A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Seems likely that the waking kiss will be from

Didn't that character specifically exclude him/herself as not qualifying?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Cindy, yes.

Steph, I'm SO behind in my comics. I have a stack that dates back to NOVEMBER to read.

Blame the Ackles.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I think it being Xander is too obvious based on the current issue.

What is even happening?

Not, explicitly.

Amy says, "Any of you pros notice she's still asleep? She's living a nightmare, genius, and the only thing that can wak her up is the kiss of true love.

Later they have this exchange:

XANDER: So this doesn't have to be someone she's in love with.

AMY: No, I said. Just someone truly in love with her.

XANDER: But not friend-love.

AMY: Right. Someone who wants to kiss her, like, they're passionate about her.

XANDER: And not a sister.

AMY: Well, a twisted sister.

XANDER: HA! But no, I hate you.

Later

XANDER (to the other slayers): Keep a guard on her and get our witches working on this "true love" crap.

AMY: It's real, Xander. Your star player's out unless she receives a kiss from someone passionately devoted to her.

AMY: Care to give it a whirl?

(close up on Xander's eye.)

That said, since it seems to be Spike in Buffy's dream, and Buffy is known to have prophetic dreams, who knows.

I'm guessing that Xander can't be the one to wake Buffy up because at the beginning of her dream when she kisses Xander his head pops off. And the way Amy kept egging Xander on made me wonder what the catch was? Maybe the spell kills the messenger if he doesn't truly love her? Kiss me, kill me? Dunno, I suck at analyzing dreams.

editted to flesh the idea out a little more.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I don't think that particular character kissing Buffy would indicate a potential hookup. Just that that character has those feelings for Buffy.
