MCA #0, Thursday morning

[needsaparrot]

Xander was slouched on the sofa studying the layout of the building, wondering if he could get away with adding another wing or something to deal with the slow but steady stream of new townies that seemed to be trickling in, considering that Giles had filled the last available apartment and with the landing pad on the roof it wasn't like he could build up.

He wasn't using it as an excuse to have something to stare at besides the wall while he obssessed about various conversations, some of them more unsettling (and less one-sided) than others. At all.

Xander twitched a skeptical eyebrow. "It always means something. They just never bother to tell you what."

Mel frowned as she poked at her waffle with her fork. "What they did tell me was pretty cryptic. Basically that I'm not only here to regain my connection but also to fix some timeline that went wrong."

Xander crossed one leg over the other and rolled his...eye. "Well, that narrows it down. There's... let's see, just here there's Buffy, Willow, Dawn, me, Giles and... probably Lorne since there's another one where I come from, all from different timelines that have Slayers. At least one guy who graduated with me's from another."

"Huh. Well. Looks like I have my work cut out for me then," Mel said with a sigh. "Gotta say though... These waffle things rock."

"You can also throw them as a weapon. So I've heard. I don't think they'd do a lot of damage, but if you're, say, fighting a vampire who doesn't like getting his hair sticky..."

"You run into a lot of vampires who have that issue?" Mel asked with a smirk.

"I used to live with one. Check the pants for evil before you finish him off, though; that's the guy we invented the leather pants rule for."

Mel gives him a look of "buh".

"Pants are evil?"

[needsaparrot]

"Well, wearing leather ones is a possible sign of it in vampires that usually have a soul." Xander rubbed the back of his neck. "Although as lines go, 'I'm checking your pants for evil' might want to be one you use sparingly."

"Depends on who's in the pants," Mel said with big grin and a raised eyebrow.

[needsaparrot]

"That's the point of checking."

"There are days I love this job."
