come wander through the BuffyVerse...| Angel: can't read my mind. next time just ask. from Earshot (Season 3) | Next Clip in Episode |
BUFFY: Oooh sorry. Sorry about the daytime. I just ducked out of school and that's when they have it. Um...you look good. I mean, I, I know I saw you last night, but sometimes things can change really quick. I mean really quick. Listen to me. I'm talking like Faith. You know, not that she was so bad to have around... You know, before the evil... You know, I think she was hurting a lot. And some people, protective type people, might be drawn to that I guess... Well, the thing about Faith-
ANGEL: You can't get into my mind.
BUFFY: How did you...why not?
ANGEL: It's like the mirror. The thoughts are there, but they create no reflection in you. You got the aspect of the demon.
BUFFY: Yeah, Giles doesn't know how long it's gonna last. It's OK, a little headachy, but...
ANGEL: You don't have to play games with me Buffy. Ever.
BUFFY: Well, you're not exactly Joe-here's- what-I'm-thinking.
ANGEL: So ask me.
BUFFY: Oh, but that woulda made sense.
ANGEL: What do you wanna know about? Faith? How I felt kissing her, pretending to have no soul? Watching you suffer?
BUFFY: Well, since you bring it up...
ANGEL: I hated hurting you, more than I could stand.
BUFFY: Look, the thing about Faith, I'd understand. You know, she has, you know, that whole bad girl thing working for her.
ANGEL: Kissing her meant nothing. I don't want a bad girl. I've done that before. I've lived a long time Buffy, and I'm past that. I've been with dozens of girls like her. More.
BUFFY: Oh this honesty stuff is fun.
ANGEL: I mean, there's no comparison. In two-hundred-forty-three years, I've loved exactly one person.
BUFFY: Ohh...it is me right?
ANGEL: Next time, just ask.
BUFFY: Ok.
ANGEL: And Buffy, be careful with this gift. A lot of things that seem strong and good and powerful, they can be painful.
BUFFY: Like say, immortality?
ANGEL: Exactly, I'm dying to get rid of that.
BUFFY: Funny.
ANGEL: I'm a funny guy.
