[> I wouldn't have Wood still around, simply because we already have a *lot* of characters. -- Kashmanik, 12:19:21 03/05/03 Wed

Just say he left town or something, IMO.

And I'd say yeah, keep Buffy at the school. Maybe she's gotten Andrew a job in the school cafeteria? :-)

I think we should have him enrolled in SU and living with his grandmother who lives down the street or a couple blocks away from Buffy...I think we need to just have the basic four (Buffy, Dawn, Willow, Kennedy) living at the Summers home....or is Kennedy living else where, she really doesnt have anywhere to go.

[> [> [> What if..... -- Kashmanik, 13:55:34 03/05/03 Wed

Maybe Kennedy and Faith could have an apartment together somewhere - we could build on a friendship between the two of them in S8, to mirror the Buffy/Dawn sisterly relationship. Faith feels the need to care for this younger "slayer", and Willow can be all jealous. :-)

Not suggesting that Faith will be gay, just that Willow might worry!

What if Andrew is living with Spike and Xander? Now *that* would be funny!

Andrew, Spike and Xander living together! That is just way too good a situation to miss! Guys we HAVE to use that!

Love the Kennedy/Faith thing too. Kennedy and Faith are fairly similar in attitude, and vastly different in background. I think a friendship could work really well. And Willow has always had a jealous streak. Maybe she'll be afraid that Faith will end up hurting Kennedy, the same way she worried about how close Xander and Anya were. It'd be interesting to explore this. I like it!

Can't everyone picture Xander and Andrew trying to teach Spike the intricies of the Starship Enterprise?

No?

Just me then...

[> Remember, we don't know if these people will survive the s7 finale -- Linda_Delurked, 16:03:23 03/05/03 Wed

We can't be 100% certain that Anya, Kennedy, Andrew, Amy, Wood, Spike, Xander , Willow or even Dawn will survive. It looks fairly likely that Buffy will, but even that's not a guarentee. Whedon has confirmed that the season 7 finale is the last Buffy ever. He's gonna want to pull out all the stops on this one.

For that reason I think we should refrain from writing too many episodes until season 7 ends. It's going to be a major kick in the teeth if we've figured out stories for each character and then they die in the finale! Especially if Amy makes a return and dies - which I think could happen. I don't think Joss would bring her back for one episode and then leave her hanging, unless there's too little room to fit her in. I think we should be careful about how much we write until we know what has happened at then end of season 7.

[> [> The S8 fic is slightly AU - it's gonna have to be. -- Kashmanik, 16:11:00 03/05/03 Wed

For example, Anya is going to be in our S8, when it's known that EC wouldn't have been carrying on. So obviously something will happen to Anya in the finale, be it death/leaving town/etc.

We're just assuming that the main Scoobs, Kennedy, Faith, and Dawn have survived. That's the best we're going to be able to do.

Delaying episode writing until the end of S7 would be a disaster, IMO. People would probably lose interest, both writers and potential audience.
