And log 3, a kind of long one
~~~~~TARA ENTERS THE ROOM~~~~~
Soul: Hey Tara
Elrad: Hey Tara, you dissappeared quite quickly, did something happen
Tara: I am sorry, the window closed suddenly, I must have hit a button.
Elrad: so, have you seen Willow yet?
Tara: I am not used to chat programs.
Tara: She came to my dorm a bit after we first met here.
Elrad: cute, isn't she?
Tara: She was worried I would be freaking out too much. She is indeed.
Tara: Could you tell me more about her? At least her from your reality?
Elrad: I can, yeah
Elrad: but apparently somethings aren't the same as in ours
Melissa: She's a sexy red head, What more is there to know?
Elrad: in our world she had a boyfriend
Elrad: Mel, down girl
Melissa: *whimpers*
Elrad: what do you want to know?
Tara: oh...
Tara: I don't know, I'm still very confused by the pictures I saw.
Elrad: at least you haven't read the smut yet
Tara: The... smut?
Melissa: Damn, don't scare the poor girl, Chris
Elrad: ah, well, this site has stories about Willow and you on it, right?
Melissa: Ease her into it, easeeeeee
Elrad: well, if she doesn't have any questions, I have to tell here somethings
Melissa: So you are gonna confuse her even more?
Elrad: allright then, forget the smut, Tara
Tara: I haven't read any story, yet. I was looking for lesbian-themed chatrooms. I don't really know why, though. I mean, I know I love women, but i don't know why I was looking for chatrooms.
Elrad: you wouldn't have met Willow without stumbling in here, would you?
Tara: Are the... "smut" stories about your Willow and Tara?
Tara: Willow and Tara sounds good.
Elrad: there are all kinds of stories about our Willow and Tara
Jay {pondering}: THere are cheesy ones as well.
Elrad: and it does sound good, yeah
Elrad: you might try doing spells together, seeing as your both real witches
Elrad: Tara?
Tara: Sorry, it goes a bit fast for me. You said I wouldn't have met Willow if I have not come here, how do we meet in your reality?
Elrad: Well, you did say that Sunnydale can't talk, right?
Jay {pondering}: Wicca meeting. You two lock eyes, then silence comes, you go find her to do a spell and, well, find her.
Tara: She didn't come to the Wicca meeting yesterday.
Elrad: she didn't?
Tara: It'd be nice to practice magic with someone. So, you are all familiar with magic? Does anyone practice?
Jay {pondering}: I'm studying the Wiccan faith mostly.
Tara: No, when she came to my dorm she told me she would go to class and then do some research about alternate universe, and why yours and ours seem to overlap.
Elrad: she's a smart cookie, that one
~~~~~~~~~~WILLOW ENTERES THE ROOM~~~~~~~~~~
Soul: Hello EyeOfNewton
Elrad: Willow?
EyeOfNewton: tara hey i'm here and safe. sorry it took so much longer than i thought, buffy wanted to make a detour to get xander and anya
Jay {pondering}: Are they joining us as well?
Tara: Willow! Good, I'm glad.
EyeOfNewton: holy heck you guys are all still awake??!
Elrad: Anya on here would be akward
Tara: Have you found anything yet?
Elrad: our time is somehow different from yours, Willow
Star Catcher: ...it's only 6:30
Elrad: even so it's only half past midnight in Europe
EyeOfNewton: different time? oh great like this wasn't confusing enough already
Tara: Erald said it wasn't early morning for them
EyeOfNewton: tara, not yet. i got the others up to speed on what we knew so far, and i've got my laptop all set up here running some searches. giles and xander are reading, and Anya's ...... actually Anya's been really helpful. she knows a lot about this stuff
EyeOfNewton: cuz of the ....... do you guys know about anya?
Elrad: just don't get her started on shrimp
Elrad: Annyanka, you mean?
Tara: Do you mean about the overlpping realities or the voiceless issue?
Jay {pondering}: Who, the over-1000-ex-demon?
Elrad: na, we don't know her

:
Soul: I don't think they mean in the way you're taking it. They don't help demons.
Star Catcher: demon-friendsly to friendly demons
Jay {pondering}: They exist. Like Clem
EyeOfNewton: geez, guess that answers that. it's so weird, i'm used to ........ well, not talking about all this stuff.
