[Buffy arrives on the Plane with a general air of awe, but awe mixed with the extremely wary. Think open-mouthed with a hint of tension as if ready to stake anything that may or may not jump out at her.]

Holy hummus... [She breathes, taking the enormity of it all in.] Toto, I don't think we're in Scotland anymore.

[She's slowly revolving on the spot, which shouldn't really be dizzying and yet certainly seems to be having that effect.] This is insane. This is like that trip to the Planetarium in sixth grade where if I'd been paying any attention I bet I'd know the names of ALL this stuff-- Oh wait, that's the guy with the belt! I know him! Or... no, actually it's just an arrowy thing.

[She sighs, hands on hips, apparently only just realising the worrying reality of the current situation.] Fantastic. I've gone and gotten myself magically kidnapped AGAIN. For like, the third time in two days. The universe could really stand to expand its repertoire.

[She raises her voice, addressing the general ether.]

OKAY THEN. COME OUT, EVIL HELLGOD or HARBINGER OF DOOM or LOCH NESS WHATEVER. LET'S DO THIS. BUT CAN WE MAKE IT SNAPPY? I WAS PLANNING A NAP.

[Standing a little back, because she doesn't want to get staked] ...Loch Ness? As in the Loch Ness monster?

[likeajoan.livejournal.com]

[ooh a person! Slightly jumpy suspicious eyeing time]

Huh. You don't look very scaly, I'll give you that.

[exserpens.livejournal.com]

Evil Hellgod, eh? I rather like that.

[likeajoan.livejournal.com]

[have a raised eyebrow]

In my experience they're not a whole barrel of laughs.

[Dru doesn't jump out at Buffy, which is probably for the best. She tends to move as if she's gliding, though, which is still pretty creepy in itself.]

It's the Slayer. Lost little Slayer, strolling through the stars.

[likeajoan.livejournal.com]

[why yes that IS very creepy, and Buffy is suitably creeped, and also confused, she's sort of staring at Dru as if she's a mirage]

Drusilla?

[mercwamouth]

...I love this place!

[But which season is she from?]

...How many vampires have you bonked so far?

[likeajoan.livejournal.com]

[oh dear god no. Have a look of WTF]

Excuse me?

[madamemoiselle]

Ne, you haven't been kidnapped. There's nothing to worry about.

[likeajoan.livejournal.com]

...Oh. [puzzled look]

Oh? Then where am I? 'Cause I'm pretty sure I didn't set out for a galaxy far far away.

[handysparehand.livejournal.com]

Third time in two days? Really?

[likeajoan.livejournal.com]

[wry Buffy is wry]

And you know the scary thing? Only a slight exaggeration.

[gerogerodance.livejournal.com]

[Enter Amane, the currently pretty big, 13 feet tall frog! And GASP, he heard the word 'evil'.]

WHERE, where, gero!? [Looks around, flailing.]

[likeajoan.livejournal.com]

[WHAT. THE. HELL. Buffy just stares for a silent moment]

You're a giant godzilla frog.

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

[because he can't just be normal, the Doctor arrives in a half-suit of armor with his cutlass (tee hee!)]

Did I hear Loch Ness Monster?

[likeajoan.livejournal.com]

[get in line for the wtfery behind the giant frog, Doctor! Though she IS eyeing the cutlass warily]

You're not him, are you?

[lamb_of_gold]

The fellow with the belt is over that way [He says, pointing somewhere behind Buffy]

[likeajoan.livejournal.com]

[she turns, just slightly to look]

...Nope. Still don't see him. There's too many.

[ofalzarius.livejournal.com]

You could just go back to your own reality, you know.

[likeajoan.livejournal.com]

So I've been told. Which is reassuring. Because really the kidnapping got old after the first two times.

[cyfor.livejournal.com]

[contemplating her] You plan naps?

[likeajoan.livejournal.com]

[...a talking cat. OH WAIT is this that psychic cat she's heard about...?]

Kinda have to. Otherwise I don't sleep ever. And even then it's 50/50.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

[Hello Buffy, have another American Feminist Superhero Icon. Only this one's got a box of cupcakes! Hooray!]

Oh, boy. First time, huh? [She brandishes a cupcake at Buffy, which is... actually going to be given as a tasty gift, d'aww. It's got a little gumdrop on top of its sugary pink icing, and looks EXTREMELY DELICIOUS.]

That's okay, happens to the best of us. But you really oughtn't to call for trouble like that. My experience is, you get what you wish for, whether you like it or not.

[likeajoan.livejournal.com]

[ohai thar! Buffy blinks at the cupcake, and then takes it after a momentary delay. It DOES look good.]

Oh, trouble tends to find me whether I wish for it or not. Even when I take measures to dissuade it, like kicking. Or aggressive shooing. Before I eat this, is it going to make me really big or really small or see rabbits?

[she's pointing to the cupcake, yup]

[harmonixerdemon.livejournal.com]

[Since that was similar to his first reaction to this place..] You get evil hellgods after you a lot? And don't worry, nothing like that caused this.

[likeajoan.livejournal.com]

[dryly] ALL the time like wouldn't believe. It's bordering on the disproportionate.

So this is a good little dimension then?

[contract_star]

You might be a bit surprised by the Evil Hellgods running this place. They're not really what you'd expect.

Welcome to the Astral Plane, by the way.

[likeajoan.livejournal.com]

Thanks, I think. [pause]

So these Evil Hellgods, are they fluffy and cute or...?

[extutela.livejournal.com]

[Oh my.] Er, excuse me, but I'm rather sure there's no.. hell gods or doom-bringers or Loch Ness monsters about. [A pause] Well, there is a sun goddess, but she seems rather nice to be honest.

[likeajoan.livejournal.com]

[perversely disappointed here]

Well that's... actually kinda anti-climactic. I was all worked up for some demony action. Really, nothing?

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

Buffy!

[Here, have one (1) Wicca tackleglomping you, Buffy.]

[likeajoan.livejournal.com]

[ack will not fall over but YAY!]

Will!! You're you! And here also!
