Wow -- that'll teach me for skipping in this thread -- had to go back and read all lovely drabbles.
See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
suhNERK!
Am, that was truly one of the evillest, funniest ways to wake up ever. John Cleese Vamp Foo!

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
More Crossover Drabblishness:
Giles frowned. "I don't think you're taking this seriously. According to the scroll - "
"Yeah, yeah, I got it. Stupid portals. Stupid hellmouths. Stupid interdimensional gateway things. Four heads, eight legs, destroyer of worlds, yada yada." Buffy hefted her axe and sighed. Eldritch light poured into the chamber on cue as the surface of the gateway began to ripple and distort the fabric of reality.
Four figures appeared. They looked surprisingly human.
Buffy paused.
"Giles? Not looking real demony here."
"Erm…"
"Miss, just put the axe down. Please?"
"Are you demons?"
"Daniel? You sure you read those co-ordinates right?"
eta
number!

Thank you, Deb.
Fay, that's funny, though I'll confess that I'm only guessing at which fandom you're crossovering with. Stargate SG-1, right?

Isn't it weird, how the "anything but with-each-other BTVS/Angel crossover" command unleashed some of the best drabbles ever?

It's a bit strange to me that something as short as a drabble has room to crossover successfully-- previously I'd been of the opinion that a crossover wanted to be longer to work well, to give you time to deal fully with both canons.

I know. I've fallen in love with the drabble as an exercise - it imposes a beautiful set of self-disciplinary writing tools, and not only in fic.

You got it, Am.
Drabbles are fun.

I would've thought so too, Am.
I was surprised I could write them, but it just happened.
Did anyone else take Deena's "Wesley has sex and comes first" challenge from her LiveJournal? I have almost 500 words of S2 Wes/Cordy written (hey, it has to be *bad* sex, so i'm just getting them drunk.).

It's a prose/poetry hybrid, isn't it. A strict form (so that you have to cut everything unimportant out), but written in prose so that you have the freedom to use natural speech. Yeah, it's a lovely tool. I should try more original ones, they might get me past some of the blocks I have.
You got it, Am.
Good! Not bad, given that I've seen a whole half-an-episode and never read any fic.
Drabbles are fun.
Wrod. Particually when one gets the chance to apply the word 'plumage' to Spike's hair.
