Moss, moss, everywhere. Luckily the terrain is getting smoother, no more sharp rocks underneath the green moss, waiting to break your ankles. The forest looks like no one has been here for ages. No B&B for you. The good news is that the animals don't fear humans and you should have no problem catching yourself some dinner.

You mean the satan nun or the psychopath that put a sword through Hel's chest? Yeah, they seemed like really stand up citizens. I can see how you fit right in.

[well that just hangs in the air all vitriolic and definitely accusier. she waits a beat before sighing and settling back down, because despite how it's gone so far she didn't actually come over here to start shit with the teenager. she makes an impatient noise in her throat and adds grudgingly]

...So why don't you work for him anymore?

[ mutters while bo's still talking-- ] didn't say they were brady bunch material-- [ but then closes her mouth, because she definitely didn't like them enough to be defending them so hard. really, it's mostly that they accepted her among them, that not a one among them shamed her for the things she's done. no casting of stones. no judgement, so long as you could get the job done. none of the gut-twisty black void she felt when all of buffy's little friends would look at her with disgust. ]

Why do you wanna know? What-- what's in it for you, why are you even talking to me, asking questions? Digging for information, you trying to get me to rat on the old man, is that it?

Is everything about an ulterior motive with you?

[wonders at her, shaking her head like she's second guessing this trying to make nice business. i mean all they've ever done is butt heads, and there was the whole trying to kill her debacle. still she kinda feels sorry for her, so she just holds a hand up]

Nevermind, forget I asked.

[onsanityfair]

I'm bad.

[ blurts it out, like a verbal swat at bo's Done hand. ]

[ doesn't really have a follow up, either, so just sits there awkwardly while her fire sizzles when some bunny fuzz falls in. ]

[that is awkward. stares at her like she's not sure she just heard her right. this would usually be where she makes inappropo innuendo. drops her hands to her lap. it reminds her she's just a kid, obviously with some serious issues, and it's just a little bit enough like herself before she found kenzi to be comfortable]

Who told you that?

[onsanityfair]

[ sitting. surly sitting. is this stupid rabbit at a food service safe internal temperature yet. ]

[ picks at the end of the stick, peeling bark with her thumbnail. ]

Dunno. Me. [ flicks some of the bark away. ] Everybody else. I just. You think so too, right, and I mean why not. I'm not in the Hapless Heroes club these days. Haven't exactly been paying my dues.
