Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Well, I haven't read any of the new Angel comics, but I was flipping through one of the "Old Friends" ones in my local store and it featured Angel speaking to an eye-patched Gunn so the two of them survived, at least. Though it makes me wonder what's up with monster-fighting mortal men losing an eye in the Buffyverse.
Peter David also wrote a Illyria one-shot recently, but I'm not sure when it's set.

This keeps getting funnier. This is apparently from a post he made 6 months ago at Whedonesque (It was reposted, and I don't know where to look for the original so I can't swear to the accuracy.)
Speaking of Dark Horse Comics, they are starting a new Buffy comic, and as I understand it, it will take place after the end of Buffy and Angel and be canon in the Buffy world. And I understand it that way 'cause I'M WRITING IT. I'm kicking off the book with a four issue arc that finds Buffy -- you guessed it -- living in Italy with The Immortal. (Scott [Allie] -- don't be mad I spoiled the announcement -- saying it means I have to finish it.) Then I'll be overseeing the book more closely, to make sure it remains true. Gonna be interesting.
And then he goes on to say that it might tie into the you-know-who-movie.
The "season 8" bit seems to be coming from Dark Horse's PR, not Whedon, so I think it might be a mistake to focus on that wording too much.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

As long as we don't have to deal with "Infinite Buffy Crisis," because I don't think I can deal with Spike punching time and rewriting continuity.
Although it would explain a lot.

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor
It's how we got Dawn.
During "Crisis on Infinite Buffys" all fanfic would be canon.
...all the slash definitely would, name like that.

Can it somehow cross over into DC 52, just to have every female in the Jossverse wind up in Montoya's bedroom?
Errm.
Christ, I'm as predictable as Greg Rucka.
And in the same exact way.
