The Fanlistings
A fanlisting is a site that gathers and lists the many fans of something. There are fanlistings for movies, episodes, relationships, foods, even fanlistings for other websites! This fun and addictive idea is the brainchild of the lovely Janine, and you can find out more about it here.

Kate Lockley
Played by Elisabeth Rohm, this detective appeared in the first two seasons of Angel. She first helped the AI team with their investigations, developing a friendship with Angel, but after she found out he was a vampire... then had her father murdered by vampires... that friendship turned incredibly sour. From there, things went drastically downhill for Kate. She became obsessed with following any cases that might have an 'otherworldly' element, and that obsession found her more and more alienated from her peers. One officer accused her of "going all Scully", but she corrected him. She isn't Scully. Scully is the skeptic. And unfortunately for Kate, she already believed.

The reputation she developed got her transferred out of downtown, and after she helped Angel bring down a rogue precinct (rogue as in "full of zombies"), unable to explain the truth to her superiors, she was fired from the LAPD. Having lost the only thing left that still mattered to her, Kate attempted suicide, leaving a message on Angel's machine that got more and more slurred as the pills and alcohol took effect. She didn't know whether he'd care that she was dead, but when his epiphany kicked in, Angel kicked in Kate's door and revived her.

Kate wasn't sure what she was going to do after that, but the experience helped her find some of the hope she'd lost: "I never thought you'd come for me, but I got cut a huge break. And I believe... I don't know what I believe... but I have faith. I think maybe we're not alone in this... because I never invited you in."
