An urgent situation arises

BY THE WAY, two very important things:

1) I have a new roommate. She looks like Jules! Only more like she might kick me in the face. Anyway, what can you tell me about Buffy Summers? I know you watched that show. I remember you crying over it all the time.

2) Speaking of nerdy shows with good-looking women on them, I need to know everything you know about a Dana Scully.

Do some compiling. Work the noggin. I'll be right over.

Hi, roomie!

1)...You're rooming with Buffy Anne Summer? The Chosen One? Shawn, how is that fair? I have seasons one through five on DVD, PLUS I recorded the musical episode.

And I did not cry over it all the time, Shawn. I just got a little choked up during The Gift because I am a sensitive human being. Unlike SOME PEOPLE, who were too busy doing mad libs to watch one of the greatest hours in television history.

2) ...

AGENT SCULLY IS HERE? You've met her? Did you try and tell her you were psychic? I bet she saw right through it.

Hello, Shawn's roommate! I'm Shawn's associate, Burton Guster. You can call me Gus!

You're not evil, are you?

1) Okay, be more of a nerd, please.

Just... dude, I need info, okay? No one here's seen our show (and, okay, HOW COOL IS THAT BY THE WAY???), which means no one knows the truth, and I kept my promise, so I haven't told anyone. We could totally re-open Psych here! But you know I can't do it without you.

Gus, with all the geekarrific knowledge stored in that massive cranium of yours, we could be better than ever!

2) I had a pineapple date with Dana just yesterday, and she's a lovely woman. And yes, she did question my abilities, but I'm working on that.

I wasn't the last time I checked, no.

1) I am not a nerd, Shawn. I am an intellectual, and I enjoy shows that use myth and metaphor to examine complex and pressing social issues.

(SO COOL! *virtual first pound* I always did wonder how we could afford beach front property.) You think? We'd need a new office, plus a mini-fridge, and you know I need TIVO.

...wait.

Shawn. You're asking me to use my knowledge to exploit my heroes. I don't think I can do that.

2) You...you had a date with Dana Scully?

I don't believe it. She's way out of your league, Shawn. She has UST with David Duchovny. David Duchovny.

1) Gus, you've been to MULTIPLE COMIC BOOK CONVENTIONS. There is no debate here.

(*fist pound!* Well, you were the one who was paying for it, I just always assumed you could pay for it on your... sales rep salary... okay, yeah.)

Gus, we're not exploiting anyone! We're helping! Come on, there are people here with completely amazing abilities -- do you think if I tried to help without any powers and without a badge they'd listen to a word I say? They would totally blow us off.

Think about it: when's the last time you read a comic or whatever and the totally normal guy in the background was the one to solve the case or kick bad guy butt? We're those totally normal guys, Gus! We're shaking things up! We're bucking the status quo!

2) I have no idea what that means. But yes, I did.

So you're Buffy's roommate?

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

That would be me! Shawn Spencer.

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

Hey, by the way, what's your policy on late-night movies? This is important.

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

Who? What? Have they finally decided the Bible is a work of fiction, or are we talking more of the telenovela An-hel here?

[magicbone]

um. you're rooming with Buffy.

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

That's... pretty much been the consensus, yeah.

Oh, you know that Warren guy, right?

[onewhosees.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry Buffy...this guy looks more hyper then me in high school. And that was baaaaad...

If it makes you feel any better, I got a new roomie too?

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

Cool, dude, nice to... internet-meet you. Are you a friend of Buffy's?

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

Excuse me? I'm sorry, are you jealous because your friend here is about to be part of the COOLEST ROOM-SHARING TEAM IN HISTORY?

Yeah, I thought so.

[magicbone]

skjfsk um yes. you could say that! why?

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

No reason! Just curious. Honing my skills.

[onewhosees.livejournal.com]

....riiiiiight. I'll be over here now.

Buffy? You ever need to crash at my place, my couch is open.

[magicbone]

okay then.

um by the way, I'm Jonathan. just in case.

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

I'm Shawn! Shawn Spencer.

[magicbone]

cool. um. try not to get yourself thrown out of any windows.

SHAWN DO YOU NOT KNOW ANYTHING?

Angel. Of Buffy and Angel.

He's Buffy's first love, a vampire with a soul who can't ever experience true happiness, or else he loses his soul and turns evil. Which he and Buffy weren't aware of at the time that they first knocked boots. Eventually she had to kill him and send him to hell but he got better and they resumed their relationship before realizing that their love could never be.

...Well, actually, Angel got his own spin-off, which was really underrated. Up until Cordelia slept with Connor and gave birth to a beautiful, black goddess who actually turned out to have a worm-face.

That there was freaky stuff.

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

...is... that something I should be worried about?
