        ^{a huff of frustration, and she’ll counter with her very own eye roll, one hand on her hip, the other gripping her knife.  ❛   picked the wrong town to skulk through, i’m afraid — sunnydale is fresh out of wait-list-cuisine, and i don’t think any of our local restaurants serve your kind.    ❜}   

^{a lie, of course, the average person couldn’t tell a denizen of the dark from a normal human on their best day. it’s the simple fact that keeps her running around with weapons as an extracurricular rather than shopping and going to parties like a normal girl her age.}    

          ^{❛   look, even assholes anonymous isn’t gonna save you. so you might as well cut your losses right here an now.  ❜}   

^{with that, she winds back and throws the weapon like a dart — a bullseye in front of her serving as the beacon — as she’s aiming straight for his heart.} 

         _{he was going to debate with her; to even push forth the subject that no one was his kind. then again, there was doubt that the conversation would have honestly went anywhere. it was to that specific reason that he took a step forward — to at least get less of a distance between them. maybe then, he could at least explain himself, but even that was a long shot.}

_{either way, he wasn’t really expecting anything to be thrown at him, but at the same time, he was hoping this to be an easy night. amusement, a few drinks, and a very nice dinner. maybe even an ice cold room to stay in for the next three days. of course, at this rate, he wasn’t going to get any of them.}

_{that thought was only connected to the weapon digging right into his heart. if he was human, it would have killed him — or most creatures honestly. then again, it still hurt… worse than he would admit at any rate as his right hand moved to grip around the edge of the weapon. he didn’t pull it out, but he still was a bit… uneasy about it being stuck in him as it served as a reminder. a reminder… that he wasn’t human. well, not any-more at least, but he could still bleed.  still feel pain.}

_{❛ —- you remind me of my ex, ❜ the words were said as a deep sigh escaped his lips. maybe he shouldn’t have been so nonchalant about this,  but then again, even ky knew things were bad. even worse since he quit trying to control himself,  ❛ now, ❜ he said through gritted teeth,  ❛ if i was a vampire… you might have killed me. luckily for both of us… i have only worked with one in the past. ❜}
