Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Oh I know. I want to know who got me and what story they picked and what did they do to it. I hope I like it.

ahahahahaha I have two, count 'em TWO, boyband AUs. Only one is posted. I need to finish that one. The other one is a conflicted angsty boyband AU. Which I'm not posting until it's done.

And to answer your question: yes.

Thanks for all the fish.

I'm a little nervous.

a) will the story I write be worse than the original?

b) will my story that gets rewritten be better than the original?

c) will it be worse?

And I don't know if b or c would bother me more. (I think I can say that a didn't happen.

B and C are tricky. I don't know which would be worse. I know that they can't change the pairings so that gives me some relief. But I dunno. I'm kind of nervous about the whole shebang.

As for A, well, since I haven't written it yet, I have no idea. But I think that the idea I came up will compliment the original nicely and that's kind of what I was going for.

Thrive to spite them

Elena---I've read the original story and your remix. Your remix is far better than the original.

I have to say that I'm glad I opted out of this. As much as I'd love to see what someone did with one of my stories, I'm sure I would have ended up with a really fantastic writer and butchered their work.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I have to admit, I didn't actually read this, but does not the summary make you laugh and laugh and laugh:

Buffy, now a retired Slayer, is employed to be Spike’s partner in pairs ice skating competition.  Angelus pursues a relationship with Cordelia Chase, a champion singles skater.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

I love it.

Is this by the guy who does all of those excerable Buffy/Angel ubers?
