I know it's not because April's the month for a right of passage into not 'needed to be babysat' anymore. I don't think that day will ever come.

....


....Okay, that's depressing.

{Just going to stare at you. Not at all amused.}




{Still staring.}



Yeah, no shit, it's depressin'. And come April, I've got tickets t'go see the Sox play the Yankees. I'm lettin' the girls fend for themselves. Unless you're g'na come sit?

Faith, I've got enough to babysit right now. [She sighs, That right there was an understatement.]

You know when you come back the place will be a mess, right? Have you talked to Giles about this one? They're gonna go out and look for trouble. It's what they do.

Yeah, I know y'do, B. April's a ways away. Maybe by then your hectic schedule will have cleared? Jus' sayin'. If not, I know, I ain't goin'.

Just kinda nice t'hope for. Haven't talked t'Giles recently. Maybe he can come sit f'the squirts? If he survived you --- {Smug.}

[Fleeting] Maybe... [Then a sigh] No, you deserve a break, Faith. Maybe we can get Xander to pitch in a bit. Or, you're right. April comes along I might take a trip and help you out a little. I think to get Giles to admit to this we have to bribe him with tea. And crumpets, or whatever else they like across the ocean.

And since when do you go along with the American past time? I've never seen you wear a baseball cap.

..That's baseball you're talking about, right?

Just a day. S'all I'm askin' for. If not, it won't be the end of th'world or anythin'. Xander? If he comes around here, these girls will devour him like sharks t'a guppy. Giles and scones? He has t'like scones.

A girl can't share everythin'. Gotta leave a little mystery, Twinkie. I don't wear any kind of hat. But for a Sox game? better believe I will. Yeah, it's baseball, B. {Laughs.}

Early birthday present? I can handle a day, and you know what? For you, I could even stay the night. Besides, April is a spring month. Cleveland's got some interesting scenery in the springtime, right?

..Did you just call me Twinkie?

[his-firecracker.livejournal.com]

Super early birthday present. Yeah, y'say that now. Wait until you're here -- then you'll see why I need a break, B. Uh, sure. I guess it does? Hell if I know. Not really takin' strolls for scenery.


Yeah, I did. Why? Don't like it?

This is where you say "It's beautiful here in the spring, Buffy. You'd love it, and it's just another reason to come and babysit hellions with super strength."

I was just making sure I heard you right. It's better than alternatives. If you call me Twinkie, I'm calling you..something. I'm getting back to you on that one.
