[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

I'm so going to call him that. And then hope that my powers of cute will save me from retaliation.
a violent and exciting Carrie-esque climaxHm. I thought it was more a locking-lawyers-in-a-wine-cellar thing. Well, sorta. Not a revenge fantasy; a reveal that the heroine wasn't one.
