Look! I made a poll!
1. Gah! I got up and read through my post from last night, and there was grammar!fail everywhere! So many wrong words! Why didn't y'all tell me? I'm so embarrassed!
But I seriously blame it on how hopped-up on upset-ness I was because of the race!fail argument (wow. Awkward syntax much?). My apologies.
2.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
angearia has obliged me, as she is wont to do because she is wonderful, and written me Buffy and Spike ice skating fic! The Cutting Edge references! Flashbacks to Fanged Four days! Flirty adorableness! A title from a Frost poem! Greek mythology references! General sweetness! Go forth and read!
3. I was surprised and delighted by all the Angel/Darla love in the thread last night. DARLA DARLA DARLA. It inspired me to do a poll!
The first question is just about Angel's canon relationships (and no, Spangel shippers, "one time" doesn't count as canon--sex only counts as a relationship if you do it often enough ;D), and you can only pick one. With the second: go wild!
One caveat on that one, though: I think a lot of us are of the opinion that just about any pairing can work of the author is extraordinary. But this isn't a crack!pairing-that-might-work-under-the-right-circumstances questions. It's more a, "Can you imagine various scenarios in which a variety of various decent writers could make this work?" Or, alternately: "Pretend these people are real. Which one would really work?"
And the final question is just me being silly.

Tis 'cause I ♥ Lauren!
And why are you so funny! Why are all these choices so funny! You're so happy today! *hugs* It's making me happy 'cause the joy is infectious!
no subject
But I kind of love the idea of me trying to make a point through BAD GRAMMAR.
I ♥ you more!
I don't know! Where is this stuff coming from? I couldn't tell you? But I am super hyper today, and I'll probably get annoying soon, so feel free to smack me around! *hugs* Yay for all of us being happy!
And tell me you appreciated my V/L quote used in the context of A/D.
no subject
V/L quote FTW. YES. JUST YES.
(Confession: I feel like the odd one out because while in theory I understand the appeal of Angel/Darla, I, uh, don't get it. Like at all. I don't think I can get any sort of Angel/relationship. The only one I ever enjoyed was Buffy/Angel, but that was back when I was like young and stupid or something. So I've historically enjoyed Buffy/Angel and can see the appeal, but that's only because Buffy is my girlfriend and I'm all for her. So when she's feeling smiley, I'm all yay Buffy! But when it comes to Angel/Anyone I just don't get it. ANGEL IS A EUNUCH, OKAY?)
no subject
(Hey, I've never understood the appeal of, say, Wes. So I totally get your feeling odd-man-out. Admittedly, I've only seen AtS one time, but everything just seemed to come to life when Darla was around, especially Angel. Which appealed to me. Who knows how I'd feel this time through?
Buffy is my girlfriend, too! So yeah: if I really thought he could make Buffy happy, I'd (grudgingly) be okay with it. I just really don't think he would. Regardless: YAY BUFFY!
And I don't have any desire to think about Angel having sex. EUNUCH INDEED. I just prefer his interactions--romantic/sexual or otherwise--with Darla and Cordy than with anyone else.)

Inserting Wedding Singer quotage when appropriate is appropriate.
Drew Barrymore: Sometimes I think I'm meant to roam the world alone
Adam Sandler: Like the Incredible Hulk?
THIS is my Angel.
no, seriously. I've always used this quote to talk about Angel's love life. If he never has sex, his martyr syndrome is totally amped to +1000000! It's a good thing!
no subject
Really?
"God doesn't want you. But I do."
It's *glorious*.

*pouts*
Maybe I should try rewatching AtS again and specifically work on the Angel/Darla'ing.
