Just like you. Nothin's ever done on a small scale.

I'm go-big-or-go-home Buffy, Derek. And I'm not going home so I'd better go big.

Just don't go out. In a blaze of glory or any other way, for that matter.

Quietly and in my bed at the age of a hundred and three is my goal.

[ she doubts she'll reach it. ]

You never know. Might actually happen.

[And about as likely as Derek living much past where he is now when he goes home]

...It's a pretty thought. A fairy tale.

[ she's become so fond of telling herself those recently. ]

Yeah, maybe. But it's something to reach for. Nothing wrong with that.

[It's always worth holding to if you got something like it.]

And what are you reaching for?

[ because she's concerned whether derek's picked a thing to reach for at all. ]

[There's a long silence, where Derek simply sits and looks out over the water. Finally, though, he shrugs, standing so that he can head to shore.]

Watching out for the village until I'm sent home.

Somehow? I don't think that qualifies as reaching. Not for you, not for either of us.

[ that's just second nature. ]

[Derek will shrug.]

It'll work for now.

Seen a lot of Third Party?

...Enough. Or maybe not enough. In the middle of it all, I can't really tell.

Yeah. Lot of them. I keep wondering if I'm going to run into any I've already killed in the past.

[Yep, we're going over here to this conversation now.]

It's...possible. Believe me.

[ before they left, jack had explained to her that he had met the elite who had killed him. and since then, she'd been watching each enemy's face a lot more carefully.

it hasn't done wonders for her mental state. ]

I don't doubt it. Isnt part of the reason they're because they can't die for good, either?

Mmhm. I guess. At least that's the story we're given.

Don't believe it?

More like don't know what to believe.

Simplest might be the most likely.

Doesn't that have a name? Octopus's Razor or something?

Occam's. Lex parsimoniae. Not quite the same thing, but close enough.

...Bless you.

Thanks.

Obviously not a fan of Latin, huh.

...A little too hocus pocus for me.

[Derek laughs]

Yeah, well that hocus pocus is also the base for a bunch of different languages, including ours.

....should probably be getting back. Next shift won't be too far off.
