He'd lost so much over the past seven years. Jesse, his best bud. No chance to say goodbye, only time to kill the thing his friend had become.

Cordelia. His first real girlfriend. Lost through betrayal. She'd left town...and now she was in a coma. No chance to say goodbye to her, either.

He'd just started patching things up with Anya. And she had been killed. No goodbye, take three.

And so he'd lost his mind. Catatonic, in the back of the bus, he wandered among the corridors of his soul with his fallen comrades. It was better there.

I know, I'm a big meanie. But the poor guy has lost a heck of a lot over the years. I think he's earned a little time inside his own head.

I'll have to keep reminding myself that I'm at WriterCon to learn stuff. Fun, yes...but working fun.
