Turned in the completed script for the Spike one-shot today. Just did an out-loud reading of it for Kathleen and Ariel, to make sure all the dialogue and voices sounded okay. It’s not as if they’re the most unbiased audience in the world, but they liked it a lot. My goal–which, of course, I’ll probably never know if I achieved–is to have Whedon read it and think, “Okay, why the hëll didn’t we hire this guy to write for us?” Of course, he could just as easily think, “Thank God we never hired him to write for us.” But I think it’s got enough twists and turns to live up to his sense of the perverse.
If nothing else, it should please the Buffy fans since it definitively establishes that Cecily and Hallie were the same person and shows what happened at the party after William fled into the night to meet his vampiric fate.
The artist has already started work based on early pages I turned in. We’ll probably have sample artwork and the cover to put up here on Monday, although naturally it will still be pending approvals from Fox and shouldn’t be considered necessarily the final versions.
