        “Just saying, you’re barely making my top 10 of adultnappings, here.” He probably should stop quipping but he’s never been good at that. His mouth tends to do things without permission and he’s given up trying to keep it leashed. There’s the slightly funny way the evil scientists—seriously, evil scientistskeep insisting he’s an assassin, because excuse you what sure he fights for his life on a regular basis, but, like, decapitations are kind of public and most people wouldn’t go for that, not that he knows anything about that kind of thing, no siree.
        It goes downhill pretty quick. He makes yet another quip. They beat him up a little more. One minute the Vidic guy is explaining, with enthusiasm, they’re hardly demons, they’re working for the good of the world and a noble goal and all that shit, when suddenly he seems to put together that when Xander asked about demons, it wasn’t a metaphor, he was being entirely literal, and then there’s sudden friendliness and interest and they remind him uncomfortably of the Initiative.
        Hell, they didn’t know about demons and now they do and I am firmly in Camp That’s of the Major Bad, here.

HAVE I MENTIONED I HAVE GAY FRIENDS? (THEY MIGHT HAPPEN TO BE YOU.) MAYBE IT’S EVEN COOL YOU TWO BEING GAY TOGETHER? and you two are so oblivious you had no idea. maybe different languages. smoke signals? semaphore? increasingly convoluted metaphor—no, that’ll never work.

Rating: Teen

         Xander tries to ask Giles about it, but that gets shut down really fast. The librarian tries to take the attitude of ‘it’s already fixed so why worry about it’, which is far more a Xander attitude than a Giles one and probably means he’s hiding something. So instead Xander has to puzzle it out himself. For a culprit as methodical as Ethan, he has to wonder, why a costume shop? Maybe the transaction counted magically as a consent form.

         “Did you just tell your ladies that they’re not allowed to declare war on a game company?” Suna glances toward her husband, hyena’s grin only widening as she nods, patting Cordy on the back, trying to be reassuring.
         “Yeah, pretty sure we’d get tanks called on us if we marched up in war paint an’ the like. Not that I ain’t itchin’ to figure out who’d win in a fight ‘tween tanks ‘n me, but I ain’t gonna terrify a whole country to do it. ‘Sides, think there’s rules ‘bout ‘foreign investment’ or some such.”
         “But Ofukuro,” Inoue whines, trailing.

“Oh, that menu’s very expensive. Oh, and my feet hurt. I’m tired of walking.”
*Okuyasu uses Za Hando to bring a chair over
Rohan: “Amagi, you shouldn’t hint to Okuyasu. He doesn’t do subtle.”

“Jotaro-san, don’t touch your hat! I think Killer Queen touched it.” Jotaro-san stares longingly at his hat like he’s half-tempted to wear it anyway before he puts his hand back in his pocket. Wait, maybe...his hat is like Josuke’s hair. He hadn’t bothered to think about it like that. That’s super kewl.

Also, apparently there was something about the trunk of a car that was super menacing. I actually got to see the camera pan around and the menacing start to rise off.

Word Count: 180
Rating: Teen (extremely vague suggested makeout session)
Pairing: Faith/Buffy

         Jotaro-san stands frozen in the doorway, eyes wider than Buffy’s ever seen them. It looks like he’s entirely forgotten what he’d come to ask her, which is fair, and she’s pretty sure she’s never actually seen him as scared as he is right now, probably because he has absolutely no idea what he’s supposed to do in this situation. Buffy sympathizes. She wants the ground to swallow her up, right now. She doesn’t even care that she’d have to claw her way out like in her nightmares. Right now she doesn’t want to be visible at all.
         Finally, like time has started again, he speaks. “You are both getting a health exam. You are going to be careful if you’re not already.” And then the door slams, probably harder than he intended.
         “That went well,” Faith remarks, smug.
         Buffy shoves her off and promptly attempts to smother herself in the blankets, which is the closest she can get to disappearing into the ground. “Don’t talk to me.”
         “Can’t hear you, babe.” Her girlfriend is still far too happy given the absolute embarrassment of the moment.

         “Do you even own a guitar anymore, Tacchi?” Jun asks, and Hanamura-kun gasps and whips around hard enough he accidentally walks into one of the trees on the shrine ground. Seta-kun looks concerned, but other than the wince, the pain can’t overcome the brunet’s excitement.
         “You play guitar, Suou-san?” he gasps, and Tatsumi-kun whistles.
         “Not gonna lie, that’s pretty sweet, Suou-san.”
         Tatsuya, meanwhile, looks like he wants to melt into the ground at all the attention. He can be really shy, though it’s easy to overlook if you don’t know what you’re looking for. “…Yes,” he answers after a bit, flicking his lighter quickly.
         Jun merely raises an eyebrow, silently asking which question he’d been answering, and his dragon answers, “…Both.” He takes a deep breath and continues more normally. “Though it’s been a while. I think it’s at Katsuya and Maya-nee’s, and I haven’t touched it in years. The strings will probably snap the second I do.”
         “I really need to get back into it,” Hanamura-kun’s renewed enthusiasm is touching, and it’s nice seeing that while he no longer plays there’s one hobby where Tatsuya hasn’t lost all interest.

