Buffista Fic: It Could Be Plot Bunnies
Where the Buffistas let their fanfic creative juices flow. May contain erotica.
I'm jealous of good Faith-voice. For some reason, I find her very hard to write.
See, I found Buffy difficult to write dialogue for but not reflection.... which was the complete opposite with Faith.
And thanks for the advice. I'm going back to change my hard copy right now. (Striking the
in fact
portion.)
BTW, ma'am, would you like to quickie beta six pages for me? Stuff with a girl and a horse?
Sure. Do you need it tonight, or can I do it in the morning?
I'm near to crashing, see.
So am I, babe. Any time before Wednesday. I'll email - your convenience. And mille remerciens.
Nicole, I've bookmarked yours, and I'll come back later and hopefully give it the attention it deserves.
connie.
wow.
You have singlehandedly transformed season five. You've written an fantastic story, in which things are not just different, they're better, even when that means worse. It's plotted beautifully, written clearly and with a delicate touch, and I'm absolutely head-over-heels in love with it.
Thank you.
P.S. You mentioned a sequel. I. want.
Nicole, that was great.
Faith leaned closer to Buffy, backing her against the wall, and whispered into Buffy's ear, "I might have expected this from Willow."
The above totally evoked Faith for me. I could see just how Eliza would play that, how she sort of does the leaning in, and the words come out of her mouth so softly, her lip movements almost don't match up, just before she slightly jerks her head back. Just great. You do great Faith voice. I think your Buffy is fine. I think you can either take or leave the "in fact". I can hear Buffy adding that in her thought, or not.
Faith walked over to Buffy and mock punched her in the arm with a coy smile. "I'm just saying, it's not like The Watcher's Council
General question to everyone, shouldn't that either be "Watchers' Council" or "Council of Watchers". I've always taken it as a plural possessive, but just end up using "Council of Watchers," instead, because it's easier.
I did a quick search for "council" in my scripts, and...
WEATHERBY
By order of the Watcher's Council,
you are being taken into custody
until such time --
It is "Watcher's Council" everywhere but in "Never Leave Me" where the name of the board room is listed as INT WATCHERS' COUNCIL DAY.
Not that we have to adhere to the script's spelling, just providing what we have.
I never use Council of Watchers, because it's pretty clearly "Watchers' Council" in the text.
Though, 99% of the time, I just use the Council.
I guess I'd have to lean towards "Watcher's Council," for each member is a Watcher, singular.
Yeah, but the Watchers, as a group, are the ones to whom the council belongs, not one in particular.
Reference question: If one were to travel from Hamburg to Prague by means other than a train or airplane, how long would it take?
Rackenfraken computer ate my post. Posting this for connie's and then back for Nicole's and subsequent.
What are we going to do with thirty some war horses?"
"eBay?" Buffy said without thinking.
snorfle!
Her mind shied away from the whole thing of Xander and Anya and what Xander had done in the night. "

A couple of somebody's
Would be "somebodies", I think.
Punctuation otherwise, okey dokey.
Storywise--wow. I waited and wanted the end, and it was grand, as was the whole long tale! But now--it's over! No! But wait--
know there was a sequel coming
Yay! WooHoo!
When?
