Zombies in Space. It would've broken records all across the world.
Spike: Ladies. Come on in. Plenty of blood in the fridge, don't be shy. Dawn: You mean like, real blood? Spike: What do you think? Dawn: Mostly I think, 'Eew!'
'Potential'

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Abso-sweet-ly! Don't let me bust out my checkbook if there's no washer/dryer. Unless Tim says he'll buy them for me instead of a pony.

Zombies in Space.
I draw the line, here. Zombies and Serenity can't be combined in any way.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Reavers translated into English is zombies.
Whores In Space would be the best title.

Ooo, are you looking to move?
...Wait, is this because I said I could probably find my way back to your apt?

Hey. New board.
Angel eps that make me cry: "I Will Remember You," "Hero," "Home" (sometimes), "A Hole in the World," "Not Fade Away." I can't believe nothing from Season 2 really stands out to me as a cry-maker; I think the emotional impact of that season is so slow that it never pushes me right over that edge. It's like a frog that doesn't notice it's hot when you boil it slowly.
Buffy eps that make me cry: "Lie to Me" (a little), "Innocence," "Passion," "Becoming part 2," "Anne" (for some reason), "Lover's Walk," (OH NO ANGST!), "The Wish," (that last scene is KILLER images), "The Prom," (Class protector award!), "Graduation Day part 2" (happy/sad tears at the survival + Angel leaving), "Wild at Heart," (MORE ANGST!), "This Year's Girl," (for an odd reason - Faith's relationship with the mayor hits me so hard, I always tear up when she gets his message at the beginning), "New Moon Rising," (ANGST AGAIN!), "I Was Made To Love You," (The last scene gets me. Poor dying android.), "The Body," "Forever," "The Gift," "Hell's Bells," "Seeing Red"
Firefly eps that make me cry: "Out of Gas"
Funny, because I think of Angel as a much more sad-making show than Buffy, but I guess sad-making and cry-making are different emotions for me.

There's a wee house for rent in my hood. I'm always looking to move, but the prices for apartments here are of the suck. It's a one-bedroom in my price-range.
Kristen is going to the open house with me so we can appear to be a stable lesbian couple.

If I only had a brain...
Sentences I never expected to say in my life:
"Tomorrow I am taking my kids to 'Snakes on a Plane'."
So, yeah, it's a Thing.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
War Stories made me weep...god, did I cry. The Body made me cry, and the Amanda's a Potential and the Amanda dies episodes of Buffy made me cry too.
Angel didn't. That wasn't its edge for me.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
War Stories didn't make me cry, but it was one of the episodes I related to the most as a vet. Put any two ex-military in a room together and it's inevitable, the stories come out by the bookload.
