52nd Slay [Video]

[whattingawhat]

[Unbeknownst to Buffy, Dawn did a spell, and because of this spell she is painfully happy. The video screen shows her with a smile that's stretched from ear to ear. Underneath the blinding brightness, she looks tired, exhausted from the sheer effort of being happy. When she speaks, her voice is annoyingly chipper, like it's stretched too thin, too

[ a LONG SILENCE from passersby. ]

Man, I thought you were serious for a second.

[whattingawhat]

What do you mean? Why wouldn't I be serious? How can you not like the curses?

[aettir]

... Iiiii dunno about that. Some things seriously aren't meant for human knowledge.

[whattingawhat]

Disagreeing. The more you know is power or knowledge is the more you know or...something about knowing and power and it's a good thing to...know.

ulp, holidays kind of took me out. /o\ repick?

[aettir]

Looking at everything that gets stuck up on the network, the power you get'd have to be pretty messed up.

[whattingawhat]

So this an absolute power corrupts absolutely thing? [Clearly she's not following.] I think I'm corruption free. Or mostly corruption free.

[aettir]

It's a "knowing too much'll make you blind" thing! How long have you been here, anyway?

[whattingawhat]

Ooooookay. A year and a half. Why?

[aettir]

Wha-and you still haven't gotten hit by any messed-up curses? Seriously?

[whattingawhat]

So many messed up curses you can't even count them. What does this have to do with anything though?

[aettir]

Just that, if they're screwed up and you know they're screwed up, you probably don't need anybody else seeing 'em!

[whattingawhat]

Oooookay. Glad we got that out of the way?

[aettir]

... youuuuu're not seeing what that's gotta do with anything, huh.

[whattingawhat]

Sorry. Much with the no.

[aettir]

Guess it's like-what's so super about knowing messed-up stuff?

[whattingawhat]

It's not that I want to know messed up stuff. It's that it doesn't make me sad?
