The lack of confidence was definitely a downer, but Melissa is sure there's a warrior-babe in Dawn just looking for a reason to get out. She's a /librarian/, right? They're like, the poster children for closet naughtiness.
"What scares you so much, Dawnnie? Is it the hood? Or is it just the people here? You're as good as every one of them, I bet. This whole mysticism bit...it's intimidating at first. It's scary as all hell because you don't know what's around the next corner. Last week, it was a run-of-the-mill ghost who just need a little help getting back to the afterlife.
This week, it's probably an imp causing trouble. Next week, it's a demon lord who wants to devour your firstborn for crossing it. The point is, you can't let 'em see you sweat. You take the punches and roll with them. Every now and then, you'll get some freak that magic doesn't really help with. That's when you make sure you've got a good knife or gun handy to help said person with their breathing problems." Melisa tells her.
"Do you know how to use a gun?" Hood asks.
