spnae AKA RavenLove12

Chapter 7

At the SGC the next day Sam found herself too busy to focus too much on a certain General. In fact she had barely seen him. When she had seen him he was his normal snarky, self.

By Friday Sam had finished up most of her smaller on going projects. She then had been able to devote more of her time studying up on the Daedalus. “Hey Sam, whatcha doing?” Daniel asked as he and Teal’c walked into her lab.

“Hey guys, I was just going over the specifics of the new ship being built.” She continued telling them what she could about the Daedalus, leaving out the part about her transferring. She wasn’t sure if she was ready to tell them just yet, even though she was beyond excited for the experience. She had just finished when the phone rang, it was for Daniel. Sam watched him as he spoke, she could tell he was shaken. “What is it?” She asked.

“Catherine Langford died last night.”

Sam hadn’t known Catherine as well as Daniel had, but they had worked together years ago. Then there was the mission they went on to find her old fiancé. It saddened her to hear of her death.

“I’m so sorry Daniel, I know how close you two were.”

“Yeah, humm. If you could excuse me, I ah, I need to go talk to Jack.”

“Are you going to be alright?”

“Yeah, fine,” Daniel said as he left to find Jack.

Jack was in his office when Daniel knocked on the door, “Jack, do you have a minute?”

“Ehh” he looked at Daniel’s face and could tell it was important “Sure, what’s up?” He said closing the file he had been reading.

“It’s Catherine.”

“She alright?”

Daniel collapsed onto the little couch in Jack’s office “She’s dead Jack, last night.”

“Daniel…”

“I know, she wasn’t a blood relative, but Jack…”

“She was practically family. It’s fine Daniel. When’s the funeral?”

“Monday morning.”

“You have until Wednesday.”

“Thanks Jack,” Daniel sat looking at his hands, “She was the first person I called when I got back; like I almost always do after missions. I just talked to her last week. I never thought it would be the last time I talked to her, you know?”

“Daniel. I know you probably don’t want to hear this but, the woman lead an amazing life. None of what we do here would have been possible without her. Without her, there would be no Stargate program, and without a Stargate program there would be no… well you know.”

“No you.”

“Yeah, that. Look I just mean that Catherine touched a lot of lives even if she didn’t know it. I’m not going to pretend that I knew the woman well but I do owe her.”

“I know what you’re trying to do. Thank you Jack.”

“Think nothing of it. Hey, why don’t you come over tonight, we’ll invite Sam and Teal’c and have a little memorial thing for her.”

“I appreciate that Jack. What time?”

“Oh say, 7:00?”

“Deal, I’ll go tell Sam and Teal’c. Thanks again Jack.”

********

That night the four of them sat around Jack’s living room with boxes of takeout toasting to Catherine’s memory with Jack’s beer. Sam was upset about Catherine’s passing as well but felt odd about going to the funeral. She was glad Jack had arranged this little low key “memorial dinner”. They all needed it. After some time the focus switched to Jacob. Teal’c and Daniel were both sorry they hadn’t been around. However she assured them both that given their roles in recent events it would have hardly been expected for either one of them. Especially Daniel.

“At least you have the opportunity to be able to go to Catherine’s funeral. That’s what counts.” Sam said.

“You should all come. You all met her, and her husband. Why don’t we all go?” Daniel said. He was slurring his words slightly. Jack reached a long arm over and took his beer away from him. “Oh, I think that’s enough for you, Buddy.”

“You said yourself, you owed her, Jack.”

“That I did, but it doesn’t mean that I’m at liberty to drop everything and just go.”

“What about you two?” Daniel asked, looking to Teal’c and Sam for support. “I am sorry Daniel Jackson, I can not. I’m afraid I have a prior engagement I must see to.”

“Sam? Come on Sam.”

“Sam’s got a thing this weekend. Don’tcha Carter?” Jack supplied absently.

