Wheras I love Buffy more, but still love SPN a lot. And I have absolutely no problem with the fact that Kripke is mostly (but not 100%) winging it.
I got stabbed, you know, right here.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think I love SPN and the Jossverse separately, for different reasons, with different crazy highs. I have no illusions that that would necessarily mean I'd like either of the guys, though.
I do like Tim, though. He's cool.

You know, I think this is the first time I've even thought about whether I'd like either. I mean the self that writes is sometimes so different from the self the presents in person, that a person's writing does not necessarily indicate anything about what they are like in person.

I have one question for Kripke¹ and maybe none for Joss². The difference with Tim is that I already know him, so it's not like it's just through his writing. But Tim's writing is highly "motherfucker!" and would tempt me to want to at least poke at the person behind the script.
Thinking more about writers...it's hard to say strictly because of their scripts, because so many of them have other presences these days.

Because books.
Kripke strikes me as the sort of guy I'd love to have a beer or two with. Very seat of his pants, in the moment, and willing to collaborate and see what he (and others) can cull from the basic story he set up. I think the ride, given the fan support and reaction, has been as much fun for him as anything.
Joss ... does not strike me that way. I don't think I'd have a good time with Joss, but then I don't have to. I do appreciate his work, though. I loved Buffy for a lot of reasons, and every once in a while I still get that "I miss my girl" feeling.

I'd totally go clubbing with Sera. She looks like a hoot.

Oh, Sera I sort of want to be my BFF. And Jeremy Carver, based solely on episodes he's written, seems like my kind of guy, too.

My impression is that Sera is basically what you'd get if shrift became executive producer on a network TV genre show. I'd only fear for the normal people around us if she and any of the folks from this board hung out.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
My one face to face interaction with Joss was at the comic book signing I went to with ita, and the most notable thing about it was how obvious he was about staring at ita's ass.

I, uh, completely missed that. Face to face he met my eyes?
