Different lines and scenes from Deb's stories have been running through my head each time I wake up
I've been thinking about it all day, too! And even as Deb is asking Connie for more, I'm still waving my "Deb, Please Write More Amanda!" flag.
'Shindig'
Where the Buffistas let their fanfic creative juices flow. May contain erotica.

Maybe just a play on 'Potential'. It can refer to the Potentials, it could refer to the reawakened relationship...
The best titles are all portmanteaus.
Crap, you just cannot use the word "faith" in anything without people expecting The Other Slayer. Mmffh.
Will get food, continue to think.
The more I think about it, the two iconic images from connie's story are the exploding library and the two-faced coin.
If this were part of a funny series, "Ethan Rayne, Agent of J.A.N.U.S." would be cool.
"Fighting Chaos with Chaos" keeps leaping to the top of my primal soup, but I don't like the flow of the syllables.
Gods, it feels so pretentious to wonder if Shakespeare paced around trying to come up wtih titles. Sure, "The Tragicall History of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark" is easy, but "Much Ado About Nothing," how long did it take to come up with that?
Connie, I like something handles the two-faced aspect, myself. It's like the old college philosophy prof says, "you can't see both sides of a coin at once without a mirror. And even then, you can't see its edge."
Huh. Never even occurred to me before to write anything more about Amanda; where would that go? I mean - she was young, she was Rupert's honey, she was the first Slayer in history who was born to Other Things (a more powerful witch than she was slayer) and she was physically handicapped at about twenty. So, where would that story be - in terms of her life, that is? Post-spell screwup, her travels through other dimensions? Amanda the Teenaged Witch-Slayer?
I'd like to hear about her relationship with Giles (because I have a soft spot for Giles -- hell, who doesn't?), how her time as Slayer was different than all the others b/c of her witchy powers, and/or her travels through other dimensions.
I'm just utterly intrigued by her.
I want to know what happens later. Giles is supposed to trust her and she's got the slayer's incorporeal self. What happened, exactly, that made Buffy describe it as "being in heaven"? What happens to Amanda now that this is over? Does she go back to Giles? Did Giles trust her? Was he right to trust her from his perspective, considering that, as far as he knew, Buffy died and was brought back by "foul" means? Does he want to know more? Does he go looking for Amanda's home? If he does, does he find it? Can Amanda help somehow with this season's big bad?
I could think of more....
"Reflections of a Spinning Mirror"
almost there. Gods, this is hard. And I'm enjoying it immensely.
edit: "The Two-Faced God Considers His Reflection" a wee bit high on the pretention scale, but it's easier than trying to summarize the whole thesis I came up with re: two faces being the person plus the reflection they see and the whole dichotomy of mirror universes and being one's opposite. Which might be interesting if you consider Ethan and Giles to be reflections of each other.
And I'll stop now.
