WILLOW: It's horrible! That's me as a vampire? I'm so evil and...skanky. And I think I'm kinda gay.
BUFFY: Willow, just remember, a vampire's personality has nothing to do with the person it was.
ANGEL: Well, actually--
(BUFFY purses her lips at him)
ANGEL (reconsidering): --that's a good point.

- Fiction Rating Key Here
- "NR" = "Not Rated"
- Authors' given ratings usually trusted, but "general audiences" is increased to FRK+ because of the original BtVS series rating. Occasional stronger ratings given when chance glances show they're needed. The "F-bomb" requires FRMA, no matter how it's used. Just covering my BFB. :-)
