I meant it when I said I couldn't do better. I don't know the guys, I don't know their music, and if I had to do it at the last minute, it wouldn't be pretty, but I also don't want to offend... there's a line, and I had put on my critic hat instead of my helpful edit type hat, so I'm not sure if I crossed it or not.
I think I'm a little hyper-sensitive at the moment. I'll let it stand.
Gronk.
Finally came up with a blurb.
"Why? Why not? Angel issues, daddy issues, issues with issues--at least they've got plenty in common. Besides, we know they both like handcuffs."
Sigh.

It's an intensely unwitty sort of day, Plei. You're performing far better than I am. I'm in Queen Victoria's headspace today: We Are Not Amused.
So, having said that, is the remix author likely to catch that post and be offended by it?
It's kinda funny you should ask that. Because after I was done whining, I thought that maybe I shouldn't have bitched about it so much, so publicly. But oh well. I don't think it's likely she would see it unless someone pointed her here and, if that happened, I think I'm more the one for her to be upset with rather than you.
are you considered a BNF in popslash?
Dude, I have no idea. I think I'm rather well-known in some circles [JC/Justin fans, for example, where they interviewed me for the writers site] and a lot of people on LJ know me. But I still feel like a new kid on the block. After all, I've only been writing in popslash for 18 months. Then again, I get a lot of hits and I get a lot of feedback. Though don't BNFs complain that they never get feedback? It's all so confusing.
I'm not entirely sure how one determines if they're a BNF anyway. Like, other people told me I was at the Bronze. But beyond the Bronze? No one knows who the hell I am. So I don't really feel like one in the general online Buffy community either.
I am totally a BNF in LunaSync slash circles though. Then again, there's only three of us in the circle. So we're all BNFs. *snerk*
Lizard, the poetry remix is lovely.
I agree. But it wasn't my story.
In fact, I'd like to link to it in my blog/LJ. Lizard, could you possibly change the references from "Dana" to "Nestra"?
Ha! Watch while I slot another Buffista name with a blog username. Go me!

(Look, I'm bad at that kind of thing. Now if I can just remember the equivalence for more than a day and a half...)

Sure. (I had had that thought, too, but didn't want to presume.)
