Buffy has been here a week and she's still gathering information about this
place. She's pretty sure that's an ongoing process here. It does help to
keep busy, to keep gathering information. It helps one to feel in control
and there's so much here that they can't control. Buffy certainly hasn't
come to terms with her powers being taken away, but she's not pissed about
it most of the time anymore.
She'd felt the same way, but Steve had insisted and she's been feeling a
little fragile lately without her powers. She's learning how to fight in
it, how to cope with the loss of her slayerness.
See, that's a good smile. What is it with guys and crooked smiles? Or maybe
Buffy is just a sucker for them. It makes her stomach feel fizzy in the
best sort of what. She's definitely glad they aren't starting off as
enemies, especially since he looks like that. Plus, he seems like a good
guy.
"Maybe?" she half agrees. "I just think they're going about it the wrong
way. Everything everyone seems to be doing is either directly harmful to
the people that live here, like the involuntary surgery and brain chips, or
it makes things more difficult for people, like the mass destruction of
property. The only one that made sense to me if that's their goal, was the
power thing, but it didn't seem to phase the computer." Buffy understands
that change sometimes requires casualties. She doesn't like it, but she
understands it. She's been responsible for enough lives that she gets it.
Her voice drops and if Alcide will let her, she'll turn him so his back is
facing the camera and she's in front of him. This way, the only view the
camera is getting of his back. She puts her hand on his shoulder and
tiptoes so that she can whisper and be certain he'll hear her. Anyone
looking at the camera, probably just thinks she's flirting. Being this
close, she's also really grateful for Lydia's citrus lotions and soaps. She
wants to smell pretty when close to a cute guy, okay? Sue her. "Yeah.
There's some genius guy working on giving us everything back. There's a lot
of us here that are missing powers. His name is Barry."
