raze
i'll
always
remember
her
as
the
pink
gummy
bear
from
"robot
chicken
".
i
don't
say
that
to
dismiss
her
work
in
"harriet
the
spy"
or
"buffy
the
vampire
slayer". "
the
body
"
and
everything
that
came
after
made
it
clear
what
a
resonant
actress
she
could
be
.
those
quiet
scenes
of
her
with
the
buffybot
in
the
two
-part
season
six
opener
sock
me
right
in
the
gut
no
matter
how
many
times
i've
seen
them
.
when
i
heard
she
died
today
,
the
first
thing
i
did
was
say
, "
what_the_fuck
?"
not
in
my
head
.
out
loud
.
and
then
i
guess
my
mind
latched
onto
the
memory
of
her
as
an
anthropomorphic
piece
of
screaming
soft
candy
because
it's
always
made
me
laugh
.
not
a
lot
of
things
are
capable
of
doing
that
these_days
.

...
nr
when
i
saw
her
name
as
part
of
a
"
BREAKING
"
news
story
,
my
heart
began
to
sink
,
but
i
thought
i
might
be
assuming
wrong
since
she's
so
young
,
until
i
read
on
.
i
grew
up
with
her
on
my
tv
as
buffy's
sister
dawn
.
i
hope
she's
at
peace
.
