Quick question: I'm in a Buffyverse RPG on Livejournal (Dear God, there are more nerd points associated with that sentence than I ever thought possible) and I need to double check a bit of continuity.
Have Buffy and Lindsey ever met?
Willow: Yes. Hi. You must be Angel's handsome, yet androgynous, son. Connor: It's Connor. Willow: And the sneer's genetic. Who knew?
'A Hole in the World'
Buffy and Angel 1: BUFFYNANGLE4EVA!!!!!1!
Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Nope.

Nope.
That was my thought, too, but it's nice to have it confirmed.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman
I don't think so. The one time that Buffy was in LA, W&H was not part of the ep at all.

Well, she was there twice technically, but she only remembers one of those times. However, while W&H were involved in the Faith episodes, I don't think they were around by the time Buffy showed up.
She did meet Kate in that episode, though.

Yep! That's actually proving relevant in the game, too.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
She remembers being there that other time too, just for like 10 minutes.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
I think that Jenny Calendar hit me the hardest. It was so unexpected, and so cruel. I think that it was really the first time that the death that surrounded them really touch
Wash's death scene shocked me completely out of the movie, out of the narrative, out of the 'verse. I've come to accept that this is how Whedon wanted the story to go. I still don't believe Wash is gone. I haven't rewatched Serenity on dvd more than once to make sure the disc was okay. I rewatch Firefly 2-3 times a year. I'm sure Firefly would have reached the same conclusion as Serenity, but it would have been organic and believeable, at least for me. There are many things to like about the movie and more to appreciate. Loss of character agency for most of the cast and Wash's death overbalance those positive things for me. I can't deal with that character death in context, because it never feels earned to me.
I completely concur with these and couldn't put them any better.

In a weird way, Wash's death never really got me - it didn't feel real for precisely that reason, and so it really doesn't resonate the way it should.
