My Articles of Faith. Ahem.

[stoney321]

First off, y'all guessed all the movie quotes except #8: Ha HO, don't hit anybody! That would be Farmer Ted to Jake in Sixteen Candles, right before he drove the Prom Queen home. (I heard the grill alone cost 5 Grand! Do you have 5 grand? I don't have 5 grand! - So don't hit anybody.) My love for Farmer Ted knows no bounds...

crazydiamondsue poked me because I'm not doing anything in the fandom. Well, this is kinda sorta fandom related. Well, most of it.

• I believe in the deepest part of my soul that babies and toddlers know that Wal-Mart is evil, and THAT is why they FRICKIN' CRY AS SOON AS THEY GET IN THE DOOR. AND DON'T STOP. Until they are safe in their cars moving away from the evil Big-Box.


• I believe with deepest fervor that if I don't exercise every day, I get in a funk. A funk that can only be repaired by a sunny day and me being in it.


• I know with a certainty (shush) that Angel and Spike made it. They were broken, bruised, and at dust's door, but they made it.


• I believe that Angel and Buffy will want each other for the rest of their existence, and will think about each other in some way, every day, such as when Buffy goes shopping and sees a really well-made 3/4 length coat and gets an ice-pick-stab of pain in her chest - but not literally, her reflexes are too good, or when Angel smells freshly baked cookies. And that will make him simultaneously long for her and sneer at her earlier analogy. But they will never be together and that makes me sad, but glad, because it makes the story better.


• I have conviction that Spike and Buffy will run into each other at some point "on the job" and will be thrilled to see each other, but Buffy will hear about Harmony and make an "ewwww!" face when she hears about the bloody Harmony eyes and will not take it any farther.


• Except for a few years later when she's hard up and Spike is still pretty and they get drunk reminiscing about old times, and Spike will drink a toast to "Charlie" and Buffy will throw herself on him.


• She will slink out and leave a note and Spike will swear "never again." This, I believe.


• I know that if I make myself a plate of nachos with black beans and eye the Cokes in the fridge, I will start my period the next day. In addition, someone in the world is the boss of my menstrual flow and they are fucking it up, and one day I will find them and force menopause on them. We have the technology...


• I believe that Connor has dreams about his dad. And it's Holtz. And he wakes up feeling more alone than the day before.


• I believe that Angel has dreams about Connor. And Holtz is the boy's father. And he wakes up feeling more alone than before.


• I believe FIRMLY that Drusilla will eventually find Connor. And that she will love him. And try to make a new family. And that would be a really kick ass show.


• I know deep down that the writers were phoning it in on Season 7 of Buffy, because I know they didn't want it to end, but knew it had to, like the rest of us. And I can kind of forgive them, because I know they loved her as much as me.


• I believe that Wesley sent a lovely floral arrangement to the Burkles and told them about their beloved daughter's brave death. And had that orchestrated to happen on the chance of HIS death, so he wouldn't be blamed in the afterlife when he was reunited with Winnifred.


• I believe Wesley, in his final moments, had a belief in such a thing. And laughed at himself for it. But still had that last hope.


• I believe that Faith heard about Joyce's death while cooling her heels in prison and cried when the lights were out.


• I believe Willow dumped Kennedy eventually and learned to be strong on her own, and to stop defining herself by who she dated. But it took a very long time.


• I believe I am finished now.

This may sound strange but, I was having a crappy day and reading this made me feel better. I 'm not sure why, but thanks.

<-- I send you laughter.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Crappy day?? NO!! I send you well wished and dreams of yummy food for lunch. GET SOMETHING GOOD! But good for you, too. [/mom]

[winterlive.livejournal.com]

I believe you rock.

These make me sad, but I believe them.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

It makes me very sad, too. And kinda fic-writer-y...

I need more Connor fic. I believe this, too.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

I do not share that belief, but I do believe that you made me the coolest personal icon EVAH.

Heee!

Oh man. That really would be a kickass show, well, if you wrote it.

And dude, Spike and Angel TOTALLY made it. I refuse to believe otherwise.

Man, I still miss that show. :(

I believe that Xander and Willow will move into a retirement home together, and watch videos, and eat junk food, and braid each other's hair. I think they'll grow old together, but they won't do it because they don't have *those kind* of feelings for each other.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

I want that to be a show so BAD!! I miss Connor....

How are YOU doing??

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

YES!! But I believe that Xander will still try and get a little touch, because he's Xander, and Willow won't even look at him, she'll just move his hand back to his lap, give it a pat, and they won't ever talk about it.

And he'll try every few years. Heee!

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

I believe Willow dumped Kennedy eventually and learned to be strong on her own, and to stop defining herself by who she dated. But it took a very long time. Yes. She will believe in life after love. 0_0

I believe all of these things, and I believe that Xander grew up and stopped defining himself by his friends, and realized that Spike and Angel had their good points, and he'll have a beer with them. And it doesn't even have to be slashy. Although I wouldn't complain if it was.

