Gakked from [livejournal.com profile] rahirah. This is the best ever.

"Open the Word doc of your fic. Click AutoSummarise (on the tools menu), when it has autosumarised tell it to put the output in a new document and that you want the summary to be 100 words or less. The shorter the fic the more coherent sense the summary will make, but the long ones are funnier."

I worked really hard on 5 Ways NFA Probably Didn't End, and I'm more proud of it than almost anything I've written. But oft times the pride wavers and I feel bad that I didn't clean it up more; it's so dense and needs to be cleaner, shorter, clearer. Now I see my work has all been done for me. So in case you ever wanted to read it but were afraid of it, here you go.



Angel, Spike? “Shh,” Buffy said.

Buffy stirred. “Spike?”

“Angel. “Angel,” she repeated. Buffy asked.

“Spike?”

“Angel,” she repeated. Blocks away, Angel was. “No,” Angel said. Buffy, you can’t—”

“Dawn, no!” Buffy was screaming.

Fell.

It sounds like Angel.”

“Buffy . . . ?” Angel gasped.

“Angel. “Angel?” Angel’s hands tightened on her. “I’m not Buffy.”

Angel immediately released her. “Spike," Angel said. “Fuck, Angel,” he breathed. Angel sneered. Angel’s hand loosened a fraction.

Spike.” Angel let go. “Dawn.” Almost obediently, Angel followed.

“Connor! “Spike.”

Angel.”

“Angel.” “Killed Angel?” “Angel. “Angel,” the voice said. Angel’s fault. Angel’s fault fault fault. Angel was epic. Xander!”

It tickles me endlessly.

Thanks for filling out the poll, you guys. I'm now working on the Angel-buys-a-puppy epic.

hahahah! I know! rahirah's is hilarious, too. I think what tickles me so much about this is I wanted to hit up hard the issue of Angel and Spike being confused with each other (in terms of destiny). And it's all Angel? Spike. Spike? Angel. Do it with your fics, do it. It's hilarious!

The voice is TOTALLY obsessed with Angel. He should think about getting a restraining order.

Puppy fic, yay!

The real fic was totally obsessed with Angel too! Which is kinda funny as I was trying to be so well rounded.

It does make me happy.

I like the "Xander!" randomly thrown in at the end. Surprise butt-sex?

hahah it is! What's funny is I meant that piece to be really ensemble but it ended up being completely Angel centric.

Angel? Angel? Spike! ANGEL! ANGEL!

Rocky. Janet!

Angel puppy fic? You're kidding, yes?

No kidding. I can't take it seriously which means I can actually write it which means it's freakishly long already which means I'm bashing my head into my desk.

Happy to help. Beta. Whatever!!!

hahaha. But it's a *puppy*.

Whatever.

I've got BUGS, Joy.

At least it's not a kitten.

Can't wait to see what you're doing with bugs, btw.

Can't wait to see what you're doing with bugs, btw.

Yea, me too. *hedscreen*

You know, I also think I may have figured out a way to work the Spander into this thing.

Oh! That Spander stalks you, mightily.

[identity profile] kita0610.livejournal.com 2007-05-14 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
Hateful Spander.

Grrr.

Whoa, it's totally deep, in a very... abstract way. I feel like I'm in a coffeehouse poetry reading or something.

My not-the-real-Word version of Word doesn't appear to have an auto summarize option, so I can't play around with this. I just have to hope that more of them pop up on my flist to amuse me :)

hahaha!

I'm sad you don't have that feature! I'm using Word 97 so I thought mine not either, but it does and it's so hilarious.

Angel’s fault. Angel’s fault fault fault. Angel was epic.

Well, that just about sums up the entire series, right there!

ha, yeah!

That's a pretty icon!

[identity profile] a2zmom.livejournal.com 2007-05-14 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
It's too late period Joyce and it sailed right over my head. But I get that main motif of Angel. And fault. And falling. And it's not Angel, it's Spike!

This is way too deep for me.

In other news, I will try to e-mail you tomorrow.

Did you just call me Joyce?

Okay! Good!

Hahahahahahaha!

For some reason, the fact that the last word is "Xander" cracks me up the most.