Elrad: yeah, and Angel
Elrad: I can imagine
Tara: Alright.
Jay {pondering}: And chipped-Spike
Elrad: and we know even more than you do
Tara: Who is Clem?
Tara: Who are all of those people?
EyeOfNewton: anyway, tara, i haven't exactly told them .... about this. i should. i REALLY should. but stuff's ....... different. in their world, I mean.
Jay {pondering}: He's a friendly, polite and sweet demon
Tara: Whose world Willow? You're confusing me as well, now.
EyeOfNewton: if it makes you feel any better tara, i'm pretty much just as lost as you are right now.
Tara: It does, Willow.
EyeOfNewton: as best as i can figure, we've got our world ... and we know it's the same one because we've actually met face to face.
Jay {pondering}: *nods*
EyeOfNewton: and everyone ELSE has seen us (you and me and a bunch of my friends) on tv. like a show. except they seem to know stuff that hasn't even happened yet
EyeOfNewton: and talk a lot.
EyeOfNewton: so it's confusing.
Tara: Thank you again for going through all the trouble.
Elrad: Willow, some of the things that happened in the TV show seem to be different from what happened to you
Jay {pondering}: *thinks Tara should make Willow's time worthwhile*
Elrad: unless you lied when you said you'd never went out with Oz
Soul: Maybe you somehow got in a future chatroom. Not really a different world just a future world. Lake House sort of affect for the kittens.
[22:35:49] EyeOfNewton: can we figure out where WE are, or at least close to it, in your show? like ... on a timeline?
EyeOfNewton: and maybe you can help us out by trying to only talk about stuff that we'd know about? to keep our heads from blowing up? that would be really helpful
Elrad: Willow, have you defeated the following badies. The Master, Angelus, the Mayor/Faith?
EyeOfNewton: sorry giles is talking. don't want them to see the chat room.
Elrad: have you defeated all those Big Bads?
EyeOfNewton: Yes, all that happened.
Elrad: but you never dated Oz?
Tara: Ok.
Elrad: okay, so it's also a temporal anomaly
Star Catcher: ^^ wow, i'm only 3 (assuming you're past March)
Elrad: because I'm in 2009
Star Catcher: weee!
EyeOfNewton: dated?! i don't think oz had any idea i existed. seemed to be the general consensus.
Star Catcher: ok, did you ever have a huge crush on Xander?
Tara: I can't imagine anyone not noticing you Willow.
EyeOfNewton: >.>
Elrad: strange, in the TV version he notices you when you turn into your costume at Halloween
EyeOfNewton: no.
EyeOfNewton: uh ...... did YOUR willow?
Jay {pondering}: He notices her with the exchange student
Elrad: me too, Jay
Star Catcher: uhuh, very big one
Elrad: did our Willow what?
EyeOfNewton: have a crush ..... on you know who.
Star Catcher: yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
Elrad: Xander? she had more than a crush
Star Catcher: she had a crush on Xander
EyeOfNewton: so how bout this voice thing!!!
EyeOfNewton: uh, maybe we should talk about that.
Star Catcher: Chris, not helping
EyeOfNewton: like, right this second.
Jay {pondering}: Second that
Star Catcher: ok
Elrad: that was the gentlemen
Tara: Like in the fairytale,
Jay {pondering}: Fairytales monsters, steal voices to steal hearts.
Jay {pondering}: Sorry Tara
Star Catcher: no sword can hurt them
EyeOfNewton: i don't know exactly. tara and i were talking ...... kind of late i guess, and she said something felt strange
Elrad: no weapon, actually
Tara: Willow, I know this tale. Seven gentlemen come to a town, steal the voices and steal 7 hearts.
Star Catcher: princess screams and gentlemen go cablooey
Tara: I don't remember the end very weLL.
Elrad: you have to destroy the little box that has stolen the voices
Elrad: and then scream
EyeOfNewton: wait gentlemen who steal voices? hang on, giles was saying something abou tthat.
Tara: It must be what I felt, the strong magics stealing our voices.
EyeOfNewton: hey, wait, this tv shows you guys watch ... is it still going, or is it over?
Elrad: it's over though there is a comic at the moment that tells how the story goes along
EyeOfNewton: so ...... we're the good guys, right? fighting evil and all that. fighting the good fight?
