Potential rantings

Dec 19, 2004 17:26

L.A? My kind of town. There's always some fun to be had. Movies, celebrities, vampires... werewolfs... lawyers. I always thought this place was glamorous, you know? When really? Not so much. Then again, it sure beats sitting in the Watchers Council reading books or training to be something that I might never be. Slayer. I'm sure you've heard the word. Buffy Summers. Faith. Actually got a chance to meet Summers back in February, so unimpressed. Faith, I've never met. Read a lot about her though. She's really abused her power since she was called, now if that was me? I'd use my kick-ass Slayer skills to help people, not kill them.

Well, yeah... I do work for an evil law firm, but it's not like they've asked me to be their assassin or anything. I've actually become a really productive bodyguard (except for that one incident with some broken ribs). I gotta tell ya', doing a slayers work without the super healing? There's bound to be injuries. I just... is it morally right for me to be working here? I'm sure my Watcher would have a thing or two to say, if he could contact me. I think the Watchers Council has just given up on me, called me a rogue. Sure, I'm not the first to be called that, but I'm not easily corrupted either.

It's like... they've just given up on me. Am I that much of a lost cause? Anyone in my position, anyone called a potential slayer (but not actually being one) would have got the hell out of there. They're saying, "you have potential to be a great warrior", and what I'm hearing is, "you could have the power, or it might be given to someone more worthy". Fuck that. I'm doing a lot more good here then I ever did at the Watchers Council, and hey, if my boss happens to be my on-again-off-again girlfriend, who am I to complain?
