[Wesley Wyndam-Pryce]

I've been meaning to tell you something, but it seems at every turn it's just bad timing.

I don't need our standard training, anymore. If I'm going to learn anything, I want to just focus on defense against magic, like what we started with before you were turned into a cat.

[Stephanie Brown]

So... I hope you aren't angry.

[/Stephanie Brown]

[Kara]

I think it's time that we talked.

[ And, later... ]

[Damon Salvatore]

[ Did someone order a break-in? No? Well, she'll have to stay anyway until you say so.

But really, this started as her trying to write something, only to realize he would just ignore it and her, so instead she'll be waiting in a nice chair in his room, reading by a single lamp while a wrapped Christmas present sits in her lap. She's even decked out with a Christmas sweater for kicks.

They will talk whether he likes it or not. ]

[ Can you HEAR her eye-rolling? ]

Chivalry is romantic in theory, but...

Dangerous for him, despite how badass he thinks he may be. A good sparring partner kinda has to punch to hit, but I think he's at least come that far. Maybe.

Anyway. Soak up all the other chivalrous stuff. Having a chair pulled out for you is nice, I bet.

[ Well he'd probably break his hand trying to punch Lana now, anyway.

She's a sucker for romantic notions at heart, too... As much as she loves proving her independence. ]

I can't complain about that. I wonder if he writes poetry at all...

[Has to laugh at that, can't... help... it...]

You can always ask him.

No, then it would seem like I was putting pressure on him. Poetry should be a free notion.

[She'd say something, but she doesn't want to get all... personal and all up in this business. Let's not make this awkward, Steph.]

Yeah, guess so.

Maybe we'll find out on Valentine's Day.

I'm sure it'll be nice, if not awesome.

[ Instant guilt. Stephanie, why must you be insistent on being single. Lana would feel like a burden was gone if she could just hook you up with a nice guy... ]

I'm sorry, we can talk about something else.

[ALARM. Steph's not always the best at playing it cool.]

What? No, it's fine. I'm not a fan of Valentine's day, that's all. I mean, the best I ever had was when I helped a witch boy find a partner for his cat. It's not a big deal! I'm an adult, I eat heart shaped candy whenever I want.

[ Stephanie, you are rambling. Be more obvious... ]

I'm not exactly a fan of the commercial aspect of any of the holidays, really, and Valentine's Day can be one of the worst. At least that isn't such a big deal here. We just have to worry about what the castle might have in store for us...

Yeah... I don't even want to imagine. I'm still recovering from kissing people.

We had that problem last Valentine's Day, too. Like Christmas wasn't enough.

I'm starting to just not like the anything from Halloween into, I don't know, July. I'd like it to be July.

We should do something for the 4th.

[ Like...sad planning that far ahead, but do either of them expect to go home anytime soon? ]

BBQ and sparklers?

[ BRB checking a calendar... Then she sounds stupidly excited. ]

Guess what, the fourth falls on a Thursday. That means we can use the beach if we want.

Celebrating America in style. I'm down.

Swimsuit shopping?

Swimsuit shopping. [Wah, she'd want to bring Lucrezia, but she'll either not be here or... well. Awkward.] We'll be hot.

That goes without saying.

[ No what they really need is a redhead to complete the trinity of hot. What do? Maybe one will show up by then... ~~Even if Lana's supposed to be the redhead.~~ ]

How early is too early, you think?

[Lana being all friendly... and wanting to do girl things with her... HMM.]

Just as long as there isn't snow. [Give her time to shave :( ]

[ Don't you know waxing is where it's at, young lady?

And okay, Lana may be forcing it a little bit because of guilt, but she is also really feeling the lack of girl friends lately. Fred's busy with her own relationship, after all. ]

So March, then.

March. You better not forget.

[Carefully not mentioning who to invite because loooots of people will be gone by then.]

[ Yeah and she feels guilty hoping Stephanie will still be around, so she will just loosely mark this on her calendar for now. ]

I'm pretty good at remembering things lately. You've got nothing to worry about.
