A-patrolling we will go [RP for [livejournal.com profile] allerdyce_john]

Buffy took the subway mostly because walking would take too long. She had stakes tucked in her bag, she'd left a note for Danny (who was working a homicide case)and now she was walking through Central Park. She had her phone on vibrate because nothing ruined a sneak attack like a cell phone ringing. She was supposed to meet Pyro here and they were going to find some vampires to light up. It shouldn't be hard, they loved Central Park like Buffy loved shoes.

Buffy reached over and lightly smacked him on the shoulder. "alright Mr. Sharkie," she teased him. "For the record, Kendra named it. I don't actually have any named weapons. Except my Scythe and it's always my Scythe with a capital S not the scythe or a scythe. it's a slayer scythe, made especially for the current slayer. It's all tied up in mystical power and slayer power and I don't even know what all but I know I hold it and it feels like mine. Willow used it's power to make all the slayers and then gave it back."

"And you keep all of these weapons in your coffee table?" He arched a brow at her. "You gotta be kiddin' me."

"The stakes are in a shoe box in the closet so I can get to them without Danny noticing," Buffy said. "The scythe, crossbow, short sword, multiple daggers, bolts, and bottles of holy water are in the chest that doubles as a coffee table. Yup. Honestly, I like sleeping with the scythe under the bed but there's just no way that's going to fly with Danny until he knows."

"I'm glad the only thing I ever need is a spark from this lighter. I've got this flame thrower device at home but as for the rest of the weapons, guns and all that shit, they're at the base." Including a few nuclear warheads but he wasn't about to mention that. "So these vampires and demons you fight, do they know where you live?"

"Well, in all honesty, all I need is me. I'm really big on preaching to the girls that they are weapons all by themselves. Stakes, swords, crossbows and scythes are like really great shoes. Just accessories but they're fun," Buffy told him she shuddered at the idea of vampires and demons knowing where she lived. "In Sunnydale they did. Xander, one of my best friends, was a carpenter and he rebuilt things in my house all the time. Here, they don't. Yet. Vampires can't come in without an invite so that's not as a big a deal. Demons don't need an invite. Right now, I'm not sure anyone knows I'm here."

She paused and shrugged one shoulder. "There are sort of...dupes of me all over the place. Slayers that are about the right build and height, blonde all running around with the name Buffy Summers. There's 3 of them. Slayers all over the world and I'm the one to kill."

"Hn. They're always gonna want to put down the leader of the pack. Having a few of you running around out there isn't such a bad idea. Maybe I should consider getting decoys." Pyro managed a grin.

"And I'm not at all surprised that all you need is you. You're all sorts of skilled at martial arts and you're strong. I gotta admit I'm pretty fucking dependent on my powers. I hate close combat situations without the use of fire." He smirked a little. "I guess I tend to cheat during a fight. Like I'd manipulate a flame into the shape of a giant fist and solidify it enough to crush my opponent. Or create a giant bird and have that lift things up into the air. When I first had this power though, all I could do was act like a human flame thrower device but I've managed to develop it in the past couple of years."

"The decoys were Giles' idea. I was actually kind of against it. It paints a huge target on the girls but so far, they're doing pretty well," Buffy said. A look that was obviously impressed came across her face when he talked about his powers.

"That's pretty fucking amazing. I mean I was thinking human flame thrower too and that's cool in itself but apparently you're beyond cool."

"The one thing I'm still pissed about right now is that I can't create fire. I just can't do it. At first, I thought it's like one of those things I might be able to get to do once I'm a little older, you know like a secondary mutation or whatever but so far, nothing." He shrugged.

"But anyways, what about watchers like Giles? Do they have powers, supernatural abilities? I mean how did he become a watcher? Did he get recruited?"
