Private to Steph:

You wanna give me the 411 on Babs, BG? 'Cause I thought you were the one with the bat suit.

[Barbara's folder is in her lap; a little crinkled, and hastily smoothed over from the half a dozen reading's she's managed so far. But she looks determined right now.]

Private to Buffy:


[Faith's just sort of... staring at her lap, here; fidgeting a little; there's hand scrawled notes all over the place, quizzes she made up for herself - mostly hidden, but peeking out between papers. There's a look of almost panic on her face - and she can't quite get out the request for help.

Just... give her a moment, would ya?]


Private to Barbara:

[The folder's stashed behind her somewhere - no clue as to how much or little attention she's been paying; there's a casual look to her, as if she's not going crazy.]

You up for drinks, Babs?

[She's phrasing this like a request; but she will be down there knocking your door open in no time if you say no.]


Public:

[The file's back in her lap again; she's only spent the last ten minutes making sure it's presentable - fidgeting and going back and forth. She's used to being the impulsive sort - but now she's in charge of someone, and that's... that's scary.

Still, she puts on a smile, and tries to laugh.]

Guess the Admiral got tired of my free ride, huh?

[She's noticed. Buffy blinks.]

Did you not mean to send this, or?

[Oh. ....Ohhhhh.

Buffy sighs a little.

This is about having an inmate, huh. [Buffy sits up a little straighter.] I wish I had an easy answer for you.

Hey.

You're not like that anymore. You're completely capable of doing this.

[Slight frown.]

Faith. Why do you think you can't do it?

slayage: (I hope it's gonna make you notice.)
[Strong, confident, and sure:] Faith, you can do this. You've led before. You can lead.

You also have a lot of good lessons you can teach an inmate, okay? You've been there, you know.

slayage: (I'll just let it burn.)
[Ouch, she feels that pain. Those were her girls too. But she doesn't blame Faith for that. She could have easily walked into that trap as well.

Buffy sighs, rubs her face, and collects herself.

Look, Faith, I'm not a born leader. You know exactly just how good I can be as a leader. [Aka: NOT all that great.] I barely know any better than you do, okay? We just.. Do our best, and hope it works out.

[Buffy doesn't know her inmate is batgirl. She blinks.] Gotham? She's from Gotham?

Really? But Steph's-

[Pause. Sigh.] Another alternate dimension? Can I just take this opportunity right now to say how glad I am that we're from the same world? Cause..

[She hears it. And yeah, she and Faith's relationship is more than just a little rough around the edges, but..]

I'm sure. [Teeeeeny smile.] Very sure. [Aaaand it's her turn to joke:] I'd want you to remember all the times I kicked your ass. [Big smile. No, she's not talking about the stabbing incident. She's trying to be teasing, to joke, not to bring on heavy things. Go with it, Faith.]

slayage: (Gee can you vague that up for me?)
I've still got it. I've got all of it. [She assures with a smirk.] Plus a whole lot more.

[A little more seriously, more genuine:] I'd be okay, good even, if you ever wanted to spar. I know we've never actually sparred, just beat each other up a lot, but. Hey, offer's there.

Good. [She smiles a little.

Then moves on to the more serious topic.
] Do you still need to- About alternate batgirl.

I see.

I guess the first step is earning trust? Maybe she'll talk more.
