Okay, I need something to get my fannish writing muscles back in shape (we aren't going to talk about the rest of me). So, from bop_radar:

Name a character (from a show I'm familiar with) and I'll give you three (or more) facts about them from my personal canon/fanon.

Buffy Summers.

1. Buffy knows quite well the difference between dumb and ignorant, and knows that, with regard to many things the world values, she is the latter. For a while it was a "why bother?" thing with her, since all she was ever going to do was be the Slayer. To some extent that's still true, since she's going to be doing the leadership thing until she dies for good. She'd like to try college again, or at least she thinks about it wistfully from time to time, but she'll never do it. And that's one reason she doubts she and Angel will ever work it out. That little flash of disappointment in his eyes when she missed some cultural reference never stopped hurting, and it never will.

2. She thinks about Willow that way sometimes. Knows it would be a mistake. Never thinks about Faith that way, because even if it would be a mistake it might not matter.

3. She once asked Giles how old the oldest Slayer got. He changed the subject. She figures she's been it for at least three-four years.

1. I really get the Angel part. I'm still trying to amass all those cultural references during my last year. I stopped 'dating' someone for the same reason.

2. Hehe...like the B/W pondering, love the B/F; that was my fandom couple for so long and this phrase makes me want to go searching for fic.

3. LOVE this.

Thank you.

Thanks! B/F was such an obvious big drama; I always wondered about what B/W would be like; maybe not dramatic at all.

I think it would be all snuggles and soft touches and home.
