ㅤㅤㅤ❝ GET DRESSED AND GRAB YOUR FAKE ID, LARUSSO. Jolene Parton and Veronica Tomei have some business to take care of tonight. ❞

ㅤㅤㅤ❝ YOU HAVE GOT TO BE FUCKING KIDDING ME !! ❞ There's a pile of dust in front of her. ( Several piles, actually. ) But they're not all her doing. No, Sam finished them off, leaving Tory wide-eyed and entirely unsure how to react. ❝ Samantha Larusso! You kill vampires, and you can't even bother to tell me!? I thought we were friends now! ❞ Tory's being dramatic ( what's new ? ) , but she isn't sure how else to take the revelation. Well, it's not like Tory told Sam that she was a Slayer, in all fairness. Maybe it's a little hypocritical of her to act so offended, as if she also hasn't just been busted on a little vamp-staking excursion. ❝ I'm guessing you're either just super excited about the idea of stabbing the undead, or you're a Slayer, too. My money's on the first thing, but I guess tonight is full of surprises. ❞

ㅤㅤㅤ❝ IT'S GREAT THAT YOU HAVE A FATHER WHO WANTS TO PROTECT YOU. ❞ Can't say the same about her own dad, but hey, she did have Giles. He did a lot to step up where Hank Summers didn't, to the point it cost him his job. She doesn't doubt that Sam's dad would do the same in a heartbeat. But one thing Buffy had to learn in her youth is just how much your love for someone can blind you. There's some growing that the young Slayer has to do outside of her daddy's supervision, choices she needs to make on her own. ❝ But he's your father. He loves you too much to ever be fully objective here. That's not a bad thing, but there comes a time when everyone has to step out. I had to. ❞ There's a breath, and god, she didn't ever think she'd be personally stepping in when it comes to training a new Slayer one-on-one. But maybe she sees too much of herself here to walk away, especially knowing how much more dangerous things have become around here lately. ❝ Let me take you on a patrol. Just for tonight. Then you can decide if this is for you or not. Do or don't, Slay or don't Slay, I want you to have that choice. ❞ Buffy didn't.
