A list of your special talents
1. I can drink more caffeine than should be legal for any one person.
2. I’m good with explosives.
3. I’ve got the whole Lazarus thing going on
4. I can tune out pretty much anything
5. I can (unfortunately) make a mean hamburger
6. I’m good with the B&E
7. I know that a movie, ice cream and kicking ass can fix anything. Or at least take the pain away for a little while.
8. I’ve got the sacrifice thing down pat.
9. Along with the annoying Giles thing.
10. I can order coffee, pastry and pasta in Italian. I also know how to ask where the cute shoes are.
11. I can kick ass in a pair of heels.
12. I’m good at carving stakes
13. and digging graves, even though I insist on the boys doing it if they’re around.
14. According to Giles, I slaughter the English language with surprising ease. Guiltless too.

And murdering the English language? Tell him its a tradition. It mugs over languages for spar words all the time. English is a brutal language you know. Should watch out for it in dark allies.
(Have they ever met outside of SIU? I don't think so.)
no subject
Spar words? I call it witty banter. It makes a slow night more interesting. Giles is just old and very British. He's better than he used to be though. He says he used to only understand every third word I said.
(nope! I don't think they have! This will be fun)
no subject
What is your line of work?
No, I dig witty banter. Stuffy British?
Dude, tell him to stay away from Seattle slums. We mangle the language here.
no subject
Uhm...Slayer, comma The...only sorta one of many now so more comma A. The just sounds cooler.
Definitely stuffy. He'd go all red in the face and get flustered and start doing this cluck thing. It'd be sorta hilarious.
I'm Buffy by the way.
no subject
The does sound cooler than a. Lesson the work load? So. . .Slayer, of the midnight uglies? I've heard a rumor or two.
Like a chicken! You taunt him don't you?
Alec, as in smart.
no subject
More like...needed a bigger army? And yeah that's pretty much me. Sweet! My PR is working.
Like it's my calling.
Nice to meet you, Alec, as in smart.
no subject
You've got an ad campaigne? I've got hunters in the family.
Nice to meet you to.
no subject
No, it was a joke. I keep telling Giles I need one. There could be billboards and tv commercials but he starts going on about secret identities and stuff. I showed up in glasses one day and told him my name was Mary Kane. He didn't get the joke.
I'm assuming they're hunters like things that go bump in the night hunters and not Bambi hunters. You know, because of the subject matter.
no subject
You'd make a good covergirl. Slayer Fashion or something. You could use a different ID each day of the week. Pretend to be your own twin. All sorts of funky stuff.
Yeah. Family business. Who'd want to hunt Bambi. No challange.
Also, Bambi the Disney character is male, but it's a female name. Am I th only on that finds that a little weird? Chicks using guy-ish names I know, but the other way around?
no subject
Aww thanks. It'd be kinda fun. After I did my thing, making me an A instead of a The, some of the bad guys had a mad on for me so Giles had this brilliant idea of plants. Of me...not the green things. All over the world. It was cool until one of them started being lame-o and dated a guy named The Immortal. Recently I heard I died. It was one of my clones...only not clones just girls made up to look like me. I don't like the clone idea anymore. It creeps me out and it really doesn't take long to figure out the blonde they're fighting/stalking/whatevering isn't me.
Yeah I don't get the hunting deer thing. Or the gun thing but you're right about the challenge. If I can go over my to do list, think about what movie I want to see at the end of the night and what I need to take to the dry cleaner in the morning while I'm fighting, it's never a good thing. It makes for a Bored Buffy and that's not good.
*shrug* I dunno. I know a guy named Angel. I always thought it was a girly name but he makes it very not girly once you get to know him. In general though, I concur.
So tell me about you. I've been all self-absorbed girl.
no subject
You know, people hearing that they've died seems to be going around. Maybe it's a new age thing. Like a trend. Dude, I've be afraid to let anyone else play being me. I can get into enough trouble all on my own.
Dude, if I can think about laundry at all there's an issue.
I know a chick named Max. Not short for anything. Just Max. And I named a girl Ralph. But there were cumstances.
About me? X5, married, six feet tall, smartassed, can bench press a Buick and live through the Black Plague.
no subject
It's not a good trend. In fact I think even leg warmers might be better. Some of the girls do and some of them try things I never want to have attached to my name. IE The Immortal. Seriously? My dating life is lame but it's not that lame.
*laugh* I think it comes with being a girl. I like pretty clothes even when I'm slaying.
I've met a few girls with guys names but Angel is the only guy with a girly name I've ever met.
Bench press a Buick huh? I've never tried. I think it would give me some problems. I've never really tested my strength because I've always been strong enough to do what I needed to do. Some stuffy British guys tried and I threw a sword at them.
And the Black Plague? I've got a good immune system but I'm pretty sure that'd do me in. Color me impressed. Which is like a yellow color but the pretty sunny color and not the pukey jaundice color.
no subject
We're pretty fast and loose with name names here, but we're all up with the descriptive. Max, Alec (As in smart), Fixit, Bounce, Bullet. You get the idea.
Actually, I've never tried to bench press a Buick, but I bet I could. I'm sure it's in my file some where, but I don't read it. Sword throwing is about how I felt about it, but they were blown up. That's pretty satisfying to.
Totally serious about the Plague. We can stand up to pretty much anything, including radiation.
No, I like sunny. Bright and cheerful.
no subject
I like it. I may have to rename some of the slayerettes. I could probably remember them that way.
Blowing things up works for me too. I just happened to have a sword handy.
That's cool. The misogynistic idiots who made slayers shoulda thought of that. It'd be handy.
Me too. I'm in Scotland right now and I'm kind of lacking the sunny.
