But is that universal to Slayers, or just something Buffy devised for herself? Or is it a code that she'd be willing to ignore if the prize was big enough - and a code that other Slayers might even think is so much pious holier-than-thou crap?
"People need us to survive. In the balance? Nobody's gonna cry over some random bystander who got caught in the crossfire."
The one with no soul and a big ol' yen for torture
How do we jump from "Warren's a magically animated living dead creature" to "Warren has no soul"? (Not that his soul was all that impressive a specimen even before he died).
Anyway, I'm not saying Warren's not really a monster; just that in others' perspective, maybe Buffy's the same. Worse, even, because a skinless thing only inspires revulsion, but Buffy is charismatic and beautiful and has shiny hair, and can inspire other people to follow her. She's by far the bigger threat to humanity.
