snick_backupJust finished "Graduation," parts I and II. I'll have deeper thoughts anon, but for now:
I've seen reference before to the Faith/Buffy Slayer dream in graduation, in which Faith mentions Dawn. ("Little Miss Muffet.")

we sleep. But, especially if we're
going to vaporize or something
on graduation day? We should
be able to have a little prom-y fun.
One night of glory; not too much to ask.
