Hmmm....

I am tempted to sign up for the Girl Saves Boy fic-a-thon.



But I'm completely unsure of what I'd write. I feel like it's way too obvious for me to write Buffy saving Spike (though obviously in character--I love how Spike so often plays the damsel in distress--yay gender reversals!). I don't want to sing up unless I've got a really set plan. Any thoughts? Are y'all signing up? What fandoms are you writing for? This is a fantastic idea for a fic-a-thon, so I hope lots of people get involved.

Oooh. A nice spin. There could be some interesting stuff there; I've always felt their relationship was more complicated than we ever really got to see onscreen.

Also, that sounds like something [livejournal.com profile] snickfic should write, don't you think? ;D

People are talking about me, I see. *eyebrow*

I actually have a Dawn-and-Giles thing on the back burner already, but it wouldn't fit with the theme of the ficathon.

We talk about you aaaaaaall the time!

I look forward to reading it, if you ever take a whack at it!

Oh oh oh! DAWN SAVES SPIKE. That is so you.

I am now slightly tempted to do a post-NFA fic wherein Dawn hasn't quite forgiven Spike but secretly wants to and then she has to save him and does and they repair their relationship once and for all. Because I will NEVER FORGIVE JOSS for what he did to them. Never.

But I already wrote that in Seraph. During the climax, even.

That's probably why it sounds like me. *g*

Is there some rule that says you can only do that once? :-P There's plenty of other situations in which Dawn could save him.

I kind of want to see a S5 fic where she saves him by doing something completely ridiculous and preteen-esque. Or Lauren's post-NFA idea.
snickfic: (Spike-Dawn no good)

I do like Lauren's post-NFA idea a great deal.

Well, that makes me smile!
