We got some more of the missing back. Buffy, Anya and Cordy. I was the one who took Cordy aside and told her about Gunn. We went for a walk and I told her. I wasn't sure what to expect from her. First she was sort of shocked, then angry, then she cried. I don't think I've ever actually seen Cordy cry before. It was a little unnerving. I did my best to be a comfort, but Cordy's not really the type that takes it very well. We wound up sitting at the little playground for a while and she had her head on my shoulder. We didn't talk much after that. Then we went back, and she went inside, and I stayed outside. I hope she's going to be alright. I guess if I expected anyone to be alright it'd be Cordy, but still. I'm still thrown by the crying. Then there's avoiding Willow. I still don't know what to say to her. I've been hovering around the edges of everyone here. I talked to Faith again, too. Suggested she take a bit of a break. I think her main problem is she doesn't know how to be herself. I think she's been playing a part for so long that she lost how to not play pretend 24-7. I don't know if she'll take the advice or not. I hope she does, though, it would be good for her.
Other than that I'm thinking about going back to L.A. Helping Spike out. Since Buffy's back here, and Willow, that leaves this place pretty well covered, but I'm not so sure L.A. is. I called and left a message for Spike, telling him to call me back with a heads up on the sitch there.