I believe that Buffy got to be happy - whatever that meant.

And I believe in mamas and daddies, and I believe in you. /Don Williams

[winterlive.livejournal.com]

Heh.

I believe you change your LJ layout a lot lately!

I believe Spike and Buffy totally got it on during that pre-Chosen-battle fade-to-black, and I believe it was absolutely the most powerful, emotional experience Buffy's ever had. I believe Spike came away from it with his soul integrated into his personality. Holy crap.

I believe Angel and Angelus are the same fucking person, just like pre and post soul Spike. I believe this HARD.

I believe Angel has a little love in him for every person who's ever got close to him, enemy or friend, just because they were close.

I believe that Cordelia got suckered by her own press at the end of season 3, but that essentially, she was our snarky prom queen princess right through to the end. I miss her so much.

I believe that the chopstick fight scene between her and that girl in Harm's Way was the most hilarious fight scene ever. Hell, Harmony in general has been responsible for some of the funniest moments on BtVS & AtS. But she is a TOTAL DIMWIT with NO SOUL. No redemption for you, Harm.

I believe that Dawn was more than a little bit ashamed of herself for behaving like such a MORON when she was a kid. I also believe she rolled her eyes a little when Buffy wanted to show her the world.

I believe the Mayor totally loved Faith like his own daughter, and that if he'd won, she would have been a queen. That whole relationship is... *bawl*

I believe that Giles is a very sad man. A lot of the time. And I know for a fact that I still can't hear "Tales of Brave Ulysses" without thinking of him in his apartment after Joyce's death, and therefore crying.

I believe that Oz, Lindsey and Cordy should sit down and have coffee.

I believe that you like my icon. *licks you*

"I believe in the soul, the cock, the pussy, the small of a woman's back... "
wait, wrong fandom.

I'm doing okay, but I'm starting to feel that "back to school" anxiety. I've been uploading icons, reading neglected books, running errands, going to barbeques and went to the Jack Johnson concert. Oh, and I mailed your package a few days ago! Anyway, I've missed you! *mwah*

Hey, hey! Check out my new favourite icon. I want to use it all the time. Heeheee!

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

I believe in God the Father, and in his Son, Jesus Christ, and his step-daughter, Mergatroid.

Okay, I don't believe in any of that stuff. Except for Mergatroid. Her I will give my life to. Did you see Katies comment above about Willow and Xander? Hee hee!!

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

*holds lighter up high for Wes and Fred*
*wipes tear*

Feelings mutual, babe. :-D

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

I believe that the Faith/Mayor relationship is THE best daddy/daughter relationship on television EVER. And Veronica/Keith Mars comes a verrrrry close second.

I believe that I cannot figure out a color scheme that pleases me. I believe I know the color hex codes, but I do not know how to plug them into S2.

I believe I will stop fucking around for a bit.

And I miss Cordy. And Harmony. And Giles. And Tara. And Joyce makes me wish I could climb into the tv and make her my mommy so I can actually HAVE one to miss. And I miss Buffy. And Faith. And all of them.

[smashsc.livejournal.com]

I want to believe that Fred was there but I'm sure it was Lilah instead. I'm good with that.

Unrelatedly, you need to need to keep an eye out for a movie called Summer Storm, hopefully coming to a theatre near you at some point soonish. I swear that movie almost killed me dead with the pretty.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

AH HA HA HA!! The icon of HILARITY!! Every night at 11:30 (After Aqua Teen hunger Force) I watch S2 of Arrested Development and I ALWAYS think of you, because you love it like me.

It is going to be FINE! You will not ruin children, the parents will be nice, you will shine, and you will feel good when you get home.

*Sings*
If I believe it... I can achieve it! Hee! Lemme get some poo poo! Gimmie some of that pee pee...

I believe that Dawn was more than a little bit ashamed of herself for behaving like such a MORON when she was a kid. I also believe she rolled her eyes a little when Buffy wanted to show her the world.

Why is Canada so far away? *cries* If Stoney would just sell her ass on her cul-de-sac like I've been telling her, we would have the $$ to come see you and share things like this. With booze. And Cheetos.

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Hee! Yes! Will & Xan - BFF forever. *single perfect fucking tear* This was wonderful - go you!!

[beadattitude.livejournal.com]

::beams happily::

I'm so pouty that I missed the quote post, though.

I got nothin'. I just loved this.

And I gotta get another box for your Western MA carepackage/bday prezzie/unsubtle bribe. ::wiggles eyebrows::

[sweptawaybayou.livejournal.com]

I believe I love you and I'm so glad I found you and your journal.

*kisses you hard*

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Be glad I stopped before I mentioned that I believe that Bert was crying out for help with his pigeon love. And that Mr Hooper died when he saw how Bert was showing his love of pigeons to Ernie.

Be glad I didn't go there.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

POUTY! NO MORE! I've been a bad LJer lately. I HAVE been skimming, and saw that you and Jeff DANCED! And had a lovely day! And you got a dragon!

*hugs you*
