I need a break before I do something I regret - can you take over the sleep potion run this evening if anyone needs anything? The stuff's in the kitchen, with directions on the packet, and it's not so different from the willowbark mixture.

Ta,

I'm shutting meself away for the night before I do someone some damage. If you two could start the Grand Plans and let me know what I need to do tomorrow? I can talk to Manuel about music if Doug talks to the Fish People for the other half. ;)

To: [big brother]
From: [little sister]



I'm fine, or I will be. Just can't take any more people getting in my face, whether it be dead bitch-goddesses from the future, or up themselves playboys trying to tell me I ain't got no morals. So I'm taking the night off, locking meself away to get it out of my system. Strange is coming by tomorrow afternoon, so don't worry on that account, all right. The Orb's locked in my desk and will stay that way - I gave the key to Paige to look after if you want to check.

Will talk to the other fishy people for you. Anything I can do to help with the wanting to do damage stuff?

Ta. I'll talk to you and Alison tomorrow.

And I'm fine, just angry. And with my powers it's always a good idea to not be around anyone when I am, so best you don't come clucking 'round, Mr Mother Hen. I'd hate have to explain to Frenchie how I sent her boyfriend to the World Without Shrimp by mistake.

(Blame Beth for the Buffy jokes. Wench made me watch the whole series).

Okay. Have sent email to PCIF about the gig.

I can understand needing some space to recenter yourself. I need a bit of that after the big cicada thing, myself. Wish it could be different, but I don't fancy risking a fireball in the face.

(knew there was a reason I liked Beth. She's got good taste. :) And I can't exactly see you as Willow or Tara. There's a certain rakish similarity to Giles' young Ripper persona, I suppose...)

Aye, I can take care of that. Hope you get settled.

Yes.

~Woe! I can do some native speak now Doug but it hurts my head! Translate the rest of this for me for Amanda, please? I would be ever so grateful? And is it me or can Askani be awful formal? Or I just haven't hit the less formal nuances yet?~

~Anyway. Yes. Can organize stuff, gladly. Music shared for each and I think it'd do Manuel good. Chance to show off. And I want to dance. If you need more (or anything) from me, let me know sister.~

Yeah, you take as long as you need - we could all do with some time locked away to clear the headspace sometimes. Let me know if you want company.

Glad you understand - I just couldn't handle another minute of people wanting me to save the fucking world. Or telling me I don't care about it enough. And I've been doing so much magic lately I'm on a bit of a hair-trigger, and I didn't want to risk hurting someone by accident until I got myself calmed down.

Things are a bit better this morning. And Strange is coming by in the afternoon.

I'll leave the organising in your capable, if somewhat hard to understand until you get your English back, hands. *grins* And yes, it would do Manny good, and he is good, I've heard him before. Between him and the People Covered in Fish (and one day someone has to tell me the story behind that), we should be covered music-wise.

Um, not sure what else we'll need. Basically, if you need stuff doing, tell me what it is and I'll help. Tho' possibly not stuff so much with people - I'm not exactly little miss sunshine right now. I could see if Paige and Jane are up for that side of it, tho' - they're good that way.

Ripper, eh? *grins* Better him than the other two, tho' watching season six with Willow was a bit too close to home. Giles should let Ripper out to play more, I reckon.

Well, it's either Ripper or Ethan, and I can't see you worshipping chaos and being quite so evil as Ethan. And I honestly hadn't thought about it, but yeah, I can see how S6 Willow would hurt. If it helps, I think you did a lot better than she did(what with you not trying to end the world), and figured things out a hell of a lot sooner. So go you. :)

You know the weirdest part of that season? That Rack bloke. I think one of the writers on that show knows someone in the business, 'cause that was one creepy coincidence. And some of the spells are the same, silly as it sounds...

Not that Rack was his actual name, the one who brought me up, I mean. We don't use our real names, and I always thought he picked that one when he was a young bloke 'cause it sounded all dark and tough and shite. Pillock.
