Angel opened his eyes on his bed, his mind yet again filled with images of killing and drinking and carving.

Then he saw that he had a voicemailAfter listening to the message (but not checking his emails) Angel decided that denial was really going to be the order for the day ( Read more... )

"There may be a problem," Angel said to Marty as soon as he could close the door.

"If it's about the towels, I didn't realize they weren't complimentary," Marty qupped before he realized that Angel was more broody than his normal self. "What's up?"

Re: Angel's office notstakedyet June 13 2006, 19:54:35 UTC

"How drunk was I last night? How long we we together last night?" Angel asked. "I know Angela said three but - was I out of your sight for very long?"

"Well we left the hotel about eleven. Almost killed the speedwalkers around midnight and were together chasing that demony thing until around three or so and got back here around four-thirty AM," Marty said trying to remember. "After that I went to bed. Why do you ask?"

Re: Angel's office notstakedyet June 13 2006, 20:07:47 UTC

Angel drummed his fingers nervously against his desk.

"But the walls here are really thin, right?" he asked. "If I'd gone out, say, after we got home you'd have heard it?"

Re: Angel's office oatmanspatient June 13 2006, 20:15:11 UTC

Marty gave Angel a serious look. "I didn't hear anything after that but then again I don't have super stalker powers. Why are you asking me this, Angel? Wouldn't you know if you left the hotel or not?"

Re: Angel's office notstakedyet June 13 2006, 20:17:21 UTC

"Funny story about that," Angel said, looking uncomfortable. "Possibly not?"

Re: Angel's office oatmanspatient June 13 2006, 20:19:23 UTC

"Care to share?" Marty asked leaning forward. "Because like the girl says you suck at being cryptic."

Re: Angel's office notstakedyet June 13 2006, 20:28:34 UTC

"The past couple of nights I haven't been sleeping well," Angel said. "And I've been having these dreams about people dying. Just like it says in that article. Only I'm the one killing them."

Re: Angel's office oatmanspatient June 13 2006, 20:34:54 UTC

Marty didn't say anything for a while and let that thought sink in.

"I thought we took care of that problem back in November," he finally said looking very concerned.

Re: Angel's office notstakedyet June 13 2006, 20:37:42 UTC

"Maybe it's just dreams?" Angel asked. "I mean Callisto was talking about having these dreams about killing people. Maybe I've got what she's got. Of course she was also talking about being in love with me. Like my day isn't complicated enough. How do girls do that? Don't they know we need at least three months of warning to prepare? Because she's going to kill me. I know it. You'd think going to a different dimension would take care of these problems but nooooooo...."

Re: Angel's office oatmanspatient June 13 2006, 20:42:44 UTC

Marty shook his head. "Parker sent me an e-mail on the whole dream thing. It only affected a few people in Fandom. I don't know what's going on with Callisto and you but you should know better than to piss her off."

Marty settled down to business. "How close are your dreams to what it said in the paper?"

Re: Angel's office notstakedyet June 13 2006, 20:46:05 UTC

"Really close," Angel said, quietly. "Like I could taste their blood."

Re: Angel's office oatmanspatient June 13 2006, 20:52:15 UTC

"Did you ever...?" Marty self-conciously rubbed the side of his cheek. "Y'know. Leave a mark like that? When you still did that kind of thing."

Re: Angel's office notstakedyet June 13 2006, 21:01:51 UTC

"For a while, yeah," Angel said. "It was a way to mock God. I grew out of it but... I thought I grew out of drinking human blood too. Maybe I've been wrong?"

He looked in the direction of the lobby. "Maybe I've been tempting myself too much."

Re: Angel's office oatmanspatient June 13 2006, 21:09:44 UTC

"What's the other option? Cutting yourself off from the rest of the world? It really doesn't help," Marty replied. "Trust me. I know this very well."

He gave Angel a serious look. "Do you really think you did this?"
