Well, if we followed the recipe...should be cake. A demon-violence-free-zone cake.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Yep, that's one of my favourites too, Tep. See the filk it inspired from one of the people who read McTabby's journal: Duelling Queen

I don't know if anyone else has been following HonorH's Official Buffy & Angel Fanfiction University, but here's a supporting document for the fic 'verse's Protectors of the Plot Continuum. It includes some of my favorite pet peeves.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
This isn't right:
1.2. Causing the Scoobies to arrive in Los Angeles within an hour or so of leaving Sunnydale, or causing the Angel Investigations crew to arrive in Sunnydale within an hour or two of leaving L.A. (Sunnydale is in Northern California, Los Angeles in Southern California)
Sunnydale is demonstrably not in Northern California. It's most likely Santa Barbara in disguise. So about 2.5 hours north of LA.

You are correct.
They are incorrect, and should be corrected.

Well, to some people here, everything north of Santa Clarita is Northern California.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm sorry, I'm confused. I thought the only thing north of Santa Barbara was San Francisco.

No, there's a bunch of cows for a couple of hundred miles in between.

SLO's north of it, IIRC.
At least, I'm fairly certain Santa Barbara was part of our last leg down, but it's all kind of a blur.
I sent in this Pedantic Canon Correction.
Sunnydale is explicity said to be in Southern California.
From Welcome to the Hellmouth:
"The front of the affluent Southern California school gleams darkly in the moonlight."
"A day as bright and colorful as the night was black and eerie. Students pour in before first bell, talking, laughing. They could be from anywhere in America, but for the extremity of their dress and the esoteric mania of their slang. This is definitely So Cal."
Buffy also says about Sunnydale that it's "two hours on the freeway from Neiman Marcus." This would put it near Santa Barbara.

oh-- that's right. Silly me for forgetting, especially since Sean was mooing at them for most of those miles.
