Icon is spot-on.

That sound you just heard? Was my head exploding from reading buffy #19. I mean, you would have *thought* that after all the Twilight-y goodness crack I've been subjecting myself to, I'd be fairly immune to crazy, but no. My brain is struggling to cope.

OK, the whole Fray thing with Willow and so forth MAKES NO SENSE TO ME. I mean, at all. Everything ended up back where they started, except apparently Willow will (for some reason) live for a few centuries. (And good on her for using a blindfold, THANK YOU! I hate it when people stupidly do not follow simple instructions.)

The whole creatures of forest battle thing was so ridiculous that my mind kinda blanked it out.

And then came the point at which my head exploded and I DIED! OMG it's RILEY and he's an EEEEEVOL and working for Twilight and he was was the 'mystery date' and my god could they possibly be more insulting to Buffy? I want to be angry, but quite honestly I just can't help but enjoying the fact that MONTHS WORTH of speculation is finally proven right! (I, obviously, think it OOC, but then, like, EVERYONE and EVERYTHING, is OOC in s8, so it's nice to add another one to the collection. Oh! If this is canon, then it *proves* - IMHO - that the whole Doctor thing in AYW was a total stitch-up to get Buffy to dump Spike.)

This is going to keep me amused for a long, long time. (Of course Riley could be a double-agent, but I DON"T CARE. Maybe he also took up ballet, it doesn't matter. I'm going to bed now.)

BTW, did that ever get resolved?

Well, if by "resolved" you mean she's now a centaur instead of a giant, yeah.

::wants some of whatever the writers are smoking::

So do I...

Next thing you know , they'll have her go into heat and get knocked up by a horse and give birth to a glowing green foal which will mutate into a grown woman and seduce Giles.

You did hear what Scott Allie said about a future plot line for Dawn, right?

[ladycat713.livejournal.com]

No tell me!

Quoting girlpire's report: Apparently, in an upcoming issue, the naked horse parts become... an issue... when a male horse sort of smells her out and becomes interested. Dawn is indignant and Xander and Willow have to "cockblock the horse."

No word on magical green foals, but they can't be far behind. Zoophilia yay...?

And here I thought that was completely out of left field. I was just thinking of what the most outrageous possible outcome to her being a centaur.Maybe that's how they think up the plot lines.

Oh, dear Lord!

Must go scrub out my brain-- that's ickiest thing I've heard yet about season 8. And that's counting flayed!Warren!

Aaargh! Me too. I much prefer my version, where she is living with elves!
