Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

That's really awesome, although I can't figure out who the redhead with the earrings is in the top 1/3.

ETA: I am informed that "the woman in the earrings" is supposed to be Bill Weasley. Confounded by my unfamiliarity with the conventions of anime!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

The two I can't figure out are the older man behind Neville and the dark hared young man between the Malfoys and the Weasleys, with the necklace.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Regulus Black and Luna's dad?

I am guessing.

what -t said.

Or that could be Ollivander.

No, I think that's Xeno Lovegood otherwise I think Griphook would be represented too.

That makes sense- I kept thinking it was Sirius, but of course Sirius was with the Marauders. And it must be Luna's dad! Thank you!

The older man behind Neville is Aberforth Dumbledore, I think, since he showed up for the final battle. And yeah, the dark-haired young man with the locket, next to a house elf (Kreacher), must be Regulus Black.

Almost Alice - the illustrations of Maggie Taylor. Very cool.

ETA: You can see the whole book online at her website - look under "Books".

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hey, don't go to the initial Borders' liquidation sales. Prices are actually higher than they were right now. [link]
