flickerflash | [Action]

[After Katie makes an offer to Jack this morning, she finally braves the teleporters to come travelling into town from the beach the way any normal person would. Which is annoying to the extreme, and she really needs to ask someone about her lost magic, because just hopping over the mountain range was extraordinarily convenient. But she has people to check in on in the wake of the huge storm, now she's feeling a lot more stable.

Her friends, to make sure they're okay. And those she ran into in the forest, to make sure they're okay.

Ergo, her stops are:

Houses #5, #6, and #7
House Avatar
And she's also looking for a weird guy in a dirty trenchcoat. To apologise for being so rude, if nothing else.
Last of all, Raine.

She's very quietly kind of stomping through the street, though she'll stop to jump her way through any leaves or even water still left pooled behind. Still a kid, after all.]

((ooc: sob this will be terribly slow, but timing is important. Anyone's welcome to tag even if Katie is specifically looking for certain people, but I will be excruciatingly slow for a few days. Annnd given this is the aftermath of some threads that are still not finished yet, those on Katie's last post are welcome to placeholder this post and we can do that thread once we finish the first one.))

Classy. You can't argue with diamonds. Or so I hear. I've never been on the receiving end of them.

You should ask Jack for diamonds. He's a pirate. He should have some.

[ oh. she fiddles with the jade ring. ] Maybe you should tell him that. I think it might be a little tacky for me to ask.

I shall have to see what I can do. [She'll be the soul of discretion. Honest.] Do you like other things like that? I mean, sapphires or emeralds?

Rubies are nice. But...

[ buffy sits back; she confesses: ] Katie? Jack could give me pebbles he liked the look of when he found them on the path and I'd be thrilled.

[...

Katie smiles. It's very easy to see the love there. Near literally, in fact.]

I bet the pebbles would be very flattered, too. They don't get very much love.

[ it's been a long time coming but...yeah. definite, genuine love -- writ large all over her face.

buffy smiles back and points at a little box on her nightstand. it isn't quite close enough to be in reach for a banged up slayer. ]

Here. Can you pass me that? I can show you the general calibre of his gifts.

Oh! Okay, then. [She does so eagerly, holding out the box in both hands to Buffy. She suspects jewellery, and jewellery boxes are always fun.]

[ she opens the box and pulls out a ring made of twisted tin-foil. a bracelet, too. ]

See? A pebble might be an improvement.

[...it's actually the kind of gift to appeal to the fae. Handwrought gifts are easiest to impart glamour. Katie smiles at the bracelet and reaches out a finger to touch, before pulling back.]

But he wouldn't have made the pebbles himself. This way you know he was thinking of you.
