Buffy Summers

 Ok, so the spontaneous song and dance routine?  

Seen it before.  Doesn't end well.  So if anyone starts seeing sparks or smoke, watch out.   The next little ditty could be the showstopping finale that'll put a real damper on your future career as an... anything.

Speaking of, Spike, I might need your help on this if it does turn out to be a sequel to My Fair Sunnydale, so if you're listening--

[There's one piano note and the mood immediately shifts.  There's suddenly dramatic blue lighting, and the words she meant to say are replaced with... something completely different.]

Just lay it all down.
Put your face into my neck and let it fall out.
I know, I know ,I know. I knew before you got home.
This world you're in now,
it doesn't have to be alone,
I'll get there somehow, 'cos
I know I know I know
when, even springtime feels cold.

[Her eyes are pretty much dinner plates right now, and she looks decidedly more vulnerable than anyone's ever seen her on the barge.  She couldn't say these things out loud to Spike in private, and now here they go across the public channel.  But thanks to ~flood magic~, she slowly comes to forget the fact, and there's a pervasive honestly behind her voice that seems to imply she's not just admitting something here, but making an important case at the same time.]

( Oh, there's more. 8| )

[There's a pause when the music dies down, and Buffy stares down at the bottom corner of the screen, trying to catch the breath she's suddenly lost.]

Um.

[When words fail to crop up and provide her with an adequate excuse for what she just sang, she reaches out and shuts it off.  Fast.]

[Warden filter]

All accounts strung together paint a pretty technicolor picture here.  Not only did Arthas attack Ana, but apparently there was that other whole kidnapping issue with Hix - and I was already in the process of dealing with him throwing out death threats to someone else, when I found out about these things.

For those who don't know, I've been assigned as his temporary warden, though I was told that meant I wasn't to deal with any of the actual rehabilitation-y angles of the warden-inmate dynamic, but someone's got to do something.  I'm throwing him in Level Zero.  If I don't have the power to do anything more than that, I'm relatively sure no one's going to complain about that much, especially at this point.    And if they do?  They can take it up with me.  

Anybody with information on either of these instances?  Better bring it to my attention.  And I'm really hoping no one's got anything else to add to the growing pile here, but if you do tell me.  This is why I checked in with everyone about him last week, so that if there was anything bubbling up towards the surface, I could deal with it before it ... over-bubbled. 

I think it's clear we're beyond the bubbling stage now.

[Private to Agent 47]

Did you honestly go try to handle this by yourself without even giving me a heads-up first?

You better at least give me a full report of what went down.

[Private to the Admiral]

So how much lee-way does a temporary warden get around here?  I'm pretty sure keeping him from killing somebody is among my rights.

[Editing in a private to the Doctor]

The box with the sword.  What happened to it?

[[Buffy's heading straight down to Arthas' room before she even checks for responses here.  If Arthas-mun wants, we can handle that in spam or a log, or if he's going quietly it can be assumed he's down there now.]]
