[he gives this careful thought, going back to every conversation he's ever had with angelus, because this is something he's taking incredibly seriously. and —]
I challenged him. That could be the reason.
[u ever have the realization that u fucked up real bad
anyway.]
There's someone here who comes from the same place he does. Faith. She said this is what he does.
[unlike the awareness of his own idiocy, the revelation that faith had been one of the wolves has next to no impact. if anything, it tells him he's put his trust in the right place, because she can kill, and that's something likely to be needed. a slayer, and a saint of the knife; the odds do feel better than they had hours ago.]
She told me about some of that, about what being a Slayer involves.
As for the vampire, his name is Angelus.
[he realizes she probably needs that to know where to start.]
[the name is unfamiliar, but alia only pays the most cursory of attention to the affairs of those outside her close circle. it is not armand or his ilk, not spike, though from the same world as him (spike to buffy, buffy to faith, faith to angelus.]
It is a sort of warrior, yes? Perhaps allying with her as well is a good place to continue.
There are those here who do not carry much affection for the vampire, regardless of his world. Do not underestimate the power of public opinion.

Aha. It could indeed.
Faith. She is one of the Slayers, one of the wolves from the games. There are several from her world here.
