Good things come to those who wait!!!!

[elisi]

Yay! I finally get to tell you why I've been so busy recently (well one of the reasons anyway):

lillianmorgan, kittyzams and I have been busy setting up a community to celebrate the last two seasons of Buffy. Welcoming anything and everything, as long as it is relevant and non-flamey - so get out those old posts/fics/essays etc and re-post. Anyway, here it is:

lateseasonlove

Go have a look and see what you think - I know that most of you will probably pounce on it like a missing scene from 'Smashed'! *g* And then please pimp it as much as you can!

See we even have a gorgeous icon (by eyesthatslay) - you're more than welcome to snag (as long as you credit of course!)

(If for some reason you *don't* like the later seasons, just pretend that this post doesn't exist and move right along. We're all about the squee, not arguing.)

Yes I am probably insane, but I don't have time to worry about it, since I have to take children to school in a minute...

Okay, as you've all nagged.

[elisi]

We're not nagging... just encouraging! *g*

[bogwitch.livejournal.com]

It's just as well, I am a late season person then.

[elisi]

:)

[shapinglight]

Okay, I joined.

[zanthinegirl.livejournal.com]

Very cool! I'd been watching since season 3, but seasons 6 and 7 were what turned me from a viewer into a fan!

[elisi]

See, our timing is impeccable! ;)

[kathyh]

Yay! Great idea. Will go and join forthwith.

[elisi]

Same here - except I watched since S1 (but missed all of S3 first time round). I enjoy good tv, but it's very hard to make me an obsessive! :)

[elisi]

Hurrah! :)

[jamalov29.livejournal.com]

Of course i'm in. :)
This is a wonderful initiative to keep our community alive and kicking.

[zanthinegirl.livejournal.com]

I know what you mean. BTVS/ATS where the last things I was obsessive about. Though I had a fling with B5 in the days before Buffy...

Well, OK there was that Highlander thing, too. But that's it! Honestly! :P

[elisi]

I saw! And you provided our first-ever comment!!!

We saw a 'gap in the market' and thought it could do with filling. :)

[elisi]

Heeee! I think my first *proper* obsession was probably Elfquest. And then Buffy - although there are a LOT of other things I've liked very, very much. Doctor Who being among the latest. (See icon)

[petzipellepingo.livejournal.com]

I'm in and am running off to pimp. Whee!

[elisi]

Yay! ::smooches you::

[avrelia.livejournal.com]

Yay! ;)

[elisi]

Squee! ;)

[mikeygs.livejournal.com]

:)

[elisi]

:) indeed!

[fotada.livejournal.com]

I'm totally there, dude. :)

I love Season 6 & 7!

[elisi]

Yay! ::twirls you::

[zimshan.livejournal.com]

Hehe. Late Season Love. I love it! Finally a place where I can celebrate my S6/S7 love without getting smashed for it. Those old Buffy posts might just get done after all...

[elisi]

Finally a place where I can celebrate my S6/S7 love without getting smashed for it.
Exactly! :) And Buffy posts? Sounds wonderful!

[gillo]

Sounds good to me - I love late season stuff.Especially Spuffy

[elisi]

Yay! The more the merrier. (And Spuffy definitely is a *big* part of why *I* love the later seasons.)

[calturner.livejournal.com]

Wonderful idea! I've joined. :)

[elisi]

Hurrah! I have a feeling 90% of my flist will be there soon! :)

[buffyprof.livejournal.com]

w/ bells on! (could get kinda loud)

[elisi]

Heee! But yeah, I have a clever flist. :)

Also thought you might find this interesting: Spike as Jane Austen hero.

[cindergal.livejournal.com]

I joined! While season 5 will always be my favorite, I love the last two seasons as well. And Season 2. And 3 and 4 had their moments. And 1, though short, wasn't bad...

See, I'm all about the love. :-)

[buffyprof.livejournal.com]

Gah! You totally rock (I think a turtle says this in Nemo, I'm all about the high culture). Thanks! I'll be writing that paper up soon. I'd love it if you'd have a look--unfortunately it's mostly S5 so won't fit your community, but I do have something on S7. . .

[elisi]

See, I'm all about the love. :-)
Me too! I can find something positive everywhere. :)

[gillo]

I'm deeply conventional in my allegiance to mainly canon pairings. And masses of Spuffysmut.

[spikesdeb.livejournal.com]

Been and gone and joined! The last seasons are my favourite because - well,you know - Spuffy and all. And I'm not listening to anybody tell me Spike was abused. There were two of them there. Ahem. Calming down.

Great idea; can I have posting access so that I can post some fics? *smooches*

[elisi]

And I'm not listening to anybody tell me Spike was abused. There were two of them there. Ahem. Calming down.
*Thank you*!!!! The reason the physical relationship started in earnest was because he could hit back! We should write an essay...

And there'll be posting access for all from Thursday! (1st Feb)

*smooches back*

[elisi]

I hope it wasn't a disappointment - twas only a teeny piece, but I saw it and thought of you!

And I'd love to read your paper! (The S7 thing sounds good too. :) )

[elisi]

Me too! (And that is a *gorgeous* icon!)

I tried to join several times but each time i click on the link , it doesn't lead me to the right place. Only a page saying that it's an error.
I don't understand what's happening since i've seen so many people becoming members since Monday ?

[elisi]

I don't know why that is, but I've added you and now all you have to do is go here and um click on something. I think. ::crosses fingers::

[jamalov29.livejournal.com]

Thanks Elisabeth ! It worked. :)

[elisi]

Yay! Welcome. :)

[sweet-ali.livejournal.com]

Hee, so THAT is what you were hinting at *adores you and the community*

You.are.awesome.

[elisi]

Hee. ::preens::

I had the hardest time keeping it a secret, what with all the arguments following st_salieri's poll etc.

But I am so pleased that we got the idea - enjoying stuff is so much nicer than putting it down! :)
