35th Slay [voice]

[Apologies don't come easy to Buffy. She's entirely too bossy for that so when she finally speaks, her words are a little hesitant and flipped around to divert this whole apology thing]

So...the whole humiliation thing...thanks so much City. Because pulling a Xena warrior princess thing isn't enough I also have to do the Romeo and Juliet thing. Okay so not quite Romeo and Juliet because no one died and hello been, there done, that. Romeo and Juliet totally had it easy. Not that that's the point here...

John Pyro, I'm deeply in the throes of apology at the moment. Not that the kissing was---good. I mean it was...nice and the--[her voice pitches up a good deal on the next words]really nice. [A very long, dramatic, PTB please kill me now sigh. She's pinching the bridge of her nose and it comes through in her tone] And now I'm going to stop with the speaking.

Except...Aya...I'm sorry but if you marry my sister before she turns 25 I'll beat you. It's not a you thing. It's an age thing.

Dawn...you're grounded until you're 24. [Not that she thinks that will really work.]

Yeaaaah...I think it's in the job description when they hire you.

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

Now if I can just get Dawn to realize that.

Do you have siblings?

[waitsforever.livejournal.com]

I think it's in hers to not.

And no...only child. Just me and my mum.

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

Bleh. You're probably right.

Outside point of view then.

[waitsforever.livejournal.com]

Totally, yep. All....second-hand, observation on my part.

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

Good observations.

[waitsforever.livejournal.com]

Thanks. So...not a fan of the City's arranged-marriage thing?

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

Or arranged marriage in general.

[waitsforever.livejournal.com]

Had a lot of experience with that?

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

Arranged marriage? Not so much. I mean kind of. There was a curse and a marriage being planned and so would not have ever married him. [Except you know two years later she was dating, in the loosest sense of the word, the same guy]

[waitsforever.livejournal.com]

[Casually...]

A curse here...? Or at home?

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

Home. It was a spell that my best friend, Willow, did but it sort of went wonky. Or at least I think it went wonky with what she intended.

[waitsforever.livejournal.com]

Ohh, yeah! Yeah. It's. I wasn't sure. Because the things here are called curses as well.

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

I guess technically you'd call it a spell. It seemed like a curse though.

[waitsforever.livejournal.com]

Well, curses are a kind of spell....right?

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

Depending on the spell, I think it qualifies.
