned]

[Voice]

[identity profile] a-bad-guy.livejournal.com 2010-08-07 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
That a good thing?

Obviously you were never a kindergartner or a cheerleader. Gold stars mean you're super special...or that you don't pee your pants. One of the two. Which could lead to super special in an entirely other way. We're going with super special in the don't pee your pants way.

Oh, yes--a very merry unbirthday, as it is! I'll have to ask you at a later date about this Christmas--someone else mentioned it to me before...

[he walks to his forest of mannequins, walking between them--he finally finds the right one and carries it out and puts it before her with a smile]

What do you think...?

[it seems he's tried to tackle some modernish looks, but mostly retains his classic victorian design--the dress (http://static1.modcloth.com/productshots/0035/6206/11555-1.jpg?8f16195404b3f179d560c00e619fbd5d8515942f) is a warm green, the bow around the waist a striking gold. The jacket (http://static0.modcloth.com/productshots/0045/4780/15043-1.jpg?8f16195404b3f179d560c00e619fbd5d8515942f) is a warm chocolate brown, the cuffs matching the belt on the dress.]

[There's a gasp and Buffy makes a circle around the mannequin then looks back up at Tarrant with a giant smile on her face]

Tarrant...this is incredible.

[She reaches out to touch the skirt of the dress, the edge of the belt then the shoulders of the jacket.]

For me? Really?
