a question for the Buffy crew on the flist

[cornerofmadness]

Does Oz ever get the ability to control his shapechanging and do at will outside of the moon cycle? I can't remember and I haven't read too many of the comics? Thanks


Bad news. My landlord's cat went missing last week too. It's very depressing since now I'm pretty sure something bad happened.

He does get that ability eventually. I mean when I write future-tense Oz, I put him beyond how far he got in the ep where he came back in Season 5.

And I'm really sorry about your kitty. :( *hugs*

okay cool. thanks. It would help if Oz could control his ability for this story (that i forgot about totally)

thanks. I'm upset that it's likely something happened to both those cats

In New Moon Rising, he was able to not change into the wolf on the full moon, but then he unexpectedly changed during the day when he was upset. I'd like to think that means that down the line he's able to control the changing both ways, but it didn't really happen on the show. Not of his own decision, at least.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks. that helps. I think I'llbe able to justify him having control

[dragonydreams.livejournal.com]

I'm looking forward to seeing what you're working on.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

it's not that great and i FORGOT about it. I promised to cover a story nearly a year ago then just remembered it.

I can't believe I forgot about Oz I loved him! I don't think he did cuz all I remember is him staying in during certain times for fear of changing.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

nods, i don't think he did on the show but it sounds like maybe in the comics...

[mulzrule.livejournal.com]

Maybe, I never found any of the comics to read. If we have comics here it's all Marvel stuff.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i think Darkhorse put them out. I have to get comics online

[mulzrule.livejournal.com]

We definitely don't have that here. Your icon cracks me up.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

like i siad I deal online.

thanks

That's terrible about the cats.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

it is. some of the damn rednecks around here probably shot them

One of the BtVS comics was specifically Oz-centric and essentially about his quest to gain that skill. Which he did...he could change/not change at will. In New Moon Rising his control was shaken by the emotions Willow (and then Tara) stirred up which is why he still couldn't stay. I'm pretty sure I'm close to the story, but the comic itself is in Ohio and I'm in Michigan at the moment.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks. that's good enough for what i need.

Poor Kyo. Is Roy still around?

And *hugs for you* (Dragon Cave must be down...)

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yeah he is but he's still acting like my place is the enemy.

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Oh, no about the landlord's cat, too. *wince*

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yeah, not good

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

What about Royboy?

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

around but hating my house

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Yes, i remember you saying he wanted to move out.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

apparently it wasn't just Kyo that was the issue
