Happy Birthday Crazydiamondsue!
Happy Birthday you crazy diamond, Sue!
Reasons for loving Sue:
1. Sue's writing makes my speaking English good.
2. One day, I'll have humor, whimsey, banter. And on that day Sue will still have more.
3. I've seen Sue's heart, and this time, not literally. And I'm telling you, right now, she cares more about your lives than you will ever know. You gotta trust her. She's earned it.
4. There's a sort of Machiavellian ingenuity to her transgressions.
5. Sometimes she has this fantasy that Xander's just gonna grab her and kiss her right on the lips.
6. And the exciting part is that Sue has no ingredients that a human can pronounce, so she doesn't leave you with that heavy food feeling in your stomach.
Sue, you are the best human ever! I adore you! Well, that's the cookie talking, but you rock!

"I resent that! Or possibly thank you."
And you quote Xander! And Willow! And Giles! Those were the best tags, ever.
I'm always so very close to telling you that you're a joy and then thinking....cheesy! But you are. I mean, count the ways - you're my Joy shaped friend.
One day I will write B/A for you. Or try. I always intended to be a canon B/A writer, but well, I got distracted and moved to New York and tried to fulfill that Broadway dream. It was tough sledding, but one day I'm working in the chorus when the big star twisted her ankle...okay, seriously I got distracted by vampire/boy smut. It's a slippery slope! (All that lube.) Thanks, darlin' - this was glorious.
Re: "I resent that! Or possibly thank you."
I wanted to quote only Xander, because you are my Xander-shaped friend. Or uh, you're not, really, you have a very womanly shape. I just was thinking you think like Xander, and hey! Maybe your both Xander! Stoney seems to think so. But anyway Xander never complimented himself on his intelligence so I had to use Giles.
Do you know how much I would love you if you wrote B/A? No more than I do already. But! I would be really happy and possibly lavish compliments and fb and recs all over you. I watched Suprise/Innocence today. I kept thinking about you because it was so birthday-y! But sad. Omg. It still breaks me up, Buffy crying on her bed. And how hawt that Suprise kissing scene is. I don't remember how I got on this subject.
You bring me joy too, except of the non-Joy shaped variety. (((hugs)))
Re: "I resent that! Or possibly thank you."
Seriously, Buffy just wanting the candle to burn always breaks me up.
Re: "I resent that! Or possibly thank you."
I'm too busy hating Joyce at the candle part to really be sad. She's such a fucking bitca. Couldn't even celebrate her girl's bday ON her bday? Ugh.
Re: "I resent that! Or possibly thank you."
Noooo! Joyce love! I always put that down to Buffy being trapped in the sewers and then Angel's bed so Joyce couldn't be there to throw confetti. Of course she wasn't at the surprise party, but that would have spoiled the big reveal in "Becoming" with the whole "Have you tried not being a Slayer?" Poor Joyce, keeping in the dark about the Slayer thing really made her come off as an invisible, Charlie Brown "wah-wah-wah" kind of an adult...
Re: "I resent that! Or possibly thank you."
Oh, sorry. I'm a real Joyce basher. So I won't mention that she came off to me as HIGHLY visible and said, "I don't deserve a daughter like Buffy" more often than "wah-wah-wah".
