I am going to talk to him about it, but right now I'm talking to you.

Just tell me what happened, Angel.

[peskycurse]

He was talking to me about how my work hasn't been at its best lately, I thought he was being patronizing and the whole thing just kind of spiralled and once we reached the "just throwing insults" stage of things he brought up how things ended between you and me and I snapped and threw a punch.

[freezesme]

He shouldn't have done that. He gets protective.

Sorry. Are you hurt?

[peskycurse]

I don't have much room to talk there.

I'm fine.

[freezesme]

I don't need protecting. I take care of myself.

But good. Glad you are fine.

[peskycurse]

I know.

Your boyfriend came out on top, if that helps any.

1/2

[freezesme]

I don't need to know who tops.

[freezesme]

...that came out wrong.

[peskycurse]

It made me laugh but my ribs kind of hurt when I do that so try to contain yourself.

[freezesme]

I'll try. Not a road I want to go down.

Try to avoid Riley, if you can. You are a touchy subject.

[peskycurse]

I'm usually pretty good at avoiding. Today was just bad luck.

[freezesme]

I know, you are great at avoiding.

[peskycurse]

I'm not sure if that's sarcasm implying that I'm actually not, or you're mad at me for being good at it, or just agreeing with me.

[freezesme]

Somehow kind of all of the above.

Drusilla seems to have taken things well.

[peskycurse]

Well that's not confusing at all.

As far as I can tell, yes.

[freezesme]

I'm a mystery. It's my appeal.

So she is fine with Spike kissing whoever. Or maybe just with Spike kissing YOU.

[peskycurse]

Hey, that's my line.

She did say she's glad we're getting along.

We're not. For the record.

[freezesme]

It's going to wear off for you one day.

She may just be gunning for a threesome.

[peskycurse]

My appeal? That mean I still have some?

Wait. Don't answer that. And Dru can gun all she likes, she's not getting one. At least not one involving me.

[freezesme]

You are annoying thaf way.

Is he a good kisser?

[peskycurse]

I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that.

Do you really want to know?

[freezesme]

I don't know. I mean, I guess I want it to have been bad, but given what happened because of it, it might as well have been worth it.

[peskycurse]

No kiss could be worth it.

[freezesme]

I don't think you were thinking that while doing it.

[peskycurse]

No, I wasn't.

He brings out the worst in me. The man I was. I got goaded into a power game and in the moment it felt good.
