Early morning workout.
Date of Scene: 27 July 2021
Location: Apartment, the Blue Lady
Synopsis: Thomas tells Buffy about a strange dream. They fight. they make up.
Cast of Characters: Thomas Raith, Buffy Summers




Thomas Raith has posed:
It's only six in the morning but Thomas is out of bed. One of the perks of being a White Court vampire is that he doesn't really need to work out to stay in great shape, but this morning? He's stripped to his waist wearing a pain of loose boxing trunks and pounding on a heavy bag, sweat already clinging to his body.

Buffy Summers has posed:
Buffy Summers actually had a rare day off from working, patrolling and everything else. Which was nice, because she kept getting nightmares again which made it hard to get some sleep..

Especially when someone is up bright and early, hitting something really hard. She yawns, rubbing her eyes, then sits upright. Eyes widenned, jumping out of the bed, still dressed in a short blue silk night shirt.

"what the...What's going on?!" she frowns, darting around the apartment, searching for the source of the noise, ready to fight..whatever is attacking the apartment.

Thomas Raith has posed:
Thomas Raith blinks slightly and looks over as Buffy comes in. Usually a fairly upbeat morning person, particularly when he spent the night in the arms of a particular blonde, his expression is uncharictoristicly dour this morning. "Oh, good morning beautiful. Did I wake you?" He asks as he takes a nearby towel and wipes his forehead. "Leeme grab a shower if you wanna get the coffee started?"

Buffy Summers has posed:
Buffy Summers bites her lip as she realizes the source of the noise. "Thomas..? What's going on?" well, there's a workout and then there's a 'workout'. She's almost afraid to ask, but at least no one is breaking in.."What's got you so riled up?"

Thomas Raith has posed:
Thomas Raith sighs and drops his hands, leaning foreward and pressing his forehead agienst the bag and shaking it slightly. "It's so stupid. And It's got me pissed, and when I tell you, you are going to laugh at me." He says annoyed.

Buffy Summers has posed:
Buffy Summers frowns, stepping nearer to him, resting a hand on his arm. "Come on Thomas, nothing is 'too stupid' and clearly it's got you worked up enough that it's not that trivial. Tell me? Maybe I can help?"

Thomas Raith has posed:
Thomas Raith sighs a bit, and is diliberatly not looking at her as he takes a few deep breaths. "I had a dream... I was...hunting." He says with a sigh. "It was in this club I didn't recognize... there was this woman there... Brunette... kept sucking on a lollipop." He shrugs slightly, "She kind of looked like that one chick from Grind house, you remember..." Anyway... we went upstairs and..." He sighs and just puts his head agienst the bag.

Buffy Summers has posed:
Buffy Summers blinks slowly, hand slowly jerking away from his arm. She had thought he was about to tell her something a bit more trivial. But instead he's...Dreaming about other girls? "Thomas...." she says between clenched teeth, her tone suddenly taking on a chillier tone and she's already marching towards the kitchen. Since he woke her up early, may as well pour herself some coffee. Or maybe down a strong glass of wine or...Something.

"So, you're having wet dreams of other girls now? What, you're not satisfied with the Slayer, you still want more?" she practically snaps. "What the hell?!"

Thomas Raith has posed:
Thomas Raith doesn't answer right away, wincing slightly at the woman's words as they pretty much cut along the same lines as his own thoughts had been trailing. He doesn't follow her, instead heading to the bathroom and turning on the shower to high temp, high pressure.

Buffy Summers has posed:
Buffy Summers draws a deep breath and tries to steady herself as she sinks down into the kitchen chair, sipping on some hot chocolate instead of coffee. Mostly because coffee is bound to make her even more high strung than she is now.

She just stares into her cup, not even looking at Thomas as he slips into the shower. Was she overreacting? But..Buffy just sighs deeply, shaking her head, staring out the window.

Thomas Raith has posed:
Thomas Raith comes back after a few minutes in the shower. He's only wearing a towel so his skin is visible, pearled with droplets of water and glowing with heat. He moves to fix his own coffee, still wordless...

