around season three while reviewing

[hitbydestiny]

Well this sucks. I mean do you even have any idea about this? It's one thing to play pretend but this is my life, and it's not exactly a peach. You know, years ago I might have wanted to give this up but now? Let's just say that a lot's happened. So how about we stop with the games and I'll give you the facts.

1) I'm not going from Sucksville to Suckierville. It's home and it might have taken a while but I'm settled and it's nice. Without the sucking anyway.

2) You don't know what you're doing. And just because I don't always have a clue isn't the point. I've got people to help me, you're kind of just sitting there. And hoping. And this time hoping isn't the best way.

3) Did I mention that your idea sucks? Not life sucking, although I'm pretty sure that kidnapping is illegal everywhere, but it sucks. Big time. And I've got things to do, a social life to try and keep and friends. Did I mention the friends? Xander, Willow. I guess Giles is somewhere there. And my mom. And you know if you take me now I won't get to do everything that's coming and there's some pretty big stuff. You think dying once was that? I'm the Slayer, death isn't really enough apparently.

So was that convincing enough or do I need to go through the rest of my list? It's a big list. And it's not pretty. Less pretty than what you're thinking so just stop. It's safer for us all.

Optimism won't fix anything.

I finally got the nerve up and she pulled me away from my death to make me play with Pokemon.

...it wasn't so bad as you think. You'll make some nice friends there, at least. You seem the type.

[hitbydestiny]

I didn't say fix but it makes things feel better.

Pokemon? Well that's a new one, and it's got to be better than evil dead things.

Do you know where you're going yet? Some of the places are kind of creepy, but some of them are really nice.

It was. It was like being born again. A new life.

[hitbydestiny]

Some place without a name. They're very big on that home thing.

Born again. That sounds nice.

[burntforhersins]

Home... hm. It doesn't sound... familiar at all.

It was. I'm going back there soon.

I was kidding. Really anywhere I go would be soo far from it, even if it did have things that I was used to. Wow, I never thought about anywhere else like that, although I didn't think anywhere other than Earth was inhabited.

Even better. If you're happy then you know you should go for it.
