New York, 2018

Jan 15, 2018 21:37

I make a point of almost never posting here except for stories.

But I had to say, we've finally reached 2018, the year in which my Buffy fic New York is set! I've been waiting for this year to come so I could re-read it and see how I did with my future predictions.

I'm not halfway through yet, but:

Score to me for using phones for everything, including swipe to pay on phones, though the subway doesn't quite have it yet. And for kids living on their tablets, but still reading paper books.

Failure to me for predicting that the Rolling Stones would have stopped touring and would all be dead except Keith Richards.

Definitely a failure of me to vaguely suggest some mild Presidential issue might be a topic of conversation, rather than that Washington DC would be a flaming hellscape of inescapable news horror.

I love leaving my own stories so long I can barely remember them. 'Cos this author wrote all my favourite tropes and a character dynamic that perfectly fits my view of the show. It's like it was written specifically for me! And now I get to read it!

If you're so inclined, here is New York.