“General’s right. I have plans I can’t cancel, Sorry Daniel. I’m planning on sending flowers though and I’ve been thinking about making a donation to a foundation that supports scientific studies for girls.”

“Catherine would have loved that, Sam! Count me in!”

Jack and Teal’c also offered a modest sum to go towards the donation, which gave her the idea to put the word out around the SGC, unofficially of course, to see if anyone else would be interested. She would ask around Monday morning.

It was nearly midnight when Teal’c decided it was time to go. Teal’c and Daniel had driven together which worked out well because Daniel was in no condition to drive. Sam hung back on the pretense of helping Jack clean up. “You go on, make sure he gets settled in. I’ll probably just finish up here and head out.”

“Very well Colonel Carter. I shall see you on Monday then.”

“Night Teal’c! Daniel!”

“Night, Sam! Tell Jack thanks for everything.”

“You already thanked me Daniel. Six times.” Jack was both amused and annoyed “Good night you two!” Jack said as he closed the door behind them. Jack waited to make sure they left before he went back into the living room where Sam had already managed to get most of the mess cleaned up. “You don’t have to do all that.”

Sam shrugged one shoulder, “You can get the empties.”

“On it!”

Minutes later Jack asked “So, whatcha doing Sam?”

She held up a plastic shopping bag filled with trash and raised an eyebrow in answer.

“I ment where are you staying? Were you planning on staying here until after the hockey game or did you need to go home?”

“I’ve got an overnight bag in my trunk. I was kinda thinking maybe we could stay at my place after the game tomorrow. Maybe watch a movie.”

Jack smirked, “Sure, we can do that.”

In the end Jack would have been fine with Sam going to the funeral if she wanted. He’d find someone else to go to the hockey game with him, maybe Siler. But Sam was dead-set against changing their plans for the hockey game and they both wanted to spend as much time together as possible.

Ten minutes into the game and Sam had already decided it was a sport she might actually enjoy once she learned more about it. Fortunately, Jack was a good teacher. By the end of the game Sam felt like she had a fairly good handle on the game and most of the terminology. It was exceptionally thrilling when Jack’s team won.

Jack’s face split into a wide smile as the buzzer sounded with the winning goal. It was all he could do to stop himself from pulling Sam into a celebratory kiss. He was having trouble with the idea of showing too much affection in public aside from holding hands or a hug. It took Sam a moment to realize that it probably had more to do with him being such a private person more than anything else.

She had always respected Jack, and had loved him as she knew him for years. Now, the more time they spent together, the more they got to know each other on a personal level, the more she fell in love. There was so much more to the man than he let on at work and yet he was still a simple man. Ironically “Down-to-Earth”, for a former fighter pilot, Black-Ops, leader of SG-1, and the current commander of the SGC. She imagined that people who only knew him outside of the Air Force, might not ever really realize he was even in the Air Force if he didn’t mention it. But then the same could probably be said about her as well.

They decided to pick up Chinese food on the way back to Sam’s. Since the zoo and the hockey game were both Jack’s idea the rest of the night was Sam’s to dictate. Chinese food, ice cream and an old movie.

Jack sat down on the couch busying himself with the takeout containers as Sam went to get plates. “What do you want to drink?” She yelled from the kitchen.

“Ya have a beer?”

“Sure do,” Sam walked in moments later with plates and beer.

“So what movie are we watching?” He asked as he filled a plate with rice and orange chicken.

“The Court Jester” She eyed him for a moment testing his reaction.

She wasn’t really sure what movies he liked, except that he didn’t really care for Sifi. Jack didn’t even look up from what he was doing but nodded, “Classic, gotta love Danny Kaye,” he said before taking a big bite of food.

Sam gave a satisfied little smile as she prepared the movie and hit play. “So out of curiosity, what kind of movies do you like anyway?”

Jack shrugged “Don’t really watch them much. I read more than anything.”

“Pick a genre.”

