Update on the cure

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

Okay, after brainstorming it out yesterday it looks like the solution that will work is Al's alchemy + Halliwell spell + Ingredient from the UK gang + The blood of Chosen Ones = Healed vampire.

What we still need to determine:

1) What ingredient the UK gang is getting.
2) Who makes the Slayer = Chosen One connection and sets the blood drive in motion.

For #2 I think it'd be hilarious if it was Janet, just so she could have a headdesky moment of "Oh, great, now we actually need all those stupid Chosen Ones." but I don't know if she'd be up for that.

Discuss. =)

Janet would totally be up for that and regretting not letting everyone put Chosen One on their stupid library card apps so we could just find them easily. Or at least griping about it a lot. (Not that she'd want the policy to change, mind you, but she'd keep a list.) I expect that at least the rest of the library wenches will be mocking her over this.

Just very relieved that today is not when that will happen. :) Energy? What's that? Am I supposed to be awake today?

I hear ya. Plus I don't think Angel's been diagnosed by Giles yet so not like she'd know the whole Slayer blood thing anyway.

Actually - according to what Giles emailed me late last night - he wouldn't have had to visit Angel to diagnose because he has seen it all before. And to explain why he wouldn't have mentioned it to Xander, he could have (a) assumed Xander would know because he doesn't know where in the Buffy timeline Xander came from (from Xander) or (b) because Xander didn't ask (from Giles).

So, while I was vague when V talked to Bel & Logan, I think we can operate on the assumption that he did, in fact, tell V & Cordy the name of the poison (which is escaping me at this particular moment). We won't get that scene done until I get home from work though - so we could really have it go either way - up to you :)

Fair 'nough. I didn't know that Giles had been told enough of the symptoms in order to make a diagnosis. But I'm all for expediency at this point =)

Thus far he was told about Darla and the stake and that it's definitely a poison and that Angel was itchy & feverish.

I don't know your canon - so I don't know if that's enough - but Giles said it is since he's seen it before, so I'm taking his work on that :)

Works. =)

Not like she'd know it today I mean.

Sigh. Clearly I'm not getting the "awake" thing yet m'self ;)

*snuggles* You can share my pillow, if you want.

Janet's going to be doing research today prior to the break-in to SC with the info she got from Angel's chart during her clinic shift last night, but I expect that it will be fruitless and all that so as not to ruin the plotline, FYI.
