Hello?
PR guy here. Need the info.

Since WHEN is Mr. Angel gay?

I could've curried a LOT of good publicity out of this. I may still be able to work something out, but honestly, the timing's like a week late.

Mr. Angel, you and I need to have a meeting, stat.

Also, I checked in my office closet, and there's a Segway there. Probably left by my predecessor. Huh. Pretty damn fun little toy. I seem to have natural command of it.

Go me.

	I'm not gay, Abrams. I am going to kill Spike, though. As soon as I can figure out a way. He's just jealous that Buffy dated me first. Tosser. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Buffy? Buffy Summers? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_champion_ 2003-10-25 07:18 pm UTC (link)
	That's my girl. How do you know Buffy? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	We, um, knew each other at UC Sunnydale. I kinda helped her find her way at the beginning of her freshman year. We haven't really been in touch since... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_champion_ 2003-10-25 07:31 pm UTC (link)
	That's . . . well, I suppose that's good. Good that someone was there for her after I left. It helps knowing that. You were good to her, weren't you, Abrams? I mean, I know you, Abrams, and you're been a general sleazeball and pain in my ass since Day One. If you hurt my girl . . . well, I really wouldn't want to be you. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	parker_abrams 2003-10-25 07:40 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, well, I keep saying - I'm really a nice guy if you give me a chance. I was very good to her. I really gave her what she needed, you know. Honestly, you leaving didn't ever seem to come up, though, sir. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	bounces in Why so tense, you two? OH! Did Angel finally find out about your little rendevous with the Slayer? notes: call Harmony and collect winnings from pool (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_champion_ 2003-10-25 07:52 pm UTC (link)
	Eve, we're busy. Go away. Wait. Are you using "rendevous" to mean what I think you're using it to mean? Details, Eve. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	parker_abrams 2003-10-25 07:54 pm UTC (link)
	What? C'mon. I - She doesn't know what she's talking about. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_champion_ 2003-10-25 07:59 pm UTC (link)
	She has in the past. I want the truth out of either you, or her, and I want it without any of that PR double-speak. I'm already not having a good day, what with Spike's newfound ability to annoy me. You really don't want to make it worse by, oh, say, lying to me about what you did to Buffy. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	parker_abrams 2003-10-25 08:03 pm UTC (link)
	Uh... shit. Mr. Angel, it's simply that Buffy and I - she needed somebody back in the day. And I was there. She needed a body, have a little fun, loosen up. I'm sure you know how difficult the college transition can be. I was simply there at a time when she needed somebody. That's all. There's nothing more to it, really. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

No, I wouldn't actually know how difficult the college transition could be. I do know, however, that Buffy has never needed just a body. Or to loosen up and have a little fun.

It's beginning to sound like you don't want me to find out what you did to Buffy. Took advantage of her, did you, Abrams? Seduced her like you've been doing Anne? I know Anne. Nice girl. Doesn't need slime like you.

You're going to come clean, and you're going to come clean now before you end up hamburger meat in the medical ward. And depending on what you did to her, you may end up hamburger meat anyway.