“Ehh,” he sighed, “I guess I like a good mystery, some action, but it has to have some comedy, whatever it is. I’m not really a fan of anything too serious. Or sifi, it’s too much like work. I like to laugh. A classic like this is good but I wouldn’t want to watch musicals all the time. Variety is a good thing.” Jack took a big bite of chicken while the beginning credits started. “So did I pass the test?”

“Test?” He eyed her sideways, chewing his food. “Yeah alright. So maybe it was a little one.”

“And?” He grinned.

“It’s a reasonable answer, I can live with,” she smirked as she sat down next to him taking the plate he offered. As much as Sam enjoyed old movies she also liked a variety.

By the end of the movie Sam was laying with her head in Jack’s lap half asleep. Maybe she shouldn’t have picked a movie she’d seen twenty times or maybe it was just because of the late hour, either way she was exhausted. “That’s it Sammie, time for bed,” he sing-songed , patting her on the hip.

Sam sat up stretching “What time is it anyway?”

“Ahh, I’d say bedtime, humm almost 2:00”

“No wonder I’m tired.”

Jack had already started cleaning up their plates and the leftovers, “Not getting soft on me are ya, Carter?”

“No, Sir,” she yawned.

Jack chuckled, “I got this, Hun, you go get ready for bed.”

“You sure? I don’t mind cleaning up”

“Nah, you go, I’ll be along in a minute.”

Sam made her way back to her room, changed into a pair of blue and white sleep shorts and a t-shirt. Jack came in as she was brushing her teeth. “Ok… so I know it’s been a little while since I saw your room but wasn’t it different?”

“Humhum” she mumbled through a mouthful of toothpaste.

“When did you have time to do it?”

“It didn’t take that long. It’s just new bedding, a couple of lamps and a few odds and ends. I just went shopping one day after work. I wanted to paint but haven’t got to it.”

“Sam this is really nice in here,” he let out a little whistle.

“I thought it was time for a change,” Sam stifled another yawn. “I’m pretty pleased with how it turned out. It was kinda fun.”

“Sprinklers huh?”

“What? Oh that, no. I think this has less to do with dad and more to do with just doing something for myself. Ok so maybe it had something to do with you and Pete, but mostly it was just for me.”

Jack gave her a skeptical look then shrugged one shoulder, “Well whatever the reason, I like it, it's very you. I’m digging the Air Force color scheme.”

Sam looked around at the dark blue quilt with the soft gray and white floral print and the little touches of blue she had added in various places. Okay… so maybe he had a point. However lots of people used blue, gray and white to decorate with. Oh well, she still loved the look.

Sam watched as Jack pulled his shirt off and stripped out of his jeans. “Where should I put these?” He asked.

“Over there is fine” she said, indicating a small blue decorative basket on the floor near her dresser. Jack finished getting ready for bed himself and followed Sam back into the bedroom. “I did have other plans for tonight but I’m just too tired.”

Jack let out a bark of laughter “Trust me, sleep is the only thing on my mind.”

“Maybe in the morning” she teased as she made herself comfortable. Jack curled in behind her holding her close “Could happen”.

A moment past “I thought you were too tired” Sam grumbled.

“I am. Just ignore it, that thing is always insubordinate.”

“If you say so” she murmured and promptly fell asleep grinning.

**********

About a week later, Jack Got in before anyone else per usual to find there was an unscheduled delivery truck waiting for approval to unload. Much to his surprise it was addressed to Daniel. After checking the shipment and verifying the address Jack allowed a group of his men to unload the truck. The last few crates had just been delivered when Daniel came in. Jack was waiting for him.

“Jack?”

“Daniel.”

“What’s goin on?”

“You been shopping online lately?”

“Whatcha talkin about?”

It was the delivery from Catherine’s estate and it was much larger than Daniel could have expected. His office was filled from top to bottom, it would take him forever to get through it all. Daniel was still trying to process what he was going to do with all of it when Jack excused himself, making a joke about stamp collecting.

