Wow, awesome drabbles all, but Ginger's gave me some of the creepiest goosebumps. Brrrr.
Wesley: Hey. Hey, Gunn. Is something weird going on? … Charles, you just peed on my shoes. Gunn: I'll be damned. That's weird.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Man, Ginger, that's dark.

Because books.
Ginger, that's fantastic! I love how dark it is.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Ginger, that's marvellous. Just...ick.

I ignore the commotion in the entrance hall. I'm not good enough to answer the door, I'm told.
But your voice reaches above the hubbub, and instead of being here, with the rags and the buckets I'm back to last night, with the fancy dress and beautiful shoes, lost in the music and the strength of your hand holding mine.
The commotion sweeps in before I have a chance to disappear. My stepmother flashes me glares of dark reproach.
Your gaze holds mine. I die a thousand deaths, praying you remember last night too, never noticing the shoe you carry.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Wow. Ginger's and ita's both give me chills.
Different chills, but chills nonetheless.

Thanks, ita!
I just imagined your Cinderella going off with her prince, getting as far as the altar and thinking, "Um, maybe, no. Here, dress is way too foofy and heavy. I'm off to kick some butt."
And she lived happilly ever after.
