Come poke.

Maria wanders over and leans into the booth to peer over her shoulder.

[faithful-slayer.livejournal.com]

"Hey, Maria."

Faith looks up from the list, smiling at her.

"Christmas list. What's up?"

[herbal-waitress.livejournal.com]

"Hey." She smiles back and settles into the booth, putting Alex in her lap. "Nothing much new - you?"

[faithful-slayer.livejournal.com]

"About the same. Busy with Security stuff, though."

[herbal-waitress.livejournal.com]

"Yeah? What's been going on?"

[faithful-slayer.livejournal.com]

"The same guy that sent you that note. He's been busy."

[herbal-waitress.livejournal.com]

"...oh, lovely. Any idea who he is yet?"

[faithful-slayer.livejournal.com]

"Oh, yeah. Meg's met him. Fought him at swordpoint, even."

[herbal-waitress.livejournal.com]

Maria blinks. "Where's he hiding?"

[faithful-slayer.livejournal.com]

Faith makes a face.

"I have no idea."

[herbal-waitress.livejournal.com]

"We need, like. Surveillance cameras in here, or something."

[faithful-slayer.livejournal.com]

"People would throw a fit."

[herbal-waitress.livejournal.com]

"If it was in the main bar?"

Roger, also with coffee, leaning against the side of the booth.

"Joy to the world...." he sings, quietly and not a little sarcastically, as he tries to read the list.

[faithful-slayer.livejournal.com]

Faith holds it up for him.

Mark - New camera - digital - stills and video?

Angel - dress. Maybe shoes. Naughty underthings?

His name is hidden under her hand.

"Joy to the economy, maybe."

[fenderfrontman.livejournal.com]

Roger snorts. "It all ends up the same." He studies the list, taking a sip of his coffee: "Digital? Shit, he'll be your willing slave for the next eight years if you get him that. And give Angel the dress and shoes and lingerie. 'Tis the season."

[faithful-slayer.livejournal.com]

Faith grins. "Glad to know you approve. Wait'll you see what I have planned for you."

[fenderfrontman.livejournal.com]

"No lingerie," he says instantly. "You give me lingerie, and it's all going straight to Mimi."

...Not a bad idea, come to it. He still hasn't gotten anything for her.

[faithful-slayer.livejournal.com]

Faith laughs.

"Check. No lingerie for the guitarist."

[fenderfrontman.livejournal.com]

"So what've you been up to, besides giving into the crass commercialism of the season?"

Another sip of coffee.

[faithful-slayer.livejournal.com]

"Security stuff. I'm pretty busy with that. The, uh, Phantom you temporarily got turned into is back."

[fenderfrontman.livejournal.com]

Roger stares.

"You're joking, right?"

[faithful-slayer.livejournal.com]

"Unfortunately? No."

[fenderfrontman.livejournal.com]

"Motherfucker."

It's quiet, but no less vehement. Roger's scowling.

"Notes, right? He's been sending notes."

[faithful-slayer.livejournal.com]

"Notes and roses, yeah."

Faith sighs.

"We know his name and what he looks like now, though - a friend of mine fought him at swordpoint."
