Buffy’s so pretty

She paused for a moment, until she heard other thoughts.

too bad she’s not slutty like her biker friend
there’s not an ass here I wouldn’t tap.
next time, I’ll wear one of mom’s thongs…
I wonder if that nymph book is back…
…and afterwards, she pees on my face…

TMI! TMI! TMI!

Buffy had to get to the library. Giles would be there, thinking boring thoughts about tea, and books, and scones. He would get to the bottom of this telepathy thing, and would in no way be thinking about forbidden sex with hunky undead boyfriends.

1. One of my friends was originally from New Dehli, and worked over here on an H1B Visa. His job just got outsourced to India. I feel bad. But I can't stop chuckling at the irony. This really merits a sitcom or a screenplay.

2. Kill Bill is an extroardinary stylish movie. I don't think it's the greatest movie ever, but it was a joy to watch. Now I really want to grow the a Pei Mei beard, even though I would look idiotic.

3. Went by the ASA SeaPower forum on the Hill. Jon Breaux and Commandant Hagee give the good speeches. Susan Collins, not so good, which is too bad because she otherwise seems rather likeable. Out of all of this, I might be getting an article in Undersea Warfare magazine. I don't know that I'm stepping laterally or vertically from the old HazMat stuff I did, but UW is something I can actually tolerate reading, so that's key.

4. Wesley's man-pain does not affect me this time. They've all made the faustian bargain by working at W&H, they've all been playing it through, and I just don't see where he's getting his righteousness from. At this point, I'd still like to know what his motivation ever was for being there, and Fred obsession aside, where his character is at. So yeah, I'm feeling Gunn's reactions quite a bit more right now. Fred is someone in their orbit everyday, and what happened to her was awful. But I suspect this sort of thing has been going on all year - and to me that's a huge issue to be worried about. What happened to Fred, awful as it was, is just the biggest example of the price of being at W&H. She wasn't the only price, and I really want to see Wesley realize that.

5. My nose is getting a bit better. The sinus stuff has largely receded. But the breating isn't quite right, and I think it's really a septum situation. Haven't tried any of the more radical suggestions, but I've got them at hand.

Heh. Your drabble is fascinating: Buffy's relationship with Angel is just as fringe as all that TMI, but she doesn't like to think of it like that. Or can't allow herself to follow through with the fantasy, considering it's Season 3. You rocked with that.

Some of the following is based on speculation from eps up through 5.18, "Origins":

Responding to your thoughts about Wesley here and in your other post: the point is that Wesley is completely over the deep end. It's not even about Fred any longer, because she's sure not staying dead for the audience. (We are still seeing AA; to yours and Luddite's point, I think Joss would have gotten rid of the actress to completely emphasize the point you think he's making about a price; I think he has other plans. Also, Illyria had some of Fred's memories, and now she just got a truckload more. That tells me Fred's coming back. So, the analyzation of what Joss is trying to tell us with Fred's death is a little premature, IMO, because...not dead.) For Wesley, it's about his pedestal worship of Fred being cut off and in his view, completely perverted by this alien thing. It's a war, but he's seeing himself as the victim, because he can't hide in his fantasy any longer. He was having trouble facing the reality before...now he's feeling completely fucked.

Project my feelings onto Wesley? I know not what you mean...

Which of course doesn't mean I'm not finding your discussions fascinating...

Thanks. And of course, older men like Angel and Giles don't have icky, immature thoughts that those gross boys do... Nor do proper girls, like Buffy. They're sophisticated.
