[shuffling can be heard as the tape turns on, a bit of an inhale as Spike seems to recognize the tape is on; and before you ask, yes, sparkles can be heard.]

Oy, Peaches, y'don't even have the common courtesy to pop in and say "'ello" to your favorite offspring? 


Some Daddy you are. [the :c is palpable, let alone audible] When I- [tape cuts off abruptly // Spike is still as technologically deficient as always]

[tape clicks back on for a moment, one soft word can be heard before the transmission cuts out for good:] Bollocks.

"Very well." [Her answer is quiet, concerned she might upset him. Then they are walking silently again. His hair, once angelic, now strikes her as ghostly.]

"You will permit me time to give proper consideration to what you have said?" [It is a mix of a question and statement. She finally looks at him again for a moment, smiles, and then looks forward once more.] "If I were genuinely offended or to believe you entirely intolerable, I dare say we would not continue to walk."

It's -fine, pet. I should think on it.

But tell me - about yours, huh? What brought you here?

"Mm. Nothing so drastic. My eldest sister and dearest friend were both wed or engaged to be married. My mother insisted I should be next, but I insisted on finding someone with whom I could actually enjoy my life. I demanded love. The one man I thought I might have-- well, it was not to be. I was merely looking for a respite to regain my sensibilities and could not afford a trip to a place such as Bath."

[She feels kind of dumb and embarrassed comparing her running away from a boy with his being turned into a vampire, even if it was obviously something else that brought him here.] "After failing Castiel, I considered returning. But I feel as though I am doing good for some and I hope to continue to help people. It is a fulfilling occupation and I have made such acquaintance as I would never have had opportunity if I were in Longbourne. Though it is not proper, I question if it would be a more prosperous existence to remain here than to return only to be married."

[he nods, obviously hanging on her every word] There your actions would only be dictated by your mother, yeah? Here, you can be who you wanna be. [a bit of a flush here] It's a noble effort, an' I doubt you failed him.

"But it remains improper. And I do desire to be married in future." [She seems to be debating with herself more than informing him. Elizabeth doesn't notice his flush, still not willing to meet his gaze.]

"Thank you for your words, even if they are uninformed." [She's slowly moving closer to him, not romantically but just more comfortable again.]

[he's grateful for that, even if he wouldn't say so, and he allows himself a very human sigh] Yeah, but, do you really want to marry one of those prats? I know, Lizzie, I was one of 'em.

They're prats.

"And who better is there for me to marry? You?" [She lets out a delicate laugh.] "They may not be the best of gentleman, but I believe they are most attuned to my intent and desires. I have already more than one person here with my lack of understanding and I dare say I will continue to offend more. This place is not right for me, not for such pursuits."

[Elizabeth toys with the idea of Howie in her mind, though she won't say that to Spike. He seemed a respectable man, polite, and truly good. But he also seems uninterested and she knows the idea of rejection here is far worse than even among the eager gossiping mouths of Netherfield.]

"I admire your idealism, sir. Perhaps one day I may think of you if I am displeased in my marriage. Until that day, I pray you will allow me to continue hope."

"I do desire that you would stop calling me by that name, even if it is meant to belie endearment." [She seems more casual now by looking at him occasionally, though as they walk she still seems more fixed on the sights to see, as few as they are.] "I do believe that every man should posses some measure of hope. Or else what are we resigned to?"

"Do you mind if we continue our walk to the deck? It is lovely, in its own right."

"Though I cannot account for this beauty at all, it still does inspire the soul."

"The end of the world?" [Elizabeth asks softly, pausing in her joyous celebrations and moving to Spike. It crosses her mind to lift his face to look at her, but she knows such an action would be gross violation of all propriety, and instead stands there.]

"What is it that has you in such a state misery? I near want to cry on your behalf."

"You saw the end of the world?" [It crosses her mind that he might be lying about everything. He could be an inmate, a normal man. He doesn't look like a vampire, after all. It concerns her, yet she tries to ignore it and to give him the benefit of her doubts.]
