[Accidental Visual]/[Location | The Last Mistake] Thunderhead

Casey's in a foul mood. He's been that way for the better part of a week. Not only is he still reeling from what was found in the tunnels but he's still adjusting to having had to move back to the Central dorms and rehatch all of his stuff since the Royal Chambers and Morgana up and disappeared. He hasn't had an opportunity to check on Gwen since she decided to move in with Buffy Summers. He still feels bad about deciding to take his chances in the tunnels and leaving her behind, even though she'd said she'd understood.

He knows he should get back to work, help Lorne out, but he's been avoiding the green-guy's calls. Drinking too much. Sitting in his dorm room. His mood getting blacker the more that he shuts himself away.

Finally he's storms out, slams his door and stomps down towards Nazca's tavern. It's close. It will do. He scowls at the Extras he passes on the street.

Once he finally reaches the Last Mistake, he enters, pushing the door open a little too forcefully.

"Gimme some of that ale you got. I don't care if it's warm."

[ and this is just faith, grunting thoughtfully. it might be her best approximation of teasing.

...or sympathy, those two look eerily alike on her. ]

Huh.

[As much as he loves the use of a well timed grunt...]

You got more syllables coming or is that it?

[ aw casey she looooooooooooooooooves you. ]

You looking for more, Killer?

[Back at ya!]

Maybe. Not really in a chatty mood, though, sweetness.

[His tone suggests that there are other things he could be in the mood for.]

Not really big on talking, anyway. I'm more of a doer.

[ ...faith is that an invitation to fight or fuck HAVE CLEARER DEMARCATIONS BETWEEN THE TWO. ]

Now you're speaking my language. [There's a smile in the tone of his voice.] You still got it?

Depends what it you think I got.

[ ...faith you KNOW what he means. ]

You got plenty I want. That good enough for you? If you're interested, this is where I'll be.

[Coordinates are put into the Taxon map.]

I'll hatch the Jack.

Not the worst offer I ever got. I get time, I'll head over.

[ which is faith speak for: i'm already heading for the door. ]

Whatever you want, princess, I got somewhere to be at nine.

[Always good not to seem too eager.]

He finishes his ale and then heads back to his apartment. Hatches some Jack Daniels and then proceeds to start strip cleaning a few weapons he's started stockpiling.

"Never was big into guns. Whatever, I can use 'em, but I like to get up close and personal."

This isn't the kind of deal where you knock on doors, and Faith is pretty sure Casey might actually be disappointed if she knocked and asked to be let in, like they're normal people.

"Hey, Killer."

Casey swivels around to face her, his sig sauer dismantled in front of him.

"This place could improve on its security."

He smirks, still in a relaxed stance. He leans back in his chair.

"Ain't that calling the kettle black. It's not like you're Miss Straight and Narrow."

He casually leans forward and starts pouring her a drink.

"Just a hint. I wanna get in some place, there's not usually a lot that keeps me out." Less because of any sort of stealth and more because breaking windows and busting heads is a long-respected Lehane standby, but she didn't say how.

The casual pose makes her grin a little, roll her shoulders as the muscles tense up, ready for a fight.

"You miss the up close and personal part? Not talking about hugs and honest conversation there, babe. The piece I took off you's more my speed than that crap." She nods at the gun, watching him out of the corner of her eye when she admits to stealing the knife. "That drink for me?"

Is that a challenge? He kinda likes the idea of setting up a trap, just to see if he could ambush and trap her.

"Yeah, the drink's for you if you want it." He reaches out and tosses back his own. "And no, I didn't miss that part. I just like to do things in my own time."

He's got a better idea of how strong she is, but that doesn't mean he isn't game to try besting her. Far from it. Timing is everything.

As long as he doesn't try and chain her up, sure as hell it's a challenge. She likes Casey, but people trying to hold her in place messes with Faith in places that don't have a lot to do with thought, and everything to do with lashing out like a trapped animal. It's a line nobody knows they've crossed until she stabs them with a fork.

"Looks good to me." She tosses her glass back like a shot, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand after. "I mention I'm not big on patience, either?"

Human Casey may be, boring or safe he isn't. But boring and safe aren't her favorite things in the world, anyway.

He pours them both a top up. Then captures a wrist and pulls her closer, encouraging her to straddle his lap.

"Didn't think so. But you're missing out. A slow dance can be fun."

He places a casual hand on her ass, and reaches for his glass again, also knocking it back like it's a shot.

Faith arches an eyebrow at the hand around her wrist-- she could break it, if she wanted, snap each finger, make sure he'd never use it again; but this is her call, so she shakes off the instinctive recoil-- and puts a knee on either side of Casey's thighs, holding their lower bodies just a breath apart; half teasing, half showing off.

