I just talked myself out of asking an author why her story had Scott McCall possessed by a gossipy Samantha Jones from Sex and the City, calling Stiles up to breathlessly demand details about new developments in his love life. If it hadn't been by the author of one of my favorite stories in the fandom, I'd have set my keyboard on Burn Bridges and hit the send button.
Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Are you thinking of the Equalizer's son? Father? Brother?

I did a buttload of Equalizer stuff before Buffy abducted me.
edit: I've even got someone who writes me occasionally to see if I've got anything else in that verse. I love those people.

I didn't even realize. Then again, I think of the Equalizer as Edward Woodward, not whatever the character's name actually is.
On a tangent, why doesn't someone do a reboot of that property? It's ripe for another interpretation, and has a great premise.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
You know what else they could reboot? Magnum PI. And then when they start getting close to showing Robin Masters, someone could accidentally call him Charlie around three attractive, ass-kicking women.

There's a movie in the works. I think Denzel has the Robert McCall role.
