This was just the most incredible Cornertime yet, thank you both for this fabulous piece. And Kismet, honestly, I don't know why you should have felt nervous, as I've told people for many many months now you have a fabulous talent, and what a joy it is to see it returned to the Community. (sniffle) Promise you'll do it some more from time to time, huh? Oh, and hey, just look what a fabulous response thresd you got going here, just like the good old days! I.. I.. I can't help it, I feel a song coming on... (oh hush, don't ruin a good set-up huh)... I used to have a pretty good ear, feel free to correct any of these lines I may have gotten wrong though..... and a one and a two ... I touch the fire and it freezes me, I look into it and it's black, Why can't I feel, My skin should crack and peel, I want the fire back! Now through the smoke she calls to me, To make my way across the flame, To save the day, Or maybe melt away, I guess it's all the same. So I will walk through the fire, Coz where else can I turn, I will walk through the fire and let it -- The torch I bear is scorching me, Buffy's laughing I've no doubt, I hope she fries I'm free if that bidch dies! I better help her out. Coz she is drawn to the fire, some people -- She will never learn, And she will walk through the fire and let it -- Will this do a thing to change her, Am I leaving Dawn in danger, Is my slayer too far gone to care? What if Buffy can't defeat it? Beady eyes is right we're needed, Or we could just sit around and glare. We'll see it through It's what we're always here to do, So we will walk through the fire. So one by one they turn from me, I guess my friends can't face the cold. What can't we face But why I froze Not one among them knows When we're together? And never can be told! She came from the grave much graver So one by one First he'll kill her then I'll save her They come to me Everything is turning out so dark The distant redness Going through the motions As their guide No I'll save her then I'll kill her So what they'll find is I think this line is mostly filler What they have is mine What's it going to take to strike a spark? It's what they have inside! She will come These endless days are To Meeeeeee! Finally ending in a blaze! And we are caught in the fire, The point of no return, So we will walk through the fire And let it buuuuuu-urn Let it buuuuuu-urn Let it BU-UUUURRRRNNNN!!! SHOWTIME! heh heh heh "If all machines were to be annihilated at one moment, so that not a knife nor lever nor rag of clothing nor anything whatsoever were left to man but his bare body alone that he was born with, and if all knowledge of mechanical laws were taken from him so that he could make no more machines, and all machine-made food destroyed so that the race of man should be left as it were naked upon a desert island, we should become extinct in six weeks. A few miserable individuals might linger, but even these in a year or two would become worse than monkeys." (Samuel Butler, "Erewhon")
