Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

What is even happening?

I'd TOTALLY watch that movie. That should be the Buffyverse film. Okay, so we'd have to handwave some folks back to life. It's not like that's new.

move out and draw fire

My friend just finished watching the Firefly DVDs. IM'd me to say, "Dammit! Now I wish there were more! You need to feel guilty for getting me hooked on this when it's over so fast!

Oh, and I just bought Serenity."

So that's nice.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Meant to mention ages ago: we picked up a copy of EzyDVD's exclusive tin version of Serenity. The front of the tin is unfettered with quotes, or ratings and content warnings, so is well worth getting, even if you already have a copy, and even if you can't play a region 4 PAL dvd.

Oh and they've also got a Firefly tin coming at the end of this month: [link]

It's pretty sweet, even though by the end, it jumbles up so much that I wasn't sure the putative movie would have a coherent, thematic story. Nice job, regardless.

Hey. New board.

I got a coherent story, it's just so completely AU for any Universe that it made me WTF at times. Not that that's bad - I love AU.

My intrerpretation: Angel and Crew, after getting info from Andrew, decide to kill crazy-slayer/River/sometimes Faith/at least once Gwen (I loved the meshing). Buffy is all Dawn-style protective for... some unexplained reason. Spike abandons Angel-and-crew for Buffy, and they have a battle of the badasses. Angel wins, captures the slayer, but.... ZOMG THE TWIST CAN THEY SAVE CRAZY-SLAYER?

It'd be long, but it could be pretty good. Definitely more a Buffyverse story than Firefly-verse, though.

Why white font about stories all of which bowed two or three years ago?

I think it would be better without River; she's not part of the 'verse. I don't think her presence in the Buffyverse would hurt the Buffyverse, but I think it feels like a violation of a Firefly character, and its 'verse.

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

Just ran into Sean Maher at the grocery store. He was very beautiful and I managed to chat without making an extraordinarily large jackass out of myself while thinking, "gosh, he's beautiful."

I said, "wow, you look beautiful!"

Which I say to boys I know well who look beautiful, but am unsure if it's a weird thing from an almost complete stranger to say.

Surely, he's used to it by now.
