Anybody want to help a vamp?

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

I'm going to phrase this one broadly so as to not spoil people who don't want to be spoiled about upcoming plotlines. Suffice it to say if you don't want to know anything about what's going to happen with Angel and/or anyone he hangs out with between now and Saturday, don't click the cut tag.

On the other hand, if you'd like to be a tiny bit spoiled and possibly help out

Okay, Angel's going to be hit with "Killer of the Dead" poison between now and Saturday. The name's truth in advertising. If Angel doesn't get cured of this, he'll die. Actual death, as in bye-bye vampire.

The canonical cure for this poison is draining the blood of a Slayer. One problem: We lack in Slayers. Especially ones we can kill. Ooops. ;)

What we do not lack in, however, is all sorts of folks from all kinds of dimensions who can possibly come up with a new kind of cure.

So, who wants to help out a vampire?

Plot-wise I'd need Angel to be down for the count for at least a few days and, if necessary, I can keep him suffering for about a week. Beyond that, sky's the limit for my needs. Hopefully this can provide a way to get some teamwork and interaction going, so some kind of solution that takes a little bit from one fandom, a little bit from another, mixes it with another, etc. would be best.

Any takers? =)

ETA: For the folks going to England, we can handwave the canon a little and keep Angel sick as long as we need to. Plus there's some help that could happen in England itself. So there's plenty of ways to make sure all who want to get to play =)

So my question is: Is this the post Season 7 BTVS council or Pre?

Not that either one would help Angel...

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

One thing to consider is that prior to this it's been said there's no Buffyverse stuff in FH's dimension. So to me that suggests that y'all would need some kind of handwavey (possibly another use of the Knight bus?) way to get to the Council, and at that point it could be whatever version of the Council suits the needs of the plot.

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Ooo! Knight's bus! And maybe there would be a need to break into the building so Marty can bicker with a certain someone about who's a better lockpick.

Never did resolve that issue.

Evil thought:

The only member of the New Council they can get hold of is Andrew.

Marty: *headdesk* *headdesk* *headdesk*

Mun: BRILLIANT!

[rup-giles.livejournal.com]

How about this: the Council won't give the FH folks the time of day. So they split into two groups. One tries a break in. The other sets out to kidnap a member.

Now, who's the only member dumb enough to get nabbed in broad daylight by a bunch of (albeit talented) teenagers? (You know, besides Dawn. That's not so much stupidity as genetics.)

Zomg, and suddenly? Our trip has plot.

*glees*

Parker better not be on the kidnap team, or Andrew won't last long enough to be useful.

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

I think Parker and Marty could have a good time with Andrew. We can pull an Anya and Xander interrogation thing like in Season 7.

... and you know, you're not wrong at all. *MORE GLEE!*

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

I'm already thinking of a scene where we capture Andrew:

Parker: *Grabs Andrew and drags him into an alley and throws him up against the wall* Tell us everything you know about Angel and this poison he's infected with.
Andrew: *whimpers* What I'd do? What I'd do?
Parker: Since your little buddies at the council aren't going to help us? We're taking matters into our own hands.
Andrew: (Prattles on about silly things)
Marty: *pulls out tranq gun*
Andrew: Whatever I've done to you I'll stop right away!
Marty: It's not me.
*bamf*
Parker: That wasn't the plan!
Marty: He annoyed me.

"I'm not a Slayer! Don't feed me to him!"

*eyes new account that has nothing to do with FH warily*

And who are you exactly?

[fh_jackass]

(C'est moi. Have a couple of dormant Andrew accounts from other games.)

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Woot! Of course we'll need to get admin approval for outside characters. Just thought of that one. Hmmm.

[fh_jackass]

*nod* Yeah, guest stars need official approval. But if you want an Andrew, I'm willing to do it. :)

[soldtoarmenians]

And Xander can watch and wonder why it seems so eerily familiar?

Will be on trip, BTW.

Wouldn't, of course, recognise Andrew. Until he pointed out that he's Tucker's brother.

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Yes! Xander must be there!

You are so far beyond brilliant *wishes Paige was going to England know, but it would have broken her :/))

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Love. LOVE.

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

It's obviously Veronica... but she won't be in England :)
