I've been constantly drunk since I was like 16 years old. Yeah, it'll kill me.

[LIVING THE LIFE, BUFFY.]

[herotypical]

That's --

[ depressing. ]

You have a problem. Has anyone told you that you have a problem?

[tacticalturtleneck]

I have a lot of problems. All of them solved by drinking. Thanks for caring, come again.

[Fuck da doctors.]

Seriously, the prohibition era was like a billion years ago, why do you care?

[herotypical]

I care 'cause if your boat gets to sinking under the weight of a hundred proverbial DUIs, I'm the innocent bystander sinking with it.

[ emphasis on the innocent ok. ]

[tacticalturtleneck]

First, I always outrun the cops. Second, fuck the police. Third, fuck the police.

[Fuck the police.]

[ ugh give her a moment to wrap her head around this. ]

Aren't spies, like, under that big ol' governmental umbrella? Aren't you therefore supposed to be pro-cop?

[ not that she's pro-cop. sunnydale's finest never left her feeling all that encouraged. but she's surprised to hear this from archer.

somehow. really. at this point she just needs to stop being surprised by anything. ]

[tacticalturtleneck]

What, you think I work for the CIA?

[Laughing out loud, literally.]

Hahaha, oh my god. Why would I even be caught anywhere near a bunch of amateurs like that?

[herotypical]

Who do you work for?

[ SHOULD YOU EVEN TELL HER? ]

[tacticalturtleneck]

ISIS.

[Not destroyed yet in his time. And thankfully not a terrorist organization in hers.]

It's like, an international spy organization. But we don't work for commies.

[herotypical]

You freelance.

[ how does she make that sound like a dirty word? idk. she just does. despite being something of a freelancer herself. ]

[tacticalturtleneck]

Why the hell are you saying that like I'm some kind of babykiller who stalks the night? What did freelance work ever do to you? Kill a vampire before you could?

[Sheesh!]

[herotypical]

Let's just say I'm not exactly...comfortable with the idea of for-hire spy work. Doesn't that crap need at least a modicum of loyalty? To someone? Anyone?

[ girl's watched too many bond movies. ]

[tacticalturtleneck]

It just needs a lot of secrecy or no one will hire you.

[And who here is the least secret person ever?]

The money is pretty good too.
