Oh, hidey ho, ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif) whedonosity members. April sees me turning another year older, the start of the baseball season, and the closing of this community. If I were a poetic person, I'd make a whole speech about beginnings and endings, the circle of life, and so on. But I'm not, so let's just pretend that I quoted any or all of The Lion King to you just now, and that you are amazed by my very being.
Hakuna Matata, people. And a warthog.
You know, I still remember the very first time I watched Buffy. I'd heard that Buffy the Vampire Slayer was being turned into a show, and I remember thinking, "Huh. Well, I guess it'll be a comedy. Eh, I'll watch one ep." So I tuned into Welcome to the Hellmouth and, like, it wasn't a comedy. I mean, it was funny, but it was also dark, and a little scary, and, for a show about vampires, amazingly real. Plus, it had that awesome British guy from the Tasters' Choice commercials. I was sold, and remained a loyal fan through its entire run. I got involved with fandom in and around season six, and because of Buffy I've met so many awesome people, including my lovely and talented co-mod, and done things I never thought I would do. (Fly to LA to meet a whole bunch of people I don't know? Sure!) So even when there were down times, even when FX aired large blocks of Riley-centered episodes, through Beer Bad and, well, Beer Bad, I remember everything that has happened to me because of a short little blonde girl who kicked a lot of ass. And I smile.
And one of those wonderful things is this community, so let's get on with the results, shall we?
( Hi, I'm Buffy. )
( Close your eyes. )
( If we can focus, keep discipline, and not have quite as many mysterious deaths, Sunnydale is gonna *rule*! )
( I walk, I talk, I shop, I sneeze. I'm gonna be a fireman when the flood rolls back. )
( I wish that Joyce didn't die. Because she was nice and now we all hurt. )
( Of course! Clearly our number is a retro pastiche that's never going to be a breakaway pop hit. )
( Looks like the Hellmouth is officially closed for business. )
Such pretty Buffy icons. Yay for Buffy! By the way, I *just* got an excited phone call from a friend of mine, in which she told me all about how the girl who played Kennedy has come out. She's very excited, because of how she once touched her butt, or something. I don't know.
