Points for Team Buffy!

[radio_silent]

whedonland's writing challenges have been getting me back into the fanfiction in a big way. not as big a way as my first real full-length fanfic (a crossover, at that!) that's in the editing stages right now (i'm super, super excited about that, btw), but when team buffy needs points, i come a-writing. here are three samples of the writing i've done for

"Magic" is absolutely beautiful! I love Tara, especially the inner strength you don't always see... and I think you brought that out very nicely here. I don't imagine she likes violence, so her pride in solving a problem without traditional weapons is so very Tara, as well.

And "Birds and Bees" is cute, in an "oh, poor Spike" sort of way. I like how he realizes falling for Tara is good for Willow, and only afterward realizes that in a way, it's a disappointment to him.

thanks!

haha, same with me, which is why i chose "magic" as the weapon to answer the prompt with! : )

yeah, for some reason i got the impression spike was always pretty pro willow and tara. dunno why, though...

[radio_silent]

of course! thank you for the prompt!

Mmmmmm, the Spillow was LOVELY. I'm a rather huge fan of one-side unrequited stuff - cause, um, yummy. Although, technically, both the original bird and the bee in the book are male - but I do like the metaphor. :D

The Willow/Tara one, I agree, isn't like a full-fledged fic or anything, but it's quite nice for a drabble, which isn't supposed to present big-ass ideas anyways. Especially the last two lines - just right.

And haiku! I love haikuuuuuu. *eats*

And thanks for doing the font color thing, I appreciate it!

(Oh and BTW, if you ever need like a beta or something, I do that sometimes. The offer is open.)

really? i never knew that, haha. what original book is it from?

aw, thanks!

haha, haikus should be on the food pyramid somewhere.

oh, good, i'm glad that makes a difference!

thanks! that's really nice of you, and i'll keep it in mind!

It's Perfectly Normal, which is a sex ed book for kids, and has, literally, cartoons of a bird and a bee in the margin talking about sex. My mother's big into sex ed stuff, so I get to learn about these things. :P

Totally. They are like my BFFs.

haha WOW. yeah, i had no idea where the phrase came from, it just seemed to fit with spike's mindset. 0.o

Saw these over at Whedonland. Really great to see where they come from. I'm sure that haiku was one of the ones I voted for and I really love that Spike/Willow ficlet (never shipped them myself but that made me really feel them. Poor Spike). If at first you don't succeed just remember your entries are brilliant anyway. :D

I'd love a sig banner too if you're still up for making some. Don't particularly care what, though something from Buffy, Firefly or Dr Horrible would be fantastic. :)