         “Moon cards?” Souji blinks, staring befuddled at the cards in his hand. There are quite a lot of them, and he’s never gotten those from a Shuffle Time before.
         “Think those are for me, thanks,” Suou-san states gruffly and plucks them from Souji’s hand.
         “What are they for?” Now that he’s not only allowed but encouraged to indulge his curiosity, he’s found it’s kind of addicting.
         “Fusing new Personas,” Kashihara-san answers when it becomes clear Suou-san is not going to respond. “It’s a much more complicated process for us. I was wondering how it was going to work without me having to tell demon horoscopes or Tatsuya doing his impressions.”

just fluff for once (if maybe a bit suggestive?)

         Suou-san glances at the costume and shakes his head.
         “I am leader,” Souji reminds him, and the snort that follows says exactly what the police officer thinks of his effort to assert his authority.
         “Tell you what. You get Jun to wear one, and I will too.”
         That seems…surprisingly easy. Kashihara-san is the type to go along with something like this.
         “I know. I’m negotiating for my own benefit. Also, you said that out loud, kid. Be careful.”
         Not for the first time, Souji finds himself wondering about the dynamic between the two older Persona-Users.

         “Uh. Is he all right?” Hanamura-kun asks, staring at Tatsuya, who has managed to fall asleep on one of the uncomfortable Junes chairs. Jun has yet to find an angle that doesn’t hurt, but he’s sitting elegantly anyway.
         Jun smiles reassuringly. “Tatsu-chan does this sometimes. Please pay him no mind. I’ll tell him what he missed later; please continue, Hanamura-kun.”

         “It might interest you to know that your doctor is dead,” Spock states, as if rattling off a fact, but it’s clear he’s fishing for information. That he’d bothered to look up Dr. McCoy, that he now wants to know, because Spock’s logic-brain still isn’t completely on board the ‘magic’ spaceship and wants answers that fit neatly into his little worldview—that’s a problem, but not one that it’s Jim’s place to solve.
         “All of my closest friends are,” Jim responds. It’s meant to be flippant, a redirect, but it comes out a little too serious, a little too hollow.

pre-Jotaro/Kakyoin

        Jotaro shivers a little, large hands curling around a mug too small in that grasp, and suddenly the past and the present slot right into place.  This is still Jotaro, whose actions speak louder than words.  This is still Jotaro, who would always get cold easily, an important reason he always kept on his cap and his wool jacket and his hands in his pockets when he could (besides the fact that the wool had a solid, reassuring weight).
        He notices Kakyoin staring and raises an eyebrow, taking another sip without taking his eyes off his friend.  Kakyoin smiles and shakes his head.  The revelation, after all, was not that important.  Not to share, anyway.

Word Count: 185
Rating: Teen
Pairing: Leon/Xander

        Leon glances around his apartment curiously when they get back, half certain the Slayers got in and installed something or left gifts or…something.  He’d been trying to be subtle, but apparently Xander noticed anyway because he chuckles.
        “You said you got a new game?” he asks, curious, and, well, seemingly they haven’t gotten to the destination yet.  Still, it’ll be nice that the system bought on a whim won’t continue to gather dust, so he boots it up.
        It’s only when Xander teases him as they get through another mission that somehow leads to them both wrestling on the floor that the truth hits Leon.
        “I thought all this time you were stalling for something special, but—I was wrong.”  He glances up, absolutely sure, to an adoring blue-eyed gaze.  “This has all been special,” he continues, the romantic in him touched beyond words.  He’d been expecting a big gesture, but a lot of little ones is awfully sweet, too.
        “Took you long enough.”  It’s gentle and not mocking, but Leon feels the urge to kiss the satisfaction off of the demon hunter’s face anyway.

Xander is planning something.
Word Count: 130
Rating: Teen
Pairing: Leon/Xander

        It’s obvious something is going on when it takes almost forty minutes to get to a fast food joint less than half that distance away.  Not that it hadn’t been obvious before that, but Redgrave has given up being subtle and pretending he’s not planning anything.  Xander continues to be mysteriously silent on the subject, starting a discussion about the movie when they finally park.  He just smiles and continues the earlier conversation when asked any questions, which is frustrating, but Leon will figure it out.  He starts a little when Leon reaches out to take his hand, but other than the shy sweet smile it doesn’t get Xander off track.  He only pauses for a moment then continues, gesturing harder with the other hand as he continues his story.
