video, the first } gordon ramsay eat your heart out

[allbloodyhail]

[Spike puts his booted feet up on the table in the lounge, puffing idly on a cigarette. He kinda didn't care about the recirculated air thing given that he didn't actually need to breathe. Instead he's just going to get right to it, leaning over the feed.]

Can't believe what the kitchen here calls 'hot wings.' More like spicy mystery meat, if you ask me. Which you didn't, but I'm telling you anyway. Because there's not one bloody thing else to do up here. Can only walk round in circles so many times before you start getting dizzy. Not that I've done that...

[Instead he's been riding the elevators up and down for the better part of four hours.]

Say, anyone know how to play cribbage? I'd settle for a rollicking game of Operation, at this rate.

[He's away from the screen just a moment, coming back up without his cigarette.]

I know. Charades. Yeah? [He stands up and sets the device far enough away to catch his expression. First word. A person. He flaps his arms like wings then rearranges his brow to hang over his eyes. See what he's doing here... No, probably not. He puts his hands together like prayer and draws a halo over his head with smoke from his cigarette (that he quickly puts down again, off screen).

There's a pause, and then Spike rolls his eyes. He got bored of his own boredom-curing movement.] You know the guy. He's not really on security, is he?

[The video ends with a slightly melodic laugh and a hoo sound. As in, hoo boy, that's a knee-slapper.

You're welcome, Ataraxion.]

He hugged you?

Bloody hell.

[allbloodyhail]

Because I spent most of it murdering people, that's why.

[jilt]

I've met men with stranger hobbies.

[allbloodyhail]

[ he snorts ] Yeah? Like what?

[stacked]

Dude's a little too in touch with his feelings sometimes, it's all I'm saying.

[jilt]

Bee-keeping.

[ heh it's a joke. ]

[allbloodyhail]

Bee-keeping? Guess that ranks up there. Though, honey isn't such a bad thing.

[allbloodyhail]

You can say that again.

[stacked]

Dude's-- nah, that one's too easy. Even for me.

[jilt]

He wasn't much for honey. It was a terrible waste, I'm afraid.

spike has no idea what they're talking about but he likes it ok

[allbloodyhail]

Who doesn't like honey?

[allbloodyhail]

[ snort ] No kidding. But it bears repeating, yeah? He's a big softy underneath all that hair goop.

[stacked]

Yeah, as a sponsor he doesn't suck.

[ she mocks because she loves etc ]

[allbloodyhail]

A sponsor, eh? [ he thought about that, a little too deeply, losing himself in memory for a full moment longer than he would have preferred. angel had been his sponsor once, though not at all in the way in which faith had meant the word. ] He's good for something then. Bully for him.

they're talking about honey!!

[jilt]

Silly, silly men with seemingly important things to occupy their time.

screams!!!!!

[allbloodyhail]

[jilt]

Not all. Some might be exempt.

[ maybe you spike but only because you said that ]

[stacked]

Makes a mean egg, too.

[allbloodyhail]

Yeah? Maybe not.

[ he doesn't know about that irene. he does some pretty silly things!!! ]

[allbloodyhail]

Really? Huh. I'll have to tap into that sometime.

[stacked]

Good luck getting eggs up here, but that miracle comes through go for it.

[allbloodyhail]

Some girl told me we have chickens. Chickens lay eggs, don't they?

[stacked]

Yeah, but it's not like my girl Jaye's just giving them out.

[ crazy chicken lady would be the roommate. ]

[allbloodyhail]

Your girl... She's the one you're staying with, then?

[stacked]

She went all weird and asked me, wasn't gonna say no by then.

[ asking for companionship is weird, life lessons with faith. ]
