Lots o' stuff.
A RL friend was going to come visit today and stay overnight, but thanks to rain -> floods -> cancelled trains she can't make it. *pouts* But she might come in a month's time...
So - first of all a Happy Birthday to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
timeofchange and liliaeth! May you both have brilliant days!
And then - comes the pimpin'!
the_royal_anna made a Spuffy vid that had me drowning in my gorgeous ship! (Subtitled: "No you don't. Hello?" or "Clearly, it was only Teh Sex")
Via Petzi, an interview with the artist doing the artwork for issue 5 of s8: Paul Lee! I'd pretty much given up on the comics, but with a different artist? Oh I think I might have a look... also he says this. (W. lots of comments from me! *g*)
Well, in my issue, Giles and Andrew are the main cast members I dealt with.
::much cheering:: I love Giles. And although I adore Andrew, I really, really want to know what the heck the Scoobies are doing making him *a leader*! I mean that is just... *mind boggles* I hope there's a very good explanation!
There are also appearances from some of the "Slayerettes" from season 7. I actually try really hard to get accurate likenesses. That's one of my strengths, and why I got the gig.
::even more cheering::
THE PULSE: How tough is it to draw characters who were immortalized on television, but have to make them slightly different for the comic book universe? Do you ever find yourself slipping and maybe making Buffy look too much like Sarah Michelle Gellar? Was there even something in place that said you couldn't make them look like their TV counterpoints?
LEE: Well, likenesses are always a challenge. And, translating anything to a different medium always requires some adapting. I don't think there is a prohibition against making Buffy look like SMG, though.
*snickers* Jeanty you are so pwn'd!
Finally before I run off again (why does life never stop being busy?) a fic rec:
Five things Angel does his fourth day as CEO of Wolfram & Hart.
Oh and oh and oh. This is just *perfection*! So short, and yet so perfectly reminds me of all the different reasons I love Angel (profound, heartbreaking, avoidy, funny). If you have only one minute for reading today, please choose this! And it very, very nearly made me cry. Shut up.
