It’s a nightmare. A living, breathing, wide-awake nightmare and Faith’s promising herself that she’ll kick Damon’s ass when this is all over. If it’s ever over.
Just how many of these things are there, anyway? They’ve managed to kill or, at least, evaporate at least a dozen of them. Dodged their stacked platform heels, tried not to be distracted by their 90s take on go-go dancing. Like everything that happens in Lebanon, this is just… bizarre.
Faith manages to wrench the head off of her latest attacker, watch it go flying and bleed into smoke, only to be startled when her back hits something that feels solid and human.
She doesn’t spin around, just needs a glance over her shoulder to realize it’s Damon and keeps her back against his for protection, “How many demon hipster chicks did you jilt, anyway? There’s gotta be a hundred left. Sox are whuppin’ the Royals asses tonight, yo, and I’m not missing it on account of you’re a big ho. Talk to em, man! You look like Joan Jett, they’ll listen to you. ”
“Me? Moi?” It’s terrible, a terrible accusation. Awful. And mean, but he’s come to expect that from slayers, all of whom are very mean. And really, it’s okay to be mean if you’re also funny, but Faith. Is. N’t. “First of all, bold to assume I remember much of the nineties. I spent most of it in London munching on ecstasy like it was candy. But, and I think this is much, much more important: If anyone around here is collecting demon ex-girlfriends —”
Also, was that a compliment about his hair? Can never tell with Faith. Safer to assume she’s being mean again.
“And no, I don’t mean Ric, because all his exes are dead, which is exactly how I like it. Your big boo, though? All his girlfriends have had horns and pointy tails, ridiculous shoes and great asses.”
Seems like a good time to pinch hers, to make a point. And then it’s time to do some more murdering. These are the exact kind of people Alaric lets him murder. Pity they’re full of demon blood and therefore verbatim. Or verboten. Whichever one says he’s not allowed because Ric likes to pre-kill his buzz.
