I'm in a polly kind of mood!

[lirazel]

I have come to two conclusions:

1. Shipper Wars are stupid.
2. I miss choco_cherries and crossovers in general (the rest of this conversation will make more sense if you familiarize yourself with the comm. WHICH IS THE GREATEST COMM EVER).

These two conclusions have met each other and exploded into an idea of awesome: forget about pairing The Greatest Person in the Universe (aka Buffy Summers) with only people on her own show! Crossovers are better!

So I've decided that for the duration of silliness, whenever the Shipping Wars threaten to pop up, I will immediately wax poetical about my favorite Buffy ship. The catch: it's with someone who isn't even in the Buffyverse! People will become confused! And distracted! Scott Allie might make fun of me in a Q&A! Poor "Spray" fan! It'll be awesome!

But the question is: Who will be the other half of that ship? That's what this poll will help me determine!

I've already written Buffy/Tommy and you may have noticed me flailing with joy over John Crichton mentioning Buffy and we all know how I feel about anything remotely involving Enver Gjokaj, so they're the front-runners at this point. But I am open to suggestions! Convince me!


[Poll #1550370]

*Someone mentioned the idea of Enver playing Spike on Gabs' journal, and now I desperately want fic in which a post-"Chosen" heartbroken Buffy gets Victor imprinted with Spike's personality so that she can tell him all the things she never got to say to him....

Emmie, could I write that for the "Who Are You?" fic-a-thon?

Wanna hear my really real crossover OTP? Joyce Summers and Keith Mars. My all-time favorite TV single parents - I figure they do match.com with a very large match radius that spans from Neptune to Sunnydale, on the first date they both make euphemisms about the trouble their daughters get into, and Sunnydale could certainly use some good detectives in town . . . actually, when I planned this in my head, it was all about Joyce, Buffy, and Dawn trying to blend their family with Keith and Veronica - with Veronica becoming friends with Spike because of mutual snarkage (she does like those obligatory psychotic jackasses, you know - oh, and Backup likes Spike because Spike growled him into adoring submission - and Spike doesn't know why the dog follows him around so much), and Logan driving up the coast at midnight one night because he misses Veronica and stays with the family for a while (with Xander harassing Logan because he grew up on Aaron Echolls movies, and Willow creeping him out because she looks so much like Trina) . . . then they both enroll at UC Sunnydale. The end.
