You = not so much.
Cindy was surprised! Anne was surprised!
Clearly they are silly. Plei comes across online as intense but laconic. You come across as intense and rapid-fire.
Wesley: I stabbed you. I should apologize for that. But I'm honestly not sure how. I think it'll just be awkward. Gunn: Good call. Wesley: Okay.

Spike's Bitches 33: Weeping, crawling, blaming everybody else
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Always Anti-fascist!
Mine will not help J. as I was confused as to whose first impression I was having. My mental images of people are always a bit off. and you all have an advatage when you meet me...I bring in a big damn clue.

I've never met any of you, so--no, I met Trudy! Trudy is cool and gorgeous. And likes mountains.
And Polter is very kind and sounds cute over the phone.

Yeah, but -- knowing ahead of time that you're in a chair, at least for me, meant that my first impression *wasn't* "Yep, wheelchair." Not at all. Mostly it was "Cool hair, pretty eyes, great smile."

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Steph! Of course I liked you! And, IIRC, we even kissed that weekend!! My first impression of you was that you had gorgeous skin. And the hair I've wanted all of my life.
erika - wicked cool, just like on the board. snarky, funny, foamy. All the requirements of be ing a Buffusta.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Voice, Tep. I thought your voice would be more like mine, and instead it was this contralto-y deadpan chain-smoking '40's secretary-of-a-private-dick voice.
Sweet lord how I love this description! It's perfect!
Everybody gets shocked that I have a face like a Hummell but all these violent metaphors spew out.
Rosy cheeks, sparkling eyes, snarky mouth!

Erin, I cracked up at your description of trying to explain Perkygoth to your students. I can just picture the confused expressions, poor munchkins.
First impressions? Erin looked a lot more ... cherubic than I expected. (I think I expected to see more of your snarky wit in your facial expression.) I thought Teppy was far more luminous than her pictures. Aimée was "Wow, tall pretty person hugging me!" My first reaction to Anne was that you looked SO pretty and smart. I, like everyone, didn't expect Hec to sound like that. I discovered erika had beautiful eyes. For some reason, I thought P-C was going to be more baby-faced, and taller. And the first time I saw juliana, I thought "Wow. I want her cheekbones. My God, she's stunning."

I forgot Anne!
Anne was gorgeous and gracious and didn't toss Joe out on his arse for spilling beer near her TV.

I'm just glad you weren't like, "AHHH! Strange girl tackling me in an airport! Pete! Hit her with my parasol."

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
And the first time I saw juliana, I thought "Wow. I want her cheekbones. My God, she's stunning."
Oh come on, admit it. The first time you saw Juliana you thought, "I'm going to keep her in a velvet cage."
