Another Round Complete!

Posted by: bvbmod

Well, everyone, we have come to the end of another wonderful round of BVB! Thank you to everyone who participated this year! It's your participation that keeps this Fandom and community alive. And although BVB is a small corner in the Fandom, we are still going strong thanks to you!

Participation badges will be distributed shortly, so be on the look out. For those of you who wanted to join in this year and couldn't, we know that 2020 was a rough year for many. Hopefully, 2021 will heal some of the darkness and bring back some normalcy to all of our lives.

Once again, thank you all and hopefully we'll see you again for the next round coming later this year!

My bingo fills

If the challenge had been to throw fills vaguely in the direction of the bingo card without ever forming a single line, I would have done pretty well. One day, maybe I will plan my prompt fills ahead. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Regardless, it was nice to have some extra motivation to create a broader variety of things and put a bit more effort into some of them so they'd count as a full bingo fill.

Here's my card with the filled squares bolded.

I've got:

Sadly, I didn't manage to make a bingo in time before December. But I have finished a row now, and happily make use of the Amnesty Month. So here ls my card; I filled the middle row (all with seasonal_spuffy entries).

Amnesty Days!

Tue, 01 Dec 2020 22:21:04 GMT

Posted by: bvbmod

Hey everyone! Today marks the first day of Amnesty for Buffyverse Bingo! This means that anyone who signed up for a card and was unable to complete it during the game days can post between now and 12/31. I'd like to congratulate beer_good_foamy, sweet_lyri, and stuffnonsense for their bingo wins!

We look forward to the next month as those amnesty entries come in. Good Luck!

BINGO!

Getting this in just under the wire...

Title: Twists and Turns
Prompts: AtS 4x08: Habeas Corpses
Character/Pairing: Spike, Drusilla, Dalton
Rating: PG13
Word Count: ~750
Summary: There are rules for how to fight the undead. Being magical (or worse, metaphorical) some of them are bound to work better than others. And sometimes, as Spike and Dru are about to learn the hard way, technological advances bring some of the old ones back into play.
Author's Note/Disclaimer: I am not Joss, and I make no money off fanfiction of characters owned by him, etc.

Title: Civilization
Prompts: Autumn holiday/festival
Character/Pairing: Darla, The Master
Rating: PG13
Word Count: ~750
Summary: In our reality, the Roanoke colony in Virginia disappeared mysteriously at some point between 1588 and 1590, and the first successful English colony in Virginia was only established in 1607. In the Buffyverse, that colony appears strangely well-established in 1609. There's an obvious explanation for this, that includes the girl who would become Darla.

Title: Dental Plan!
Prompts: Skeletons in the closet
Character/Pairing: Buffy, Spike
Rating: PG13
Word Count: ~1500
Summary: You know how all myths are true? Well, one legendary being is running around Sunnydale attacking vampires and leaving them... less than they were. You'd think this would be more helpful than it is. But Spike isn't too keen to be a part of it, and this town may not be big enough for two vampire hunters.

Title: Player Piano
Prompts: AtS 4x17: Inside Out
Character/Pairing: Dawn
Rating: PG13
Word Count: ~1000
Summary: When Dawn was six years old, her dad got her a music box. No biggie, it's just a music box, just a childhood toy she's kept for all these years, a tune she occasionally hums. Just a small part of the pool of memories and quirks that make a person. And obviously she should have more important stuff on her mind after Sunnydale turned into a giant crater. So why does the world suddenly seem so quiet?

Title: Five People Whose Loan Applications Were Approved At Sunnydale Securities Bank (And One Whose Wasn't)
Prompts: AtS 3x19: The Price
Character/Pairing: Carl Savitsky, loan officer!
Rating: PG13
Word Count: 750
Summary: So how does Sunnydale… work, exactly? Well, it's a long and complex story of corruption and denial, but let's check in with one of the cogs that make the wheels spin. Remember the loan officer who turned Buffy down in "Flooded"...? Here's his Sunnydale story in six installments, occasionally interacting with the main storyline.

Reminder!

Posted by: bvbmod

Hey friends! This is just a reminder that you have until the end of this month to post your bingo entries to win this round of BVB! After November the amnesty portion of the game begins. During the amnesty period, you can post any entries that you started, but weren't able to use to complete a bingo line. You can also post any additional artwork, fic, etc that you have outside of your completed bingo line. For example, you made your bingo, but you completed a fic for another prompt outside of that line.

We are looking forward to all your awesome entries for this round!

Character/Pairing: Buffy/Faith
Rating: R

Title/Creation: Psychosomatic
Prompts: Need
Character/Pairing: Spike/Angelus, Spike/Drusilla, Spike/Angel

Author's Note/Disclaimer: Not Joss I.
