I'm getting really tired of the wank surrounding the Buffy comics. Oh, noes! Our precious Xander-in-Africa fics have been Jossed! Whatever shall we do? ...goes the wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Suck it up, you morons, says the other side. Joss is Boss, what he says goes. He says the comics are canon, and thus the comics are canon. No Xander-in-Africa fics for YOU! /soup Nazi
Except.
Andrew said that Xander was in Africa during "Damage," about six months after "Chosen."
The comics take place eighteen months after "Chosen."
So...where's the contradiction, exactly? Cuz, I ain't seein' it. Therefore, fly, be free! Your Xander-in-Africa stories do not contradict the comics, and you don't have to be all "I'm ignoring the comics because they violate my shiny view of what should be"--at least, not for the sake of Xander-in-Africa.
In other news, and to keep myself honest, I've broken 2600 words on the WerewolfFic. It's not exactly galloping towards a conclusion, more like shambling sideways and falling over on occasion. *sigh*
