paradisa | 61; action/dictated

[Maybe it's all the weird shit that keeps happening that drives Spike to do something completely normal, because today he's outside walking a dog. (The one he couldn't get rid of even after he disappeared for a few days.) Either that, or the dog wouldn't leave him alone until he got out of his room.

Judging from his face, he isn't enjoying it as much as Ein is. Just keeps his eyes forward and walks like a zombie in a puffy coat through town.]

[Later -- Spike can be found in the castle lobby, trying to sleep on a couch while a dog is nearby, busy working to get his journal open. It's only when he starts barking at it that Spike looks over to see what he's doing.]

Let me know if you get to the bottom of it. [When Ein lifts his head up in response, he smiles slightly. Sometimes it's almost like he understands.] Or use it as a chew toy. You'll get better use out of that thing than I do.

[That thought amuses him as he closes his eyes and rolls back over to nap, completely missing the soft whine coming from his roommate. The exciting life of a cowboy.]

ooc: open to action anywhere or the journal!

I'm just full of surprises.

And you're teaching it to eat the journal.

More like encouraging it.

When it eventually chokes and dies then...

I didn't tell him to swallow it whole.

[Ein actually hasn't chewed on it at all, he's only sitting next to the open journal, listening to them.]

How responsible of you.

That's what I was going for.

You should get some kind of award.

You don't think that's too much?

Oh no, not at all.

Now streamers. Those would be too much.

I wouldn't want to make anyone jealous.

[Ein seems to sense the tension, because a small whine follows that comment. Maybe he should have waited until Spike was asleep to open the journal.]

Oh look at that, you gre a sense of decency, even the dog noticed.

[Maybe it'd be better to train him to pee on it.]

Funny what things they'll pick up on.

[Spike no that would be gross]

I hear they can pick up idiocy, too. So you're golden.

[It'd save him a lot of breath.]

That must be why he went for the journal.

Aww look at you trying to be sassy. So adorable.

Sassy.

[He's about had it with this. There are no words for how much he dislikes you, Crowley.]

Yes.

Sassy.

Sassy like a hooker in a nineties romcom.

You spend all day coming up with those, don't you?

[Whatever the hell a nineties romcom is.]

Yes, Spike. I spend all my time trying to find ways to put you down. I literally have nothing better to do with my life.

I had no idea I was so important to you.

Oh, you're the most precious of things to me, Spiegel.

I guess that happens after you lose so many people.

[And then, just like that, his tone turns cold] I wouldn't go there, if I were you.

Has to be easier than getting them back and finding out they don't give a shit.

[He's going there.]
