Catwoman has posed:
Selina Kyle has been pretty busy lately, preparing for her next heist. Ever since her latest attendance at a certain rich but twisted man's house, she's been rummaging through her closet for some equipment to get together. However, she's been feeling pretty frustrated with her limited gear and curses softly under her breath.

The bedroom has a small pile of some older equipment, some of worn or damaged as she looks for something in particular. "Dammit.." she sighs.

Spike has posed:
Spike, for his part, has been busy himself. He made a few trips back to Bludhaven against his better judgement. He also managed to pick up a few "side gigs" to bring in a little extra coin. Gone are the days he could just kill someone and take it from them. He has to actually earn a coin or at least work out a plan to steal it.

Catwoman has posed:
Selina Kyle yawns and stretches as she finally gathers some equipment that may be of use to her, packing it away in her compact backpack, for later. "Hmm..." she smiles, picking up a flash bomb. "This will work nicely.."

It takes her a moment or two to realize she is not alone, and she steps back into the common room, smirking as she spots Spike there. "Hey there, I haven't seen you in a bit..How was the trip to Bludhaven?" She crosses the room swiftly, planting a soft but sweet kiss on his cheek.

Spike has posed:
He smirks as she starts towards him. He missed out on the equip plan so he oblivious for now. He leans forward enough for her to kiss his cheek,"It was...eventful." he admits with a shrug,"There is rarely a slow day in Bludhaven or Sunnydale either one. Too many bad monsters with long teeth."

Of course, that is a bit self depriciating. He lets his hands rest on her hips for a moment,"You have any excitement in your world while I was gone?" He winks and considers,"More to the point, do you have in plans to do anything tonight? I'd hate to admit it, but I missed you."

Catwoman has posed:
Selina Kyle was planning go to pass by him and do more packing, but she smirks, swaying in his grasp a moment longer, wrapping her arms around his neck. "Glad to have you back. I know you'll always have a second ho,e in Bludhaven, and that sweet girl -Dawn - seems attacked to you, hmm?" she grins. "Good thing I'm not the jealous type. But I'm always happy to hear of your exciting adventures with the Scoobies!"

As for herself, Selina just shrugs, reaching up to brush a strand of blonde hair out of his eyes, cupping his cheek in her hand fur a moment thoughtfully, "Hmm where to begin..Well, I was invited to a wealthy business owner's party, only to discover he had destroyed a lot of natural habitat full of potentially endangered species in order to expand his real estate empire..I'm sure he did it illegally, it's Soo unfair.." she looks quite upset about it really.

"Soo I've decided to rob his pretty little mansion. Want in?"

Spike has posed:
"I'm not sure her sister or mother likes the attachement. I will admit that makes it hilarious." he tells her in confidence,"You have nothing to be jealous of so that is good." he agrees. Thinking it over, he tells her,"Well there was an interesting cult like gathering. Managed to throw some fists and trade skin with them. I think maybe we stopped something that was potentailly apocalyptic in nature. Just another day."

The option of robbery gets a winks,"I stay away a few days and my girl gets a brilliant idea. I'm in." he agrees and looks towards the cabinet,"After a drink I think." Hey, priorities. Even he has a few.

Catwoman has posed:
Selina Kyle smirks, running her fingers through his hair. "Hmm...Well, I think that's kinda ironic..Dont you? I mean it's one way to get back at Miss Simmers for years of torment, hmm? Dawn really is a sweet girl though.We sure put her skills to great use, hmm?" she grins and winks.

As for her upcoming heist, she nods, "Right, lovely little mansion, full of all sorts of goodies. It'd serve him right if I robbed the place. payback for hurting all those poor kitties.." she smiles wickedly, "Here I am, plotting sweet revenge while you're playing 'hero', saving the world..When did our priorities get so mixed up?"

Spike has posed:
He leans in to kiss her lips lightly and waggles his brows,"The problem with Dawn being I need a woman. She isn't there yet. Currently I have one that has my attention on her even when I'm not near her." he admits. Selina might have him loving her a little.

"We're been corrupted by the white hats of the world. We were honest bad sorts and other people have ruined us. Polluted and needing to shake it off by doing something just wrong." His eye brows waggle,"After doing somthing just bad to each other."

Catwoman has posed:
Selina Kyle smirks, "She is a bit young..Good thing you have me, hmm?" she winks, pressing a slow, sweet kiss against his lips in turn. "Don't worry, I'm not threatened by her or anything, she's really quite cute actually. I dunno if they'll ever let her visit again. though.."

As for sorting ' good ' and 'bad' out, Selina just smirks and shrugs, "It's complicated. I mean, we sometimes do bad things for good reasons. Is that so bad? Why do the good guys always have to get caught up with what's proper and right? Sometimes the Justice system just doesn't irk and to get real Justice you need to take the law into your own hands! Yknow?"

Spike has posed:
If only they both knew exactly how old Dawn really was,"Good thing. I need a woman, not a woman in training." he teases back,"As for the visit, who knows. It depends how deep her sister and her scoobies get into trouble. They have a tendency of wanting to keep her far from it. Even if that means bringing her to the big bad in a strange city to hide her."

"The advantage of my existence, good and bad gets pretty blurry at times. At the risk of sounding cliche', everything we do is layered in grey. Almost the good guy, without being insuffereably honorable and hung up on the ideas of right and wrong."

Catwoman has posed:
Selina Kyle nods and sighs, "Imdeed. Too bad I can't get Batman to realize that too..He's Soo set on Justice and doing things the right way..Which is a pity. He'd be a...Nice ally." she'd be lying if she said she didn't think of him occasional,y.
