2nd Floor Common Room

Marty sits on the couch watching TV and in general hanging out. He's watching Crime and Justice:Illegal Intentions, but his mind is clearly elsewhere.

Feel free to bug him.

Logan flopped down on the couch next to Marty. "Hey," he said. "Got a question for you."

Marty gives Logan a suspicious look. "Yeah? What can I do for you Echolls?"

[fh_jackass]

"You were there. When Kitty died," Logan said in a low voice. "I heard the evidence. What the hell happened? What did Angelus do that made you and Kitty freak so badly?"

Marty gives logan a look of surprise. "You heard the evidence? Okay... First: how did you hear it? I mean *I* haven't even heard the recording. Not that I care to relive it And second, why should you care?"

[fh_jackass]

"I have a source," Logan said, with a wave of his hand. "And a deep and personal interest in the abilities of Angelus."

Marty looks over at Logan's list of injuries. "Yeah. I bet you do.

Marty fiddles with the remote before answering Logan's question.

"That night? Let's just say Angelus wasn't too happy about me investigating the whole fear toxin incident at Spike's pub. He thought it be fun to kill me until Kitty showed up. He dropped a dose of that Fear toxin on us, which caused us both to freak out."

Marty gives Logan a knowing look. "You heard the rest."

[fh_jackass]

Logan nodded, a cold look in his eyes. "So, that's what the fear toxin does," he said softly. "Where'd it come from? Any ideas?"

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

"I know exactly where it came from. Just didn't have any valid evidence to pin the guy. Jonathan Crane." Marty practically spits out the name.

"Of course everyone around here thinks he's just the nicest guy in the world..."

[fh_jackass]

"Gee. Where have I heard that before?" Logan asked, deadpan. "What happened at Spike's Pub? Who was affected?"

Faithful padded into the room, apparently looking for something.

"Let's see... George Lass, Xander Harris, Chloe Sullivan, Evelyn Carnahan, Han Solo, yours truly and Kitty Pryde were all affected. From everyone I interviewed someone gave those two dopeheads outside the Kwik Stop the toxin and told them it was some kind of love drug. The loudmouth guy dropped the vial and all hell broke loose," Marty says as he flips a couple of channels.

"I was able to track back the drug to Crane, but didn't have any evidence to nail him with it. He was there that night watching the whole thing as it went down. My guess? That night was just a test experiment for his little drug."

Marty waves at the cat. "Hey Faithful. How you doing this evening?"

[fh_jackass]

"You told Bristow?" Logan asked.

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Marty sighs. "Just that I knew it was a student who made the toxin and that we needed to lock down our chemical lab supply closet to keep him from making any more."

A haunted look crosses over Marty's face.

"Apparently he made just enough."

[lightningsword.livejournal.com]

Faithful purred and climbed underneath the couch. "Well. And you?"

[fh_jackass]

Logan looked down at his hands for a moment, and nodded. "Thanks, Marty."

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Marty looks over at Logan for moment. "How are you and Rory holding up?"

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Marty flips a couple of channels not really watching anything. "Not too bad. It was nice getting away from campus for few days. Did you and Alanna do anything fun?"

Rory wanders down to the second floor common room after finding the one on her own floor empty. "Hey, Marty. What's new?"

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Marty looks up from the TV and gives Rory a smile. "Hey Rory. Look at you with the walking thing. Does this mean I'm not your lackey anymore?"

[swerval_zero]

*trudges past dragging an amp, a guitar case, and a suitcase*

*pant pant* Hey guys. Let me take a breather.

[swerval_zero]

Rory! You're mobile!

[fh_jackass]

"Peachy," Logan said. "She, uh, threw waffles at Angel the other day."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"You never were my lackey," Rory pouts. "You refused, as I recall. Meanie."

"You're no longer a kitten!"
