★ 48 [Video] but all of my pieces are jagged

[mightbeconcussed]

[The video pans around The Masters Lucy's flat. There's a slow pan of kitchen, living room, the stair well and even the fire pole before the camera turns, giving a quick glimpse of the Newfoundland dog lying on the floor and the cat on the back of the couch. The video settles on Lucy's face.]

So I'm back home and everything survived, including me. It's nice to have the City back to whatever passes for normal here.

Octavian and Derek, uber thanks for being my roman in shining armor and pretty boy with a gun. I'm going to cook. I'll bring some food over. Sweet potato pie, fried chicken and cheese grits for everyone.

[Private to Chris]

Hey, if you got alcohol poisoning and died at the police station I'm going to be pissed.

....I can't die more'n dead. Only I'm not meant to drink alla same, cos I'm on this stuff. Can smoke. I think. I will do anyway, can't quit smokin' on top of this.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

On what stuff? There's stuff?

I know smoking isn't supposed to be cool but it's kind of sexy anyway. All James Dean and rebel without a cause.

[justcautious.livejournal.com]

It's stuff. I dunno. Cos of the dyin' stuff. Makes it stop hurtin' so much.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

Oh! Like medical weed. Does it make you happy? Or at least mellow and chill?

[justcautious.livejournal.com]

Um......happier than before when I weren't on this. Yeah. Reckon I am.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

Good.

Does it work on alive people?

[justcautious.livejournal.com]

Should do? I dunno. I'm not a doctor or sommat.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

Can I try some?

[justcautious.livejournal.com]

....the doctor only has it, an' it's a shot anyway. ........pretty sure that's....um....I'm a copper, Lucy. M'not a trafficafer.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

There's no trafficing going on! Okay in retrospect I might should have not--let me get dressed if you're going to put me in jail. Can I bring a magazine?

[justcautious.livejournal.com]

Ehm........don't think I will, really. Off with a warnin', let's say, alright, love?

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

Aww I sort of wanted to stay in jail for something totally scandalous but I'll take a warning.

[justcautious.livejournal.com]

.........you want a criminal record?

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

A little one.

[justcautious.livejournal.com]

What for?

[rehymenator]

It's good to see you unharmed.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

Cassie.

I was pretty sure you were dead or off the reservation. [It's said with a bit of a pout and some accusing]

[rehymenator]

I was-- busy.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

Right. I got the memo. Cas, too busy for me. No love.

[rehymenator]

The barrier needed fixing, and harpies-- and you're all right. Right?

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I get it. The world needed saving.

I'm fine. Someone else came to help me.

[rehymenator]

...You're still angry.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

Ding Ding Ding.

Are all angels this bright or are you top of the class? [Sarcasm? GASP Never!]

[rehymenator]

[ Sigh, Lucy. The biggest sigh ever even. ]

I had no other choice. And you're fine, so it's all right now.

[ He is a master of idiocy, yes. ]

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

[She is not phased by your sighs, Cas]

But there was a distinct possibility of me dead and I have no possibly evil, definitely scary boyfriend here to save me now. I have you and Chris and I like Chris. I'm his friend but scary...he's really not. I mean I killed him when I was a vampire.

[rehymenator]

[Well. That makes him take a fairly lengthy pause.]

Lucy...

[Wait for it...]

I'm sorry. I don't always remember.

[mghtbconcussed.livejournal.com]

[The lengthy pause and the apology pretty much do the collapsing her anger thing. He gets a sigh now]

I'm going to get an angel signal. [And then she remembers that he doesn't have any pop culture foundation] Like the bat signal but...for you. So you'll remember.
