The Message Board Fanfic Project (Comments thread)

[Emcee]

Just a brief little comment... "Sweet boy" was Cordy/Jasmine's name for Connor. Darla called him "Darling boy".

[Buffy8Fan]

Thank you for the correction.

However it is already up and it took me forever to write that. I can only type with one hand so it takes me a while to type even the smallest things even if I have learned to be quite skilled at it.

I learned in an Imaginative Writing class I took that if you make a goof like that and it gets printed or in this case, updated onto a forum that the best way to corrected it is to work it into the story. So here is the first and hopefully the only hint you will ever get at anything that will happen in The Message Board Fanfic Project. I am going to work the fact that Darla is calling Connor "My Sweet Boy" instead of "My Darling Boy" for a reason.

Of course I also have to come up with the next part of the story and once again I invite others to join in. It is a group project.

[Buffy8Fan]

I didn't have time to make the correction yet but I'm hoping I will soon.

As for what Salome saw. I know what I knew it to be but I think unless anyone else decides to put anything in that it will just be left that way. A mystery.

[Wind Fish]

Hmmm... there's about six different ways I could go on the Salome thing. I'm inwardly rolling my eyes at about all of them, but I've also decided that this would be a good time to try things I don't think I'd normally do. We're supposed to have fun with this, right?

Also, I've been sitting here for a long time wanting to add something to the government conspiracy and not doing it. I think I'm finally going to go ahead and pull the trigger on it though.


EDIT: Apparently, since I didn't actually commit to anything, I'm still iffy about bringing someone else back. I do have a backup plan in case I don't go through with it. Or, how 'bout this: Someone make up my mind for me. Yeah, that's the best plan.

[Buffy8Fan]

I realized in my last update or two that I made another mistake. This one was a little larger than "Darling Boy" and "Sweet Boy."

This mistake has Rona as being alive. She's dead as of TNP's episode 'The Vampire Slayer.' I thought for sure I picked all potentials turned slayers who were alive. The problem was I forgot to run through TNP's episodes and not just Buffy season seven.

If anyone has any suggestions on how to rectify this please let me know.

[Buffy8Fan]

I just made an update and have fixed both problems, hopefully (knock on wood).

For Wind Fish I apologize if you actually wanted it to be Jules, but I chose for it not to be for two reasons. One I needed to correct my mistake of Rona. and two I am not a hundred percent sure her death was natural or mystical. She was stabbed but the blood was used mystically. And Joss Whedon's rules say only mystical deaths can be resurrected.

[Wind Fish]

Don't feel bad about Rona. I forgot too. I'm choosing to blame it on The Destroyer, cause I've been re-reading old episodes that she's been in.

But yeah, that's okay. I had decided against it really being her anyway. If I feel the need to get a Jules fix, I can start a different fic or just re-read the first few episodes.

[Buffy8Fan]

I had back myself into a corner when I wrote Rona back in. I wrote her in to correct a mistake, then didn't know what to do once I wrote her in. Now though I think I have finally figured it out and I hope everyone likes it as well as my ultimate bad guy.

I also realized when writing this last part ow much like 24 this fanfiction is like. Bad guy is taking orders from bad guy and he's taking orders from bad guy. But in this last installment I think I have (hopefully) finally gotten to the top of that list of command.

[Buffy8Fan]

I was going to update this today but I had a meeting and only had time for little updates. So I'll have time to think more about how to continue. Unless someone else updates first.

[Buffy8Fan]

This last update is short because I didn't know exactly where to go from here and know one is helping by updating with me. The invitation is open all the time.

[Wind Fish]

I’ve been wanting to continue this, but except for that one day a couple weeks ago I haven’t been able to shake my self-inflicted writer’s block. I think I know a temporary solution for that though so I’ll try to type something up this weekend.

By the way, I like what you did with Tucker. I was thinking along the same lines (maybe it is the 24 influence). Actually, I had been wondering if anyone reading this thing thought I made a mistake with Suvarta. In that case, at least, anything I did wrong was intentional.

[Buffy8Fan]

When I started this last update I still had no idea what I was going to write, however the second I wrote down where they ended up the rest of it seemed to just work. As for the little ending to the post, I hope none of you are mad.

[Buffy8Fan]

I still don't know exactly where to go on this but I am hoping with the few idea I have OR with someone else's update, I can get an idea soon.

[Buffy8Fan]

I updated. A section at the watchers council in England. Then at the battle scene. Then a small Tucker segment.

[Buffy8Fan]

Nobody has touched this fanfiction in about twenty-two months so I decided to do so again. Once school starts I won't know when or if I'll have time for anything fun until spring or even summer break. But I am going to start up again on this and maybe on other one shots.
