I, uh, wrote a fanfic about that years ago.
And I read it.
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

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."

Ask her. I didn't save it. I just read it. A few times.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Um, good question. Let me see if I can rustle it up.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
I think Theodore Sturgeon - or someone writing when he was - did something along those lines.
And with all the zombie stories around now, how would a zombie apocalypse affect Christian celebrations of the eucharist? transubstantiation and all that ....

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
I don't think it was Steph's, but I read a long Buffy/Spike that used that premise some time ago.

One problem with Erin's notion - you'd have to keep them separate from each other. If everybody syncs up it defeats the purpose.

I woke up early this morning and couldn't fall back to sleep, so I started reading Will Grayson, Will Grayson, and I just finished it.
Fantastic.

Hey. New board.
Isn't? What an unrealistic but totally awesome-to-read book!
