Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

hmm. I am not sure I agree with that paragraph, at all. I think the author doesn't really represent diversity well and the mystical belief that people can be different and work together.

Sometimes diversity means that people have really different opinions that can't be reconciled.

Everyone in NCIS are serving the government's interests and believe in law, order, and the system. As someone who watches a whole lot of crime, such tv is often framed through a conservative law and order (and authoritarian) lens.

That isn't really true diversity, I don't think.

Couldn't think of a more deserving character to lose an eye.