	parker_abrams 2003-10-25 08:25 pm UTC (link)
	Okay, you don't bring Anne into this. That's a different matter entirely. You want the truth? Buffy and I met, we had some good times, but she read to far into it, and things didn't end very well. I apologized to her for the whole incident, which, I should note, was four years ago. I'm sorry it turned out the way it did, I am. That satisfactory, sir? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	temptingbitch 2003-10-25 08:28 pm UTC (link)
	Hee! You're SO busted. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	_champion_ 2003-10-25 08:33 pm UTC (link)
	That's just -- I can't believe you, Abrams. Well, actually, I can, but that doesn't make me any less angry. You in your office, Abrams? If you're not, you need to get there. I'm coming down to speak to you personally about this. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	parker_abrams 2003-10-25 08:36 pm UTC (link)
	Um...no? I'm...not here... I - I'm in trouble, aren't I? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_champion_ 2003-10-25 08:38 pm UTC (link)
	Well, I don't know that I'd call it trouble . . . more like deep shit. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	parker_abrams 2003-10-25 08:48 pm UTC (link)
	Right. Did I mention I don't want to die? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_champion_ 2003-10-25 08:58 pm UTC (link)
	Too bad. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	parker_abrams 2003-10-25 09:00 pm UTC (link)
	But, it was, like, four years ago. It doesn't matter anymore. I'm a completely different person, sir. I'm making an effort, I have a girlfriend I treat very well. She and I are getting along very well, c'mon, Mr. Angel. Haven't I made you look good? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	temptingbitch 2003-10-25 09:01 pm UTC (link)
	Well, you DID try to make him look gay. Some people are offended by that. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	parker_abrams 2003-10-25 09:06 pm UTC (link)
	I thought he was coming out! C'mon...how was I supposed to know that wasn't him? C'mon, any time I personally concentrate on Mr. Angel's image, his approval goes up 10%. Doesn't that mean anything? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_champion_ 2003-10-25 09:23 pm UTC (link)
	Not so much, no. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	_champion_ 2003-10-25 09:13 pm UTC (link)
	And I of all people should know how much of a difference four years makes. Doesn't matter. You hurt Buffy. I can't just forgive that. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	parker_abrams 2003-10-25 09:25 pm UTC (link)
	Buffy hurt herself. Not my fault she read too deeply into it. What was I supposed to do, put myself in a relationship doomed to failure? Not really my territory, sir. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_champion_ 2003-10-25 09:30 pm UTC (link)
	How do you know it was doomed to failure? Are you saying there's something wrong with Buffy? Because, really, Abrams, you're in trouble enough already. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	parker_abrams 2003-10-25 09:50 pm UTC (link)
	Buffy's great, Mr. Angel, really. I've got nothing against her. But look at me, I'm barely relationship material now. How do you think I was then? I couldn't give Buffy what she really wanted. Would you want a guy like me in a relationship with her? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_champion_ 2003-10-25 09:55 pm UTC (link)
	No, I wouldn't. As a matter of fact, I really wouldn't want you anywhere near her. I wish I'd been there to stop you in the first place. As it stands now, maybe if I put you in traction, you'll rethink treating any girl like that ever again. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	parker_abrams 2003-10-25 09:59 pm UTC (link)
	Hey, now, boss. No need to get violent. It was a mistake that was made four years ago. Can we leave it? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_champion_ 2003-10-25 10:03 pm UTC (link)
	No, we really can't. I'm leaving my office now. You'd better be in yours when I get there. Really, Abrams. I don't want to have to hunt you down. That'll make me cranky. We don't want that. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	parker_abrams 2003-10-25 10:04 pm UTC (link)
	Sir? I - Aw shit (Reply to this)(Parent)

	liliaeth 2003-10-26 12:59 am UTC (link)
	You know Angel, this might be one of the few things you and Spike agree on. (hint, ask Spike to refocus his attentions a bit, it's not like he didn't mention this guy to you before... You know, like during that little mess with the Gem of Amara) (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soulvamp 2003-10-26 06:40 am UTC (link)
	I'd wager the ponce figured I was lying. Peaches, it's all true, sorry to say. Why do you think I've been givin' the lad dirty looks? (Reply to this)(Parent)

	immortallove 2003-10-26 07:29 pm UTC (link)
	'Bout damn time ya decided to kill him. Or at least hurt him very badly. Ya shoulda listened to Spike. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	temptingbitch 2003-10-25 08:00 pm UTC (link)
	That's ridiculous. I'm the executive liaison to the Senior Partners! Of course I know all about your one-night stand with the Slayer! Your special brand of charisma works just as well in the PR room as it does in bed, you know. It was one of the strengths upon which you were hired. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	harmony_vamp 2003-10-25 10:03 pm UTC (link)
	pout Okay, fine, so, like, what do I owe you again? And really, you two couldn't have fought about, you know, like, two hours later? (Reply to this)(Parent)
