*Giles' brow furrowed.* "Strange," *he murmured.* "I'll have to do some reading on it. See what I can find."

*Buffy rolled her eyes. Yes, reading. That would solve all their problems.*
"And just for the record there, like, nothing going on between me an Spike," *she said, apropos of nothing.* "Were you even there for that?"

"For what?" *he asked blandly, beginning to get over his shock at seeing her again and becoming quite his old self. Whatever that self was.* "Quite frankly the gory details are none of my business."

*Buffy blushed.*
"No, they're totally not!" *she said.* "I've just... heard things. About what happened after I died and came back. The second time. But, you know, I wasn't there."

"Get yourself a cup of coffee or something, Buffy. You need to calm down, right now. Consider what your next move will be. Do you have any marketable skills?"
*Beat.*
"Legally marketable."

*There was a loud scoff from the corner where Spike had totally not been eavesdropping. Then he went to the opposite one to do something that wasn't sulking, no matter how much it looked like it.*

*Buffy stared at him.*
"Marketable skills?" *she echoed in disbelief.* "So that's it? No more Slayer? You were serious?"
*She heard Spike behind her and the treacherous thought--that he'd never asked her to be something she wasn't--crossed her mind.*

"Will you PLEASE lower your voice, for heaven's sake this is a library!" *hissed Giles.* "And we've had to bloody well do without you for ten years, so I think we're entitled to give someone else a chance."

"Fine," *Buffy bit off, tears stinging her eyes.* "I'll get out of your bloody library. Why don't you just kill me, huh? Then you'd get your new, improved, moldable Slayer."
*She turned on her heel and, plucking at Spike's sleeve, started walking out.*
"We'll take the sewers, Spike," *she said.* "I guess I'll be getting used to the gutter."

*Giles sighed heavily.*
"Buffy..."

*Buffy rounded on him, her hair spinning in an arc behind her.*
"No, Giles. If you're removing me from my place as Slayer--which, you know, doesn't really make me any less of one than the last time I severed ties with the Council--then you're not my Watcher anymore. And I don't have to listen to you."
*She spun back around and marched out.*

*Spike looked up. He hadn't expected that one. Well, best to roll with the punches. Of the pair of them, he knew which he preferred the company of, even when she was pissed. He nodded shortly to Giles and slipped out after her.*
((I'll post them on a street somewhere.))

((Sorry, thought the scene was over )) **LATER** *With all the craziness that was going on, Aimee wanted to talk to only three people: Marius, her mother, and Alexei. She lived with Marius, obviously, and she'd just been to see her mother, who'd told her Alexei tended to be here or at some girl named Valerie's apartment. Hmm. Now she really needed to talk to him.* *She stepped out of the carriage with help from the coachman and then motioned for him to wait there. She could enter a library by herself, she hoped. She walked up to the desk, only waddling a little bit despite the rather large bump on her stomach. She was still weirdly underweight.* "Excuse me, but have you seen anyone by the name of Alexei Thenardier? Tall, skinny, light brown hair, blue eyes?" ((I can haz Valerie, or does she just not work at the library anmore?))

((She'd be in the basement. NPC Danielle can help.))
*Danielle stopped picking at a scabby spot on her chin and glanced over at the study section with muddy brown eyes.*
"There?" *she said with a shrug.*

*Aimee pursed her lips and blinked her eyes. This wasn't going to get anywhere.* "Could I speak with your supervisor, please?" *She asked politely.*
