Geeky fic notes for 'Five Other Uses'.
The origami swans are based on real models.
The swan Danny makes for Angel is a perfectly lovely fold developed by Robert J. Lang. Here's a shot of it, folded from a sheet slightly smaller than 4" x 4"; any possible errors in execution are mine.

As for the ones done by the Andys: that too is real, and is a fairly common quick fold. I came up with the notion of having them do it ('Five Other Uses' was one of my earliest fic ideas that I couldn't get to gel until now), and then was quite floored to find that the movie totally backs me up on this. Screencap swiped from
gypsyjr; you can see the incriminating item at the bottom of the frame, lurking behind a pencil cup on Cartwright's desk, the cheeky thing.

Back to the fic.
