  • Buffy Yearbook
    Buffy, From your favorite Dingo ! Aroor ! - Devon Buffy, Sometimes I wish I knew what things would be like if you’d never come to Sunnydale. I guess we’ll never know, but knowing my luck, things would still work out crappy. - Cordelia Buffy, You’re my best friend. You know me better than anybody. And, I think, if I’d never known you, there’d be less of me to know. You’ve made me grow. Not in a getting bigger way. You know. Another way. - Willow Buffy – I have lived many years and never before had the chance to write in a yearbook. You gave me this and much more. As long as I am on this Earth, what we had lives on in me. - Angel Buff, in everyone else’s book I’m writing stuff about “all the great times we had”, but I’m not going to do that with you. We had great times, sure, but we had terrible, heart-tearing, scary times too, and these are the ones I’m gonna remember. Because those are the times when I got to know this amazing, brave girl. (That’s you, even if you didn’t get it.) And the really cool part? Even with everything that’s happened? It’s really just still starting. - Xander Buffy, thanks for all. Much remains unsaid. - Oz Buffy, I know moms don’t usually sign yearbooks, but I wanted to let you know how proud I am and how much I love you. - Mom Buffy Thank you for the talk in the tower and for everything.

Sheila studies Snyder, pops her gum, and jerks her head to the right, indicating BUFFY whom we now discover sitting next to her. Snyder smiles. SNYDER (cont'd) Well, it is quite a match between you two. Snyder opens two THICK FILES on his desk. MR. SNYDER (cont'd) On the one hand, Buffy hasn't stabbed a horticulture teacher with a trowel, yet. SHEILA I never stabbed anyone with a trowel! Sheila stabs the file in front of Snyder with her finger, he involuntarily edges back. SHEILA (cont'd) It was pruning shears. It should say pruning shears. MR. SNYDER (to Buffy) On the other hand, Sheila's never burned down a school building. BUFFY Buffy Angel Show That was never proved… the fire marshal said it could have been… mice… MR. SNYDER Mice? BUFFY Mice that were smoking? MR. SNYDER (looking at file) And the two of you seem to be tied in the class-cutting and fight-starting events. You're really neck and neck here. It's very exciting.

I'm awash in a sea of confusion. XANDER I just want to look respectable in this... considering I'm probably gonna die in it. CORDELIA 'Scuse me? XANDER I'm telling you, I woke up the other day with this feeling in my gut, I just know. There's no way I'm getting out of this school alive.
