To me, Alisson Hannigan 9/10 times looks better in random photos and mag covers than she does on BTVS. Even in that behind-the-scenes pic of her and AD in the Angel crossover, with them standing and smiling/laughing-- she even looked prettier there. I don't think the longer hair is at all as attractive as the chin-length hair of seasons 4 and 5 of BTVS.

But from what I read, not that many people think so.


On a different note, quiz:


You are Dirty Girls! Even though you horrified the
fandom, you gave us Faith fighting a Vulcan,
hot Spaith action and Father Tightpants.

Heh. Vulcan-slaying. A sacred calling. The most important job in the verse. I am... Shaka the Vulcan Slayer. Also known as StVS.

Really, I thought my fandom was above this sort of thing.

Oh well. At least it's tasteful enough and has recognizable punctuation.

I agree with you about Ally Hannigan. She always does look prettier off of the show. Maybe it's because outside she's allowed to smile and have fun and not look all pinched with that perpetual guilty, kicked-puppy expression.

Really, I thought my fandom was above this sort of thing.


You know, i kinda did too. The banner is tasteful and everything, but... For me, i always saw those banners as a last ditch effort to promote a sinking 'ship created by extreme fans like the ducks or kittens. And that is my greatest fear for our fandom once the show ends. I never want to be accused of "quacking".

Yeah. And I took semi-great lengths to gloat about the idiocy of it all. And then one of us does it--- it's a hard pill to swallow. But at least it's simple and constistant and reasonably asthetic.

Can I just say how much I freakin' adore your icon??

Yeah, I never want to be accused of being Duck-like either. Once the show ends, even if Spike does end up going to AtS, I'm letting the ship go-- I don't want to be hanging onto something that isn't ever gonna happen.

crap. dont' read that.

frap. Crap. You weren't talking about my icon. That's why it's best to read these things on LJ instead of your inbox....

Rashaka, don't worry, I love your musical icon too! :-)

Isn't it awesome? Man, wish i could take credit for it, but all of it goes to sekhmet_ra_ over at buffy_icons.

Well, what does letting the 'ship go mean? Cause, okay, when the show ends, i will accept that that is the end of the two characters. Together or apart, the show ended and so did their onscreen relationship. But...Well, I'll still be reading S/B fics, you know? And I'm a mod over at an S/B board and it's become a kind of haven that i don't want to give up. I'm just unclear about what is simply still enjoying a show that has ended, as well as a relationship that was portrayed on it, and becoming obsessive and delusional like the ducks.

hm...I'm guessing when i start referring to the characters as RealBuffy and RealSpike, as opposed to the apparent fake ones onscreen, that will be the point and time i would be quacking.

heehee:)

I'll stilll be reading fic. Like for Farscape.

that will be the point and time i would be quacking.

If you feel you must take a trip to egypt after the last episode (whatever that may be), I'll make quack quack noises at you to bring you back to your senses.

Unless I'm already on the plane, in which case I expect you to either drage me off kicking and screming or join me and bring food.

Oh, I'll still be reading Spuffy fiction and hanging out at the Spuffy boards. I just mean that I'm not going to convince myself that Spike and Buffy will have a happily-ever-after, and I'm not going to send Joss hate letters if he doesn't put them back together after S7. (Of course, there will be hate letters if he had some kind of a Bangel happily-ever-after ending.)

I want to still be able to enjoy the ship and the show, and I know I always will, but I just don't want to become overly obsessive and delusional about the ship's actual probability past season seven, y'know?

Ah, okay :) I will be there with you. I mean, i will enjoy the scenarios after the season finale in fanfic (because i think there will be aplenty this summer), but i will accept the end of the show as being THE END.

Even at the board that i frequent, we've decided we are going to be very careful to make sure it doesn't turn all Duck-y or Kitten-y, that it doesn't become a bitter graveyard of sorts where there is just mourning and longing. We would like it to continue to be as uplifting and positive as it is now, because we feel that is the most respectful tribute to this wonderful story we've been given.
