I only heard about it starting a few days ago -- if I'd known that it existed I would have ordered....
This is where I am, too. Is anyone making copies? I'd pay for shipping and materials.
And I myself will be wearing pink taffeta as chenille would not go with my complexion.

Cow critters are kewl. Just ask me.
Hey there everyone -
I'm hoping for some help finding a fic. Buffyverse. Fairly short. Posted more than two years ago. Third person OC POV - at least, for the section I'm remembering. Faith is in a mental hospital/lockup, and is being observed by one of the nurses/guards. What made the fic memorable was a kick at the end, as Faith is going in for some fairly radical head-warping treatment.
(I'm hesitant to say more because of spoiling the fic, but if it's needed/okay with everyone I will.)
(cofax, is this the right thread? Many apologies if I posted in the wrong place, and please point me in the right direction.)

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Yeap, you're in the right place.
Hossgal, that fic you're talking about sounds like it may be Rowan's The Twelfth Sister. Its sequel linked at the bottom of the page (The Twelfth Sister Revisted) is narrated by an OC, although in first person and not third person.
Even if these are not the stories you're looking for, I'd recommend them to anyone--they pack hell of a wallop, even after three years.

Yes, Twelfth Sister Revisted is *exactly* the one I was thinking of. Thank you ever so.
(And I thought it was first person, and then couldn't remember...my poor brain.)
Thanks again

So yesterday I went to go see that new ensemble movie "Love Actually." Very interesting plot for a movie, a bit Brit-centric but entertaining. Lots of bigger actors were in the movie. As an aside, which of these actors that appeared in this movie would be good to model a Watcher after in a fanfic?
Colin Firth, Liam Neeson, Billy Bob Thornton, Alan Rickman, Bill Nighy, and Rowan Atkinson (:

Always Anti-fascist!
Yeah. But I could see Firth as one as well...kind of impatient or tempermental but with lots of ability.

Rickman makes the most sense IMHO.
Clearly Watchers wouldn't be all British. I thought Chow Yun Fat would be a good one. Vincent D'Onofrio of Law & Order: CI would be fitting as well. And borrowing from a post I put on the Angel thread, Christopher Lee would make a lethal "Dark Side of the Force" Watcher.
Do you see the ears of the plot bunny? I do, I do!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'd actually love to see Billy Bob as a watcher, meeting up with Quentin Travers.

Sen. Fred Thompson! Cynical Southern Republican Watcher!
Billy Bob Thornton would be very interesting, though.
