Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

'Get It Done'


F2F5: I forget that everyone isn't us

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Trudy and I discovered a mutual friend, too. A guy I've known since I was a baby was her coworker.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

That was pretty amazing.

Kate and I also have a mutual friend, who she knew in high school and I knew in college.

Oh! And one of the Amys (can't remember board name!) shared her (or at least his) first kiss with a guy I know from improv here in NYC.

And we can't take care of those? sob!

Hey, my knees are about ten years past any possibility of taking up rugby!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

This Amy, both first kisses, and I was just about to say that Trudy has someone in common with everyone. Possibly, like, on earth.

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

My worst threads cross moment happened on TT when a poster revealed she was sleeping with someone who'd dated a cousin of mine (and whose roommate I'd briefly seen) and I realised that my sister was dating her ex.

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

I used to be active on an editors/researchers' board where someone had asked for guidance with something she was working on that had to do with blood splatter patterns for a mystery. Maybe a year later I was reading some Mulder/krycek fic and came across the exact scenario. Even though I'm usually super careful about maintaining borders I emailed her and sure enough.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Kate and I also have a mutual friend, who she knew in high school and I knew in college.

Not just a friend (for me), but my first serious boyfriend! And I love that Trudy met my friend S. in line for MCR. I even get little thrills when Buffista friends and RL fannish friends turn out to know each other on LJ.
