sdwolfpup's journal has been turned over to the pure love of Buffy and Owen (from season 1's Never Kill a Boy on the First Date)
This works out nicely for me, because I love the episode, love Owen and his proto-Rileyness, and I got to snag me a snazzy new icon. Offy 4eva.
:ponders what might have been:
ETA: suddenly thought of a variation on the rants meme. Sort of. Gimme a pairing, I'll burble about why they're awesome, even if it's Angel/Clem.

on 2005-01-28 01:19 am (UTC)Hmm, um... Buffy/Cordy and/or Buffy/Gunn, since those were winning your rare Buffy pairings poll last time I checked.

on 2005-01-28 11:30 pm (UTC)Buffy *was* Cordelia not so long before we first met her - she says as much to Angel in Helpless. And Cordelia (somewhat) becomes Buffy as she gets the visions and her own mission.
Angel, if I'm not the Slayer, what do I do? What
do I have to offer? - Buffy, Helpless
Sure I hate looking and feeling like this, but - if I lose the visions, I wouldn't be able to help you anymore. You wouldn't need me. - Cordelia, That Vision Thing
Getting beyond the fact that they're not-dissimilar hot chicks with superpowers (well, for some of canon, in Cordy's case) - they'd be *fun*. There'd be endless bitchy arguments and fashion clashes and shopping for shoes. Cordelia, like Gunn (tying nicely into my next squee) would keep Buffy grounded, stop her from getting too far into her I Am the Mission, I Am the Law bit.
In conclusion, I would kill for a long, plotty story that puts them together some time in the high school years. And people should send me stuff for Volcano Girls (http://www.exitseraphim.net/volcanogirls) or join

I love the poss with that.

no subject
on 2005-01-28 01:53 am (UTC)There's also the metaphysics. Neither of them should exist (child of two vampires, mystical energy made human) and they were specifically created for - I was going to write 'evil' but come to think of it, the Key was made Dawn-shaped and sent to Buffy to prevent Glory from opening the rift between dimensions and ending all existence. Connor's birth was manipulated by Jasmine, who you could look at as a great evil or a great good.
Add into the mix the fact that they're both teenagers, they have similar personalities (post-Origin, anyway) and the history between his dad and her sister... yeah, there needs to be more Connor/Dawn.

on 2005-01-28 11:42 pm (UTC)I'll admit that quit a lot of the time I write stuff that isn't incredibly deep (and would do this even more frequently if I wrote longer stuff). My default setting is '[romantic] comedy with vampires' and Joyce fits into that very nicely. I think she's a rebellious minx under the veneer of respectable single mom, and with Graham as her strait-laced straight man, you've got your screwball comedy set-up right there. Throw into the mix the fact that Graham's best friend is dating Joyce's daughter and the Initiative/Slayer secret identities, and you've got a comedy of errors. Which, admittedly, would put most people right off. But that's my thing, so it makes me happy.

on 2005-01-31 07:12 am (UTC)GOD yes.
I really must think on Joyce/Graham more, but I just love what you've said about them here. :)
