Really? Slayer 'tude? That's the best thing you could come up with?

Couldn't you have gone with something a little more original? Also, while I have your attention, you should really think about finishing what you started before having me jump off the deep end like this. At least get some more icons, and I don't know, maybe finish more than the first season?

You're not even listening to me, are you? [She sighs.] It figures.

Could be worse, Slayer. You could be, I dunno, vampbait, for one.

[slayertude]

[She makes a face.]

Oh, trust me, if she'd used that as a name, I'd be even more annoyed with her than I am right now.

[idolstolemylook]

Told you!

[jewess]

I've, um -- I've seen... vampirelayer. So, you know. There's the potential for worseness.

[slayertude]

Yeah, I know, but this... It's not really that great.

[jewess]

Well, do you have any ideas of your own? 'Cause, you know, my mun... never really listens to me, ever. Only sometimes, when she sees you around, since you talking to you would be weird even by Sunnydale standards. But yours might listen to you if you have suggestions! Maybe, um -- maybe something dances with wolves-esque? Stabsswithastake?

[noshrimp]

I like it. It's very to the point.

[slayertude]

Yeah? Well, at least someone does.

[vampiresbeware]

I think it's great, other-Buffy. Do you like mine too?

[slayertude]

Oh, hey, other-Buffy! Yeah, it's great!

They should beware of us.

[Suddenly, fist-sized hovering flaming skull. With a stuffy British accent, because of course.]

Oh I don't know, I think that as far as embarassing names go you certainly could do a lot worse! Unliving proof right before you, and all that.

[slayertude]

Whoa, okay. Hi.

[It's a good thing Buffy's seen unusual things before, because whoever he is, he qualifies as unusual.]

I guess you have a point, though.

[skullfudgingmotherfunker]

Evening! Johnson's the name, just thought I'd pop up and say hi to someone who, according to the munster here, is in the same "biz" as yours truly, add an encouraging word or two because, seriously, I know all about embarassing names by now. Enough so that I wish he would've gone for option number two but nope, he insisted on giving me a "conversation starter" name because it's not like I can carry a conversation all on my own using nothing but my charming personality. Ooooh no, I need a moniker that'll have everyone think I'm some sort of foul-mouthed ruffian!

[And all that was said in about a minute. When all you have is a mouth? You learn how to use it real fast.]

[satanlawyer]

It could always be worse always.

[slayertude]

Yeah, I know. I guess I shouldn't complain so much.

[satanlawyer]

You're not as bad in that respect as your former vamp boyfriend

[gravedigs]

I'm pretty sure the awkward names that you're then stuck with are just part of the fun for them.

[slayertude]

Yeah, probably, but they're the only ones laughing.

[gravedigs]

At least "slayertude" isn't... terrible? A little cheesy, but not terrible.

[placeintheworld]

[Have a brawny looking almost cowboy - fellow.]

...Here a slayer, there a slayer. It's original at least. Slayer-tude.

[slayertude]

You really think it's original? I think she just slammed together the first words she thought of. I mean, honestly, combining slayer and attitude doesn't take a lot of brain power.

[watchher]

For a group of people claiming their hobby as creative, the necessary trait seems to be distributed rather thinly. [ Yes, well, muns are idiots would've been a shorter way to say that, Giles. ]

In any case, once one has been selected for a, a... setting, a game, name becomes the least of one's troubles. [ Reassuring as always! See, Buffy, the seasons change hardly anything at all. ]

[slayertude]

Finally, someone who understands!

[Thank you, Giles. And oddly, she understood that, even if it took a bit of parsing.]

Well, lucky me, then. I haven't been chosen for anything, not yet. And I really, really hope it stays that way, because I don't want to go anywhere.

[It's very reassuring, Giles, yes.]

[waitress]

I've seen worse. At least ~slayertude's short, sweet, and to the point. Also, readable, which goes a long way in this hobby -- or so my keyboardist claims.

[slayertude]

Yeah, I guess so. There's way worse names out there, apparently.
