Beautifully-manicured Fingers of DOOM!

Um, you know how recently on fandomsecrets several people have confessed to writing fanfic about a show they've never watched/game they've never played? Well, it's been a couple of years since I last watched S5 Buffy, and I've seen just enough of OFOtCN to know it's too triggery to watch in front of green_trilobite.

Nonetheless, this keeps happening. My main worry is whether I'm getting the tone of the dialogue right - most of the characters I'm basing off descriptions in wikipedia or people's lit-crit essays, and I suspect Ben is a little snarkier than he was on BtVS, but that's because I've discovered I don't like him much and I enjoy making him all passive-aggressive and manipulative.

Poor ickle Billy.
There is a terrible SAVE BILLY! impulse all the way through...the first time I watched it I didn't know what was going to happen, and...yeah that was bad.
Even my little stuffed doll. I get the urge to knit him a tiny sweater in case he gets cold up on the shelf.
But I can't knit, and...well, he has no nerves.
