or am I just reading into Courtney’s character design to much?
Probably; she certainly didn't act much like Joyce... OK, possibly 17-year-old Joyce from "Band Candy" I guess.
you’d think someone on the table would’ve kicked him under the table at least once?
You're right, he shouldn't have spilled the beans so easily; but having it play out in the logical way would have required a) Giles actually suspecting something, and b) less panels to spend on Courtney. Is that something you'd want on your conscience? Huh?
’m not sure how anybody else felt about this comment but it just felt to me like kick to the hind quarters for Dawn
Preaching to the choir, baby. Everyone's lack of reaction to Dawn's situation, and Buffy's in particular, is one of the things I dislike most about this - that, and the fans reacting like Dawn only got what was coming to her. But hey, in the next issue she'll turn into a puppet, I'm sure that'll be a scream.
