So I'm back online. Which is lovely, although it's going to take a while to catch up with everything I want to.

He might well not have and then there would be angst. Or indeed if he did, there would be Angelus and chaos. Instead there were glowy special effects as Cody followed the trajectory of Wesley Crusher apparently. Yippee.
As to the Buffybot/Gru fic, I would also love to see one with Harmony involved. If I do find one ever, I will rec it.
