Jan. 23rd, 2006 04:47 pmanother essay, another thought
The Beljoxa's eye thing
and the fact that the First Evil was after the Scythe
the bunny thought is, maybe if 2 Slayers = First making havoc, extramany Slayers = recorporealised First. Like a balance thing? That would explain why it was after the Scythe, despite that being a Slayer only weapon. It needed Slayers.
now I look I don't reckon as the Beljoxa bit supports that though
GILES If The First has been around for all time, then why hasn't it attempted something like this before? Why now?
BELJOXA'S EYE The opportunity has only recently presented itself.
GILES Opportunity?
BELJOXA'S EYE The mystical forces surrounding the chosen line have become irrevocably altered, become unstable, vulnerable.
ANYA Something The First did?
BELJOXA'S EYE The First Evil did not cause the disruption, only seized upon it to extinguish the lives of the chosen forever.
GILES Then what has caused the disruption? What - what is responsible for letting this happen?
BELJOXA'S EYE The slayer.
ALLEY BEHIND A STRIP MALL - NIGHT Anya and Giles step back through the portal they created earlier and back into the alley where they opened it. Both are windblown.
GILES Are you all right?
ANYA (limping) Yeah, I just - I don't understand how Buffy's death mucked up the whole slayer mojo. You know, it's not like she hasn't died before.
GILES It's not because she died. The Beljoxa's Eye was quite clear about that in its enigmatic way. It's because she lives. Again. Buffy's not responsible for that.
ANYA Oh. Oh. Willow and me and Xander and Tara. We're the ones who brought Buffy back. We're - we're the reason The First is here, the reason those girls were murdered. No, it's our fault. The would would've been better off if Buffy had just stayed dead. (walks off)
It was a really dumb detour though.
