I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

Thanks for all the fish.

And I knew that she was a Slayer. Doesn't seem like such a good idea now, does it? I mean, odds are you're not going to get someone as disturbed as her ever, but there are hundreds and thousands of girls running around with super powers and no supervision right now.

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

You guys definitely benefited from having no promo on this one. We were told she was a slayer.

Did you fall for the Spike-did-it fakeout? I did, but was mad at ME for rewriting him that way. I mean, not without Dru.

Wouldn't his arms just grow back on their own?

Are Vam-pires related to starfish?

I sense that there might be a Slayer uprising in the offing.

Thanks for all the fish.

I didn't fall for it. Because I kept timelining it and was all 'For it to be true, there must be Dru.'.

I'm afraid I didn't. It would have been better if he was the one who tortured her.

Would those drugs in the wall still be effective?

Thanks for all the fish.

Vampire healing, we've seen Spike bounce back from that gaping hole in his chest that Glory dug.

If they're gonna do drugs, they should do them right.

Yup. I was wondering if they were just working around a lack of Juliet Landau. But it left me with the conviction that Spike wouldn't do that sort of thing without Dru. Playing with the food is her and Angel. Spike would have seen a shiny thing, whacked her, and charged off to eat it.

Healing yes, growing apendages seems less believeable. Humans can heal from cuts, bruises, etc, but not regrow limbs. I'd think that vampire physiology wouldn't stray too much from that, other than accelerated healing.

Exactly, ita. And he pretty much says as that in the hospital scene. He's all about the 'rush, the crunch, never much looked at the victims'; Angel was the one who 'couldn't take my eyes off them'.
