Do I wish I was somebody else right now. Somebody not... married, not madly in love with a beautiful woman who can kill me with her pinkie!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Sorry for pimping w/ no link, it's been a hellish day, fighting the ascension and all. (see Bitches)

Thanks, Plei, for picking up my slack.

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

Heh. For me, I think this is the best reason to write fic, to try and make sense of the ideas in your head that aren't quite explained on the show.

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

I think this is the best reason to write fic, to try and make sense of the ideas in your head that aren't quite explained on the show.

Absolutely. And I think that's why the bunnies I get -- and especially the ones I actually chase down -- are almost always of the fill-in-the-gaps, mine-the-subtext, get-in-the-character's-head type, rather than anything that's too terribly AU. (YficMV, as always.)

And dudes, fear my hyphens!

Oh, yeah. And, well, I may be AU's bitch at the moment, but I swear I have reasons for every single one of them.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

(like making Buffy and Wesley have sex and interact)

Oh no (or well - no - not just that). In Plei's gargantuan fic she's just put up (un-Beta-d, but it doesn't need it - really) she made me glad canon!Giles was silent after his visit with the Eye of Beljoxa. She used an explanation I've seen us bandy about in this thread during episode explication, but she wrote it into the story so well, that it fixed canon for me, and made me appreciate how that thread was carelessly dropped in canon.

Gah.

I'm on a big Plei high this morning.

Huh. I have a massively long car ride to look forward to Saturday, and another one Sunday.

I might even get this puppy closer to a finished state.

But that's the thing, you see. There are so many threads dropped, for time or what have you, that could be interesting, that part of my AU love right now is just running with them.

Yes. And in this AU of yours, it really works. And it's gorgeous. Really Plei, I read it in the wee small hours and am sorry I didn't read more slowly. Gah.
