Clem could be a card shark, and each week Miss Kitty would be bet and then return to him with the rest of the ,ahem, kitty.

What do we need a card shark for when we can have the Loan Shark from "Tabula Rasa" as a regular...shudder...

The cat is dead, Rayne. DEAD DEAD DEAD. Deader than the BBS, even, and he's stone cold dead.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I'm with Rayne:

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
its not like it can't cause havoc elsewhere. Anyone have an opinion?
I think a key part of its plan was massing the troops.
The first will never go away, but they severly nipped its ability to mobilise in the bud, and perhaps whatever instability allowed it to get even that far has been taken away by the mass choosing.

Ficht nicht mit Der Raketemensch!
That was my take. Also, closing the Hellmouth majorly weakens the First (even if there is one elsewhere).

I wasnt too clear on its plan anyway... when the Turok-han outnumber the human population, it gets to become flesh? So why wasn't it back when demons ruled the earth? And who makes the rules up, anyway?

Because it needed the imbalance that Buffy created?

Art Crawl!!!
Plus -- the First can no longer kill off the Slayer line so easily if all potentials have the power.
BTW Jim -- we had the ASH MI-5 last night -- really good. But I must say that if I were Tom's girlfriend I really wouldn't want him to tell my daughter the truth. I think it could only be dangerous.

Hm, that is something I hadn't considered—that the imbalance wasn't so much between good and evil, as Buffy's return to the physical realm opening the door for it to come through as well.
