-What names/endearments can you actually see Angel using? (Would he call Buffy “sweetheart”? Would he call Cordy “my love”? Would he call Spike “lad”? Would he call Wesley “sex kitten”? et al) When he was soulless he called Buffy "lover" and once "my love", but honestly I don't see him as the type to use endearments. For B/A, at any rate, they always said each other's names in a way that would make endearments superflous (okay, that sounds like something out of a really bad romance novel). -What about Buffy? (I know she calls Angel “honey” in an episode. Would she ever call him “hon”? Would she ever call Faith “precious”? Would she ever call Spike “daddy”?) No idea. -Did Angelus ever once refer to his souled self as “soul boy”? (I know others did.) I don't think so, but I haven't seen all of the S4 Angelus arc. -What’re your views on using the term “childe” in a fic? There's no canon term for that word, so I think it's okay to use in description, but I don't like seeing it in dialogue. -Am I the only one who’s uncomfortable calling actors by their first names when talking about them? No. I like initials. Although I have no problem calling Joss by his first name. -What kinda name is Boreanaz? No idea. Italian sounds plausible.
I'm new to lj, and I don't read smut, so I'll let everyone else answer those questions :)
