Buffistas

Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

Discussion Threads

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."

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

The book festival has Kevin J. Anderson in a relatively small venue. Does that strike y'all as problem? He's not the world's most exciting writer, but he has been involved with a lot of high profile books.

Another question: A fairly new venture called Story Portals [link] has various writers writing about the same universe. One prominent character, a hedge witch, is named Bel Thorne. As a Bujold fan, I find this quite odd.

Yeah, that's... oddly specific.

And... oh, dear. Someone hasn't been watching the Women Fighters in Sensible Armor tumblr: [link]

And, oh, dear, I've also found a character named Alessan, which is a bit of a problem for anyone who's read Tigana. The writing on the one story I've opened is a bit... eh.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

From Consuela's tumblr link, I got to this awesome collection of Eowyn images: [link]

Which is full of awesome, except for this (NSFW): [link] WTFF? At what point in the epic battle did did Eowyn not just lose her armor, but her CLOTHES?!?! Lady Godiva she ain't.

Wow, those are cool, smonster. I really like these: [link] [link] [link]

OMG yes, that's ridiculous. WTF.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Oh, I love this one, and this portrait, and this Nouveau imagining, and this painting, so blocky and chunky but very alive and this faux Beardsley. And, holy shit, this.

I would so buy a calendar of Eowyn pictures. Gah. Right now I'm trying to pick one to use as a desktop.

Because books.

I love the Nouveau one.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I like this one, for the expression. I like that all we see of the Nazgul is the shadow, but the rest of the shadows in the picture are off.

I love how faithful this one is to the little details, so much packed in: [link] Theoden, the broken shield, the tears in her tunic and scratches on her face, Minas Tirith and the battle raging in the background.

I love the arc of the Nazgul's steed's wing in this one: [link]

Like the style, but hate her pose - "Talk to the hand, foul Dwimmerlaik." ::scuffs foot on bloody field:: [link]

Right now, this is winning for my desktop: [link]
