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.

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

Insending.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

Right heah!!!

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Funny, Greg was asking me if I was ready to go to bed, almost had me worn down and I squeeled, he asked why, I said, DEB! Sending! More Story!

He said, "Oh, well, I know I can't compete with Deb," and gave a deep sigh. He was joking, mostly. He's as excited for you, Deb, as I am.

Deena, received, some good calls and a few explanations.

Astarte, will send shortly. Lemme finish up the email to Deena and fix the typos and things.

Deena! Go to BED!

I just had to reboot the system. Deena, you will have an email in the morning, ma'am. Astarte, gimme a minute more....

Stupid Netscape 7.1. Buggy as hell.

Deena, very quickly:

1. Good catches on spellings, and also on the phrasing in the 1620 journal entry, and good questions all around.

2. No reason for Penny or anyone in the room to assume Andrew was the heir; Char is a member of the family, they're not, and those two events are happening simultaneously.

3. Noble English houses aren't subject to primogeniture; females can inherit. But in this case, the question - the distaff side of the family - no. They were branches of the same family, but the Leights had gone CofE to keep Henry VIII off their backs.

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

Deb, I couldn't wait for tomorrow, so you have a quick and dirty--but thorough, I think--email now.