Daniel spent the better part of the week going through the items from Catherine’s estate before he came across a particularly interesting crate. The most interesting thing about this case was that it contained a modern looking video camera as well as what was unmistakably a ZPM and a tablet Daniel was certain had been written just for him in a sort of code HE had developed himself.

He ran into the briefing room where Jack was clearly bored out of his skull by a group of geologists showing him rock samples. Daniel of course barely noticed them, pausing just long enough to apologize for the interruption before Jack latched onto his arm desperate to get out of there, grateful it was for a good reason.

Within a matter of minutes Danielle had the rest of SG-1 assembled in his little office and Sam was already getting the video hooked up to her laptop so they could watch it. It was clear from the video that they had in fact used the time machine in the Ancient craft, it was also clear that whatever they had done had been successful because the ZPM accompanied the rest of the shipment. The only detail Jack noticed out of place as he watched himself on the tape was when he said there was no fish in his pond. Which there most certainly were fish in his pond.

Really was there any reason to mention that one little detail? Risk his team all to get rid of the fish swimming in his pond? How could that be a bad thing? It meant that his pond was healthy enough to support life and heck, they had a ZPM. Why should he risk his neck just because his pond apparently didn’t have fish in the alternate timeline? Nope, no way he was gonna say a word.

Especially not when he had already made arrangements with Sam to leave on their vacation the next morning. Daniel and Teal’c would be joining them the following week. They were under the impression that Sam was going to surprise her brother with a visit and then meet up with them at the cabin later. It was a bold face lie of course however they had planned on telling the guys about their relationship and their transfers. The transfers that had already been processed. Sam’s at least would take effect before they returned from their trip. She was due to report only a few days after returning home. This trip would be the last trip they would go on together. Possibly ever, and Sam wanted to make sure it was a good one.

“Ok, I’ll get this up to the lab for analysis…” Sam said, moving to take the crate holding the ZPM. Jack quickly stepped in, practically ripping it from her. “No! I’ll take it. There’s a whole room of geeks just dying to get their hands on this. You got packing to do.” He said, looking her up and down. He couldn’t wait to get her up to his cabin, finally.

She was of course looking forward to having Jack to herself for a week. However, the idea of fishing in a pond devoid of fish did not seem all that appealing to her. She gave him an exasperated look. He was so excited about this trip, there was no way she would back out now.

***********

The drive up to Jack’s cabin was beautiful. Sam could already feel herself starting to relax. Even she had to admit that she really did need some time off to recharge. When they arrived she was surprised at how nice his cabin was. She didn’t really know what she had expected.

The more she thought about it the more she supposed she had been expecting more of a shack than the nice sized cabin she saw. In fact it could easily be a year-round home. “You mentioned before that the cabin had been in your family for years. Does somebody live here full-time?”

“Not for a long time. My grandparents lived here for years. I’ve been thinking I’d like to retire here. Apparently that won’t be happening anytime soon though. Here, let me take that.” He said taking the duffel bag she had slung over one shoulder. “Our room is in the back. Through the kitchen here. Teal’c and Daniel each get one of the small bedrooms. There’s just the one bathroom.”

“We’ve shared much worse accommodations, Jack. Is everything ok?”

“I’m just having second thoughts about telling the guys about us.”

Sam raised her eyebrows “Any particular reason?”

Jack shrugged a shoulder but didn’t answer. “Jack? I’m pretty sure they are going to figure it out when they see we’re sharing a room.”

“Yeah I know, I know,” he groused.

“Hey, this was all your idea O’Neill. Now snap out of it.”

“Yes, ma’am!” He grinned, pulling her close. She giggled “I can see where this is going.”

The first two days they didn’t leave the cabin, in fact they barely left the bedroom. “I kinda feel like we’re on our honeymoon” she teased him one night.

