Buffy - you mean mostly the Initiative. And I forgot to say: I'm UPSET that they killed off Ethan.

I wouldn't be surprised if like Willow, Ethan was now in Buffy to an extent, since he got into her head somehow already. And I still like Victor's theory about Anya being in there somewhere too.

And I agree, she's at war with people who think she's already at war with them.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

You realize that Buffy #4 gave a very strong indication of who kissed Buffy to wake her up, right?

Steph, are you thinking Willow ?

I hadn't really thought about it, but that's probably right. Not sure I want to comtemplate the implications, though.

Yes! I was the only one in my group of 4 reading together who caught that. Do you think it's misdirection.

And, if it is that slayerette who is in love with Buffy, is that why Buffy picked her for the mission? Not that she knows but that she is feeling some kind of link? Otherwise, aside from the hair appreciation, why THAT slayer out of all of them?

Not Willow. The Slayer she took with her to save Willow. From whom she borrowed cinammon scented lip gloss.

Frankenbuddha -- no.

lisah -- yes. Though I think it's open to misdirection as well.

But - (and I need to go back to check the veracity of this) that slayerette wasn't in the room at the time.

Ah, see I totally missed that.

I was thinking Willow because Buffy had some of her power. Although I seem to recall that happened during the run of Buffy at one point, which is why it didn't ping me while I was reading it.

Sumi, I totally disremember that. Well, I don't remember it one way or the other. It was just that Buffy saying "Cinnamon" was so obviously meant to point to something, and not just be random WhedonBuffyspeak.
