[~~/Flips table at her hiatus~~ This entry takes place in the late morning. These will all have to take place at different times in the day because crossing over would get insanely awkward.]

You heard what the little girl said, let's go and 'say sorry' by the south lake at 8pm. Bring your sword, or a picnic. I'd personally prefer a picnic but somehow I doubt that.

Maybe I'm just bein' generous fer a change.

No. [She picks up her fork once again, waggling it in his direction.] I don't believe that. I've never gotten the bitter and selfish vibe off of you.

I wouldn't say that. I cause a lot of trouble fer people with my selfish, childish nature.

[One more bite. Then, with a burst of courage, Buffy snaps into direct eye contact.]

How'd it happen, Raven? [Her cautious tone can really only mean one thing. How did you die?]

Edited 2010-06-03 18:57 (UTC)

Ack! [That took him by a big surprise.] How'd what happen!?

[It's not pure curiousity. There are subtle hints of concern and camaraderie, as well.]

My first time? I was drowned by an uberugly vamp calling himself the Master. I wasn't gone for long, thanks to the modern magic of CPR. [This death is the easiest for her to talk about.] But the whole thing was prophesied, so the freak-factor was way high.

Ahh yer talkin' about death aren't you? And I doubt there's any such thing as prophecies in Luceti.

[She was trying to avoid the 'd' word. Out of courtesy. It may be the only thing she avoid out of courtesy.]

No, this was back home. Six years ago--uhm, seven if you count the one I've been stuck here for.

You're askin' how I died then aren't you? How I died here or... are ya implyin' something else?

[Her eyes narrow.]

Murder? [There had been so much of it lately.]

Ooooh ya think I was murdered?

I'm wondering if you were.

It's pretty un-nerving when ya have to re-assure someone ya weren't murdered ya know.

And it's also pretty unnerving to have to worry about whether a friend's been murdered, or not. [She sighs; that was a little crass.

Better back pedal:] There's just been so much of it lately, y'know? Way too much on-purpose death. A girl can't help but wonder.

What a terrible world we live in if murder is the most common way ta die.

But no. I wasn't murdered, like Flynn said over the journals it was down ta natural causes!

[The sad truth is that Buffy has no reason to trust this Flynn guy. But she is glad to hear it from Raven's mouth.]

Look around. We're the captives of big time bad scientists. I think this definitely qualifies as a terrible world.

Ya don't need to remind me of that. I like to think of it like a pretty little village somewhere full of interestin' people. Tryin' ta be optimistic about it!

Sorry. Really, I'm sorry. [She enjoys another bite, shaking her head.]

You're not the first to call me out on being a downer.

Yer not a downer at all hun! Ya just like to point out the sad truth about things.

Besides, how can I be a crank with all this deliciousness? [Another bite, mm!]

So much more of a cheer-up than Captain Sparrow's game of blindfold darts. [Which was sadly probably just an excuse to ogle her while she wasn't looking. She doesn't know this. Yet.]

[That caught him off guard, for a moment then he thought he heard you say Captain "somethingelse".] Sparrow is a terrible birds name. He should've chosen somethin' more classy!

And I did tell ya I was a master at makin' crepes! If they can make a pretty lady smile it's all worth it in the end.

[She blinks.] It's a last name. First name, Jack. Captain Jack Sparrow. But I already know another Captain Jack. It's mostly very confusing and I'm about this close to handing out nicknames.

That's a great idea! Ya should give 'em nicknames! Do they do anythin' interestin' ya could pick up on?

Well--[hmm]--Sparrow's a pirate. He also seems to be perma-drunk and had a really weird affection for any foodstuffs I throw together. Which is kinda really bad since, me? Not a good chef. No where near your level, that's for sure.

Harkness is more of a mystery. [She shrugs.] Very charming. Time-travelling, too. Plus he's got an associate who's also a Captain. [Her face darkens.] Captain John Hart. Avoid him--he's a big time jerk.

[He pauses for a moment... a time-traveller and a permanently drunk pirate. Buffy, your social groups are starting to worry him.]

Buffy darlin', how many Captains do ya know?!