“Nah, we’ll go somewhere with sand for that” he had meant it as a joke but the look Sam gave him made him unsure. “I mean…”

“I’d love that Jack, I’m just not sure how to make this work yet alone, marriage.”

“Let’s not overthink it. Nothing good ever comes out of over-thinking.”

She leaned in for a kiss, “You’re right.”

The truth was that Jack was scared stiff about where their relationship was going to end up. All he knew for sure was that he loved her and that he’d never do anything to stand in the way of or jeopardize her career. Even if that meant losing her. “Jack, I love you.”

He let out a breath he hadn’t realized he had been holding, “I love you too.”

“How do you want to handle this?”

“Tell the guys, play it by ear. Keep things quiet until a time when we can be together permanently.”

“And if that never happens?”

“I’m retiring someday. Until then maybe keep things loose. I mean I don’t see me finding anyone to top you but I know I’m not that great of a catch. We both know you could do way better than me,” he tried to laugh.

“Don’t even joke about that. I need you in my life, whatever form that might take.”

“Will the Daedalus have the ability to send and receive private emails?”

“Yes, it should be set up already but if it isn’t then I can set it up to send e-mails along with the regular data bursts when the Daedalus connects with the SGC or Area 51 for regular reports.”

“Do it. Be prepared to get some interesting emails from me.”

“Oh boy” she laughed.

“Hey, I’d prefer what we have now over an email but even an email is better than nothing. I’ll take what I can get.”

“Ditto.”

After their talk Jack was able to relax considerably. “Want to go for a hike or take the canoe out?” He asked her on the third day after lunch.

“I haven’t been canoeing in years, I’d love to take it out.”

“Canoe it is then! Fishing or no fishing?”

“Pass for now, let’s wait for the guys for fishing.”

“I see what you’re doing there Carter, I’m watching you.”

She shot him an innocent smile as she pulled on her jeans and a comfortable sweater. Her waterproof hiking boots were next. They spent the rest of the day out on the water until they returned to shore to watch the sunset. It had been a beautiful, relaxing day. Nowhere to be, nothing to do except whatever they wanted. Sam couldn’t really remember the last time she had let herself relax like this. She was almost starting to feel like a new person.

Saturday morning Sam and Jack laid in bed curled up still naked from the night before; when the phone rang. Sam woke up with a start and fumbled for the cell phone barely opening her eyes. “Hello?”

“Oh ehh, hey Sam.”

“Hey Daniel, what’s up?”

“Oh nothing, I thought I dialed Jack’s number. Ahh anyway Teal’c and I just wanted to let Jack know we made it to the post office, according to his directions I think we should be there in about an hour. I guess I must have called your phone by mistake. Where are you anyway?”

Sam looked down at the phone in her hand, she had picked up Jack’s by accident. “Oh I already made it to the cabin” she said trying to sound natural. Which was getting more difficult since Jack had awoken and started kissing her exposed shoulder. “Daniel I’ve got to go, Jack needs my help with something inside. We’ll see you in about an hour.”

Daniel looked at the phone, checked the number he had just dialed, “That’s odd.”

“What is that Daniel Jackson?”

“I definitely called Jack’s phone but Sam answered.”

“Perhaps he was unavailable.”

“Ehh yeah, maybe.”

Sam hung up the phone and turned to Jack, “Well I guess it’s a good thing we already planned on telling them.”

“A lot can happen in an hour you know,” he grinned.

Forty-five minutes later Sam threw Jack’s boxers at him and made her way into the bathroom. By the time she had finished Jack was already halfway to the dock with two folding chairs and fishing gear in hand. Sam followed him out taking one of the chairs,“That was fun.”

“Yeah it was” he grinned.

They both sat quietly and cast their lines into the water, it was a beautiful morning.

“This is great.”

“I told you.”

“I can’t believe we didn’t do it years ago.”

“Yes well, let’s not dwell.”

They both reeled in their lines preparing for another cast when a fish breached the surface of the pond. They were both so distracted by it they barely heard Daniel and Teal’c come up behind them with a cooler. “Didn’t that tape say there were no fish in your pond?”

