Numerous Excerpts from landofthe_joss
((The Entire Thread))
My mind was still trying to get over me watching a pool just appear and then people just show up... I think the greater part of the big conversations were lost on me.
"See! This is not normal at all... this was not here and neither were those people.... are you sure there is no one else that is missing from your little wacked out time-crossing reunion is there??"
It was apparant that most of them had been here for a while, and poor Dawn who thought she found her sister.. hadn't found her at all. Which was disheartening.
"Okay.. so my brain is still bending around all of this... and I am sorry if I am slow, but you said Wesley is here?" Then my brain went a step further... when I had left well.. the lab I had just left Wesley and well there was something starting with us... I hadn't thought about it since I arrived here. "Wait... Wesley and Faith? This really isn't right at all... and Angel.. why are you with Buffy? I thought... well... I could be wrong but I thought you had feelings for Nina.. and Buffy? Last I heard Spike running off at the mouth you and him had been something..."
Then I heard the click.... it was somewhere from Anya's big speech and sure my brain was used to processing all sorts of equations.. but this well this was a bit more complex...
"Wait... okay this is not your run of the mill reunion. Okay... so I will guess that Angel... you don't even know who I am.. right? And oh.. no.. Connor. You won't know about him either. Which might be why Buffy doesn't know who Dawn is... although unless she was raised in a demon dimension too, but that doesn't make sense at all. Does someone have a pen? I think I need to start writing this stuff down..."
My brain was trying to find a pattern.. but I had a feeling there was no pattern to be found...
******
I was looking outside at Cordelia trying to piece together why she wasn't in a coma and try to remember how I knew that was Angel's son Connor it seemed like there was a gap in my head with only little pieces then all of a sudden my brain hurt.. I mean really hurt like it was a thousand nails going through it...
"Gahhhh. Aaughhghhh!!!!" I collapsed to the floor and felt warmth just above my lip, pressing my hand to the spot I removed my hand to find blood. My nose was bleeding and my head was about to explode. I saw flashes of light along with images images that I didn't remember but still felt familiar, it was horrible yet didn't feel new to me at all. When the picture show in my head stopped the pain was still there but I had all this extra stuff in my head overlapping memories and everything. It was painful.. and so insane I thought maybe I might be back on Pylea... or dead.
I just laid there letting the pain subside and all the images start to form some sort of cohesive story. I saw it all.. how could I have forgotten it.. why did it all come back at that moment... why not earlier... why right then.
I wiped the blood that was drying from my lip and sat up.
"It was Angel... he tried to save him... I remember it all now... but I don't understand why I do."
