Layout Provided By FreeCodeSource.com - Myspace LayoutsI was born to Anthony and Jessica Harris in Sunnydale, California. My dad once tried to sell me to some Armenians. Anthony (sometimes referred to as 'Tony') is a self-pitying drunk who in a nightmare sequence, tore out my heart. Jessica is a fragile mess without a stove; her culinary repertoire includes a "famous phone call to the Chinese place." She's known to neglect me and appear cheerful in front of strangers as an attempt to cover the true nature of her miserable life. We are Episcopalians. My uncle, Rory, is an alcoholic taxidermist who claims to have invented Velcro. Every Christmas, I sleep outside to avoid my family's drunken arguments. Neither parent is happy with their marriage, but they have stayed together for decades. When I was thirteen, I attended Willow's bat mitzvah, where my parents drank to excess. My family is unreliable, abusive, and the main source of my insecurities. They appeared at me and Anya's aborted wedding. I briefly dated my best friend Willow Rosenberg, but we broke up over a stolen Barbie when we were five. At my sixth birthday party, which Willow attended, my parents hired a clown who chased me, resulting in my coulrophobia (a fear of clowns). I overcame this phobia. When I did not get a toy firetruck for my seventh birthday, the house next door caught fire. I saw real firetrucks then and believe Willow started the fire so I could see the firetrucks. Me and Willow developed a mutual dislike of our snobby classmate Cordelia Chase, which led us to form the "We Hate Cordelia Chase" club, of which I was the treasurer. I meet Buffy Summers on her first day at Sunnydale High. I overhear her bizarre conversation with Rupert Giles in the school library and lose my best male friend Jesse McNally to vampires. I take the view that "vampires are bad," and am reluctantly forced to stake my former friend. Following Jesse's death, I become a wisecracking sidekick of the Scooby Gang, often annoying those around me, including Angel and the more uptight Giles. I soon develop a crush on Buffy, but it is not reciprocated; because of this, I am jealous of Angel and unsupportive of Buffy's relationship with him, although I appeared to be just as worried about him as the other Scoobies. I save Buffy's life by administering CPR after she is bitten by the Master and left to drown in a pool of water. I almost kisse Willow, but we are rudely interrupted by a vampire; when Buffy shows up and kills the vampire, I forget about Willow and return my attentions to Buffy. I gradually begin a turbulent and ambiguous relationship with Cordelia after we are thrown together in several life-or-death situations. The military knowledge I acquire - thanks to a spell enables Buffy to defeat the Judge, a supposedly invulnerable demon. When being seen with me costs Cordelia her position among Sunnydale High's most elite clique, she dumps me on Valentine's Day. I retaliate by coercing Amy Madison to cast a love spell, which misfires: for a few hours, until the spell is broken, I finds myself irresistible to every female (human and vampire) in sight, except Cordelia, who, realizing how much I love her, reunites with me in defiance of her former friends. My interest in Willow revives. We kiss and play footsie. We kiss passionately and are almost caught by Giles. our final liaison leads to Cordelia's near-fatal injury and Anyanka's arrival. Unable to forgive my infidelity, Cordelia unceremoniously dumps me, whom she labels "The Zeppo", mocking me for being useless compared to my more powerful friends. Attempting to prove her wrong, I embark on an adventure with a group of zombies led by tough guy Jack O'Toole, losing my virginity to rogue Slayer Faith Lehane in the process. However, when O'Toole and his friends try to blow up Sunnydale High, I single-handedly put an end to their plan. Later, I was asked to the Prom by Anya Jenkins, formerly the vengeance demon Anyanka. I lead Sunnydale High's students in a war against ascending demon Mayor Wilkins and his vampire army. My inferiority complex and feelings of isolation increase when I choose not to enroll in college with my friends. Instead, after graduating from high school, I set out on a cross-country trip inspired by Jack Kerouac's On the Road that ends when my car breaks down (having not made it out of Southern California). Returning to Sunnydale, I move into my parents' basement, for which I had to pay rent, and take a series of odd jobs as a food vendor, a bartender, a phone-sex operator, and a deliveryman. After much persuasion, I had sex with Anya and we begin dating. Initially, my interest in Anya is purely sexual, but my feelings for her intensify and we fall in love. I give Buffy my "heart" in the spell that defeats Adam. I mature significantly, pursuing a more stable career in carpentry and construction work, and moving into my own apartment with Anya. Nonetheless, the infamous vampire Dracula is able to hypnotize me into briefly becoming his willing manservant. Once freed from the thrall (and demanding Where is he? Where's the creep that made me into a spider-eating man-bitch!), I voice resentment for the unfortunate mishaps that often afflict me, citing my previous bout of the funny syphillis, and complains that I was tired of being everyone's butt monkey. After being hit by the demon Toth's Ferula Gemina, I was split into two separate beings; one displaying my strengths and one displaying my weaknesses. I defend Willow and Anya equally from Anya's ex-boyfriend, Olaf the Troll, despite being ordered to choose between them. Shortly before going into battle with the hell-goddess Glory, I ask Anya to marry me should we survive. I was beginning to have doubts about my future with Anya. Hoping for a happy ending, I summon the demon Sweet to turn Sunnydale into a living musical, which goes horribly wrong when people start bursting into flames as well as song. My fears over marrying Anya are made worse by a visit from a demon pretending to be my future self, showing me a bitter future trapped in a marriage similar to my parents'. Although the vision is later revealed to be false, I admit to having doubts beforehand and leave a heartbroken Anya at the altar. When Willow turns evil after her girlfriend Tara is killed, my love for my childhood friend melts her hardened heart, and saves the world. I struggle with my feelings for Anya and suffer a devastating injury. When Buffy's sister Dawn mistakenly believes herself to be a Potential Slayer, I empathize with her disappointment over not being the one in the spotlight. Despite admitting that we still love each other, me and Anya finally break up for good, but continue to have the odd fling in times of crisis. I had my left eye gouged out by the evil preacher Caleb, and begin wearing an eyepatch. In the final battle against the First Evil, Anya is killed by a Bringer's sword, and her body remains in the new Sunnydale High's ruins as the empty town is swallowed by the earth. Andrew Wells, whom she had fought alongside, comforts me by telling me that Anya had died saving my life. I reply by saying, "That's my girl. Always doing the stupid thing." I was in Africa, rounding up Potential Slayers for Buffy. I later spent some time under the thrall of Dracula again, as his manservant. I was summarily rescued by Buffy and two newly-activated Slayers. I lead Slayer "central command" in Scotland. Buffy describes me as her "Watcher," a description I dispute. From Slayer central command, I view my operatives on a large screen as well as monitoring the progress of several computer-based operatives, psychics, and neophyte witches under my command. I talk to my Slayers through earpieces in an Oracle or Nick Fury-style role. I remain in contact with Andrew and Giles, and maintain a close relationship with Buffy, Willow and Dawn. I begin to date the Slayer Renée, but am devastated when she is killed on a mission in Japan; my friendships with Buffy, Willow, and Dawn remain strong, although I am less comfortable around Dracula, who seems to consider me his friend.A Whole New World - Sweet 202