They turned to look at each other, “Close enough” Jack replied. He knew she didn’t really approve but there was nothing to be done about it now.

For the first time in a long time he had it all. He had the woman he loved, he had his friends, and he had his fish. Whatever the future held it couldn’t take this moment from them.

“Hey guys, you want a beer?” Daniel asked.

“I’ll take one, Jack isn’t allowed to have any” Sam smirked.

“Aww come on Sam, it’s close enough isn’t it?”

“It’s going to have to be now, but you have no idea how else it could have affected other things.”

“Sure I do, we’ll have fish for dinner, so, can I have a beer? Pretty please?”

“Ok fine! Daniel, you can give Jack a beer.”

Daniel was stunned by their odd behavior but did as he was told. “Thank you, Daniel” Jack gave a satisfied sigh “Personality I think it’s all working out fine.”

Sam couldn’t argue, the truth was that everything seemed just about perfect. “Did you guys have any trouble getting up here?”

“Ehh no, I tried to call earlier.”

“Oh yeah, Sam told me. I was still in bed.”

“You were still in bed so Sam answered your phone for you?”

“Well they were next to each other, it was an honest mistake, right Sammie” he gave her a fond look.

“Absolutely.”

“What’s going on here?”

Teal’c had been listening with interest, “I believe Daniel Jackson, that O’Neill and Colonel Carter are trying to tell us they have finally entered into a romantic relationship.”

Daniel’s eyebrows practically disappeared, “Huh?”

They proceed to fill their friends in on the events of the last several weeks. Glossing over the particulars of their relationship. Sam thought Daniel’s head might implode if he heard anything about their sex life. In fact they had decided to let them believe they had wanted until this trip before making their relationship “official”. Sam switched her pole to her other hand so she could reach for Jack’s hand “We don’t really know how things are going to work out. Jack is going to Washington and I’ve technically already been transferred.”

“That’s what the PowerPoint of the Daedalus was all about, you were trying to see what we would say.”

“Yeah, I didn’t want you two to be too surprised.”

“I will be returning to Ta’kara shortly. O’Neill will be leaving. It is only natural you should wish to go where your skills are most needed.”

“That’s what we figured too.”

“Honestly, the part that surprises me is that there is a loophole worked into the regulations specifically for this type of ehh, situation.”

“Yeah well there’s quite a bit more to it than that but it kinda surprised us too.”

“Had I known about it I might have said something a whole lot sooner. You know, like the day after taking over the SGC,” He smirked at Sam.

“Yes, well. Let’s not dwell” she returned the grin.

“Should Teal’c and I leave you two alone?”

“Nah, we’re good.”

“Gross…”

“Oh what? It’s not like we’re making out like teenagers, in front of you,” Jack complained.

“Yeah well if I hear you two going at it tonight, I’m sleeping outside.”

“Should be a hiking tent in the footlocker by the fireplace,” Jack said flatly, earning a swat on the arm from Sam.

“We’re not that loud!”

“Maybe not me.”

“Ahh, la la la la. This is like finding out your sister is sleeping with your best friend.”

“Indeed,” Teal’c agreed, “O’Neill, if you hurt Samantha Carter I will be forced to do you a great deal of harm.”

“Hey now, I thought we were supposed to be brothers here!”

“They like me more,” Sam grinned widely.

“Yeah well at least that’s something we can all agree on,” Jack said leaning over the side of his chair for a kiss which Sam gladly reciprocated.

Oz : Don't touch her again. Veruca : Come stop me. I like it rough, remember? Oz : You wanna hurt me, hurt me. You leave her out of this. Veruca : How can I? She's the reason you're living in cages. She's blinding you. When she's gone, you'll be able to admit what you are. Oz : You don't wanna find out what I am. Veruca : You're an animal. Animals kill. Oz : You're right. (Advancing towards her.) We kill.

