Caleb wants the axe, doesn't he? And it doesn't come out of the rock without her, so there were a limited number of ways to get what he wanted.

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

All is well that ends in pizza.
So by that point, it was probably already unearthed. But it was never made explicit or mentioned again, so who knows?
The bringers were removing the stone from around the axe. Sort of like the modeling clay one used to remove in those kits with a statue inside of the clay.
Only, you know, harder.

Another social casualty...
CNN.com has a brief non-spoilery interview with Joss. My favorite quote:
THR: How does it feel to say goodbye to something in which you've invested so much of yourself?
Whedon: I had dinner with the writers the other night, and we listed the title of every single show, which was hard. Just the weight of the thing, the bulk of the thing -- every single one of those episodes had a message and a meaning and a very specific purpose. It wasn't always completely realized; it wasn't always as tight as it could have been. But the fact that 144 times we sat down and broke our backs to make a story worth telling is something that makes me feel enormously proud.
I would love to have been a fly on the wall during that discussion.

Nobody
I know Joss asked each writer to name the favorite ep they had written and why. I don't know who mentioned what, but isn't that a lovely thing to do?

Yes, it is. And something pretty much impossible to imagine on any other show.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Aww, that is cool.
The ficcish peeps are having a bunch of "My Character X" things going around. It's making me sad, but they're fun to read.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Those are nice. I loved your Buffy, btw.
(Has anyone done Bon Bon? I can't remember seeing one, but your friends list is probably way bigger than mine.)

I think Doyle or LM did one for Bon Bon. I know someone did.
The part of my Buffy one I still think is really *my* Buffy is:
...Has The Cutting Edge memorized and had a huge crush on D.B. Sweeney when she was in Jr. High.
...Thought Riley kind of looked like D.B. Sweeney.
...Might have had a little one on Moira Kelly. Either that or she just wanted to be her.
...Thinks Faith looks a little bit like Moira Kelly.
But that might be me being silly.
Did you read Kita's Angel one? DAMN. It was incredible.

Yeah, it was -- that's why it took off, I think. The original one just really hit people hard.
