406: Post-JA meeting

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

After the JA meeting Angelus went back to his room. He shrugged off his coat, unbuttoned a few more buttons from the top of his shirt, then settled down on his bed to get comfortable.

His notebook was in his lap. He wrote in it, frowning intently. After a while he sat up, leaned over to rummage in a desk drawer, and pulled out a pair of glasses.

He flicked the glasses open, put them on, then sat back against his pillows to resume working.

His frown turned into a smile, as though change of accessories had in any way made a difference to his efforts.

The door was closed, but obviously his roommate or, alternatively, someone Angelus gave a rat's ass about could interrupt him.

(locked to Logan and Angelus, and Xander if he's around tonight)

"Ah, yes, that'd be handy," Logan said. He waved a hand at Angelus as if to say No big. "Ok, gotta ask - how do you smoke if you can't breathe?"

Angelus lit his cigarette, then sat back again, exhaling a long plume of smoke. "Magic? I don't understand how I bleed when my heart doesn't beat either, but there you go."

"Can you get stoned?" Logan asked. "Or would the smoke just circulate?"

"Far as I know it just circulates," Angelus said, "but that doesn't mean we can't get stoned. Just works differently from mortals. Spike swears he got high feeding off a flower child, but then it's not like his brain works well when it's sober either.

"There's also drugs just for us," Angelus tapped ashes into his tray. "By demons, for demons. And some genius figured out how to make drugs that give one high to a mortal that takes them, another to the same mortal and the vamp who's drinking from them as they're drinking from them. Never let it be said chem class is useless."
