Buffy and Angelus painting based on their confrontation scene in Innocence! Always been a huge fan of the dramatic lighting in this scene! Or y'know, what the lighting originally looked like before they remastered the life out of it....

also reminder as ever that if u guys like my art I still have commissions open! check out my pinned post for info!

Snooped Magazine

You might remember Angel having a stint on the gossip magazines when he was protecting Rebecca Lowell. I wrote a fic, Being Known, that included it for @iwillrememberyoumarathon and thought I'd share it here too.

Summary of Being Known: Buffy sees Angel on the cover of Snooped and a late night phonecall ensues. Set during the summer between S4 & S5 of Buffy and S1 & S2 of Angel.

The light-hearted banter slipped away, replaced by a charged sense of anticipation. There was a line, an intimacy, they were quickly approaching that they both knew led to danger. They had rules for these conversations, understood but never spoken, and he had just broken one - never reference the past.

And look, I got a cool toy surprises!

She Promised

 @iwillrememberyoumarathon

First of all. I absolutely love Bangel, and it's been my absolute pleasure to be part of the IWRY Marathon (thank you so much to all involved in making this event possible!)

So... this is one of the first times I've done a gif, and the first time I've done one for a fandom. As for what's behind this piece... it's always been my headcanon that when Buffy promised she'd never forget, she kept that promise, even if no one ever knew.

I also decided to create a simple wallpaper to go with the gif. The idea is the same as with the gif, representing Buffy's promise to never forget, and that even as years passed, even with everything she went through, she never did.

Bangel forever... that's the whole point...

I Will Remember You Marathon 2023

My art submission to complement all the amazing fanfiction we've received this year for IWRY.

Created in Clip Studio using chalk brushes and a lot of references!

Buffy rarely thought far ahead. And even when she did, her thoughts didn't go this far. Years if ever have passed, but only now she realizes she never considered the morning after.

On dialogue tags

I think the only thing that pulls me out of a story faster than overuse of fancy alternatives to "said" is when the writer has an allergy to identifying characters by pronouns or even their names. "The tall one"/"the blond one"/"the firstborn"/etc. It's like a series of little unnecessary riddles getting in the way of what's going on in the scene. It doesn't help paint a picture of the characters involved and sometimes makes it harder to tell how many characters I'm supposed to be keeping track of. Please, I am begging you, just use their names. In most cases, that'll work best and won't feel repetitive to the reader. Besides, I have a hard enough time remembering characters' names when they appear the right amount in the story!

The main exceptions that come to mind are:

If the PoV character doesn't know names of other characters yet, it's a good opportunity to think about which physical trait would jump out at them most, but this is probably best as a short-term strategy and they should learn names quickly.

If the characters you aren't naming are too minor to bother giving names, such as a group of vampire goons Buffy has to fight, pronouns and one memorable descriptor each should be enough to get her to the end of combat. "Goatee Guy," "Bad Bangs," "Sewer Breath," etc. Sometimes it's funny to go even more basic and identify them as "Goons 1, 2, and 3."

If you're writing about a character who is particularly defined by their profession or a certain descriptor, using that one repeatedly to identify them can be very effective. For example, in the Witcher books, the omniscient narrator uses "the Witcher" more often than "Geralt," which works very well in a setting where the general public is highly suspicious of Witchers and questions their humanity, and sometimes Geralt himself isn't so sure about his capacity for human emotion.

The main point remains, though, that using a wide array of descriptors in all the places where a pronoun or name will suffice can be very ineffective and distracting.

Only 11 days left! I'm in trouble!

I rewatched the first few S6 eps of Buffy for one of the IWRY fics I'm writing. As a rule, I stay very far away from that season. But ho boy is there an Autism unmasking analogy to be made about Buffy's experience of being resurrected. I didn't know I was autistic the last time I watched these EPs and it was alot experiencing this new layer of understanding to what she goes through.
