What is even happening?
Yeah, but it really was part of the episode The Gift, in a way in which none of the other previouslies were.

Oh, god, he's dead. I'd managed to forget that...
Depends on what contract he signed.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hmm. Doesn't seem the sort to sign without reading -- didn't he commit before finding out there was a post-death clause in existence?

Seriously, he could be dead, but still around.

Angel committed for them, though they all said, "Oh, OK." It could be an interesting legal debate. If they all got the standard contract, then the end of A:tS had interesting ramifications.

Hmmm. I would assume that they'd need your legitimate signature in your own blood on a contract that clearly contained the fine print in order for Wolfram & Hart's retirement policy to be effective. Surely even Fred wouldn't have been crazy enough to sign a document promising her immortal soul. (Though if she were, psyche! on finding a loophole...)

I can't even.

I know. And with no one around to properly handle and catalogue the books, clearly we're going into another dark age. Andrew can probably bag and board an Outsiders #1, but he's got a lot of catching up to do.

I know there's something else I should be doing, but instead I was surfing buffyguide to put air dates to character deaths. I'm trying to work out how many of Joss's startling kills fall during sweeps.
Air DateSubject 3/10/1997Jesse 3/10/1997Luke 4/14/1997Darla 6/2/1997Buffy 9/29/1997The Anointed One 1/20/1998The Judge 2/24/1998Jenny 5/12/1998Kendra 12/8/1998Buffy 12/8/1998Cordelia 2/9/1999Allan Finch 2/15/1999Mr. Trick 11/9/1999Veruca 2/8/2000Maggie Walsh 5/9/2000Forrest 2/19/2001Joyce
My definition of startling is obviously subjective, and Buffyguide's synopses end around spring of 2001.
Which ones am I missing? And sweeps -- November, February, May, right?
