Why is Giles having his texts scanned?

[dragonyphoenix]

In the eight episode -  i, robot ... you, jane - why is Giles having his texts scanned? Jenny makes some comment about an index and a database but Giles hasn't gone near it. Given how much of a Luddite Giles is, the database is obviously not for him. He has no interest in using it at all.

It could happen. That's how I got sucked in to writing Giles as the big bad of season 1 (story planning currently in process and probably on-hold during November).

Hold up hold up hold up!

I asked for prompts and NO ONE said "Jenny & Giles + Pants - Go!"?

Right then. I kinda wanna play with that. Though, I can't promise it'll be anything less than crack, because I'm cool like that.

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

Um, sorry? I obviously wasn't thinking at all.

I think a crack!fic would be awesome. ;-)

[clockwork-hart1.livejournal.com]

I love crack!fic. I love just silliness for no reason. It will have nothing to do with scanning books. It will probably have everything to do with pants. Probably.

*laughs* I honestly didn't expect it to have anything to do with scanning books.

How bad is it that after all those prompts, all those awesome, fandom-shaking prompts, that all I can think about now is "pants"?

I'm totally doing the pants one now.

I'm blaming you.

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

Blame? You should be thanking me for such an awesome prompt. Actually Zooey's Bridge (http://zooeys-bridge.livejournal.com/) came up with it, but if you want to thank and praise me, I'm cool with that.

*points to icon*

I prefer to use the term "seduced" ;)

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

*laughs* Well, I did volunteer so I can work with seduced.

But I'm not sure what your icon has to do with it.

[red-satin-doll.livejournal.com]

My icon? oh, Nothing other than *laughing my ass off here*

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

What? I'm nothing more than an object of humor to you? *pout*

Well, okay, *snicker*

[red-satin-doll.livejournal.com]

What? Not at all! You're the person who is making my "fantasy" of a giles as big bad fic a reality. (And you have other great qualites, of course.) ;)

Moreso I'm laughing at myself - but I can switch to a sad Buffy icon.

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm very slowly writing the Giles as the Big Bad fic, as in I'm still in the laying out what I want to happen phases and am about to lose all my free time for a month as I write 50,000 words on my original fic for NaNoWriMo, but yes I am still working on it. ;-)

[red-satin-doll.livejournal.com]

No worries, hon, no pressure. I can definitely wait- a good story is worth waiting for to get it right.

And you have a Frida icon? you are AWESOME.

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

I do adore my Frida icon. I have Frida earrings someplace although I rarely wear jewelry anymore. The earrings have hands dangling from them, not real ones obviously. ;-)

[red-satin-doll.livejournal.com]

Oh thank god, you had me worried for a minute there! *lol*

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

I know. Real hands would be much too heavy, dangling from ears. That's why only Kali gets to wear them and even than as a necklace!

I am so feeling the need for a Kali icon right now.

[red-satin-doll.livejournal.com]

I am so feeling the need for a Kali icon right now.

Do it! Do it! (make one I mean.)

I think our culture needs a Kali and we lack and equivalent - "femme fatale" isn't the same thing.

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

Um, having no idea how to make an icon AND behind on my NaNoWriMo word count already or still. ;-(

Will have to settle for evil!Binky
