It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

Mme Lizard? Insent.

Thanks, darling. I'll be full of the slashy Christmas cheer, or something.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I hope I am not part of the reason why you feel like you should keep your mouth shut! I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable by joining the discussion, and I am sorry if I did.

Hee. Well, feeling less of a misanthrope, now, and to be honest, it's sort of a pile of: comment somewhere and either a: have it become some larger discussion I hadn't intended or b: see the actual comment elsewhere outside of the original context or c: comment as part of an offhand set of comments and have it turn into more than that.

So, it's no one thing, rather a set of them that have been making me want to curl under my desk and say "never talking again. ever. ever." Plus, you know, holidays.

I do think Yahtzee is someone who has malleable characters - she's written a couple of different Buffys, for instance. I wonder if that's part of what PMM's noticing

It's partly that, and partly that when she has a firm grasp on a character, it's firm enough that a more slippery one stands out all the more. There have been Buffys I've believed completely, and a couple (TUG) where I didn't, at all. YBMV.

No no no, see, PMM's going to write Crichton/Wesley. Which I realize is kind of an uphill battle, but c'mon, Plei! You'll love it. It'll be fun! Just because it's a crossover with a fandom you're not in...

In the event that someone has decided to get me Farscape DVDs, this remains possible. SA, hon, if you're reading this... any progress on the HCL/AtS? You were the last one holding the ball. Pun intended.

Updated Hole in the Ground with two new(ish) stories. To be a woman, and Influence. The first is Buffy; second is Of Gods and Monsters.

RL: not really a rec., but if you're looking for Willow/Drusilla try here. I don't know if you'll like it or not, I can't judge how well people write Willow, but it might be worth trying.
