Going back to high school after all this time sucks.

Just so you know.

I will appreciate the diploma and the raise, but I don't know if I will survive.

My dad was a drunk and an abusive asshole. Not as much to me directly. There was the screaming all the time but that was between my parents, and it was pretty clear he didn't like me ever.

I haven't missed him at all since falling through. Not even a little. Not even once.

I don't miss my mother either.

You know what's not cool?

Waiting for the axe murderer to jump out of your closet.

Yeah.

You are not pretty tough for a bomb to take down.


[Locked to Phoebe]

Where are you?

I haven't seen you around. I've been to your room. Did you escape to a beach without me? No fair. I make an awesome beach buddy. I'm lots of fun in the sun.


[Locked to friends (Anya, Buffy, Nellie, annnnd Xander needs to get out more. /DIES) ]

Okay. Missing friend has only happened four or five times before.

There's no reason to jump to conclusions here, right? You don't see a friend for days. It doesn't mean they're swallowed up by a Rift or dead.

No need to panic.

So in the future, I have a girlfriend? And she's here. I mean, she came through the Rift.

So I'm a pirate but a pirate with a girlfriend.


Also, you and I? We kissed.

The other day.

I didn't forget or anything.

I just yeah with the words.

WHO IS THIS ANYA WOMAN?

Did I really have sex with her several times in many different locations and positions?

She's not a demon, is she?

Cause we know my track record with the females that seem all interested in me.

They're demons or they're humans who have sex with me and throw me out again or they're Cordelia.

I realize that all of this could be solved if we'd had that conversation about the future and all that's happened in it. I've been on the avoidy side of talking about things, but maybe we should do that soon.

Soon as in this week.

Buffy is back.

Kind of.

She's not the same one that left, that... with Tay.

She's from four years in my future, but she's

Yeah, she's here. Again. And she's four years older, but she's still Buffy.



Also, she says that I lost my eye in her

Yeah. Future me lost an eye in the line of duty. Or something. I haven't asked for details.

[shaky hand writing ahoy!]

HELP

Too dark to read anything already written

Phoebe and I are stuck down here.

She's hurt really really bad

I didn't

There was something in her, and I was trying to get her free and I took it out. And I'm sorry. There's a lot of blood

I don't know where

Please hurry

Hey.

can I stay where you're staying? not in the same room. I'm not

Just

The same area or building.

It's the Conrad, right?

SO.

I finally figured out what the Rift did to Xander after... way too long. I thought I should make a post about it, because it is pretty significant. XD It's something that could easily not be noticed for awhile as well, but I think that it's really kicked into full swing recently so it'll be more noticeable.

Anyway, basically when you're near him, you're going to be better at whatever you're doing, whether that's fighting, some supernatural power (like super strength, elemental, etc. etc.), bowling, hell writing a paper, or really ANYTHING that is an ability.

You get better the closer you are to him so if you're touching him, you're going to be five times better at whatever the ability might be. I don't know how you touch him and fight shit but you know... God sex is going to be amazing for him from here on out. If you're not touching him but you're two feet or less away, you're looking at 3 times better. If you're within 8 feet of him, you're looking at two times better and then less the further out you go. I think roughly 15 feet around him is approximately the radius that's affected, but again, the closer you are to him, the better.
