Buffy quickly triggers her bracelet, doing a fast broadcast the moment she sees Ashley rounding the corner.

"Heeey guys, Ashley seems to have lost her mind here."

Backing up, backing up. Making sure she's not going to end up with her back up against a wall.

"And she's got her claws out. I'm pretty sure I can keep her busy for awhile, but I'm not really feeling the urge to die again. So, you know, c'mon and give a girl a hand, 'k?"

The broadcast stays open, and Buffy's in a fighting stance, waiting for the on-rush of claws.
