Irony: Walking through Trader Joe’s and hearing “It never rains in California” on a day that really soaked.
Luck: The rain and clouds cleared up in time for a great view of the lunar eclipse (when we weren’t in a store or eating dinner). Post-eclipse, it started up again.
Coincidence: Watching Lost for the first time (fully aware that Merry Brandybuck and Lt. Matheson/Gavin Park are both on the show), and at the first commercial break, Buffy’s mom pops onto the screen to talk about painkillers. Tons of genre connections surrounding an apparentely non-genre show.
I love it when fandoms collide. My favorite quite still is, “Great story, but what is Buffy doing in Rivendell?”
Definitely! I don’t remember much about that quiz, but that line really sticks out!
Of course, I was the kind of kid who wrote Star Wars/Star Trek crossover fic for school vocabulary assignments in third grade. I remember labeling the alliance between the Empire and the Klingons “The Incorrigible Team.”
