Seventh Slay [Video] Hit me with your best shot. Fire away!

[whattingawhat]

[Buffy is clearly at the gym. She has her hands wrapped and she is taking out her frustration on the punching bag. Her breath is coming in little puffs and there's a sheen of sweat on her skin so she's been at this for a while now]

I [punch]

should [punch]

have [punch]

known [punch]

he's [punch]

a jerk [very hard punch that makes the bag swing perilously on its chain]

way [steady the bag and punch]

too [punch]

pretty [punch]

not [punch]

to be [punch]

[She rests a moment, contemplating the camera.]

Plus. My luck. Not the greatest romantically if you know what I mean.

[and then a flurry of kicks that yes...yes that would be Buffy killing the punching bag. It swings wildly on it's chain then snaps and hits the floor with a thud]

Oops

Just because you wanna shack up with your roommate and not me is no reason for you to be mad. I'm the one who deserves anger. You can't play with people's hearts like that!

[Voice]

[perspectiveguy.livejournal.com]

You're with Buffy? She never mentioned you...

[Voice]

[a-bad-guy.livejournal.com]

What?? Who the hell is this?

[Voice]

[perspectiveguy.livejournal.com]

Xander. Buffy's best friend. And you got on her bad side. So, I'm -- not really yours. But, I do admit I don't know you, guy who pissed Buffy off.

[Voice]

[a-bad-guy.livejournal.com]

What the hell? She's on my bad side.

[Voice]

[perspectiveguy.livejournal.com]

You're on each other's. What happened? Maybe I can help?

Re: [Voice]

I do not want to shack up with Tarrant. He is my friend. I've explained this to you. Seriously. You may be that pretty but you are not that dumb.

Re: [Voice]

[a-bad-guy.livejournal.com]

Dumb?!?! You didn't even know how to use nunchucks. Why live with the guy then? Huh? You know it drives me crazy but you still do it! If you loved me you'd move out.

Re: [Voice]

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

Seriously? We're using that as a barometer? Because he's my friend. Why live with Hardison? Do you want to shack up with him?

I do! But you drive me insane!

[Voice]

[a-bad-guy.livejournal.com]

What?? It's a decent barometer. He's a guy! You should live with girls!

Yeah? Well you drive me batty too.

Re: [Voice]

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

It's a--nevermind. [The idiocy almost reaches the heights she's used to living with a couple hundred teenage girls] You're so going to feel like a jackass when you meet Tarrant. Also, Hello. My name is Buffy is and Eliot I've had sex with a girl. So really you're just gonna have to trust me.

I'm being good!

[Voice]

[ageoftheg33k.livejournal.com]

...Uh, Eliot?

[Voice]

[perspectiveguy.livejournal.com]

You know Eliot?

[Voice]

[ageoftheg33k.livejournal.com]

Yeah, we're fr-- roommates. He's just-- don't rile him up too much, dude. Trust me.

[Voice]

[perspectiveguy.livejournal.com]

I think we've stopped conversing.

[Voice]

[ageoftheg33k.livejournal.com]

Probably a good thing.

[Voice]

[a-bad-guy.livejournal.com]

What?

[Voice]

[ageoftheg33k.livejournal.com]

You think, maybe. You think you're overreacting a little bit? [Yes, even across the Network, he's flinching.]

[Voice]

[a-bad-guy.livejournal.com]

What?

WHAT THE HELL Hardison? I thought you of all people would have my back in this. If all you're here to do is tell me I need help too then go back to whatever cause Buffy and her other friend or boyfriend or whatever the hell he is are already on top of it. You're fuckin' late to the party.

[Voice]

[ageoftheg33k.livejournal.com]

It's just a question, chill! Seriously, dude, take a breath you look like your head's gonna pop off. I'm just saying -- what's all this crazy drama gonna do but make you look crazy --ier?

[Voice]

[10shlling6pence.livejournal.com]

...WHAT?

[Voice]

[a-bad-guy.livejournal.com]

Yeah you. I know you're sleepin' with her.

[Voice] - also, i love you guys, so goddamn much

[10shlling6pence.livejournal.com]

---[there's no words here--just sputtering--he gets up and walks away--and comes back, sputtering]

...PREPOSTEROUS!! In no way, any way, in any other way that I could possibly SAY it to you, SIR, no, no, no, no, no, no AND NO.

The NERVE! Disgracing my honor--and--and her VIRTUE! Why--!!

[Voice] - awww we heart you too!!

[a-bad-guy.livejournal.com]

Don't lie to me!

...

...Your honor???

[Okay so here's a whole new kind of angry.]

As if she's so bad to be havin' sex with. She's pretty damn good actually. What's so wrong with sleepin' with her? You got a problem with sexy women?

[Voice]

[10shlling6pence.livejournal.com]

I have not, would not, and WILL not over such a subject! I haven't--DONE ANYTHING.

--!![more sputtering--not that he can be seen, but he's bright magenta on his side now]

Of COURSE no--you--I would never THINK about such things let alone--!
