[The PCD is set on a bedside table, so nothing is really the center of focus. The part of the window in view is carefully boarded up, and the bed is large and clean. And occupied.

Horst wakes the moment the sun is gone, just a twitch of the fingers at first and then a groggy mumble. He rolls onto his side, instinctively moving towards warmth. Yuca is next to him, though very much awake; the PCD can't see much of him at first, though.

Horst's arm snakes around Yuca's waist and pulls him closer.
]

Hey. Fancy meeting you here.

...House is quiet. What'd you do with the kids?

[He sees the blinking light, makes a face, and turns the PCD off]

You are so leaving me out!

[Horst grins. He's arm wrestled Buffy before; like she has of all vampires, she pretty much whipped him.]

My money's on Buffy.

[Grin! Sometimes being the Slayer is very useful!] At least Uncle Horst believes in me!

Starting wager, a bag of salt. [It's not like money means anything here, right? and he has to keep salt hidden when Yuca cooks or it gets mistaken for sugar.] Against any of Severus's kids. He neglected you so you're on my team now, Buffy.

Cut me in on any sweets in the wager, and you've got a deal!

You strike a hard bargain, but I agree to your terms.

Hey, I'm going against my own father and siblings! The sweets are just- compensation, for any emotional trauma that causes.

[Cue emotional trauma, from another source.]

You-- You're siding against you father?

[Ooops... Busted?]

Only because you left me out! I could so take any of Uncle Horst's kids!

I only left you out because you've already proved that you could easily take on and beat any and all of his children.

[See the complete and utter faith daddy has in you, daughter? And see the pain and hurt of your doubt of that faith?]

[Oooops the second? Don't look like that, daddy! Buffy doesn't handle guilt trips well!]

I love you? I'll, uh- I'll just back out then! It's probably not fair for me to play anyway, what with- Slayer strength.

Are you sure? I wouldn't want to stop you from doing something just because you feel bad for me...

Yeah, I'm sure. Besides, Rip and I are really getting along great right now. I wouldn't want to have to go up against her or anything like that.

[See! She can be good!]

[Smirk. Partly because his two eldest daughters are behaving for once, but mostly because daddy wins in getting you out of being Horst's bet. But he's passing it off as the former.]

What a pleasant surprise.

[Alright. Opening move has been made. Dad is a crafty one, however. She's going to have to be very careful about how far she takes this gambit.]

Yup! I mean, we're sisters, twins. We can't just argue back and forth like Harry and Draco do for the rest of our lives. So- we decided to try and put the past behind us.

[You mean by making up that competition to see who has more family members asking them what's wrong? Yeah, he saw that.]

I'm glad that what your mother and I have been saying ever since the two of you were four seems to have finally gotten through.

[Darn it! She really should have filtered that- which is ironic, considering it came up when she told Rip to filter prank suggestions... Karma. Sucks. And this isn't working. Again.]

What can I say- we were stubborn. We've seen the light though!

[All you girls may be daddy's little princesses, but you all have a long ways towards out-Slytherin-ing him.]

Stubbornness is a family trait, I suppose.
