Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Our wings are not tired.

Thanks Sail.

Also, not at all hard to read, in fact quite a pleasure.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

They say that love and hate are two sides of the same coin. Janus, that two-faced bitch, just likes to keep things interesting. My bed is a shrine to Janus, and I lay on the altar every night, listening to that coin roll on the tabletop, wondering which side it will fall on -- heaven or hell?

There are nights when I slip into bed, and when my head hits the pillow, the residue of last night's dreams puff up like dust and suck me into that otherworld where I fly, I float, I fuck without compunction, without rules, without limit.

I long for that world, and on those other nights, the night when Janus rules against me, I lay stretched out, burning-eyed and waiting, on the altar.

I lay myself in sacrifice to Morpheus, but Janus will have his due.

Beautiful, Erin.

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

Erin, wow. And all you other wonderful people--I'm overcome with the wonderful, powerful stuff that's poured out here.

And jealous. But, good with the bad.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

I seriously love this line. Dayum.

That's the line I liked best, too, Deb. My eyes just kept going back to it, over and over.

Wow. I'm blushing. But thanks!

I LOVE doing these drabbles. Sometimes what comes out is so surprising to me, and everyone puts their own unique take on it.
