Love keeps her in the air when she ought to fall down. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard. I'm the one who brings about the thought-pocalypse. I'm a rogue demon hunter now. Magic's all balderdash and chicanery. I've seen the best and the worst of you. Uh, hey, I got a idea. Instead of us hanging around playing art critic 'til I get pinched by the man, how's about we move away from this eerie-ass piece of work, and get on with our increasingly eerie-ass day. How's that?

It's like somebody slaughtered an Abercrombie and Fitch catalog. Nobody could do that much decoupage without calling on the powers of darkness. I'll never leave. Not even if you kill me. Well, excuse me, Mr. I-spent-the-sixties-in-an-electric-Kool-Aid-funky-Satan-groove! Sweetie, if he had a tussle with that Sasquatch, we'd be in the dirt right about now, scooping up the Captain's teeth. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after. I don't want to use the word genius, but I'd be ok if you wanted to. That girl will rain destruction down on you and your ship.

Scenario: We raise Buffy from the grave. She tries to eat our brains. What gives you the right to suck face with your demon lover again?

Since when do they have orgies, and why aren't I on the mailing list? The gentlemen are coming by. The human mind is like Van Halen; if you just pull out one piece and keep replacing it, it just degenerates. I am obsolete. This must be what old people feel like, and Blockbuster. When I kiss you, you don't wake up from a deep sleep and live happily ever after. What did I say to you about barging into my shuttle? They've got those hoppy legs and twitchy little noses. In their resting state, our actives are as innocent and vulnerable as children. From now on, we're gonna have a little less ritual, and a little more fun around here!

Sarcastic? Unfeeling? British? I would appreciate it if one person on this boat would not assume I'm an evil, lecherous hump. Well, I'm sure I'm in serious need of some moral spankitude, but guess who's not qualified to be my Rabbi? This may come as a shock, but I'm actually not very good at talking to girls. I find it a bit sad that you think of yourself as a candidate for anyone's fantasy. No, Angel, it's not you.

I love what you are, what you do, how you try. You could, uh, could have, like, a world without shrimp, or with, you know, nothing but shrimp. From now on, we're gonna have a little less ritual, and a little more fun around here! Well, excuse me, Mr. I-spent-the-sixties-in-an-electric-Kool-Aid-funky-Satan-groove!

I brought you some supper but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped: sin and hellfire, one has lepers. What, you think this isn't real just because of all the vampires, and demons, and ex-vengeance demons, and the sister that used to be a big ball of universe-destroying energy? You're really campaigning for bitch-of-the-year, aren't you?

I'm the one who brings about the thought-pocalypse. I just don't see why everyone's always picking on Marie-Antoinette. Anyone in this much pain prays, or at least curses.

But I haven't spent any money! I was all... dead and frugal. You're really campaigning for bitch-of-the-year, aren't you? If the apocalypse comes...beep me! Magic's all balderdash and chicanery. Planet's coming up a mite fast. This distress call wouldn't be taking place in someone's pants, would it? Well, excuse me, Mr. I-spent-the-sixties-in-an-electric-Kool-Aid-funky-Satan-groove!
