Randomness.

AOQ loved OMWF. :)

ETA: Here's what he said re. Teh Spuffy:

Our hero and William get together this way, huh? And it doesn't seem
like it's just because of the gimmickry; I'll remember that scene
independently of the fact that it's a song. Back in "Crush," I
was convinced that some major things would have to change before they
could hook up. Naturally I was thinking about Spike changing, and he
has done that to a degree. What hadn't even occurred to me was that
a difference in Buffy could be the trigger. It makes total sense to me
that S6 Buffy, cast out of Heaven into a world of anhedonia,
desperately trying to feel something, might do things that would have
been unfathomable to S5 Buffy. Well played, show.


[livejournal.com profile] moscow_watcher wrote an article to counter the one by Heather Fowler (the whys can be found here.) Excellent stuff.

I posted chapter 3 of 'Illyria, Alone' over the weekend.

Darcy bought me (us) Season 3 of Buffy (DVD) a few days ago. :) (Yes the re-watch continues and I have *no* time for writing down thoughts.) Watched most of 'Band Candy' yesterday, and it's funny how Angel's half-naked tai-chi (that - I think - is supposed to be hot) gets totally overshadowed by Ripper!Giles who is too cool for words. *wibble* I mean, who in their right mind would choose Angel if they had the choice between those two?

Oh and 'Lost in Space' is possibly the bestest Spuffy album ever. Lines like 'Hate the sinner, but love the sin' could have been written for S6 Spike/Buffy. And I really, really wish someone would make a S6 Buffy vid to 'It's Not':

I keep going round and round on the same old circuit
A wire travels underground to a vacant lot
Where something I can't see interrupts the current
And shrinks the picture down to a tiny dot
And from behind the screen it can look so perfect
But it's not

So here I'm sitting in my car at the same old stoplight
I keep waiting for a change but I don't know what
So red turns into green turning into yellow
But I'm just frozen here on the same old spot
And all I have to do is to press the pedal
But I'm not
No, I'm not

People are tricky, you can't afford to show
Anything risky anything they don't know
The moment you try, you kiss it goodbye

So baby kiss me like a drug like a respirator
And let me fall into the dream of the astronaut
Where I get lost in space that goes on forever
And you make all the rest just an afterthought
And I believe it's you who could make it better
But it's not
No, it's not
No, it's not


Any vidders who feel like trying - I'd be happy to send you the song!
