Buffy the Vampire Slayer Take Two

Amy was a little uncertain about joining your study group on the supernatural, but once you explained why she was in for it. She even ended up asking Giles if there were any magic charms that could help protect against such things. Giles said he'd look into it, so that's a possibility you can look forwards to seeing how it pans out.

You are really worried about Angel being a vampire. You do your best to push Giles to help you go through the Watcher journals to learn more about him. Unfortunately all you really learn was that he was terrifying until the point when he vanished. There was no explanation given at all, just him dropping off the radar. It was extremely suspicious as far as you were concerned, but Buffy was in love and Willow was cheerfully cheering on her friend's romance. You tried to tell Willow why that was a bad idea, but she was completely stuck on the idea of them being star crossed lovers.

One of Angel's old vampire buddies attacked Buffy's mom. Angel killed her, but it seemed like a clear sign that Angel brings danger to you. Buffy seems convinced that somehow Angel is a good vampire, even if there's no proof of why he would suddenly be good. You're stuck unable to change her mind on that.

You ask Giles if there's a way to disinvite vampires. Angel may be "safe", at least in Buffy's mind, but he's still a vampire that shouldn't have an open invitation to her house, at least for her mom's sake. It takes a bit of persuasion, but Buffy thankfully buys it, especially after you point out that she mostly encounters Angel outside the house anyway. In the meantime you talk to Amy, and you both quietly set up a chest in her apartment with anti vampire gear just in case. Crosses are definitely excellent wear, and you are really glad you managed to find a cheap cross pendant you can wear.

You did agree to help Giles sort through his library to digitize his books. You didn't even try to duck out of it, which was pretty good for you. You didn't really get the value of most of the books you were looking through and helping to sort, but eh. There were some interesting pictures in some at least. Definitely some valuable art of "witches". Very nice art of witches. Definitely worth helping Giles in the library. You even think you picked up some useful stuff looking at a couple books with depictions of magical artifacts. Yeah you probably didn't retain much, but knowing that such things were out there could be potentially useful. Willow was really excited to spend time with you scanning the books, and you picked up some useful tips from computer class. It was a little cool, spending time with her like that. You hadn't just hung out as the two of you in a while.

And then Willow started chatting with this guy online. And it was skeezy. You knew it was skeezy. Buffy suspected it was skeezy. Amy definitely agreed it was skeezy, and asked if it was possible to be addicted to being online like one could be addicted to magic. Which was not something you had known magic could do, and definitely something you needed to look more into once Willow got back to normal.

You weren't jealous. It wasn't jealousy. Seeing Willow happy was great. Not knowing what the guy who was after Willow was like, that was nerve wracking. What if it turned out to be a vampire like Angel? Or an ax murderer? Or something else like that? And Willow was skipping classes to spend time online talking with this guy. It wasn't right! What kind of guy that actually cared about Willow would encourage her to do something like that?

It was a relief to have Buffy agreeing and looking into things instead of brushing you off. She almost had at the beginning before starting to click in. You used some of what Willow had taught you to look up the company that Buffy had followed Dave to. A company that was supposed to be shut down, but clearly was active. Some kind of ritual sacrifice was looking more and more likely for Willow. Especially after one of the computer guys tried to lure Buffy to her death. You hated it when people messed with your people. You wanted to smack them down hard.

You finally solved who Willow was dating at least. A corruption demon scanned onto the internet. And he'd kidnapped Willow. You rushed to the old company place that Buffy had tracked one of the computer guys to, leaving Giles and Amy to work with Ms Calendar and create a ritual to trap the demon again. The place was wired, so Buffy forcing her way in wasn't working great, but you're good at improvising. You got in, and Buffy was there to kick butt. You grabbed Willow and got her out while Buffy took care of the big bad.

Willow was feeling really crushed about the entire thing. You felt bad that she'd fallen so hard. She was your sweet goofy Willow, and she thought she wasn't loveable.