Buffy Summers has posed:
Buffy Summers bites her lip as she follows his movements out of the corner of her eyes. The tension in the air is stifling honestly, and it causes her to nearly choke on her hot chocolate. "Okay..This is..I cant stand awkward silence, okay? Soo...You DO understand why I'm kinda disturbed by that right? I mean, who is this girl you're having dreams about even?"

Thomas Raith has posed:
Thomas Raith holds up a singular finger. "Dream, not dreams. One dream. And I don't know... Empty Night I don't even know if I've ever seen her before. Before you they mostly run together." He still doesn't turn around. Doesn't face her.

Buffy Summers has posed:
Buffy Summers arches a brow at that. "Dream..One single dream, really? But..Something must have triggered it. I mean, I know I have prophetic dreams, often against my wishes, often of people I've never met, so..Either this is a prophetic dream of sorts, or someone you've met before or..."

She peers intently at him. "You..You're serious, aren't you, about not having met this girl before. I mean, this isn't some midlife crisis, you know, you're...Tired of me, or something..Right?"

Thomas Raith has posed:
Thomas Raith snaps around to face her her with shocked hurt on his face. "Tired of you?" He walks over and grabs her shoulders and kisses her hard, dumping about three times the amount of Hunger into it that he normally puts into a kiss. "Tired of you? Buffy I'm over there beating myself up because I was unfaithful to you in as /dream/ and you think I might be tired of you? Empty Night woman you can be so infuriating sometimes.

Buffy Summers has posed:
Buffy Summers blinks slowly, totally caught off-guard (though that's nothing new) as he suddenly grabs her and kisses her. She shivers a bit at the contact, a bit more intense and sudden than she was expecting, but its enough to get her to smile faintly, wrapping her arms loosely around his neck when the kiss finally breaks, visibily relaxed. "Wow, guess that answers that question..But..Still curous who she is..Wonder if Nick can find out, he's a dream right?"

Thomas Raith has posed:
Thomas Raith sighs a bit, resting his forehead agienst her's and sighing. "I love you." He says it softly, gently. The words carring the weight of the impossibility of their relationship. "And besides, if I was going to step out on you, I'd go for someone better, like Wonder Woman, or Joyce, or Batgirl." He says playfully teasing

Buffy Summers has posed:
Buffy Summers draws a deep breath, tickling the back of his neck with her fingers as she ponders his words. "I know..I guess..You've really changed since when we first met more than two years ago, haven't you?" she smirks, "But..I'm sorry if I doubted you, even just a little, and besides, I might not be as strong as Wonder Woman, but I'm definitely prettier." she winks playfully, nuzzling against his neck. "But, thanks for being honest with me too.."

She stops and frowns, "Oh and by the way? My mom is *totally* off limits. That's just...Ew!"

Thomas Raith has posed:
Thomas Raith grins wickedly, leaning down and brushing his lips agienst her's with a smile. "I wouldn't eww too hard you know, they say if you want to see the future of the daughter, just look to the mother... And I am certainly not scared off by what I see." He says playfully.

Buffy Summers has posed:
Buffy Summers smirks, "Did you know that once, due to a spell that some crazy ex friend of Giles put my mom and him under, they both ended up...Sleeping together? Do you know how disturbing that is? My mom...And my watcher, Giles! Please dont put even more disturbing images into her mind."

At least Buffy is smiling now, not nearly as tense as she was a moment earlier. "But she's a good mom..You know, as long as you dont start having wet dreams about her too." she playfully tickles him under the armpits as she says that.

Thomas Raith has posed:
Thomas Raith grins a bit, "No promises." He says teasing back, "But I promise not to call her name in an intimate moment, okay?" he asks in a teasing voice, lifting her up off her feet to kiss her. He loves just showing off that strength. He then glances down at his towel and smirks, "One of us might be over dressed for this party.."
