should have is an understatement, and she responds to it with a barking laugh.  ❛   don’t tempt me ——the night is still young.  ❜   rolling her eyes, buffy relaxes more than she probably should. despite their somewhat friendly relationship, she’s still a slayer, and he’s the kind of thing she usually slays. she already knows what the rest of the gang would say if they knew about these meetings ——accidental or otherwise. 

❛   blah blah blah, whatever. i get it, you’re cocky. but tone it down a notch, will ya ?  ❜    as he continues, her eyes widen marginally, gaze moving from him to the mess at her feet, and she lets out a frustrated sigh.  ❛  this was your handiwork ? ugh.   ❜    she’d throw her hands up in the air if the crossbow’s weight wasn’t a factor, but instead she crouches down to get a better look at the body. at first glance, nothing stands out, and she looks back up to ky’lar with a raised brow.   ❛  and this helps me, how ?   ❜

_{he clapped his hands again; just due to the fact he could. ❛ i could also turn it up a few notches, but i’ll try to refrain from doing anything too fatal. ❜ a lie, if ky had the chance, there was no doubt in his mind he’d make things fatal. in-fact, he was planning on making things that way as  soon as he could. that way, he wouldn’t have to deal with explanations later on.}

_{❛ as for them, ❜ he gestured towards the body,   ❛ they were getting a little too close for comfort and i took the initiative to dispose of them. ❜ ky shrugged.  ❛ i didn’t get fully what they were after, but it’s  not a big deal. ❜ well, not really in his mind, but it was – more so  since ky knew more than he was letting on.  ❛ besides,  it’s not the first time  i had to… dispose of someone snooping around. ❜}