Jay {pondering}: Of course
Elrad: Yeah, you are
Star Catcher: uhuh, but be careful with magic. use it in condensed amounts
EyeOfNewton: so .......... the good guys win, right? we save the day? so Buffy .... i mean, she must make it through the whole show!
Jay {pondering}: She does.
Tara: Willow, I don't think you should ask that kind of questions.
Tara: *blushes*
Elrad: I thought you didn't want us to talk about what's going to happen?
EyeOfNewton: you guys could tell us how it ends, and then we wouldn't have to worry about demons and ...... why?
Tara: Some things are better off not knowing.
Jay {pondering}: She's right you know.
Soul: I think we shouldn't give away too much information it might mess with their future.
Elrad: agreed
Tara: By trying to avoid something that has to happen, you could make something worse happen.
EyeOfNewton: but this is important! it could save lives and help lots of people. we could always be a step ahead of the baddies.
Elrad: think Oedipus
Elrad: you don't want to marry your mother, now do you?^^
Jay {pondering}: Willow, listen to Tara. She's a wise one
Tara: And no matter how good are your intentions, sometimes to try to go through the obstacles put in our way, things get worse, ther's always aprice to pay.
Jay {pondering}: Oedipus complex. Prophecy, he kills a man to marry his wife, discovers he was his father and she his mother.
EyeOfNewton: but what about jenny ......
Jay {pondering}: What about her?
EyeOfNewton: what about jesse? what about all our friends at school? if we had known what would happen, we could have stopped it.
Jay {pondering}: But could they really save her?
Tara: I know this sounds terrible Willow, but maybe their time had come. Maybe it was necessary?
Tara: I know it doesn't make it better, but we can't go against Nature.
Star Catcher: rules of Wicca, Will
thiswomanswork: hello
EyeOfNewton: i can't believe that! this wasn't just fate. this wasn't a tornado hitting or lightning striking. it was bad thing! evil creatures! they were MURDERED.
Jay {pondering}: Think about Buffy
Jay {pondering}: She made the prophecy happen by trying to stop it.
Tara: As said Star Catcher Willow, the rules of Wicca. I am really sorry. believe me, I am so sorry.
EyeOfNewton: excuse me, i need to go away for a minute
Tara: What do you mean Jay, which profecy are you talking about?
Jay {pondering}: Her Watcher discovered a prophecy that said she was to die when the Master rose.
Jay {pondering}: She went to stop him, and he rose *because* she went there.
Jay {pondering}: It was fate that she'd die.
Jay {pondering}: And in fact she did. But she drowned so she could be brought back by CPR
Tara: I see, it must have been horrible.
Tara: wait, Buffy died?
Tara: I see.
Tara: Profecy are complicated that way. They don't say everything.
Jay {pondering}: Hey Sera, long time no see
EyeOfNewton: tara, no, it's ok. i'm ...... this is kind of stressful. well, for you, too. giles is doing a slide show, i think he came to the same conclusion about the old men who steal the voices.
Elrad: good
Jay {pondering}: Oh the one he drew?
Elrad: oh, do you think we need to tell them about tonight?
EyeOfNewton: of course, you guys already know this, huh? and how we stop them? cuz we MUST stop them, since we're the good guys.
Tara: Does he know where they're hiding?
Jay {pondering}: You'll figure it out. You always do.
EyeOfNewton: no idea. buffy's going to head out, keep an eye on things and make sure people don't go too crazy when they wake up and can't speak.
Elrad: or baring that, you manage to stumble through it in a very heroical fashion
EyeOfNewton: elrad, did you say something about destroying a box of some sort?
EyeOfNewton: way earlier?
Tara: That's a good idea. The sun will rise any minute now.
Elrad: yeah, the one Buffy saw in her dream
Tara: People will panick, they always do.
EyeOfNewton: well, that's something. now we just have to find a box. ..... somewhere in sunnydale. piece of cake :/
Star Catcher: clock tower
EyeOfNewton: like a needle in a needlestack.
Elrad: I have a feeling the trouble will find you^^
EyeOfNewton: clock tower?
Jay {pondering}: A needle in a needlestack? lol
Star Catcher: yep, old clockk tower
Tara: There is a clock tower, an old one, not too far from the campus.
