The damage to the shop was repaired while we were in LA, so we were able to reopen on Wednesday. Did a fairly brisk business, which seemed to cheer Anya up a great deal. Then last evening, when I got home, there was a message on my answering machine from Eva. Something about a memory problem, and at first I thought she was chiding me for not ( Read more... )

Such confusion in the hotel today! The giant started making godawful noises out in the courtyard once the tranquilizers wore off, made it bloody difficult to sleep last night! The fairy tale characters milling about all day was trying at best. Willow finally brought in the other prince, and he didn't quite seem to get the fact tht she was married ( Read more... )

We are beginning to make some headway on rounding up the story characters. A number of talking animals have found their way to the hotel, including three pigs, the blind mice, and a donkey. The waffles are delicious; I have no idea how he makes them with hooves. And I am rather amazed I can relate all of that with a straight face ( Read more... )

Well, so far I've not seen many of these so called fairy tale characters. I've spent most of my time in the office with Wes, helping him research how to put a magical barrier up in the courtyard of the hotel. Seems Spike spotted a "giant" that needs to be contained until we can send it back to fairyland. Not that I necessarily believe this, Spike ( Read more... )

When I listened to Spike's message about Angel calling to say there were fairy tale characters running about Los Angeles...well, let's just say I had a rather good laugh. But then I thought about Dylan and his penchant for opening portals willy-nilly, and decided it was perhaps not so far-fetched. I gave Angel a ring and he started going on about ( Read more... )

I suppose I should be very thankful I didn't lose my job at the museum while I was under that spell. When I went in Monday morning, several people looked at me very strangely and tried to steer my clear of the more delicate artifacts. Apparently I hadn't been my usual careful self of late. As if that weren't bad enough, Xander, Willow and the ( Read more... )

I can't believe Dylan--and Tori!--did something so dangerous. Both knew the ensouling spell was imminent, yet they chose to attempt to send Emily Anne back to her own dimension at the same time. We are probably very lucky that some massive chaotic spell did not result. The question now is whether either spell went off as planned. There's no way of ( Read more... )

Bloody hell, I woke up with such a headache this morning and it won't seem to go away. It didn't help that I was in Anya's bed (fully clothed, thank goodness!) with the awful memory of Xander popping out of the closet in the middle of--oh lord! Anya was asleep on the sofa, so I tiptoed out and drove home ( Read more... )

Anya's keeping some sort of secret from me. She came in a few days ago looking quite smug, but she wouldn't tell me why. Then yesterday morning, as we were relaxing after having an energetic go at it, I happened to lean over to tie my shoes and noticed something glowing under the bed. Strange little jar with something sparkly inside. Beginning to ( Read more... )

Dawn's still missing and everyone seems to be in a dither about it, scouring town looking for her. Well, Anya doesn't seem too concerned about it, and really, Dawn's a big girl and ought to be able to take care of herself. Probably just wanted to get out from under Buffy's watchful eye for a bit of a lark ( Read more... )
