B, i have that book too, the Yearbook, in fact thats the first thing i ever gotg signed, which is when i met Amber, Joss and Michelle, i felt funny cuz everyone else was having the Once More with Feeling cd signed but not me, i had to be the weird one and bring the Yearbook instead lol but that worked out fine. i had some hard core friends who wanted to see the autographs so bad so i had to Xerox that pages and send it to them lol. yeah i noticed that too, aobut her name, i just had forgotten though. my fave books though, besides the novels and comics are the Watcher's Guides, those rules. sadly not as big a fan of the Angel Case Files one, but i do wanna see vol 2 though, which i guess should be out b4 long, maybe by next yr.

dont have the yearbook....I want it..badly...but i DO have all the watchers guides..got 3 yesterday . In the 2nd watchers guide they call her ANya Emerson too...but remember, that was when she was a demon..and a fake name made so she could get in school and fit in...Jenkins was something she made up for the atchers council so they would think she was human (Checkpoint s6) But Ive been in/seen ALOT of debates online about her last name...I had a 30 min debate with someone about it...I prefer/use Jenkins (I rp alot) but I kno a few ppl who use Emerson and refuse to even accept that ANya said Jenkins in s6....*Shakes head* wierd ppl. Ok Ba..ur not a geek. I keep mine next to my bed lol and..Im so bad..I can CORRECT the misquotes in that book. And there are actually alot more then I figured there would be...lol GEEKS RULE!!!

that was s 5 with Checkpoint but ya. hey remember she uses her full name in that one Misses song, ugh i never did get that song by the way, i need to try and dl it again soon.
but yeah that name stuff can get confusing sometimes and all. but she's prob had many names being immortal and all that, try and fit in and stuff, so ppl wouldnt say well that Anya Jenkins, umm didn't she diea long time ago, cuz i heard my gramma knew her way back when. though the vamps don't even bother with last names, its like they get vamped then get a new name, but just one, like Angel, Spike, Darla etc, i forgot if Dru was her real name or her sired name, i know Angel and the rest had h uman names first. we never find out what Darla's was though, but its said that she had a dif name when she was human, the first time that is.

The've never said Drus "Real name" ethier. Only ones they ever said was Spikes and Angels. (WIlliam and Liam ) But we kno ANyas name isnt..Anya..nto origonally...but she was born Waaaaaay before Angel and Spiek were...waay back b4 last names existed..so she prolly dnt have a "Real last name". But ...her real first name is Aud

OK so back on topic.
I finished Heat last night. FINALLY picked it back up and finished the damn thing.
I HATED the ending!
(Luc u might want to look away cuz this might give some stuff but I needed to rant somewhere)
I mean, yes I'm glad that Xander was ok but..common. The time travel thing? Been done too many times. And it just came off as weak and lame to me. Don't get me wrong I LOVE the book, it kicks ass and still my fave but...the ending wasnt as good as the rest of it. It ended too soon and just abruptly....
The dragon fight thing was cool and I loved the whole dream deal (Of course) but...yea endin was just....blah.
I'll stop the rant now lol...

You didn't like it?! I luved the ending, cause for once it was happy (well, "happy" according to the Jossverse, and in that Xander didn't actually kick the bucket). I really did. I liked the whole book overall. Now I gotta get my handy dandy highlighter out, got the slayer slang book today YAY!

Yes Im glad Xander's all alive and not eaten...that part almost made me put the book down again...was it really nessisary to add that little paragraph about trolls eatign him? Mean ppl. But..yea happy ending...but ...it just kinda....they saved the day, so some people died (Besides Xander who cares ) Turning the time back is a cop out to me...I dunno I think it might be cuz Im in Buffy Rp heavy and....alot of ideas. So many better ways to fix that then turnign back time...blah. Cool about the slang book I still gotta get that one. My book store sucks mega butt...I have to special order EVERYTHING...

Oh, and BTW to add to the "surname" dilemma... One fan in Michigan has way more time on his hands than even us. According to the "Fang Mail" portion of the latest Buffy Mag (#16, Dec2004/Jan2005) Jason writes "I was reading the Q&Slay of Issue 14 (Tony Head and Faith on cover) and I realized I had the answer to the 'William the...?' question. His surname is Wordsworth. They never mentioned it on any episode, but I remember seeing it on the character bio list on UPN's Buffy website." Ok, the UPN site is still active, and right now it doesn't say anything about his surname. But, then again, they revamped, so to speak the site right before Season 7, so it may have been on there at that time, who knows. I'm just not sure how much of a ring that has to it, I mean William Wordsworth? B

ok Jenn warned me that since she finished up Heat she would be posting spoilers and stuff, well so B and her could talk about it, so i'm not reading those most recent post lol but umm, just wanted to say i should be getting Heat soon, cuz i do see that its newer than i though, came out just 2 months ago, same time as book 3 in Wicked Willow series. i'll get it but won't read till after i finish book 3, almost done with 2, but i hope ic an maybe starting reading it mnore often and stuff. so al the more closer to being done and then go into Heat.

I think Heat came out in July actually, cause A.) that's when I first saw it, and B.) I was able to buy it on my Birthday, which is in early August. Funny how you missed that thing about the surname tho, since you don't want to get into the spoiler crap

yah last nite B told me its William Wordsworth, i was like whoa. but no i never remember anything about Angel's last name, though if any ep would say it u would think it would be The Prodigal, since thats the ep when we learn he was Liam.
