"Not til lately, anyway," Bridge agrees with a sigh, shifting a bit closer.

[needsaparrot]

"Maybe it's the bed?" Xander suggests. "Or I dunno, the lights. Or there's something in the water..."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"We weren't *in* the bed yesterday," Bridge points out. "We could turn the lights on? I don't think it's the water but I could, I dunno, scan it or something? See if it's evil?"

[needsaparrot]

"You drank it with breakfast. I think you'd have noticed."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"So, not the water then."

[needsaparrot]

"Premature senility?" Xander offers. No, he's not serious, except for the irritated edge to his voice.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Do not even joke about that," Bridge says with a glare.

[needsaparrot]

"Hey, I could've meant you."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"And yet, the 'do not even joke about that' would still stand."

[needsaparrot]

"At least something would."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"At least your sarcasm isn't broken?" Bridge says, trying to find a bright side.

[needsaparrot]

"Do not even joke about that!"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"I was actually being serious!" Bridge insists. Because he is!

[needsaparrot]

"That's even worse!" Xander points out.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"That I don't want you to lose your sarcasm?" Bridge asks, clearly puzzled.

[needsaparrot]

"That you're bringing up the idea. Thats kind of where the 'even' in 'don't even joke about that' comes in," Xander explains.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Weird stuff here happens because of the bad guys," Bridge points out. "And I don't think Gruumm would think taking away your sarcasm would help him take over the wor- do you think Gruumm did *this*?"

[needsaparrot]

Xander gives him a look of horror. "What?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Maybe he did a spell or something? I mean, the same thing could be happening to Z, or Sky, or Syd... well maybe not the *same* thing, exactly, in Z or Syd's case," Bridge groans. "I so don't wanna ask any of them about this."

[needsaparrot]

"That's...evil!" Duh.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Well he *is* trying to take over the planet," Bridge points out. "Not exactly a nice guy."

[needsaparrot]

"Even the First Evil never tried to mess with my --" That was going to come out wrong no matter how he phrased it. "Our sex lives. Except for kidnapping Spike, but I think there was more of a plan there than just making Buffy really cranky."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, but that's Earth-evil," possibility of wacky extra-dimensionalness notwithstanding. "Gruumm is extraplanetary evil."

[needsaparrot]

"Flattering as it is to think horny aliens care about my dick," Xander says, annoyance eating away at his own caring about bad phrasing, "....actually no, not flattering. Just creepy."

"You don't think it's permanent, do you?" Bridge worries.
