Author: anyas_butt_monkey *all writers MUST READ*
Subject: OK, look, there are a few things we need to nail down RIGHT NOW!!!
Otherwise things are going to get messy....
1) How, when, by whom & why Amy is killed. This is a very important issue, and has to be done right, the character has a lot of fans - Amy's storyline this season, last time I checked, has her getting deeper and deeper until there's no way out....but going six feet under. Whether she commits suicide, is killed by a random MotW, or by Proserpexa needs to be decided. What also needs to be decided is in which episode. Her death must also bring a resolution to the character's entire arc, so no random killing (although thats angsty).
2) What Proserpexa's plan is. She doesn't necessarily need a plan to start with, her followers are the ones who release her. But we're going to need some big plan that Proserpexa decides will work for her - otherwise where's the oomph?
3) Whether Raven will be in the finale or not. Episode 13 sees Raven slinking off, not to be heard from for a few episodes - we need to decide when she'll return, whether she'll fight with Proserpexa, or against her (but not necessarily with the Scoobs either). And whether she'll live to see the finale, or whether Raven becomes vacuum fodder before then.
4) Who is actually still writing. Kashy informs me that Mark has been bumped back to a later episode. Mark, if you could tell me which one, it would be much appreciated. And if any of you know the e-mail addresses for Marzipan, It's A Yam Sham, Ben and Peter Wiggin, please pass them on to me, I need to get in touch with them ASAP!!
That's all for now :)

My episode... -- Mark, 02:35:47 03/29/03 Sat
Yeah I was kinda bummed that I couldn't write for Proserpexa cause her character sounds so cool, so I asked if I could be put on an episode that had her in it and Kashy was nice enough to oblige! I'm not positive what number it is, but it is the episode Ben/Benny was supposed to write. I believe it is episode 18.

Lots and lots and lots of answers :) -- Linda_Delurked, 17:10:14 03/29/03 Sat
I'm glad we're doing this, as I am starting to get confused with the different versions of the story. That makes it pretty difficult to decide what to do for my ep!
1) How, when, by whom & why Amy is killed.
I actually like the ideas we've come up with for both suicide and murder (odd as that sounds) so whatever suits the overall arc best is fine by me. I would like Amy to realise the mistake she's made before she dies, so I'm edging towards murder at this point. Plus I'm worried the suicide thing is too dark and nasty.
2) What Proserpexa's plan is.
I am STRONGLY, STRONGLY, STRONGLY in favour of the destroying time plan. Prosperpexa (ha! I spelt the name right! look at that!) has a dwindling cult of elderly followers, and the witch who was going to raise her to end the world didn't even finish the job. Even her newly acquired servents are not worthy of her. She decides that she is going to destroy everything that is, and make it as she would wish it to be. The only people who will exist will be the ones she wants to exist. She will be a Goddess, and all who live will be her followers. She'll never be left to fade in an abandoned temple again.
We can add a backstory to give this a bit more oomph, but I definately thing this would be the most ambitious big bad plot yet, and as time is destroyed at the end of my episode (21), it leaves a totally blank slate for the two finale writers. They can do anything they like!
3) Whether Raven will be in the finale or not.
I assume you mean eps 20 and 21, not just 22. We could have Raven realising the error of her ways and siding with the gang, or maybe not going that far but deciding that she wants to destroy Pyrexdishia. (blast, knew it wouldn't last.) Maybe give her a chance to be a slayer one last time before she dies?
Or maybe she'll show up just to feed on the earthquake victims.
As time is destroyed in episode 21, even if she dies before then, the writers can still bring her back for the finale.
4) Who is actually still writing.
Meeeeeeeee! Meeee! Me me me me me me me me me me me! I'm writing! I'm writing! Oh oh oh me! Me me me! Meeeeeeeeee!
Me! :)

I like it, especially No 4 :) -- anyas_butt_monkey, 17:23:20 03/29/03 Sat
Did you see, I gave you ep 11 too? Better get cracking!!
Did you nick the "destroying time" idea from 3Strikes? We'd better send him some advanced kudos...

Actually.... -- Mark, 21:34:27 03/30/03 Sun
If you check the archives the whole "destroying time" thing was my idea. It was just something I was thinking up for a while so no need to thank 3Strikes! :)

Yeah Mark... -- imisstara, 21:41:31 03/30/03 Sun
The whole time idea is such a cool way to take the plot, how DID you come up with it? Was it just something you thought up of out of the blue? Lol I wish I could do that!

Well.. -- Mark, 21:43:25 03/30/03 Sun
I'm not really sure haha. I just always thought time was a cool concept that 'Buffy' never reall explored. Its explored the whole dimensions concept before, so for me time seemed like a natural progression. And the idea of destroying time seemed really epic and massive, something that's never been done before.

Aaaaaaaah! I didn't know! I didn't even notice that!!!! *whimper*
Em...help???? What happens in episode 11?
Okay okay...*deep calming breaths* ... Big bad arc...horsemen stuff ... Aw geez, I have to follow Mark! Ooh! Xander centric! I suddenly feel calmer...
Um, is there anything that I'm meant to cover in my ep? Anything in particular that's meant to happen? I've been concentrating so hard on the end of the season I can't remember what the timeline is for the middle!
*whimper!*

Well, I dont think we need any more extras... -- anyas_butt_monkey, 19:39:11 03/30/03 Sun
Thanks for writing episode 5, twoz much appreciated by everyone! But seeing as Peter Wiggin has returned, there's only eps 17 and 11 open....and they've already been "reassigned".... which kinda means that That One Guy won't be writing anything after episode 12 (sorry, dude)....of course, if anyone else drops out you'll be the first to know (after That One Guy, of course!)
