2nd ♱ [Video]

[The PCD clicks on to show a nimble blonde running through a kata in what looks like an abandoned work out room. It's a pretty good sized room, littered with old and mostly ruined training equipment, but Buffy's already cleared out a section in the middle, which is where she is at the moment; her movements are graceful and elegant, the routine

[Horst grins, though there's a small nod to indicate he's glad the ball didn't attack her again.]

Making a home with Spike now?

[Video]

[heartslain]

[She's going to- to- to do something to her stupid PCD for turning on like that. Eventually. Pouting aside, though, she shakes her head, looking a little excited.]

Nope! That part we've already got covered. But I've been looking for a good place to train for awhile, and I finally got around to checking out this place.

[ahandsomedevil]

Training? Good Lord, love, you put us all to shame. I break into a cold sweat when I think of exercise, does that count for something?

[He's, clearly, mostly teasing; it's hard to say if his physique is because he's a vampire or not, but he was in decent shape as a human.]

[heartslain]

[She arches an eyebrow at him, the corners of her lips quirking up as she laughs a little.] Uh huh. I can so tell that you're not in shape at all. Totally shapeless and everything.

[She shrugs a little after a moment though.] It's not like I've been slacking off since getting here, it'll just be nice to have a set place like this. When the fate of the world tends to depend on your physical state, you appreciate a good training space.

[marriedforlove]

You have accepted your suitor after all.

[heartslain]

[Blink. Sorry, Buffy doesn't have a clue what this lady means.] Huh? My suitor? [Is she talking about Spike?]

[marriedforlove]

[She so very does.]

William, was that not his name? Your suitor of the poetry.

[heartslain]

[Ahh. So she met 'William' last week. Got it. This- is a little awkward.]

Uh, yeah, about that- His real name is Spike. Well, kind of, because his name used to be William, but that was, like, centuries ago, and he's been using Spike for longer than he used William, so William? Not so much his name. And- I guess you could say I accepted him? We've been- dating... for awhile.

[Are they dating? Do you call it dating when they've been through everything they have? Maybe?]

[Video]

[heartslain]

[Have a wounded pout for that.] Hey! You didn't find anything either, so no flack from the peanut gallery, got it?

[She's- not even going to acknowledge the ball comment.]

[Video]

[heartslain]

Kinda? There's a good path through some buildings for most of the way, but there's two spots where there's no cover at all. [Wince. Sorry, she knows it's not the best news, but it's better than some other places they've looked at, at least.] It's not too long, just kind of a long dart from one building to the next.

[heartslain]

[Oh hi person she remembers being a brother and she's been avoiding! Well, she's talking to Horst again, so- time to branch out to the rest of that fake family too? Buffy shrugs easily, shaking her head.]

No way. I'm way tougher than I look, you know. A little fall like that isn't going to so much as dent me.

[And then she's kind of looking back at Harry. After all, she's seen a little bit of what's happened over the past couple weeks, even though she was hesitant to talk to him. How do you even handle something like that? "Oh hi, I've been avoiding you even since I realized you weren't really my brother. How do you feel after what just happened?"]

[Video]

[heartslain]

[Hey, it's not like she doesn't care. She's just not sure what to do about it. One 'Dawn' she could handle. A whole family is, well, a bit tougher.]

Not house. [Have a little bit of a smile.] Training space. Kinda lacking around here, but a girl's gotta keep in shape, you know. So I've been looking for awhile.

[thelonegenin]

[Have a laughing ninja. All for you!]

[heartslain]

[POUT!Glare! You hush, kid.] What're you laughing at?

[thelonegenin]

[Trying to get his breath back.]

Ah. You-- You fell over.

[heartslain]

Anyone would if they got attacked by a runaway ball. [Yeah, you just keep laughing, buddy. And she'll keep an eye on the network to see the next time the PCD catches him in a bad position.]
