You didn't tell me there were entendres.
Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

The sound effects vary from time to time and Immortal to Immortal, but I don't remember an Immortal identifying another without visual contact.
So, yeah, I'd say fanon.
New Immortals experience the buzz differently, though. It's painful and distressing, and usually played like someone coming down with a migraine and a case of schizophrenia at the same time.

I can't say I'm thrilled by the notion of ita jumping out of a dark alley and lopping my head off the next time I have a migraine.
Well, when I'm suffering the migraine that might not seem so bad, actually...

If ita takes out all the Buffistas with migraines, she's going to have Quickenings for *weeks*. Not to mention major airline bills.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Do you think Quickenings hurt? I don't want extra pain.
But if the tradeoff is repercussion free decapitation...it might even out.

Well, there's the part where you're getting electrocuted, but I'm pretty sure Peter Wingfield always played a Quickening like an orgasm.

Yes! Nose-painting and flirting in Russian and manhandling and capers!
