Rearview [Buffy gen...whee!]

written for fantas_magoria Welcome to the Hellmouth week. Whee! Hopefully I can use this as an excuse to stir the Buffyverse juices :)

Title: Rearview
Author: Mel (thatotherperv)
Episode: Welcome to the Hellmouth
Length: 550 words
Rating: PG-13ish, mostly gen
Summary: Buffy looks back on her first day at Sunnydale High. (sort of literally)

( There was something Buffy never told her friends about Heaven. It was so embarrassingly cliché, and anyway, she'd never been the type of girl to go to the movies alone and spoil the ending for everybody else. )

Favorite thing I never noticed before in this ep:

My mom doesn't even *get* out of bed anymore. And the doctor says it's Epstein-Barr. I'm like, pleeease! It's chronic hepatitis, or at least chronic fatigue syndrome. I mean, *nobody* cool has Epstein-Barr anymore.
—Cordy, being smarter than she wanted to be…and still a snotty bitch about it.

one of these days, my head is gonna roll away....

so I'm on my way up to work to get some stuff done before my boss returns tomorrow, because I sorta kinda took an unscheduled vacation while she was gone last week. surprise! haha. anyway, I hear this local radio ad. for a furniture sale. and I'm confused, because the ad opens with:

"Hello, I'm Warren Buffet."

and when I *realize* it's a local furniture store ad, I'm all confused. I'm all, when did Warren Buffet start doing radio spokesmanship? and, damn, that must be a good sale, because Warren Buffet is a tight-fisted sonuvabitch. and also, he doesn't sound as old as I thought he was.

and that's when I realized. it's *a* Warren Buffet.

not THE Warren Buffet.

*facepalm*

god, man, I'm dense. because yes, Warren Buffet needed the extra cash from celebrity product plugs.
