Bwa ha ha! (AKA: the happiest day of my life)
I've just been accused of Marty-Stuing (sic) Buffy.
Buffy. Me. A guy who has written exactly one fic out of roughly 1 million words worth of stories that wasn't centered directly on Xander (it was centered on Faith).
And I've been accused of Marty-Stuing (apparently I've changed her gender as well) Buffy.
Do you know how blissfully happy that's made me? High-fives all around! Woo! We're number one! Well, mostly Buffy, because she's such a macho manly guy-man who can do no wrong, but woo! Reflected glory!
And in a power-Xander story no less! Bwa ha ha ha ha!
Seriously: best feedback EVER. I spent most of the day moving furniture and feeling achy and awful. I come home after a long day of physical labor and I find this gem waiting for me.
I am in a fantastic mood right now. The only way I could be happier is if someone told me the zombie apocalypse had started and I had a shotgun with unlimited ammunition. That's how awesome that feedback is.
Hey! I have an idea. All my Xander-centric brethren out there, we need to start Marty-stuing (or Mary-sueing, your preference) the hell out of Buffy until people in the fandom say, "A Xander story? No thanks. I'm so tired of watching perfect Buffy save the day with her gold-plated desert eagle and her fifteen boyfriends. And would it kill them to have Buffy lose a fight for once? Goddamn Xander authors. I hate 'em!"
Please. Join me in this crusade. I am too giddy to be denied.
