Buffy: "Helpless"
Angel: I saw you before you became the Slayer.
Buffy: What?
Angel: I watched you, and I saw you called. It was a bright afternoon out in front of your school. You walked down the steps... and...and I loved you.
Buffy: Why?
Angel: 'Cause I could see your heart. You held it before you for everyone to see. And I worried that it would be bruised or torn. And more than anything in my life I wanted to keep it safe... to warm it with my own.
Buffy: That's beautiful. Or taken literally, incredibly gross.
Angel: I was just thinking that, too.

Emirates Airlines Festival of Literature!
Very excited - will be going to see Charlie Higson tomorrow night. He’ll be talking about “the pains and pleasures of writing horror”. That sounds a little dirty at first, but it should be fun.
