Now we're saving a vampire from vampires. I got two words for that -- Nuh and uh.

Natter 78: I might need to watch some Buffy for inspiration

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Was forced to side with Buffy and play nice with Joyce

I think Spike respected Joyce enough that it didn't take much coercion for him to play nice. She inadvertently stumbled across the way to his heart—blunt force trauma—in their first meeting!

I'm back from several days in Eureka Springs, having missed most of the predicted rain and about half the expected good meals, but catching up on more than the anticipated amount of sleep.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Well, we’ve made it to Balticon. Mr. S has been acting a bit wild, so we’ll see how all this goes.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I have a new puppy! My sister went to the local shelter with me this morning, where they have about 80 big dogs who need homes, and I met two dogs. One was a very nice boy, but he was not as interested in me as in the other dogs in the area.

This girl, however, was very interested in people, and took treats from me, and walked on a leash, and peed immediately when she got outside the kennel, which was a good sign. So I brought her home! She is now curled up on her dog bed while I watch GBBO.

I will get a DNA thing done, but I believe she is a shepherd/Alaskan husky mix. Not Siberian: her coat is not nearly thick enough. But the blue eyes are amazingly striking.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Congratulations to you both!

What a sweet face!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

She's lovely! I'm interested in her DNA but she's 100% possibly Best Girl.

I have a kitten on her being significantly something beyond husky and shepherd (while having a bunch of percentage of them) but cannot for the life of me figure out what.

She looks like some local strays. I can't figure them out either.

I'm dithering over names. If I got a boy dog, I was thinking about Brasso or Kino -- both Star Wars names, from Andor. But I don't love the female names (Marva, Bix, Dedra), so I'm thinking about Star Trek instead. My favorite Trek right now is Lower Decks.

So: Tendi? Beckett? Mariner?

Tendi is too close to my brother's dog, who is named Twende (Swahili for "let's go"). Personality-wise, she's closer to Tendi than to Mariner, but still: it's a more stealth Trek callout than one of the other characters from the live action shows.

One of those, I think.

Our wings are not tired.

I love Tilly!!

I have a niece (well, cousin’s daughter who’s more like niece) named Kira for ST.
