[ So Julian's been gone somewhere close to a week. He finds that out from a newspaper stand. For him it's been a hell of a lot longer than a week, and his head is spinning now. Memories he hadn't known were there are rising to the surface, fitting back into place. Friends, enemies, people from other worlds. Events he'd thought he'd never forget. Skrulls, Vulcanus.

God, this is weird.

And last time he'd been here, he hadn't looked like this.

He's walking through the City, metal hands concealed in his pockets. Every part of this is a mess. His powers are holding the phone to his ear, and there's no video.

He sounds like he's bored. ]

This place has good timing. I was almost in math class.

So I'm back. You can all stop missing me now. Since nothing's in pieces I'm gonna guess no one tried to destroy the place this week. Did I miss anything worth telling?

How long were you home?

voice

[rulebreaks]

About the same. It got pretty long in the months.

[ Beat. ]

For the record, I'm okay with you not taking off again.

[ This is code for, he missed you Buffy :c ]

Re: voice

[rulebreaks]

It wasn't exactly my choice, and it won't be the inevitable next time.

voice

[hellionated]

Like I care about that anyway.

I'm glad you're back. That, I care about. [ So here's a question he hasn't been able to ask in a long time. ] How's Dawn?

Re: voice

[rulebreaks]

[She pauses, Dawn is a ..sensitive issue atm.]

She's gained a little weight. [ehehehe]

voice

[hellionated]

[ wh...at...? ]

So she's a fat chick now? She didn't have to miss me that much.

Re: voice

[rulebreaks]

Not that kind of big. Let's just say she likes her Irishmen bones well ground.

voice

[hellionated]

So she's--

[ Wait what even is this. ]

How old is she now?!

Re: voice

[rulebreaks]

Seventeen?

voice

[hellionated]

So when you say 'big'... [ He's totally thinking pregnant. Maybe cause he's from the place where that just happened to Kitty Pryde, but whatever. ]

Re: voice

[rulebreaks]

I mean big! Giganto, enormous, huuuge. Literally, not in a really rude, kind of mean big sister way.

A thrice-wise turned her into an ogre-type. Not slimy and gross, just size-wise, Dawn-size... is now much, much larger.

[hellionated]

Oh. Well that's gotta be weird. Isn't that the weird, supernatural kind of thing that you normally slay before it gets its freak-ass hands on normal people?

Re: voice

[rulebreaks]

I try not to beat up Dawnie's boyfriends. Emphasis on t-ry.

voice

[hellionated]

Wow. And you gave me the stinkeye.

Just for the record? I wouldn't have hexed the girl.
