1st Bite [Action/Video]
(ooc: after this mess)
[A girl with a familiar face to a local artist is sitting in Good Spirits with a nice, typically expensive bottle of whiskey. She hates whiskey. Hates alcohol on a good day.
But this is a very, very bad day. Raylene Carter is a wonderful mess right now too: hair in tangles like her sister's and leaves and dirt stuck in it. Mud caking her feet and splashing up her legs, A dirty white newcomers dress and a pair of dark brown wings that won't stop twitching.
Something happened, something that could encourage her to go right for the alcohol and get righteously pissed. Some first day.]
[Video]
[The book isn't so hard to figure out even in her inebriated state. She squints at the screen a moment before mumbling with a thick drawl:]
Someplace 'round here that sells clothes?

[ buffy still thinks this might be a shifted jilly. so -- caution is warranted. ]
[ action ]
[It's such a lie good god. Raylene thinks she used to be good at this but she hadn't ever been so...unhinged when she worked before. She should leave, she knows that. Leave before she gets caught because then it's all over, she'll be killed. She knows that much. People love Jilly and the dreamlands don't have any use for a jail.]
Helen Ramirez.
[No where close to Jilly.]
[ action ]
[ a spark of disbelief -- but then again, only because she things some Shift has come along and warped her friend. she holds her fists against her hips, as though she's the lady of the domain. no lack of confidence, here. ]
You look familiar. That's all.
[ action ]
Yeah -- I get that a lot.
[ action ]
[ action ]
[Act confused, act confused, act confused. It isn't hard. She is kind of confused. But adapting. It's a learning curve that isn't helped by the drinking.]
Why wouldya guess that?
[Shit. She doesn't want to ask that question but it's a line of thought that someone unattached would have.]

[ action ]
And maybe I need glasses.
[ action ]
[She doesn't mean for it to be so deadpanned but that's just how it comes out and she winces for it. Don't be a bitch, just tipsy come on.]
Sorry. I get a little smart-alacky when I'm drinking I guess.

{ normally, buffy would call a stranger on their behaviour -- but she always made a point to cut some slack for the newbies. they had enough on their plate without etiquette lessons from her. ]
Buffy. I'm Buffy. Buffy Summers.
[ action ]
[It was purely perfunctory but Raylene read Miss. Manners once upon a time and that was a better response than what she would rather be saying. A more pleasant one.]

[ action ]
How long you been here?
[ action ]
[ action ] AUGH I THOUGHT I SENT THIS /sadness
[Is literally all she could possibly contribute.]
it's cool!
[ except for when it wasn't damning at all. ]
