Replacing the Zippo

A Break New
It was almost easy to keep the mummy from awakening. You even made sure that Giles knew to check on it, and he would be putting in some extra security after that. The exchange students coming in to Sunnydale High for some time were something else to reflect on. The exchange student Buffy was meant to host was, unfortunately, killed by vampires before she managed to pick him up. Perhaps he was just fated to not manage to make it back, as depressing as that thought was.

You had space to think for now. Without the Incan mummy awake there was time before the next minor disaster that would hit Sunnydale would arrive. There were many possibilities to reflect over. You could work at the bar more. You could see if you could get on top of what Spike and Drusilla would be dong before they attacked again. You could research more about the supernatural in Giles' library. You could try and see if you could get together an activity night for your friends. Perhaps watching bad movies would be a good choice, who wouldn't enjoy something cheesy you could yell at? There was school itself of course, but that was more on the back burner. And the fate of the mummy still tugged at you. Could you really keep leaving her like she was?

Bar Days New
You decided to focus on keeping your ear to the ground and spending time at the bar. Marcie continued to be a wonderful back up for that. You were considering whether or not you should introduce her. They wouldn't be put off by the fact that she was invisible, it was a chance for her to socialize more with others outside of your group. They also might try to kill or eat her though, that was something you still had to keep into consideration.

You knew that you were tolerated because the bar was a neutral space and you took care to never let your guard drop among the predators. They might like your spunk and enjoy telling you gossip, but they could also decide that you were a particularly tasty snack at any moment. Especially with the constant mix of new people passing through.

Spike it seemed had made a complete menace of himself after taking apart the local court and driving any vampires he could find into serving Drusilla while he kept working on a cure. Interestingly enough you also got to hear news about some of the local demon cults around Sunnydale and their plans for various rituals. The fertility ritual was one that you could have done without hearing about it in quite such explicit detail, but the one where it was just a case of offering a hunted animal to their demonic overlord wasn't so bad. The news about the fraternity that would be offering their usual girls to continue their wealth came up, with plenty of teasing about how humans tended to offer things that were so valuable for the most ridiculous things.