The Sunnydale Herald newsletter, Tuesday, January 24

Xander: But while we hang here doing nothing, there's a human werewolf walking around out there, probably making fun of us. Willow: The way werewolves always do. Oz: But there's really no way to tell who it is. Xander: Oh, sure there is. Giles knows stuff, and I'm practically an expert on the subject. Willow: On account of once you were a hyena? Xander: I know what it's like to crave the taste of freshly killed meat, to be taken over by those uncontrollable urges. Buffy: You said you didn't remember anything about that. Xander: I said I didn't remember anything about that. Look, the point is, is I have an affinity with this thing. I can get inside of its head. I'm a big, bad wolf. I'm on the prowl. I'm sniffing, I'm snarling, I'm a slobbering predator, I'm... Wait a second! It's right in front of us. (Oz's eye go wide with the fear of being recognized) It's obvious who I am. I'm Larry! (Oz breathes a sigh of relief) The guy's practically got wolf-boy stamped on his forehead. You got the dog bite, you got the aggression, not to mention the excessive back hair.

MALE VOICE: Where are you from, Harris? XANDER: Well, the basement, mostly. MALE VOICE: Were you born there? XANDER: Possibly. VOICE: I walked by your guidance counselor's office one time. (The person sits up partway and we see it's Principal Snyder, with a towel around his neck.) SNYDER: A bunch of you were sitting there ... waiting to be shepherded. I remember it smelled like dead flowers. Like decay. Then it hit me. The hope of our nation's future is a bunch of mulch. XANDER: You know, I never got the chance to tell you how glad I was you were eaten by a snake.

Giles: Thank heavens you're home. Buffy: Yup! Not at the dance. Not with my friends. Not with a life. What are you doing here? I thought we were gonna meet at the museum to find the bodyguard. Giles: No, he's already been found. In a school restroom. Mummified. Buffy: Okay, I don't get it. Why would the mummy kill her own bodyguard? Giles: Well, I've cross-referenced, and, uh, I've looked at the pictograms anew. He was a guard alright. But it was his job to insure that the mummy didn't awaken and escape. Buffy: So, Ampata translated wrong. Giles: Perhaps.

Buffy and Faith are in the Deputy Mayor's office. Faith notices a picture of him with the Mayor. Buffy goes through papers. Faith picks up the picture and stares at it, cradling it gently. FAITH: He came out of nowhere. BUFFY: (sympathetically) I know. FAITH: (annoyed) Whatever. (She puts down the picture.)

Faith: I think you need to brush up on your Buffy and Faith history. Robin Wood: (chuckles) All right, if you say so. But I read people pretty well. It's a thing I do. Faith: (stands) You, uh, live around here, right? Wood: Uh, no, not exact — Well, it's the center of town, really. Faith: This town, walking anywhere after dark is like an extreme sport. Someone who didn't know you very well might think you were out lookin' for a fight or something. (mock-punches him) Maybe you got bigger issues than what's wrong with B. I read people, too.

JULIE: You didn't even have to sound anything out. XANDER: You should see me add short columns of small numbers. JULIE: You're funny. XANDER: Thanks.

The Sunnydale Herald Newsletter, Saturday, August 27th

LORNE: The world ending? Huh, it's kind of a funny story. I'm at the club last night. Fairly typical Wednesday crowd. A Torto demon and his parasite were *murdering* the Everly Brothers ... LORNE: ... which is nothing compared to what Elian had done to my sea-breeze! LORNE: (sipping and grimacing) Oh! Is this a difficult concept? Were we absent the day they taught sea-breeze in bartender school? Vodka, cranberry, *fresh* grapefruit juice. Which requires a real live grapefruit. One you must cut and squeeze, not pour from a can. LORNE: ... Oh. The man is *such* a moron. You have no idea how I'm suffering since Ramone left. ANGEL: Oh, I have an idea. Can you just get to the point already?
