And this is the part where Buffy explains Slayers, being Chosen, the whole nine yards. The narration is just putting that as a blanket statement because the story really is very, very long, and she's pretty sure that everyone here knows it. Sometimes she just gets tired of typing it.
And when Buffy finally gets around to the scythe: "The scythe is a weapon that was mystically made specifically for the Slayer. It's magic matches the kind that made us, and is more to be an extension of ourselves -- almost like a power booster. To everyone else, it feels just like a pretty awesome scythe, but to us, it feels like it's a part of us. It's also super duper powerful and can be manipulated by dark magic which means I can't just leave it in Bete Noire."
She takes a breath, before looking up at Dean. "You get all that?"