"Yeah, whatever gets you off, babe. I like my way. Wham, bam, thank you ma'am. All that foreplay shit is a waste of time." She tosses back her second glass, not bothering to wipe the excess off her lips this time. "You planning on doing something here, or just feel me up like Bobby Ridgeway in the back of his mom's Volvo all night?"

"That's just because you aren't doing it right."

He actually knows what he's talking about here, but Faith's young. She hasn't lived as long as he has. And he's in no rush to emphasize that fact.

Damn it, he likes the way she feels, pressed against him. Even if she's still holding back.

He leans forward to kiss her. To taste the whiskey on her lips. He isn't gentle about it. He figures that if she's a fan of vampire sexing, she's not one for being treated like a delicate flower. If it feels damned fine to do it, to kiss her, he isn't about to admit it.

"The feeling up as a purpose, smart ass. Where the hell is it? My knife."

"Oh, Killer, you got no idea."

Faith's secure that she's the shit in bed, that there's nothing anybody can teach her. She's wrong-- and she's only great if you like it hard, fast, and rough, with a trend towards a little bloody-- but good job trying to convince her of that one, world. She never got hugged enough as a child, mommy didn't tuck her in at night, blah blah all that "trouble with intimacy" crap the shrinks in jail liked to talk about.

...He's a good kisser. Faith was pretty sure he would be, but it's nice to be right. None of that unsure, hesitant crap, just pushing the right buttons like he knows she'll be into it.

"You're feeling up the wrong place, babe. Not that kind of girl on the first date." Really, Faith, classy.

"Might just have to expand my search." He murmurs, letting his hands grow bolder in exploring her backside, hips and thighs.

When that doesn't yield his prize, he makes a half growl of annoyance.

"Did you even bring it? "

He pulls back, staring at her with an expression which is both impatient and lustful. Maybe his own goals for the evening are getting a little blurred.

"I brought it." Faith's grin is smug, and the knife is heavy against her ankle, held in by boot leather and hard to get to thanks to the angle of her body. "Not my fault you got hung up on my ass and didn't look for it hard enough."

Casey's hotter when he's working towards pissed, his jaw going tighter. Save that lovey-dovey crap for B, Faith likes it better when it's like this.

"Well, it's a pretty fine ass."

He admits, unapologetically.

"Is that an invitation to be more thorough, huh?"

He brings a hand up to caress her throat. Leans down to kiss the area he's touching. It's more gentle than you'd expect, but always with an undercurrent that things could turn on a dime.

Then he's shifting, lifting her up easily in his arms. He's strong and makes short work of carrying her towards his bed. He's well aware of how quickly she can turn the tables if she doesn't like what he's doing.

"So, what is it about vampires that gets your blood pumping?"

"Yours ain't too bad either."

She stretches a little, pushing down against his lap, then back up again. "Whatever you feel like, babe."

The hand on her throat makes her tighten up, nerves jangling; it's a thing with Slayers, or maybe just with her. Hell of a turn on, but it makes her skin crawl at the same time.

The distance is short enough Faith lets Casey pick her up and move her; the damsel crap would be one thing, but this is okay.

"Everybody's got their kinks, Killer." She shrugs, looks over at him for a second; weighing answering honestly against giving him a flippant line. "And not like vamps are what do it, but close enough." He should get that one, easy. Not vampires-- although that's close enough to a lie for government work; it's also none of Casey's goddamn business-- but being close to something that's supposed to kill you, taking it in and making it part of what you are.

"Anyway, the sex is really freaking good." And a return to form.

"You got that right." Casey agrees, letting his gaze rake appreciatively down her body now that he has her on the bed. Everybody has their kinks. Flirting with death, inviting it in. He can understand that. How alive it can make you feel.

He's pat her down pretty well and enjoyed himself while doing it. That leaves the only other logical place. He tries to recall which hand she favors and goes for the corresponding pant leg, lifting it up as if to start taking her boots off for her. He does it with a smirk and lets it be part of the seduction game they're playing with each other.

"Kinda assumed the sex'd be pretty off the charts."

"You gonna follow that one up, or is getting all shrink on girls part of your kink?" Faith stretches obligingly while Casey looks his fill, arching her back and lifting her hips slightly.

He's going for the knife and Faith considers for a second using that foot to clip him in the jaw, her calf muscle tensing; then she relaxes into the hold, stretching our her arms and putting them behind her head.

"Really not gonna complain. It's nice, not having to worry I'm gonna break someone if I get too into it."
