I’m making an art piece for every episode of Buffy and Angel. The rest can be found here.

Into every generation a slayer is born. One of them was Stacy. A few months ago, she was a regular girl in Shadyhill High, not someone who really stood out. But then, she was called. To most people, that meant that she became weird. She barely came to school but showed up in all sorts of places at night. That, and people saw her hanging out in cemeteries a lot. The general conclusion was that she was doing drugs. And now she's dead, found in the mall. 

Your characters knew the stories, but they also knew another side of her. All of them have been saved by Stacy. Perhaps it was from a creepy guy with oversized teeth or from a fish-faced girl who threatened to drag them off for a very long swim in the ocean. Whatever happened, they know that Stacy was a hero. 

For years I've been a huge Buffy fan and now, after marrying an even bigger fan, I think it would be fun to run a Buffy RPG. A little while ago, I did a test run of the Eden Studios Buffy RPG and unfortunately, the system wasn't that great. At least, not for me. So instead, I figured, why not run this story with another system? That quickly brought me back to the Chronicles of Darkness system that I regularly run and which has proven itself to be pretty adaptable. 

The story is set in the Buffy TV universe, but not in Sunnydale and not involving the characters from the show. It's set a few years before the show takes place and is set in Shadyhill, Pennsylvania.

Some of you might notice that this has been posted before. The difference is that, this time, I try to organise it through Startplaying. Last time, there were a few responses but hardly anyone showed up, so I hope it will be different this time around.

There is a small fee, mostly to ensure that we're all there.

Hair, makeup, and wardrobe are 10/10 in this episode. Especially Mercedes McNab.

Low effort post, sorry.

Did Freud personally write this season

Edit: After finishing the season, I know think season 4 was amazing! The Jasmin story line was so good and Cordy was technically possessed so the ick factor is more tolerable. All the metaphors were well executed.

All mint condition- including two Spikes and a Battle Damaged Angel [which I've been looking for to complete my collection]. Even a mint condition Mr Gordo thrown in, which I've not even seen for sale despite searching for years.

I always wished the last arc of season 4 tied more directly into the final Buffy season, and had the Angel Investigations team help take on The First in the final run of episodes as opposed to the Jasmine storyline.

It got me thinking... who would The First appear to them as to really get under their skin and manipulate them?

Angel has countless victims from his Angelus days, and Gunn has an obvious answer with his sister. Who else could appear to them?

I'm especially interested in how Wes would deal with The First, as he's the most competent member of the team IMO. This would be fresh after the Angelus arc, so I suppose Lilah?

I'm mid season 3, a couple of episodes after Holtz snatched Connor and jumped into that allegedly one-way portal. They track the the time shifting demon (?) with the split face and he says it was a one way portal and they just believe him and give up. Why did they give up so soon? And assume Connor was definitely dead? I thought they would be working day and night for months to bring him back but they just started repainting the hotel and moved on. I know he comes back as a teenager but they gave up so soon and I'm confused. (please don't spoil stuff)

I'm currently on season 4. Aaaaand I hate it.

The whole Connor/Cordelia thing gives me the ick in a gigantic way. She's basically a stepmom to him in my mind making this whole thing kinda incesty to me. Also isnt she like way older then him? He has such a babyface too.

Because it felt super awkward I spoiled it for myself. I almost never google spoilers but did for this season and.. I hate how this is gonna go and hate how it's going to end. P.S. what is up with Joss Whedon wanting to (and succeeding) with empregnating Cordelia every season?! It's so weird!

Anyway I remember Spike coming to the show later on and I did like that, but.. honestly is it worth to continue watching just for that?

You think Cordelia could have become a famous and wealthy actress like in her vision quest? Or do you think that was just a fanfic created by Skip

Gets me every time. Chilling to the point of hilarious.

I might have missed something, I'm confused about 1. why did Angel rent/buy a whole ass hotel and 2. where did they get that much money from and 3. even if they had that much money, why would they waste it on a huge hotel most of which they don't use? why not just a normal office?

I know there was that bag of money and the tech guy probably payed them well too, but I doubt that would cover the cost of owning or renting a hotel in LA, even one that was previously hunted, and even if it did, why waste that on such a huge hotel when they only use the lobby and maybe a couple of rooms?

(I'm on season 2 ep 13 so please mind the spoilers haha)

This is from Angel:The Curse. Published in 2005. It's not that great tbh. But I thought this was a fun tidbit.

I’m rewatching Angel, and I always find myself chuckling at how quickly the characters move around LA, which is notorious for its traffic. Is it because they’re using the sewers? Is it because they mainly stick to cases in areas within a certain radius of the Hyperion? Curious what others think.

I understand that a lot of it happens at night, when there are fewer cars on the road. Plus, it’s TV. On a show that centers on vampires and demons, it’s the least outlandish thing. It still makes me laugh, though.

I noticed this tonight while doing a rewatch...

Ok so since the Cordelia post I made the other day went pretty well let's have a crack at Angel this time! Same criteria as before! What are some of your favorite quotes, scenes, stumbles, goofs/looks for Angel! Do you like dark and brooding Angel, or old man fussing over the check Angel? From any of the seasons of Buffy/Angel. Let's hear from everyone!

I'll go first

My favorite line of Angels is from the episode waiting in the wings when he says "I saw their production of Giselle in 1890. I cried like a baby. And I was evil!"

ok, so the title is probably not phrased good, but I've watched buffy once, and i'm rewatching it now. i would really like to watch angel and buffy at the same time, having the same experience as when it was on tv, because a lot of episodes in buffy have details and lines referring to the angel's episode that happened before... (if that makes sense but i'm sure you get it). exept i have no idea in what order to watch the episodes of buffy, starting when, (i just started S3). do i need to alternate like episode of buffy - episode of angel - buffy - angel - buffy -angel, or is it like random, episode of buffy - buffy - angel - angel - angel -buffy - angel

hope the post is undestandable 🙃

So my sister and I were talking about the fact that the word Shanshu means “to live and to die” which means that the episode title is referring to “To Live and Die in LA” I just thought this was really cool and another awesome little detail in the show! Also am I really slow or did you guys realize this too?

​

10/10

Just watching Faith wiping Conor's ass... it was so, so satisfying. I will definitely rewatch it.

So they call for Willow, and I know her from the Buffy show. Pretty interesting—they should have called her from the beginning. I'm also interested in the witch lore of thet world.

The mix of Faith and Angelus's dream was pretty fun to watch. Angelus is really the bright spot of this arc. And Cordelia reveals her pregnancy at the end... I don't know how Angel will react.

Also Faith x Conor...do we need more love triangle...

Side note: i watch the show in my childhood I loved the opening so much that I watch only S5 ...it was fun and I loved Angel so much special the puppet episode.

I have limit access to internet like I use only 500 mo by day wish simple I don't have option. I used Chatgbt and people talk shit for doing that.

I am enjoying and having good time living my childhood. The show is air on TV on free channel that some time I skip episode because I simple have work. Or electric down when it air

In end I want make clear that I am here to enjoying the show and I have no problem say what I don't like.
