[Raven's been at that wine in the fountain for a good hour or so now. When life gives you lemons take them, they're free lemons right? He's pretty out of it - hugging anyone who happens to pass by, even the guys. Yeah there's birds being lovey-dubey and some flowers he keeps treading on, not to mention the fountain itself. But he's occupied with getting wasted, because you know, he has priorities. Fortunately for you guys he was affected and taken about 3 days ago.]

If they still got a soul, then shouldn't it be possible ta kick the vampire demon outta 'em?

[herotypical]

Nope. The soul only comes back under particular circumstances. [She shrugs.] There have only ever been two vampires with souls.

[crisisrain]

Did they both end up here? Or just the one?

[herotypical]

They were both here when I arrived...but they've both gone back home since.

[crisisrain]

Did ya ever do it with both of 'em at the same time?

[herotypical]

W-wait, what?

[She looks offended but...to be honest? Sometimes...in her brain. Oh god thank goodness this is canon or I'd be going to a special hell]

[crisisrain]

I've been drinkin' wine fer about 2 hours now, what did ya seriously think I was gonna ask?

[herotypical]

Well, no. I didn't. [Not at the same time, at least.]

[crisisrain]

OK, how about this one then. What'cha gonna do if one of these guys gets dragged back 'ere?

[herotypical]

[What are you, a prophet?]

Depends who it'd be.

[crisisrain]

[Wait... /goes to check reserves.]

Oh? Picky lady has a favourite then~

[herotypical]

Less picky, more complicated.

[There's a certain peroxide blond in her future, perhaps.]

[crisisrain]

[Oh good god it's Spike! Fff <3]

Ah love~ If it was anythin' other than complicated it wouldn't be half as fun would it?

[herotypical]

There isn't a lot of fun in this kind of complicated. [A look.] But if either of them came, I'd probably keep my head down for while. I'm not keen on confrontations with the exes.

[By which she confirms Raven's early accusation of them even being her exes.]

[crisisrain]

Ya've got a real habit of attractin' the bad types haven't ya? [Though he says that in all seriousness, he's got the idea that it comes from your line of work.]

They'd find ya eventually, layin' low in a small place like this is difficult enough.

[herotypical]

Hey, Angel? Totally didn't seem like a baddie. A little mysterious and cryptic, sure. Bad? Nope. He started out all chivalrous and noble.

[crisisrain]

A vampire called Angel...

[herotypical]

Yeah. Probably not a good idea to ask what the other one's name is.

[crisisrain]

Devil?

[herotypical]

Spike.

[crisisrain]

Well that's not as ironic as Angel. But still kinda funny.

[herotypical]

Anyway. They're both in the past. Big time. I am one very single woman.

[Unlike the last time she spoke to him about matters of the heart.]

[crisisrain]

Hold on a minute, ya mentioned a "first date" and showed me that injury. That means yer not exactly single right now are ya?

[herotypical]

Yeah. First date [She adds in a few airquotes, this time.] I'm not really his type. Not yet, at least. I'll get there, though. Then he'll be sorry.

[Said with a rather weird amount of affection.]

[crisisrain]

Is that yer way of sayin' that ya'll make him love you by beatin' him up? [He's ever so slightly amused, because of knowing this is an experiment he knows she'll be alright eventually.]
