In A.D. 2011, war was beginning.

[pacifisted.livejournal.com]

WHO: 300,000 angry nerds and the Imports who fight them. Tag yourselves in, please!
WHERE: All around, but mostly near the Porter tower
WHEN: 7:30A May 18 - 3:13P May 20, 2011
WARNINGS: There is no fourth wall. Only Zuul. And violence. And probably bad language. And other things as well. JUST ASSUME THAT THIS LOG IS NOT FOR LIL'UNS.
SUMMARY: The Crabhammers declare war on the Porter and, to a lesser extent, the Imports. The battle lasts three days, is horrible in just about every way you can think of, and this is how it goes down.
FORMAT: However people wanna do it!

"There's no environment. Use your imagination. There's no fourth wall, whether it's the first time you've told this story about her life, or the sixth time."

Everything you need to know is here.

"Buffy. I told you to knock out this miss stuff." Being asked for her number by vampires, that was new. Oh wait, no it wasn't. In fact, it was kind of a recurring theme. Somehow, she didn't really think Aaron was interested in her that way though. "Sure, that would be..good." She's brushing some of her hair behind her ear, a little nervous.

[grey1911.livejournal.com]

No 'Miss'. Well, there went his preferred way of addressing women politely, but she wouldn't be the first. He'd prefer an equitable trade of information, but she is a vampire hunter, and so he'll only risk revealing information about himself to start. If another vampire invasion ever occurred, she could be useful and he never likes to be short an ally in problems that usually concern the Major.

"Of course, I will be glad to provide what information I can, within reason, about other races represented around the city. That is, if I can be certain that you won't use it in an effort to kill us all. I don't know about where you're from, but acts of genocide, even against vampires, are not tolerated in the city." There is not an ounce of humor in his voice, in fact Aaron sounds as deadly serious as he looks.

Which is super serious, she gets it. It only makes her more nervous and she's starting to feel like she's in the principal's office. Info would be nice, though it comes with a strict no-kill policy. What's a vampire slayer to do if she can't slay vampires? But she finds herself nodding, though still with the worried face. "If they're all as nice as you, that shouldn't be any trouble." Maybe the vampires in the city all had souls. Or.. chips, like Spike. Or maybe vampires from other dimensions were just nice and fluffy. She was okay with being delusional for now. Or forever.

"Good." He turns, heading for the station again. "I appreciate your understanding, Buffy."

[slayerpreferred.livejournal.com]

"Sure thing, Aaron," she says, testing out his name. "I'm nothing if not a reasonable slayer."

[grey1911.livejournal.com]

"That's good to hear." Though, how much he actually believes her remains to be seen. Once in the station, he makes his phone call and it's a rather short one at that. A few minutes later he returns, hands in his pockets. "I have to report to the main station in the next hour for a press conference." Oh joy, he sounds excited about that. "You're welcome to help around here, if you wish, but I have to head out now, if I want to make it through the mob that's surrounding the station."

[slayerpreferred.livejournal.com]

"Do you need help or should I take my helpfulness elsewhere?" she immediately offers, blinking a little owlishly.

[grey1911.livejournal.com]

He blinks behind his glasses, then smiles smally. She was strange for a self-proclaimed vampire hunter, offering to help him reach his destination.

"I appreciate the offer, but it might be best if you help out here. The media will have enough to chew on without bringing along another import to get into headquarters. I am sorry about all this, but I hope you understand."

[slayerpreferred.livejournal.com]

"It's no big, Officer Vampire. I can take care of myself." She gives a small smile of her own in return, almost sad at parting ways. Or at least sad that ended so anticlimactically. Something like that anyway. "And the thanks was for not arresting me." She waves.

Calling Aaron "Officer Vampire" is about as bad as calling Buffy "Miss". He doesn't look too pleased behind his shades and sighs, a little frustrated.

"I would believe you can, and it's of no concern, Miss Summers. I hope you stay safe while all of this is going on." He gives a nod as he heads out on foot toward headquarters. Too many traffic disruptions have made it easier to go on foot. At least he has a chance of sneaking by some of the crowds. Cop cars would just attract too much attention.
