Marriage of Convenience

Here is my contribution to plot_wout_porn. It's the only fic I've managed to complete this year and sadly is not nearly as plotty as seems appropriate. Well, there is plotting, but I'm not sure that's quite the same thing. :) Anyway, at least there's no porn. I hope you all enjoy and will strive to do better next year ( Read more... )

I did enjoy. Very much :)

It was hilarious and sweet, a wonderful combination. And Clem/Joyce? Brilliant!

:) I always thought Joyce would go more for personality than looks.

Thanks for reading. I'm glad you enjoyed it, and sorry for being so so replying.

Excellent funny, fluffy story. As always your dialogues feel particularly natural. So many crunchy, hilarious details but the best one has to be Giles and Drusilla as his fellow maid of honor. Grumpy Giles, pouty Spike, funny bossy Buffy, dorky Willow and her very very warped logic... You captured very well the mood of the episode.

"Giles scowled at them both. "I was - thankfully - still blind on that occasion. I don't remember much about it."" Hee, poor Giles, thank God for small mercies! :-)

Thank you so much, love. Sorry for the slow reply. Things have been frantic this week.

Glad you liked the idea of Dru as a bridesmaid. I think Willow probably had her work cut out.

That was cute! Nice work building on the Spike/Buffy dynamic from Something Blue. Your Willow made me grin (and I can certainly see her and Anya managing to get Xander on board). Poor Giles. :-)

Yes, poor old Giles. He never stood a chance. Probably, he should invest in some ear plugs.

Thanks for reading, love. Glad you enjoyed it.

Haven't got the time to read this in this flaming net cafe, but have marked it up for a later date. *g*

"And we should all seize happiness where we find it," Willow went on. "Shouldn't we?"
I love that logical and soothing Willow.

That must have been some wedding - a slayer and a vampire, Clem and Joyce and Dru with her demon and blind Giles!

Willow's explanation: "Who knows? The attraction of opposites? I mean, she's a Slayer, he's a vampire. You can't get more opposite-y than that. Also, I think he has a big thing for strong women, and Buffy is…well, she's super-strong. And kind of bossy."

Lovely Willow voice!

Hee! Yes, I feel almost inclined to write another fic about it.

Glad you liked the Willow voice and thanks very much for reading and commenting.
