[the entry starts off with the impatient drum of fingers against the counter, before there is a snippy Cordelia voice on the other end of it]

Okay. Someone please tell me that Xander is on a loss, or wandered off into the woods and got himself lost, or something equally Xander-like and pathetic, because he is supposed to be here, working in my club, and he is most definitely not.

[a huff]

If he got himself eaten by the castle again, I may have to smack him hard the next time he gets here. He can't keep showing up and getting sucked into black holes.

[Cordelia? Angry that the castle might have taken Xander again? Never. She's just pissed that she's down another employee.

That's totally the reason.]

[oh, yeah, this is exactly who she wants to hear from]

And I was a mannequin for a month. I know how losses work.

You were a mannequin?

[letsbe_clear]

Yep. Don't remember it, but that's what they tell me.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

You could check the nameplate on his door.

[letsbe_clear]

I'll do that after I close up. I'm at work now.

That's right, you took over Caritas.

[letsbe_clear]

I took over Caritas.

Should I add it to my list of places I should stay away from?

[letsbe_clear]

Actually ... here I don't mind so much.

[ ... might have to do with the sanctuary spell making her feel more protected, or maybe she's over ... no, actually, it's just the sanctuary spell.]

[ never one to look a gift-horse in the mouth. but, is there a catch? clearly not the point, here. he's just going to care ]

If you give me his room number I can check for you. I won't knock [ or bite him ]. I'll just check the name plate. [ she's worried. and he wants to ease that worry ]

[letsbe_clear]

[she's hesitant. still not trusting him? Yeeeeeep.]

I think Spike's going to head over there.

[read: she'll make Spike go over there]

But thanks.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

You realize if my plan was to go there, find him, and bite him -- well, it wouldn't exactly have been foolproof.

[letsbe_clear]

I didn't think that was your plan. I just don't need ten people to tell me whether or not his nameplate is there.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

Spike is it, then. For the record, I hope he is. There.

[letsbe_clear]

You and me both.
