[There's so no such thing as too much showing off. Buffy's so impossibly cool.

Clementine tries to climb up onto the stool unassisted, but there's some scrambling involved with the action. If Jack wants to be a buddy and give her a boost, it won't be refused.]
originaljackass: (Shit)

[Up she goes with an assist to the warm. No big, he just feeds you at home, that's all.]

And this is why I waited to introduce you. [Just undermine him, Buffy! Go ahead!]
herotypical: [ happy ; snarky ; bar ] (✝ but twice as fast)

[personal profile] herotypical 2013-03-31 10:58 am (UTC)(link)
Saying you waited is just another way of saying it was on your mind. Thought about. Considered.

[ and that notion unsettles her, as much as she tries to play it off as a joke. it isn't as though she thinks horner is scheming something in her direction; rather, she finds the memories disquieting all on their own. him. her. the bar. a child. part of her wants to believe his reluctance comes from the same place as her own.

ah, well. no turning back now. buffy dumps a generous amount of field berries into the bar's blender. ]
Be honest, Clem. Has he so much as mentioned me before today? I bet not.

[ she hopes not. ]
smallsurvivor: (05; snoop)

[personal profile] smallsurvivor 2013-03-31 02:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Um. Well! He was busy. [Clementine's starting to get the hint that this is one of those conversations grownups have when they're trying to talk about something else. Or something. Those red berries look good though!]

Is it true there's no such thing as running out of food here?
originaljackass: (Gambling)

[personal profile] originaljackass 2013-03-31 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[He would've got to it, jeez. He has a lot of exes to mention, Buffy isn't necessarily in the top ten of them.]</small. Yeah, basically. By all means, pig out.

[ she rolls her eyes at jack's take on the situation, but then realizes...jack hadn't been here for the kin'corans. ]


I'll be honest -- [ she supplements the berries with some orange juice. ] It is true that supplies've now and then gone to the sparse side. But we had warning. Sorta. I mean, in as much as a sudden influx of refugees could ever warn someone of...

[ kin'cora. vaskoth. zombies. buffy sighs. ] Even then, it was about three times as abundant as it probably is most worlds.
smallsurvivor: (14; speak softly)

[personal profile] smallsurvivor 2013-03-31 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
So nobody has to eat anything really gross. right? [NO PEOPLE? Clem's highly conscious of the time she was served a dying buddy for dinner.]
originaljackass: originaljackass @ LJ (Cool and collected)

[personal profile] originaljackass 2013-04-01 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Refugees, huh? He raises an eyebrow, logs that away, and then decides he doesn't care.]

I never do and look at me, fit as can be.
herotypical: [ snark ; angry ; conversation ] (✝ she only ever walks to count her steps)

[personal profile] herotypical 2013-04-01 10:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Depends. Do you find squirrel gross? I hear there's a girl around here who cooks squirrels.
smallsurvivor: (03; bemused)

[personal profile] smallsurvivor 2013-04-01 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Why would you cook squirrels? there's almost no meat in them.
originaljackass: originaljackass @ LJ (Not sure if serious)

[personal profile] originaljackass 2013-04-01 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[Jack would also like to know why the hell we're talking about roasted squirrel.]
herotypical: [ angry ; wtf ; neutral ] (✝ before the next nine right)

[personal profile] herotypical 2013-04-02 11:51 am (UTC)(link)
[ it's called casual conversation, horner. learn to have it. or...perhaps just have it with someone who isn't buffy summers. ]

Beats me. I suspect I wouldn't be a fan of squirrel -- never mind how much meat they have -- [ and how the little girl knows that. ]

Anyway. Maybe it's not even true. I heard it from a guy who knows a guy who lives with a girl. In gossip terms, that's practically untraceable.
smallsurvivor: (15; because of course)

[personal profile] smallsurvivor 2013-04-02 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[Because sometimes roasted squirrel comes up in conversations that happen between a half-dozen starving adults. It's so not even weird.]

It's not good to gossip. That's how a lot of lies get spread.
originaljackass: originaljackass @ LJ (I think I parked back there)

[personal profile] originaljackass 2013-04-03 03:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, Buffy. You heard the kid. Shame on you.
herotypical: [ snarky ; pout ] (✝ and i could work weekends)

[personal profile] herotypical 2013-04-03 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I am what I am. I can't be changed.

[ and instead of saying anything else, the immediate area was filled with the sound of a blender rather violently blending. ]
smallsurvivor: (Default)

[personal profile] smallsurvivor 2013-04-04 11:27 am (UTC)(link)
[It's a startling noise that Clem wasn't entirely prepared for. She yelps and jumps, burying her face against Jack's middle. Please don't be getting your hand gnarled off now, Buffy. Please don't be getting your hand gnarled off.]
originaljackass: originaljackass @ LJ (Explaining)

[personal profile] originaljackass 2013-04-04 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oof. Well, Jack hadn't been quite prepared for that. Of all the things to make her react, a blender wasn't one of them. Momentarily at a loss for what to do, he pats her on the back.]

Easy, Clem. It's just a blender.
herotypical: [ happy ; bar ; restaurant ] (✝ so break me to small parts)

[personal profile] herotypical 2013-04-05 06:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[ with a reaction like that, buffy can't help but scrabble her fingers over the blender's face in the hopes of shutting it down. she knows its buttons like she knows almost everything else in this bar, but the overwhelming desire to stop spooking the girl drives logic well outside of her brain. ]

S-sorry! [ she stammers, finally opting to just unplug the damn thing. ] I should have yelled fore. Or maybe timber. Or whatever the blender equivalent is.
smallsurvivor: (09; jumpscare)

[personal profile] smallsurvivor 2013-04-06 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[Of course it's just a blender! But it's a blender with sharp blades and it sounds just like the kind of accident that would leave terrible horrible things all over!!]



Is there a lot of blood?
originaljackass: (Wait what?)

[personal profile] originaljackass 2013-04-08 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
Blood? Who said anything about blood?
herotypical: [ action ; neutral ; happy; YUM TASTY ] (✝ sexy pineapple flavour)

[personal profile] herotypical 2013-04-08 10:28 am (UTC)(link)
No blood. We're bloodless. Just -- [ she waggles her fingers ] -- strawberry juice. [ and then promptly sticks the stained finger in her mouth, tasting the tart red not-blood. there's so little of it that she suspects it wasn't the juice that spooked the girl, but the sound. an important fact to file away. ]

It takes more than a blender to...[ make me bleed ] hurt me, I promise. Everyone's a-okay. And very close to smoothie goodness. [ she glances at jack. ] Why don't you two go pick one of the much quieter booths and I'll be along with the drinks soon. Lickety split.
smallsurvivor: (11; she observes)

[personal profile] smallsurvivor 2013-04-11 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh. Is there no--? Oh.

Clementine slowly peels herself away from Jack, eyes downcast.]


Sorry. It sounded like an accident.

[Jack pats Clem on the head. Despite himself, he's fond of her, even if she's weird.]

Nah, see, that's just how it always is with Buffy. She makes everything seem like an accident.

Oh, sure. Because that's going to inspire the gal with every confidence in my ability to -- well -- do anything. Thanks a lot, Horner.
smallsurvivor: (15; because of course)

[personal profile] smallsurvivor 2013-04-15 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
[Clementine doesn't think of herself as weird! It's this place that's weird. It's way too normal and things haven't earned the right to be so normal yet.]

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you upset with each other. [Because what is all this play fighting even. Mom and Dad never undercut one another like this.]
