A little over a year ago I posted Locked Room Problems, a BtVS/Indiana Jones crossover story whose plot boils down to this: Rupert Giles and Indiana Jones are trapped in a temple and a demonic fertility goddess forces them to have sex. I mean, there's a lot of scene-setting, and some character stuff, and some thoughts on making the two series and timelines play nice with each other, but basically it was an excuse to make those particular two men have sex, amen, the end. Of course, the sex ended up being no more than a couple paragraphs long, but I got the plot bunny to stop attacking me and considered the whole business well finished.
Except the plot had a few loose ends, one of which had enough potential for misinterpretation (mpreg anyone?) that I didn't feel comfortable posting the story anywhere besides LJ. I decided this could be fixed with an epilogue, and then never quite got around to writing said epilogue.
Until now.

And yes, I realize that this sounds like a set-up for a terrible Mary-Sue epic, but I don't really care because A) I am not continuing the story, B) it fits thematically into the whole BtVS mythos, and C) frankly, Mary-Sues are made more in the execution than the idea.
Buffy is hard to write. Did I screw her up too badly?
