Hi. You've reached Spike. I'm really busy doing something very important. Leave a message if you want. I'm not going to return it.

[So far, so good, and there isn’t any sign of a single reason Klaus might just really not like Spike. Lucky him, hm?]

I know all about worse. [He purses his lips with the thought.

But those features shift into something like a truly caught off-guard sort of shock. It is quite the offer, even if Klaus isn’t sure if it’s meant as a general come on, an invitation for a roll in the sheets or something more long-term like suddenly being roommies is absolutely on the table, now.

There’s the most obvious shock in the expression but something else the tiniest bit softer just around his eyes, a subtle and hidden sort of being overwhelmed by the acceptance he has already found here.]

Tempting... [He Huns thoughtfully.] but is the offer just for tonight, or...?

[ More like lucky Klaus, considering the usual fate of people who get too close to Spike. (Protip: don't join the mob if you want to have friends who aren't mobsters.)

Spike frowns and tilts his head side to side. ]

We got along pretty good before. The place is way too big for just the two of us, even with the dogs. So yeah. If you like it, you're welcome to just stay here.

[He looks over at Spike, a ghost of a smile on his lips. He wonders if the other man understands what an offer like this even means to him. Because it's a lot.] Thanks, Spike... um-- [His eyes drop and he's fidgeting suddenly. The truth is, he doesn't feel like he can take that offer, no matter how much he wants to.] it's just- my sister's here and... I have some things I need to sort out with her, yanno? But... [He looks back up at him again, a cautious look in his eyes.] I mean, if you really don't mind an occasional third roomie crashing in another room... I could take you up on that sometimes.

[ It doesn't seem like a lot to Spike. Most people he's lived with never asked, they just moved in. He was kicked out of the Bebop more times than he can remember, even if Jet let him come back after he cooled off. The weird thing is to actually invite somebody in. But the hotel sucks. Being tailed sucks.

He shrugs at the concern over Klaus' sister because that is an aspect of life he has no experience in whatsoever, so you do you, dude. ]

Not at all. That's basically how Faye and I started living together before we ended up here.

end or yours to wrap ♥

[Little things go a long way with Klaus, buddy.]

Awesome.

[He grins. This may have started because he knew a different version of him, but he feels like Spike could really be a good friend to him. He'll shoot the shit with Spike for awhile, watching whatever's on tv. Eventually, he passes out in a bit of a slump against his new friend.]