EyeOfNewton: what, is that where the box is?
Elrad: perhaps
Jay {pondering}: Star? Patrol, creepy shadow, Buffy *happens* to go there intstead of going there on purpose?
EyeOfNewton: brb! gotta catch buffy
Elrad: we don't really know if the gentlemen don't take it with them
Star Catcher: yeah, but the Gentlemen, too. with minions
EyeOfNewton: well, buffy's gonna take a look at the clock tower, and hopefully she'll find the box and our voices will come back.
EyeOfNewton: that's what happened in the tv show?
Elrad: not really
Star Catcher: ^^ tell her to be careful, and dont forget back-up!
Jay {pondering}: Nope
Elrad: so, did you talk about doing spells together?
EyeOfNewton: i'm really curious about the differences between these two worlds. why would only some things be different?
Jay {pondering}: lol
Jay {pondering}: Mmmh...
Jay {pondering}: Reality check?
Jay {pondering}: We say major happenings and confront
Star Catcher: alternate universe, have Anya explain
Tara: It's like the butterfly effect, isn't it?
Jay {pondering}: From the start
Elrad: who's president of the USA in your world?
EyeOfNewton: William Clinton. Yours?
Elrad: that might be different from ours
Elrad: the same
Star Catcher: OBAMA!
Tara: Obama? I never heard of him.
EyeOfNewton: the heck?
Jay {pondering}: You're referring to the movie, rught?
Jay {pondering}: It's the current president.
Tara: Was William Clinton you rpresident in 1999?
Elrad: Well, not mine, we don't have presidents
Elrad: but yeah, he was
EyeOfNewton: where are you all?
Jay {pondering}: <---Italy, Venice
Elrad: I'm in Switzerland
Soul: USA
Star Catcher: <---Miami, FL, USA
Star Catcher:
EyeOfNewton: how come you're all over? i mean ...... isn't this chat room based on ..... you know?
Star Catcher: huh?
Elrad: the relationship on TV Willtara?
EyeOfNewton: i guess i ........ how popular are these .... characters?
Jay {pondering}: Yes. But the show was aired all over the world.
thiswomanswork:
http://crushingclams.files.wordpress.co ... son-31.jpg
EyeOfNewton: tara?
Elrad: well, they were the first on screen lesbian couple, IIRC
EyeOfNewton: oh, whew. tara still having problems with your computer?
EyeOfNewton: !!!!!!
EyeOfNewton: what is that picture?!
Elrad: that was after WillTara
thiswomanswork: you like?
EyeOfNewton: .............
thiswomanswork: Thought you might
Star Catcher: that's Amber Benson,

not Tara
EyeOfNewton: that's awful
Elrad: what's awful?
thiswomanswork: Oh I dunno, I think it's quite pretty.
Jay {pondering}: If you say so...
Tara: It's a bit slow, yes. And I'm actually quite shocked by your Tara.
Tara: Amber Benson?
Jay {pondering}: The actress who plays you.
EyeOfNewton: that's just an airbrushed, shopped, manipulated picture, and it's nowhere near as pretty as ...... it's a bad representation
Tara: Do you think so?
Tara: *blushes*
Star Catcher: not as bad as some of Alyson Hannigan's....
thiswomanswork: It's mostly just the makeup and lighting and such rather than manipulation.
Tara: Who is Alyson Hannigan?
Jay {pondering}: The other actress
Elrad: the actress who play's Willow
thiswomanswork:
http://www.nerve.com/CS/blogs/theremote ... gan_02.jpg
EyeOfNewton: wait, if we're just tv show characters to you ....... who fights the vampires?
Tara: The one... playing Willow
Jay {pondering}: There aren't vampires in this reality
EyeOfNewton: >.>
EyeOfNewton: i'm not sure i should click that
Star Catcher: LOL, you were saying, Will?
thiswomanswork: Oh go ahead and click. You know your curiosity will kill you otherwise.
EyeOfNewton: hold on a sec anya's ranting about something
Tara: It's a very nice picture... *blushes* The... lockers are nice.
thiswomanswork: oh yes, very nice lockers.
Elrad: I especially like the lock in the foreground
EyeOfNewton: back. oh, it's a good picture?
Jay {pondering}: Yes very good.
