Author's Note: Buffy drabble for the LJ sunday100 challenge. June 8's challenge: either danger or parody. I chose parody. To understand this, however, you have to have seen the original FOX promo for Firefly. It goes like this:
"Take one space cowboy (insert Mal line),
A flighty pilot (insert Wash line),
A tough guy named Jayne (insert Jayne line),
A cosmic hooker (insert Inara line),
And a girl in a box (insert River line).
Out there? Oh, it's out there."
Season 6 Promo
By Trisana McGraw
Take one embittered Slayer,
Buffy: "I touch the fire and it freezes me."
The loser who's trying to grow up,
Xander: "Nothing on earth can stop this wedding now." (See Xander walking alone in the rain.)
A tactless ex-demon,
Anya: "All you care about are orgasms!"
A witch addicted to magic,
Willow: "Bored now."
A badass vampire who wants to be loved,
Spike: "Bugger this."
A whole lot of sex,
Anya: ". . . An a cappella concert of moaning and groaning."
And a girl who should be in a box.
Dawn: "GetoutgetoutGETOUT!"
Lost? So are we. Buffy Season 6.
