Kristen actually brought it up while we were watching Wonderfalls. And then I mentioned her idea in thread. And Tim said he'd pay half, and then he sent the first donation.
And that's how it happened.
Angel: I appreciate you guys looking out for Connor all summer. It's just—he's confused. He needs time. That's all. Fred: Right. Time, and some corporal punishment with a large heavy mallet. Not that I'm bitter.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Oh, never mind. I read that as "Whedonesque" fans. My bad.
I did the same thing at first.

Hey. New board.
In reading the Nilly praises, I got this awesome(ly horrible) idea of filking "Nilly" to the tune of "Mandy." And then imagining DB singing it.
However, I have not the brains to do it tonight. Perhaps I shall in the morning.
I don't know if I've mentioned yet how much it sucks that I'm not in L.A. this week. But I'm mentioning it again if I have. Everybody at the party have a great time without me.

Please don't. There's a reason they picked that song to make fun of.

Hey. New board.
Since when is filking bad songs a bad thing?

Hi.
I know this should probably go in the fanfiction board/forum/whatchawhoozit, but I don't know how Wonderfalls friendly that place is, and I'm wondering about interest level.
See, I'm in the process of writing a Wonderfalls fic that takes place after Karma Chameleon and after BtVS the Series, where Buffy settles in Niagara with Dawn, after shipping off a new slayer who was living there to Giles in England. So she's retired.
There'll be no vampires or anything mystical like that (well, besides the Muses); it's just Buffy in the Wonderfalls world. What I'm doing now is trying to write an episode-like story to introduce Buffy into it, and later, try to follow the series as though Buffy were a supporting character in it, like Mahandra, Jaye's family, and Eric......(Eric who I'm cutting out for various reasons *waits for furniture to be thrown*)
And if those of you reading this are going, "But he's a big part of the later episodes!"....well, that's the point. It's a challenge.
This'll be the first time I've written something other than Jossverse fic, and for a while I resisted even attempting Wonderfalls because of how well and smartly it's written (not to mention the quick wit) but then I couldn't resist. I just thought it'd be neat to bring Buffy in (and she and Jaye *were* both Chosen by something in the universe), and she's also more familiar to me, so it's like a little bit of a crutch.
Now that I've rambled, would anybody wanna see this? I've written the first, full scene so far, with other random snippets, so it's far from finished, but at the very least, I guess I'm hoping to see if I captured Wonderfalls and Jaye at all, or if I completely suck.
Thanks for reading.
Damn....that was long. My apologies.
