Does anyone remember a hilarious short story, maybe a drabble, where someone is forced to face the demon hoards, and rather than facing an army, is instead innundated with treasure? It was a play on hoard/horde.

Or, you know, good ol' fashioned kidnapping of Potential children. But the Council wouldn't do that, would they? Would they? WOULD THEY?!? (They would.)

There is of course a possibility that the Shadowmen sent their own out to travel the world and sow the seeds of knowledge about Slayers. That knowledge would of course change over time depending on the culture of the regions. That's actually fascinating now that I think about it.

@cawthraven. In order for these traditions to develop, multiple Slayers would have to appear in a short enough time. So it would probably demand big nations/empires or religions in a place to form those.

It does make me wonder about how people around the world might have supported slayers before colonialism, too. What was lost? What traditions and knowledge are still there but ignored because they don’t come from the “right” authority?

@swonderful yeah I’ve thought about that too—a Slayer called in Australia or Hawaii or the Americas before the 16thc would have been cut off from the Council. Maybe even later sometimes, with travel so much slower and more dangerous.

...The CoW would have been searching for potentials constantly, but once foundthey'd have to take her or gain control of her. In most cases they'd be seen as lunatics or evil if they tried to explain the mission.

In "safe," @wonderandashes mentioned that due to difficulty traveling, it was difficult to ge t the Scythe to new Slayers, and it only went to Slayers without watchers. That got me thinking about how often Slayers would have been called without Watchers....

@readingismytherapy: Doesn't she talk to Willow about it and decides not to date Riley because her "husband" isn't that tall and maybe there's something about how her husband smells and that's how she realises it's Spike? I could be mixing things up but it's nagging at me...

Hi, I've been trying to find a fic 4 yrs: Buffy falls asleep & dreams of a future where she is married but she does not know who she is married to, despite clues of who her husband might be. At the end of the fic; she realizes its Spike. Anyone recognize it? ty
