[pm] Y-yeah, when they’re better. Totally.

[pm] Look, Will. I know stuff is tough with her right now. But she’s having a really tough time, she’s going through something really different. I understand, but I think it’s something only people who’ve come back can. 

And I know it looks right now like maybe things will never be better, but they will. It takes time, but eventually things will be okay. I’ve lived through it and I know. So just keep your head up, don’t let what’s happening with her get you down.  She’s down enough for the entire gang, but Spike and I are gonna help her. And she’s gonna get better the right way. 

Just please remember that.

[pm] Dawnie liked the crosswords? I /knew/ I wasn’t the only one who did them!!

[pm] Yes, and Dawnie like to force me to do them with her at every occasion. And especially when I wanted to go outside and play instead, that was always her favorite time to suddenly want to get her crossword on. But she’s Dawn so I don’t hold it against her. And nope, you’re not the Tigger of crosswords! Hope you aren’t disappointed.

[pm] I’ve heard bits and pieces. She was probably wild and cute as a button, you know? It sure would’ve been nice having you as my best friend growing up. I would’ve shared the throne of Narnia with you. And we could’ve played doctor together!

[pm] I’m pretty sure little me would have only been able to handle playing doctor if we got to play super Buffy rescues the damsel in distress afterwards! I was a pretty crazy kid myself, sorta bossy too. But we would have been the most adorable pair of buddies on the planet either way!

[pm] Not the best idea. She hates it when even /I/ mention it. But it’s sort of fun to think about, right? Patches and everything? On Faith?

[pm] Haha it makes me wonder what she was like as a kid. And you and Xander too. I wish I had known all of you my whole life, it feels that way, but I wish it was reality. You know? Because what would be cuter than baby Scooby Gang? Nothing.
