Questions we're probably not supposed to ask about Twilight -- if Jasper can't control himself if Bella gets a papercut while he's standing a few feet away, how on earth does he go through a world full of adult women and a high school full of teenage girls? Or, y'know, all the people who get papercuts all the time, or cut themselves shaving, or any of the zillion other reasons someone might be bleeding a little.
Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Vampire stories always seem to overlook the whole menstruation thing.

Because books.

I read a Buffy fic once that really, really didn't.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
And didn't Theodore Sturgeon once do a story that addressed the issue? my memory is vague on this ... as on many other issues.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

It was a big thing in a later Anne Rice. The Body Thief or the one after that, I think.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

I'm assuming the magic underwear factors in somehow.

Uh, that was probably mine, if it was set between S5 and S6.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
I liked that one, I think, but I was probably on my period when I read it.
