Sorry about that.
Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

This is where we talk about Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No spoilers though?if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it. This thread is NO LONGER NAFDA. Please don't discuss current Angel events here.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
More crazy links: E!Online ranks Buffy #1 on its list of top 10 kick-ass TV women ever. Sadly, most of the rest of the list is IMO kind of cringey, aside from Emma Peel (#2) and Xena (#10).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What? You don't think a Charlie's Angel could take Xena in a fight?

Depends on which Angel. But Farrah's Angel? Puh-leeze! Xena could snap her like a twig.
It's possible, though, that as a non-tan non-blonde whose formative preadolescent years were spent in suburban California during the height of Farrah mania, I have just a tad bit of residual Farrah bitterness. But even purely objectively speaking, I still maintain that Xena could snap her like a twig. The fact that I'd derive unholy enjoyment from said snappage in no way affects my judgment.

I wouldn't have even gone that far. Gabrielle could take any Angel, in my books, all the way up through the movies.

Emma Peel, mmm ....
I have a picture of Emma next to my computer. If I ever set up a proper altar, she's going on it.

Emma Peel should be number one. Xena should be number 2. Xena could kick Buffy's ass. Then Buffy at 4.
ETA: Then Buffy at 3. (What? I told you math scared me.)

No way. Xena'd make with the stupid war cry, Buffy would roll her eyes, diss the retro costume and stake her simultaneously.
Plus, Willow macking on Gabrielle in the background would totally distract X.

Given Xena's not a vampire, and is wearing a breastplate, I'm not sure that's the best angle.

Well, yeah, but the heart's always a good target. Breastplate, though, I dunno. Behead her, then? Xena's distracted anyway.
Maybe Buffy's got her nice shiny Fray weapon with her?
