I have two unclaimed VividCon DVD sets, so I can send you one, amych.
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Can I have one, shrift?
The artist in question (petite_madame) is probably going to come up with a great narrative with her images. Me, I'm just sticking to one picture per prompt. I don't feel like it's my job to tell the author what to write, just to trigger their imagination. And I don't have the sort of confidence in my work she clearly does.

I think it's one thing to provide 'a' picture for a prompt and then once the story is written, do more if the story inspires; I've seen that frequently in the Star Trek Reverse Bang. But I could not write a story where there were already 5 pictures; I'd feel too constrained.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Oh, lovely, thanks!

Well, petite_madame comes with built in audience and prestige. Not everyone else in the fandom could do that without jeopardising their chances.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I love this time of year, when Vividcon vids start popping up all over the place.
