[pm] She didn’t get a wink last night; think she’s pretty freaked. Doubt she wants us fighting this thing either, but there’s no way in hell I’m gonna let this slide. I’ll keep you in the loop if we find something— or Willow will. Whatever.

Didn’t mean to spoil his moment then.

[pm] Willow knows too? That’s good. Did you tell her not to worry, that you and I are gonna handle this? And if we’re going to be fighting a demon together, we’re gonna have to be on speaking terms. You’re the only other person who is as strong and experienced as I am, and therefore one of the only people who I could trust to get this job done with me.

I’m by no means over what you did, but the past is the past. Dawn is alive and there are bigger problems at hand. I’m not gonna let someone I love die because of my own stubbornness.

the-better-slayer replied to your post: [pm] Said something about getting attacked by a Dullahan, and that he thinks he’s gonna die soon. It’s gotta be bull, right?

[pm] That’s what I said. It’s a headless horseman thing— stupid Halloween legend or something. Catching a square with it shouldn’t be too hard.

[pm] So I guess we just have to find out how to kill this beastie and we’ll be all set. I don’t understand why Giles is complacently accepting this when he knows we’re strong enough to defeat it. I mean, we’ve battled so much worse.

[pm] He said he wants to fight it, but yeah, he’s bein’ pretty tame about this. Usually I’d say we can knock it down a peg by taking its head off, but I guess that’s out for this one. Still, thinkin’ sharp objects’ll be a safe bet.

Hey, and Buffy— sorry I had to, you know, play messenger here. He lost me there too.

[pm] Well, Willow can help us find the way to kill it. If she wants to that is. But I think you can agree that it’s best if she doesn’t come along for the actual killage.

I think he was going to tell me in his own time, don’t worry about it Faith.
