Old trusty soda machine. I push you for root beer, you give me Coke.

Willow ,'End of Days'


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.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Hmmm: Discussion topics.

Ok, what Buffy or Angel character do you think would best survive/get by on:

The Lost Island,
(Stargate) Atlantis
Veronica Mars' High School

And, Teppy, not blonde?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

What's our next Deep Thoughts for the thread?

Who is more important to Gunn, Wesley or Angel?

Alibelle told me that this one was too easy, since to her the answer was clearly Angel, but I disagree with her.

I pick Wesley. True, this is largely because I discount most of S3 on the grounds that it was Pod!Gunn and not Real!Gunn, but I do that because I never did buy that Gunn would side with Angel over Wesley.

Angel was always a boss to Gunn, not a friend. It was mutual as well. Angel’s dream of true happiness, the one that led to Angelus being set free, showed how little Gunn meant to Angel. I think Wesley was the first person who viewed Gunn as a brother in arms, and a true friend, rather than as a leader or a hired soldier. He took a bullet for Gunn, and that has to mean something.

Also, they are the OTP.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

And, Teppy, not blonde?

What, my tagline?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Yeah, Teppy.

I'm disagreeing with you, Perkins. I can't see Gunn becoming a contractor for Wes. It was Angel who brought Gunn into the broader city/fight. All the major events in Gunn's life during the series were precipitated by Angel, IMO. Brain not coming up with them at the moment, though, apart from the W&H deal

Trust my rage

What's OTP?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

One True Pairing

If I only had a brain...

One True Pairing. I.e. the couple that is Destined To Be. E.g. "Harry/Dumbledore is my OTP."

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Well, Betsy, I suppose I could get behind that, if you subscribe to the Ron is Dumbledore theory. Otherwise, we get into weird power dynamics...and I shouldn't parse the example too far, should I?

I've seen it around before - now I know. Thanks!
