The Sunnydale Herald Newsletter, Sunday, May 29
SPIKE: Shouldn't you be tucked away in your beddy-bye? All warm and safe where nothing can eat you? DAWN: Is that supposed to scare me? SPIKE: Little tremble wouldn't hurt. DAWN: Sorry, it's just ... come on. *I'm* badder than you. SPIKE: Are not! DAWN: Am too. You're standing in the bushes hugging a bent box of chocolates, and I'm- SPIKE: What? Sneaking out to braid hair and watch Teletubbies with your mates? DAWN: No. I'm breaking into the magic shop ... to steal things. SPIKE: Magic shop, eh? All number of beasties between here and there. Bet they'd really go for a little red riding hood like you. Bet that wouldn't sit too well with big sister. DAWN: I can take care of myself. DAWN: You wanna come steal some stuff? SPIKE: Yeah, all right.

Ooh Buffy and JatP? Bonus points if you can identify a parallel between the scenes you chose. (That's why you're doing an ask game, right? For potential bonus points?)
ooh, i’m gonna get such a good grade in ask game, which is something both normal to want and possible to achieve!
btvs - the scene at the end of ‘no place like home’ where buffy totally forgets for a moment the huge piece of life-altering information she just learned and gets swept up in the petty argument with her little sis “you can’t even take an apology, you always do that. ever since - !” and all that. and how, in that moment, but also in the moment buffy chose to go to dawn’s room in the first place, she’s choosing her as family, regardless of circumstance.
jatp - “we’ve lost so much already. we can’t lose this, too.” and how it speaks to the way julie choosing to let go of her anger over the dance enriches her life. or, like, taking it in the opposite direction, how holding onto it would have been hurting her as much as it would have hurt luke.
parallelograms - the power that comes from choice is front and center in both moments, specifically the choice of who you call family and hold close even when they annoy the crap out of you when you didn’t even ask for them to be in your life. yet there they are under supernatural circumstances, enriching your life and pushing you to consider things about yourself you wouldn’t otherwise have considered
Send me a show, and I will tell you a specific moment from that show that I love with all my heart.

(we interrupt our current hyperfixation for a quick crossover visit with one from, oh, about 20 years ago...)
i’ve been rewatching buffy season five for the first time in aaaages, mostly because i also just reread, of course, the glorious some killer queen you are and i’m having a whole big pile of complicated btvs nostalgia feelings. i’m up to “checkpoint” now and:
1) this episode is sooooooo much more painful and frustrating than i even remember it being, with the council waltzing in to the magic box like they own the place when in fact they have absolutely no authority over any of this;
1a) which makes me realize that i am very grateful that @pearlcaddy’s version of this encounter jumps straight to the “FUCK DIRECTLY OFF” portion of the visit — i love how julie takes no shit from quentin travers from the very beginning, understanding right away that she’s the one with all the power, which partly comes from her very different circumstances (like, she’s brand new to being the slayer, she doesn’t have the weight of ever having thought of the council as Important, ghost!luke as her watcher has basically nothing to lose and no reason not to push back at them immediately, she’s dealing with a lot (“”) of stuff but somehow less than what poor buffy gets thrown at her in s5...) and partly just comes from the aforementioned intervening couple of decades that have passed... like, of course julia molina is there to say “fuck the patriarchy.”
1b) but aaahh the scene where buffy finally tells them off is so satisfying in every way (well except that it’s doing nothing to diminish my extreme wish that i could watch SKQYA on my television too, omg)
2) “next time we meet, something you love dies bloody.”
3) lololol i had entirely forgotten about joyce watching passions with spike.