Tara: I think I prefer the real you, Willow.
EyeOfNewton: that's..... that's ...... no. no! that's not me at all.
Elrad:
http://img2.timeinc.net/ew/dynamic/imgs ... ween_l.jpg but this is
EyeOfNewton: i don't even own ... heck of a stomach, though ...
EyeOfNewton: what ...... uh .... heck i don't even know how to ask this.
Jay {pondering}: You are a scoolgirl ^^
http://www.wallpapergate.com/data/media ... an_006.jpg
EyeOfNewton: guys STOP IT.
EyeOfNewton: this really isn't funny
EyeOfNewton: i can't even tell you how invasive this feels.
Star Catcher: yes, it is
Elrad: okay, we'll stop
EyeOfNewton: i understand it probably doesn't seem ... well, i don't know what it feels like over there. but to you we're tv characters. but this is REAL.
Elrad: did we chase away Tara?
EyeOfNewton: to us anyway. seeing ..... naked-like pictures of ourselves is .... it's downright creepy.
Tara: It is.
Tara: It feels a bit violating, thiswomanswork. Please, understand that those pictures aren't the fruit of our will. We didn't go to a photo shoot and got them. Soem actresses in your reality did.
EyeOfNewton: sexy is ...... foreign.
thiswomanswork: So think of it as a twin.
thiswomanswork: Your twin sister got some glamour shots done.
Tara: It shouldn't be for you Willow. *blushes*
Elrad: or the Vampire version of you, Willow
Jay {pondering}: A evil twin. Like, vamp twin.
EyeOfNewton: i think I'll send my twin a nice sweater for her birthday. our birthday.
thiswomanswork: lol
Tara: There's a Vampire Willow?
thiswomanswork: yeah, she looks cold.
EyeOfNewton: <.<
EyeOfNewton: tara, are you alright? i feel bad leaving you there.
Jay {pondering}:
http://media.photobucket.com/image/vamp ... ngland.jpg see? Twin
Elrad: that's not a bad one, honest
EyeOfNewton: i don't think i'm going to be able to walk anywhere without imagining invisible cameras everywhere, taking my picture
Tara: I'm alright Willow, I'm in my dorm with the door locked up. What about you?
EyeOfNewton: sitting on a stool in giles kitchen. got tired of xander peeking over my shoulder.
Elrad: slap him for me
EyeOfNewton: how do we meet .... tara and me? on the tv show? or is that bad to know?
Jay {pondering}: ....
Elrad: Wicca group
Jay {pondering}: you already met...
EyeOfNewton: wait
EyeOfNewton: only if tara's okay with the question
Tara: No, it's alright Willow, I asked already
EyeOfNewton: oh god i didn't go! i skipped it to reasearch this internet thing! i probably messed everything up! the universe will collapse now!
Elrad: not really, you didn't date Oz, after all
Tara: No Willow, it was the universe balancing. We met a bit before, so you didn't have to go and listen about bake sales.
Jay {pondering}: Right ^^
EyeOfNewton: bake sales? :/ really?
Tara: Oh yes. Bake sales. And newsletter. Whatever will they put in that newsletter, I wonder.
Elrad: and leaving wax over women power shrines
Tara: That too, Elrad.
EyeOfNewton: sorry away again
Elrad: did you slap Xander?
EyeOfNewton: tara, xander and anya are going to drive back home. i thought maybe ..... if you wanted, i could go over there? i don't like the idea of anyone being on their own right now. not even buffy, but she insisted.
Tara: I'd like that, yes.
thiswomanswork: awww
Tara: We could look into this whole alternate realities thing.
EyeOfNewton: alright well i'll be there in a few minutes then. gotta pack up the laptop so uh.... see you soon?
~~~~~~Willow leaves the Chatroom~~~~~~~
Elrad: go, just ignore any tall floating monsters, okay?
Tara: Alright, I will go freshen up a bit, you know while it' still early morning and most students are sleeping in.
Tara: Do they act during the day as well, Elrad?
Elrad: ah, no, they don't
Elrad: sorry, the time's strange
Tara: Oh ok, good.
Tara: Goodbye everybody.
Jay {pondering}: Bye Tara, take care.
Elrad: Goodbye Tara, stay safe
COMMA: Keep your stakes dry
