Pimpety pimp! :)

beer_good_foamy has *excellent* meta on 'Buffy Vs Dracula' (the ep, the show and vampires in general - plus a couple of notes on the comic).

I presume most people have read this interview with Joss? If I had time I'd pull out bits & pieces, but suffice to say that it confirms everything I feel re. s8!

And via selenak a couple of fic recs:

Last One Out. Really, really excellent Torchwood fic, looking at what the future might hold for the team. Painful, but very rewarding to read! Three chapters, complete. Spoilers up to (and including) 'A Day in the Death'. ETA: It's by joonscribble if you'd rather go to her LJ. :)

Pockets by meddow. A Donna-centric ficlet that is truly wonderful. Very simple premise, and yet it reminded me of all the reasons I love The Doctor! *pines*

(There might have been more, but I've forgotten it and also I have to run! See you later!)

ETA: For Torchwood fans: There is a new comm on the block: our_torchwood is for enjoying, discussing and mocking (because we *love*) our show. Bashing not allowed! See this post. It explains why Torchwood is like sushi. (No spoilers!) :)

Oh my god. That Torchwood fic? Really?

I don't read a great deal of fanfic, quite deliberately. That was genuinely brilliant writing.

I teared up a bit early in chapter two, and made a mental note to comment on it. Add some incredibly talented storytelling to that excellent characterisation, and I had to pause several times through chapter three to stop out-and-out bawling. Such a way to wrap it up and tie it together!

Brilliant. Really. Thank you for the link.

And if that ever happens in canon, I'll kick the asses of everyone involved.

Oh my pleasure. I couldn't *not* rec it, because... well because. ::deep sigh::

And if that ever happens in canon, I'll kick the asses of everyone involved.
And I will help! It is scary how attached I am to these characters...
