The Twilight reveal thingy.

Is it just me, or would s8 work *so* much better if it featured penguins?

Surely anything would?

Dude, I seriously considered buying Abraham Lincoln: Vampire for the title alone!

Ssssssh! Don't spoil the big finale that sets up Season 9!

I'm waiting for someone to post a review. I hear they sparkle glow and have sex whilst flying through the air.

Um. Okay. ;-)

Penguins would make much more sense.

So, let's see...


Warren!penguin loses all his feathers, but then comes back and joins all the other penguins anyway.

Dawn!penguin becomes a King Penguin while all the others are Fairy Penguins.

All the Slayer!penguins start organising raids on all the other penguin colonies and stealing all their fish.

Angel!penguin learns how to fly! Woo! Kaark!

National Geographic organises a smear campaign and turns the world against the Slayer!penguins.

Satsu!penguin shyly introduces Buffy!penguin to the delights of cinnamon-flavoured fish.


...how am I doing so far?

Not sparkly penguins! Anyth9ng but that!

Kaaaaargh!

OMG. Awesome in a truly disturbing way. Twilight penguins. ::gulp::

...and convinces everyone that they want to get eaten by a leopard seal. It's what all the cool kids are doing.

Joss really missed a trick there. Twilight really, really should be a penguin.

From the reviews I've read, almost anything would have made more sense. Emo emus, even.

I'm not really down with the penguin thing (it caught me at the wrong time), but in answer to your question, of course it would.

I know, right? Everyone keeps talking about how Joss is subverting the Angel/Buffy relationship with that OTT final scene, but what could be more subversive than sappy, glowy, floating, Twilight-style superlove... WITH PENGUINS?

Actually I thing [livejournal.com profile] a2zmom has the best theory. Proving that even die hard B/A shippers are looking at this and going, DUDE wtf?

There needs to be a penguin threesome between Buffy!penguin, Spike!penguin and Angel!penguin. OMGTHEIRLOVEISSODAPPER!!!!!!!111111111!!!!elevinty!!

Most definitely! *g*

What??? Sex while glowing and flying? Every time I read a snippet from the comics I think 'okay, that's as weird and ridiculous as it can get' but then it gets worse. At least Joss keeps surprising me? Definitely better with penguins. Everything is better with penguins.

Obviously.

I am of the opinion that S8 is Joss' own series continuation crack!fic. As it is, I'm enjoying the fic, but still...it doesn't feel all that canon.

Everything is better with penguins!

Kaaar! Absolutely!
And Dawn could've been turned to a whale instead.

::nods::

I stopped reading the comics ages ago (bank-robbing slayers? Really?) but they totally would have worked better as penguins.

Also, I d/l the brilliant penguin icon thinking "I'll never get to use it much". I'm amused at how often it's relevant!

Karrk!

Everything is better with penguins. Even this drek.
