You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I, uh, wrote a fanfic about that years ago.

And I read it.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Great minds think alike ;P Link?

Ask her. I didn't save it. I just read it. A few times.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Um, good question. Let me see if I can rustle it up.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I think Theodore Sturgeon - or someone writing when he was - did something along those lines.

And with all the zombie stories around now, how would a zombie apocalypse affect Christian celebrations of the eucharist? transubstantiation and all that ....

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I don't think it was Steph's, but I read a long Buffy/Spike that used that premise some time ago.

One problem with Erin's notion - you'd have to keep them separate from each other. If everybody syncs up it defeats the purpose.

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)

I woke up early this morning and couldn't fall back to sleep, so I started reading Will Grayson, Will Grayson, and I just finished it.

Fantastic.

Hey. New board.

Isn't? What an unrealistic but totally awesome-to-read book!
