And that is exactly what I've always maintained about the buffyverse characters but most especially of Buffy. (mourning takes time - it can take years, and buffy was certainly not expecting her mother to die. Fearing it? of course, but that is different to acceptance of the possibility.) When does Buffy get to finish grieving her mother's death, Angel's death, her own, Tara's - how do you process that body count emotionally without help?
