Angelus: I'll be spending some time with Dru she seems to be having more visions lately...

'Di: Shegetswhatnow??

Angelus: *smirks at Di* Whats wrong sugar? You didn't think I kept Dru around for her looks did you?
*chuckles* No, I keep her close by for what she can SEE, it's so very useful.

'Di: *Looks sheepish and draws an idle circle in the dirt* To be honest, pretty much.

Angelus: *snorts* I suppose you think I keep you around because you think yourself pretty?

'Di: *Shakes her head* No... I figured I was of some use, though.

Angelus: Oh you are, very useful indeed...without you I couldn't have managed to take buffy down unharmed, and I might have gotten carried away and never had the chance to raise Artemis, and what a wicked little thing she is despite the taint of her mothers blood, and of course you have your own unique set of abilities...and I don't doubt I'll find a way to put them to use as well...and until then your quite a pleasant distraction
And lets not forget that your my sweet little tool of revenge, your mother stole predators away from the oasis to eat from her palm like little birds, and I stole you from her...it's a fair enough trade I suppose.

'Di: *Hangs her head a bit* I see...

Angelus: Don't look so downhearted Di, you need to embrace your unique attributes, you could learn to take pleasure in the things the world has to offer. Look at me and Dru, do you think we lay awake at night sobbing over some little otters broken neck and bleeding body? Of course thats not to say we don't lay awake at night doing other things...*he chuckled*

'Di: I know you don't. *Straightens* And I don't stay awake at night.

Angelus: then you should come join us...you could learn so much...*smirks*

'Di: *Looks away* I... think I am educated enough.

Angelus: *grins* want to come take a pop quiz then? *chuckles*

'Di: *Takes a step back away from him* N-no, that's okay...

Angelus: *narrows his eyes suddenly* Careful Di...You wouldn't want to hurt my feelings...

'Di: *Eyes widen* Please don't be mad. I... I...

Angelus: *steps closer* Your nervous?

'Di: *Shrugs her shoulders, not sure if "nervous" covered it, but looks almost fearful*

Angelus: *lightly strokes her cheek and smiles* Maybe you just need more attention, my poor little Di...I have been spending too much time with Dru...and you must be so lonely...

'Di: *Shakes her head* N-no, I'm not lonely. I don't get lonely.

Angelus: *watches her carefully* Everyone gets lonely Di...don't worry *smirks* I'll take good care of you, after all I wouldn't want your parents worrying, that would hurt them wouldn't it?

'Di: *Frowns* You get lonely? *Quickly shuts her mouth*

Angelus: *chuckles* I told you Dru is usefull...of course even I need companionship

'Di: My kind doesn't need companionship... *Hopes he doesn't go after her again*

Angelus: *tilts his head* Oh? You would be content to never see another living being again? *gets a strange glimmer in his eyes*

'Di: *Shrinks back a bit* No, because that would imply I wouldn't be alive anymore...

Angelus: What if you were the only one alive?

'Di: *Looks confused* I'd die of starvation?

Angelus: *chuckles* So clever...
'Di: *Doesn't know what to say to that* I suppose...

Angelus: *moves closer and strokes her cheek* You know...your such a mystery di...Buffy was an open book, I could look in her eyes and it was a portal straight into her every desire and secret and fear...but you...your like a clam shut so tight it needs to be cracked to even see if it contains any meat at all...

'Di: Glances away and narrows her eyes* I guarantee you, you won't find anything. There's nothing there.

Angelus: *chuckles* I have the feeling your the tenderest meat of all...

'Di: You've lost me. Not sure I want to understand, though.

Angelus: Probably not *grins*

'Di: If YOU think so, then I really don't need to.

Angelus: *laughs and strokes her cheek again* I think I enjoy you as much as Dru

'Di: *Mumbles* Don't tell HER that.

Angelus: *chuckles* It'll be our little secret

'Di: Mmm. Wouldn't want to make her mad

Angelus: *grins* Oh shes quite mad...*smirks and licks her cheek* but I wont tell

'Di: *Flinches at the lick*

Angelus: *smiles and turns* You go get some rest my lonely little one...

'Di: *Flees to her den to huddle near the back and miss Logan*

Connor: *Lounges in a tree* Having fun, Father?

Angelus: *growls at Conner* Quite a bit actually, and you? What have you been doing with your worthless hide?

Connor: Watching you prove to be the a** I always figured you to be. Good for you, living up to my expectations.

Angelus: Someone has to be a proper rolemodel for you boy, or who knows what kind of pathetic runt you could turn out as. Wheres Artemis? I'm sure she's getting her claws bloodied up? Hunting, or somesuch...you should help her you know, afraid of getting bloodstains on your precious pale fur?

Connor: Oh, what a rolemodel. Can't get the ladies to come to you, so you just take, huh? Good job. *Looks off, then shrugs* Eh, perhaps. Or maybe I've just taken a leaf out of your book and decided to let the girls do all the work.

Angelus: She was asking for it, besides it will improve her. As for work I do plenty, you think Dru can hunt proper? But yes...maybe poor Artemis is a bit overburdened...I'll order her to stay home for a few nights and take over the hunting myself, better quality blood that way...*smirks*

Connor: *Smirks right back at him, looking very much like his father in his expressions* And that is why I do my own hunting. You have horrible taste in food.

Angelus: Your an ingrate...*he snarled his eyes glowing like your mother...*

Connor: *Narrows his eyes a bit and rests his head on his paws* Sticks and stones, Father.

Angelus: *mutters* Just like his ******** mother...*snarls*

Connor: *Glares* No, Father. I'm. Just. Like. You.

Angelus: *growls up at him* Hardly, I only have Artemis to work with, girls constantly out and bloodthirsty, my only pride.

Connor: I may not be as bloodthirsty as your precious little huntress, but take a good long look. Bastards beget bastards after all.

Angelus: *smirks* We'll see...

Connor: I suppose we will. *Narrows his eyes again before closing them and turning his face away from Angelus*

Angelus: *huffs and heads back to the den* ARTEMIS!

Connor: *Growls, stands, and flies off into the forest*
