“So, what is this exactly?” Buffy Summers asked her new Watcher, coolly. “Some new test to see how powerful I am with the whole slayer thing going on? Cause if you want to find out if I can fly, I’ll tell you now – I can’t. It must have something to do with the ‘no feathers’ thing. Or – or was there something else wanted to test me for?
“Disease? Mental illness? Suicidal tendencies? Vampirism? Any of the above?” She paused and stared at the weedy man in front of her who was gaping at her, obviously overwhelmed by her outburst. He was dressed in a stuffy plaid suit that, to the Slayer, appeared to be from some other time era way back in the age of the dinosaurs.
As Buffy watched, he reached up to readjust his glasses, wiping them clean with the edge of his coat pocket before placing them back on his nose and gaping over at her some more.
“Um…hello? Watcher-man? You okay there?” Buffy prompted him, deciding that unless she did something to snap him out of his staring trance, they’d be spending an awful long time together doing the equal to zilch, where zilch included gaping and staring and looking at each other strangely. As fun as it sounded, Buffy had plans for the night to meet up with Willow and Xander at the Bronze.
The Watcher finally nodded to her, slowly and unsure of himself. “Yes…uh…tomorrow. I’ll see you here promptly at 8 am.”
“For tests?” Buffy asked derisively.
“For tests,” the Watcher confirmed with a weak nod.
“Okay, then. I’ll see you then.” Buffy flashed him an amused smile and hurried outside, leaving the man to stare at her retreating back. As she disappeared from sight, a question formed in his mind.
Was Buffy the one who was going to be tested or was he?
