Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

Religion isn't the cause of wars. It's the excuse. - Christopher Brookmyre

Oooh. Cool.

The Master tends towards a lot of stuff about Buffy's role. Like 'You're not the hunter, you're the lamb.'

And that whole conv with Dracula is packed with comparisions between Slayers and vampires.

Let's see, Xander staked the vamp at the funeral home, the one who said "Angel says hello."

Thanks for all the fish.

Ah, with the improvised easel stake.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Yet another instance of vampires apparently having the consistency of tapioca pudding when someone tries to stake 'em. Now, I've seen Buffy bend a rifle barrel, so no objections to her impaling people on a sharpened object with casual exertion. But Cordelia?

If I ruled the world, all the directors of both shows would have been required to take a stake to a slaughterhouse and see how easy it is to ram it about six inches deep into a side of beef.

Thanks for all the fish.

But Cordelia?

Pretty sure she managed with a spatula, didn't she? Or was that just threatened?

She did. Which kind of underscores my point. If there had been a Season 8, we might have seen Dawn dust a vampire by throwing a clothespin in the general vicinity of its chest.

Well, considering how much attention they tended to pay to the actual position of the human heart, I'm surprised we didn't see Vamps dusted because they got a splinter in their finger.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Or their butt cheek.

Hey, would've worked for Pylean vampires.

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

Or their butt cheek.

That only works for vamped Pyleans.
