Buffy ficlet
100-word ficlet. SPOILERS for the 5th season of Buffy.
Hateful Memories
She cuts herself, she screams names at teachers, she burns her diaries and runs away from home. Nothing will ever be right again.
Weeks later they're watching TV, when she muses, seemingly at random: "Do you remember Ted? How we despised him?"
Buffy snorts. "Sure. What about it?"
"I wasn't there. You must have been loathing him all alone."
And Dawn smiles at her big sister. "Good for you."
She'll be pursued and kidnapped, she'll be ritually cut and bled, she's going to lose mother and sister. But right now, for this brief moment, the universe feels okay once more.
