I was thinking it could go in Boxed Set.

ND FTW.
Buffy or Other Media work for me. I agree that it won't work so well in Natter.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't see a single reason for it to go in B/A. Unless we switched to the business of thread resuscitation while I wasn't looking. In which case why not Sang Sacre?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Other Media seems right to me.

Does anyone have a reason it shouldn't go in Other Media? I don't see one. Seems like a good fit to me.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I don't see a single reason for it to go in B/A.
It's made by and stars a Buffy alum? I'm not saying it's the strongest reason ever, but it is a single one.

On this board? I can't imagine! Then again, I scarecly have to.

It's a pretty weak one, as far as I can tell. The B/A thread belongs to the shows, and currently Joss. That makes sense to me.

If someone doesn't routinely read B/A or Bureau and would like to talk about The Guild, would they know to look for it in B/A? If someone is following The Guild but isn't caught up, would they know to expect spoilers for it in B/A? Declaring in Bureau that it'll be okay to discuss it in B/A only helps people who reads at least one of those threads.
I don't want to make it seem like I personally want to drive the Guild conversation out of that particular thread; The Guild isn't an issue for me and the people who want to discuss it certainly aren't Ruining My Life. It's the eternal bright lines thing. I don't know how to guess where I should mention something, or what threads I should follow, or even what threads it's safe for me to read, if the names & slugs have no relationship to what's actually being discussed.