Spotlight Saturday
It's Spotlight Saturday for JatP Fanworks Appreciation Week! A list of my favorite fics in this fandom would be...too long, but here is a small selection (tried to tag tumblrs but I probably missed some people).
Also, assume that everything written by these people is good. The writers in this fandom are PROLIFIC and I am constantly in awe.
Some Killer Queen You Are by @pearlcaddy - the BTVS AU of my DREAMS I will never stop being obsessed with this entire fic series. I am a SKQYA evangelist first and a human being second.
Later series by @sanssssastark - this series is very good and very hot and also Luke has a motorcycle: what more could you possibly want?
Because of Julie by jellie_bean on ao3 - one of the first fics I ever read for this fandom, and just so incredibly soft. Have reread multiple times.
favorite t-shirt also by jellie_bean - Julie and Luke go to a drive-in and make out a lot and then he leaves lyrics about it in all her school things. It’s the best. 
light a fire in my eyes (i'm going out of my mind) by @lukesjulies - a perfect Juke first kiss fic! Oh my gosh! Have reread at least ten times!
we all got a second act inside of us by @keepswingin and @zombiedadjokes - I am such a sucker for ghost magic related angst that this oneshot really delivers. Also a good time to plug linger, one of my favorite multi-chap ghost power fics!
JATP Prompts by @the-edge-of-great - just an A+ oneshot collection but I am particularly fond of food poisoning (chapter 2) and hollywood heights (chapter 20).
i couldn't write a love song that captures you if i tried by @blush-and-books - Julie and Luke get to cuddle as much as they want and I cry about it this fic is beautiful the end.
Better Wake Those Demons (Just Look Them in the Eye) by 8ucky8arnes on ao3 - Caleb being a dick and Luke (and the boys) freaking out about Julie: extremely my sh*t. Sorry not sorry.
We’ve Got Time by @mamirugbee - when I bookmarked this on ao3 I described it as “angst and then make-out: the dream team of Juke fanfiction” and I stand by that.
keys to the cage (and the devil to pay) by @hearjessroar - PIRATES AU PIRATES AU. If that doesn’t make you want to read it idk what will.

Followed for the jatp stayed for Buffy which I have now started binging. Just saw Spike and Drusilla and I am Intrigued. Just thought you’d like to know you’re bringing someone else into the spiral of loving Buffy Summers and friends.
Unrelated but always relevant: your fics are amazing! They are part of my go to for when I need a pick me up, so thank you for sharing them!!
--
i do like to know these things! in many ways, btvs has aged poorly, but it's also timeless for the fact that it's a well-constructed story that's purposeful in its writing and presentation. one of the all-time greats!!! (not to set your expectations too high or anything.......)
bonus is, when you finish buffy, you can read @pearlcaddy's exceptional Some Killer Queen You Are, the fic that inadvertently dragged me way deeper into jatp fandom than i'd ever intended to go - if you haven't already read it, that is. and if you have, i gently suggest a reread so you can excitedly shout REFERENCE! every time you get a buffy reference.
finally, thank you for reading my fics! i am humbled by the idea that you've read them multiple times because they cheer you up. that's, like. all i want out of life. to make people a little happier.

If I had to pick the first scene that comes to mind, it has to be Luke and Julie's first conversation from SKQYA. Partially because I was still losing my mind over the fact that a Buffy au EXISTED. But also...it's just a killer scene. The balance it strikes between the banter and the weight of Luke realizing how much time he's missed, and the fact that Julie's basically been handed an early death sentence like her mother is incredibly compelling. Hooked me right of the bat Plus, it's the first pearlcaddy juke conversation I ever read. It was so clear right off the bat that you understood their relationship so well.
Honorable mentions!
Sparks verse: The Hollywood performance, Penguin conversation, and the tour bus cuddles.
Wizarding World: The Juke twitter thread, Luke pretending to date Nick, and blurting out "I love you" when she asks to join the band
More Julie the Vampire Slayer: Julie's death, all of Ray's reactions to Luke and Jukebox, Willie and Alex's conversation after the astral projection spell, and MR. GORDO. how DARE you make me cry about Mr. Gordo
TA Verse: Luke telling Julie why he doesn't play guitar
Aww, I’m so glad you liked that first Juke scene in JtVS! I was a bit nervous about how the blend of BtVS and JatP was going to go, and as soon as I started writing that scene, I felt like it all clicked in my head, so I’m glad it read like that.
Sometimes we just have to cry about Mr. Gordo because he deserves it
And I’m especially glad that that scene from the TA verse stuck out! It’s my newer baby that literally no one asked for and I love it a lot.

@pearlcaddy replied to your post:
Goodbye to You was one of the first songs I learned on guitar because I know what I'm about, so your tags made me feel SEEN. 
first of all, our fannish bond grows deeper - we are kindred spirits. love this.
And Sugar Water <3. (Also, my love of Dandy Warhols 100% stems from Buffy too--whoops, my music taste is BtVS)
secondly, and i’m not saying this to pressure you, but i have thought on more than one occasion “i would read the crap out of a fic written by my pal pearlcaddy that’s just luke and julie having Opinions about btvs music”
