Slayerfest 2048

"Who's gonna look after them?" Buffy'll ask, looking over the ladies in training.

"Jumpin' ahead, B. Let's be carefree."

Sagging, still blond to bleach the gray, Buffy'll say, "We're sixty-whatsit?-genarians."

"Sexa-. Speaking of sexay, they've got more to learn."

"'Bout Slayage in mini-skirts. But I can't teach that with those veins on my thighs." Buffy will flex her fist, watching Slayers in waiting. "It's their turn, now. You and I," she'll recall, "we've made our beds."

"Yeah," Faith'll agree. "End of the road. But you died, and how many years've passed? Little Miss Muffet can still kick that spider's ass."

LOVE it. The Little Miss Muffet shout-out made it. That and Buffy still dying the grey. Awesome.

I'd forgotten about Miss Muffet 'til I watched Graduation again recently, and I wondered what it meant. So I went and looked it up, and people were all like, "the counting down from 7-3-0" refers to how many days (two years) until Buffy dies for Dawn.

Whoa.

It kinda blew my mind. Because then I saw Faith as Dawn/little sister/protected but also prophet/guide/protector. And then I got all sniffley.

Anyway, thanks!
