So before December even hit, everyone was freaking out about all the kissing. Valentine's Day is like what? Little under three weeks away?

Does the castle decide to take a break or are you guys still reeling from your moronic decision to touch a mirror that just popped up in the lobby?

You're the one drawing that conclusion, Damon. You've made it pretty clear I don't matter, and I wouldn't dare think otherwise.

Then why do you even care enough about what I have to say to say something to me?

Damon

[luthored]

Because you still matter to me, even if I regret it. And Buffy matters to me, so I feel bad that she has to put up with your gross boasting.

[Suddenly he matters again. Uh-huh...]

You know, I hear Lithium works wonders.

[ Hey, she never said he didn't matter. She just said she loved him! And hated him. ]

Excuse me?

Lana

Memory loss, too?

Here, let me jog your memory. We talked, blah, blah, blah and I believe "I hate you" was the last thing you said to me before you tried to break my door on your way out.

You really do need to start making your mind up.

You're one to talk! You were acting all the victim, like I had wronged you somehow, waiting for me to put my heart on the floor before walking all over it oh-so-smugly with news that could have been brought up at the beginning if you weren't so vindictive. And don't worry, I don't misunderstand and think it had anything to do with me, which you like to deny so passionately. I know that it's just you, and how you are, and that's how you treat people. It was incredibly stupid of me to have thought for so long that I was different at all, and that I had some sort of influence over any of your actions. So I guess I should have said 'thank you', instead of 'I hate you'.

Thank you, Damon. My eyes are opened, and I'm a new woman.

[ She throws her journal out her window (like the mature creature she is) to keep any mean retorts he has away. At least it keeps her from further commenting on Buffy's conversation. ]
