[Once Dean and Cordelia are gone, and Buffy and Peter have gotten some sleep the three of them gear up and head out to the local cemetery. Not that there are many baby vamps coming up these days, but for some reason they still want to live there. Buffy doesn't understand it.

Spike probably would try and explain it to her, but she doesn't think she would get it then either.

All the same, they walk into a clear part of the cemetery before she glances back over her shoulder.]


Okay. Vampire 101. They're undead and they don't have a soul so they're pretty much gonna do whatever they can to eat you.

[Sylar hums in response, throwing up a hand and, as probably expected by everyone but the vampire, the guy goes flying backwards into a tree. he raises his fingers, dragging him up it so he's not prone, and then curls his fingers inward, into a loose fist, holding him there]

[Peter, meanwhile, glances between Buffy, Sylar, the vampire and back again, feeling more than a little out of his element, at the moment]

Yeah. [he sees that. he's still working on believing it] I get what you mean about them being kind of ... [evil. considering this one tried to jump them for no apparent reason]

[Peter's still not sure he's sold on the killing part, but -- and then -- man, this is a headache of moral choices] And you do this every night?

[personal profile] hadtobeahero 2014-05-18 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I guess not.

[and after a moment, Sylar speaks up] They're not like me, Peter. They're not redeemable. She wasn't kidding when she said they don't really do morality.

[Peter glances at Sylar, who just shrugs, then takes a deep breath and reaches for the stake. if he's going to stick around and help, he should probably man up. even if he's still not sure how he feels about any of this]

I've got it.
hadtobeahero: (know that parting makes me nervous)

[ ... that is not terribly reassuring, Buffy] Right.

[a moment of hesitation follows, and then he moves to stand in front of the vampire, glancing back at Sylar, to make sure he won't be going anywhere, unexpectedly. Sylar nods, Peter turns back to the vampire and after another moment of pause, he goes to drive the stake into the guy's chest. surprisingly? he doesn't miss. probably because he's a paramedic, and he knows all too well where the human heart is]

[a little absently, if only because WHAT THE HELL THAT GUY DEFINITELY JUST TURNED TO DUST] I'm kind of a paramedic, so ...

[personal profile] hadtobeahero 2014-06-09 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, just -- kinda wasn't expecting that. [he gestures to the little pile of ash, then moves back to her, handing off the stake as if he just realized it was some sort of evil magical artifact]

[ ... what is your life even, Buffy?]

[and Sylar looks amused by Peter's reactions, thus far] Welcome to Cleveland. [and what he's been doing for the last however long it's been, now]

[personal profile] hadtobeahero 2014-06-18 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
[Sylar gestures to Buffy] Or that.

Should I ask how many there are?

[Peter takes a moment to consider that] I'm guessing it's like a triage thing? [they go and hang out at the most overrun places]
hadtobeahero: (Default)

[personal profile] hadtobeahero 2014-06-29 05:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[he nods] Okay, yeah, that makes sense. [even if very little else about this does]

[personal profile] hadtobeahero 2014-07-01 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
[he'll get used to it -- and probably sooner rather than later. he took to the idea of super powers quickly enough, after all]

[but at any rate, he's silent for a moment following that, and then]
So, do we just hang out here for awhile and stop anything that comes along? Or ... ?

[Peter nods a little, glancing to Sylar, who shrugs and then tilts his head, indicating they walk, as Buffy suggested. he'll get used to things faster if he sees more, and like Buffy said, there's probably still vampires that need dusting] Come on.
