WILLOW Anya, you're a vengeance demon. Just teleport!
ANYA Well, as it turns out, teleporting isn't a right, it's a privilege. I withdrew a vengeance spell last week, and this is my punishment. I can only teleport for official business. I have to file a flight plan and everything.
WILLOW Oh. I'm sorry. That must be hard.
ANYA Yeah, it bites a pretty big one. And the vengeance itself, i-it's not as fulfilling as I remember.
WILLOW Really? 'Cause I got the impression that you enjoyed—you know, inflicting.
ANYA Well, causing pain sounds really cool, I know, but turns out it's really upsetting. Didn't use to be, but now it is.
