Thanks for all the fish.

The entire kicking out of the house thing made me so angry. I wanted to slap Rona and kill Kennedy (thought that urge wasn't limited to this episode). I thought that Xander was the only one with sufficient current justification to do that to Buffy - and I was still surprised, because I thought he'd at least try to back her up, even if he rejected her idea. Mainly, though, I wanted her to tell Dawn that it would be her house too once she'd paid for a full copper re-pipe...

And what was the reason for getting her out? So she could cuddle all night with Spike? Was there not a better way to do this? Or, at least, could it have been because of the FE getting its fingers into things?

I would have loved it if Xander had been the only one to support Buffy, despite his injury. It would have been more like Xander, imo.

I figure I would have been okay with any reaction Xander had in that scene. I'd have bought if he continued on as Brave Little Toaster, but I kind of liked that the writers refused to take the St. Xander route, because really, the poor boy lost an eye. He'd be questioning her judgment.

Also? Paging Elena in Bitches for a professional question.

Thanks for all the fish.

Be right there, Cindy.

And, yeah, Xander could do anything right about then, because losing an eye? Buys you a lot of social credit.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Huh. "First Date" was on tonight.

"Storyteller" is on next week.

There's thievery afoot when following that link. Then again, the root URL isn't working right, either.

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

Ah. Set up to reject both direct links to images and "referrals" from the "you can't see this" page. Devious.

Oh, yeah, uh, nice picture.

I still stand by my feelings that if not for Nicky B's portrayal of Xander in "WttH" I probably would not have tuned in for another week. It was all about the pining over Buffy for me.
