[ With a surprising amount of overall support from the team, Elena gets the opportunity to return to the Waldorf without having to sneak around her teammates, to continue her 'doppel-lessons' from Kyp.

Of course, she doesn't get to go alone, and Spike has volunteered to play guard dog. The hotel is relatively quiet as they arrive this fine evening. ]

It's fine, I can pick up some things. Just figured it'd already be in your bag of tricks.

[bigbad]

Well, it's not. More'n capable of kicking ass with my fists alone. [He tilts up his chin, combative.] Didn't need it against you, did I?

[notaroundme]

Spike.

[She turns to look at him, frowning.]

Please be nice? For me?

[Diplomacy 27.]

[imposturing]

You brought him along to be your intimidating bodyguard and now you're asking him to be nice?

[notaroundme]

You could both stand to at least be civil.

[Frowny face you guys.]

The bickering is getting old.

[bigbad]

[Opposed diplomacy check 11, so he can see her point. He grumbles and settles back again, though all the diplomacy in the world can't stop him from glaring.]

I haven't ripped his lungs out. I thought that was nice.

[imposturing]

Charming friends, you have.

[notaroundme]

Well, we didn't exactly get off on the best foot the first day we met.

[And some people hold grudges. Elena still probably wouldn't be here if it wasn't her only shot.]

Are we calling it a night, then? So you can restock?

[imposturing]

Unless you have any other pressing questions for me.

[notaroundme]

[She shakes her head.]

Not beyond when you want me to come back.

[imposturing]

Give me a couple nights. I've got other business of my own to deal with too, you know.

[notaroundme]

[Elena glances at Spike.]

Not a problem. We have things we need to do too.
