John Constantine was a character in another of Gaiman's comics, was he not? The one about educating a young wizard? I loved that.

John Constantine is the main character in the comic Hellblazer. But yes, he showed up in Gaiman's Books of Magic.

Hmm. I haven't really looked at this yet, but it has a fanfic link. I don't know if I should be scared or not.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
That would be "The Books of Magic," I think, SA. (xposty w. Jilli)
I did write one Sandman piece, but it's a crossover with an anime series (Rurouni Kenshin). It's here, in case you're curious (she said meekly, hoping someone would go read it).
What I really want to see someone write is a Endless/due South crossover, with Delerium, et al deciding to play one of their little games with Fraser or one of the Rays.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Is the reiteration of "head" deliberate?
Nope, actually.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket
The funniest moment of that time of my life: I was attending a local fantasy/gaming convention, and ended up running into an old friend who I hadn't seen since junior high (about age 13). I looked like I always did — big black hair, black velvet dress, eyeliner, and a choker with an ankh — my friend had decided to attend the con dressed as John Constantine. He took one look at me, blinked, and said "You aren't here for me, are you?"
That's adorable!
JC also was in one of the sections of the first Sandman book, right?

Yep. Helping Dream get back his bag of sand from The Dreaming.

See, I want someone I trust to read any Sandman fic, so they can steer me away from the badfic. Because bad Sandman fic would upset me on SO many levels.

She liked to watch Judge Judy and provide a running commentary on how Wolfram and Hart would handle the cases.
Damn, that made me cry. They could have WORKED, damn it! I can see them laying bed with the TV on--or the couch, depending on where the TV is--and Lilah snarking. And I can see her sneaking into his apartment and playing mistress of hte house. Half of her really wanted to do the "Hi, honey, I'm home, how was your day?" thing, but the other was perfectly at peace with "These are my bosses, they want your soul, please pony up now."
And he still has the dollar in his wallet. I do hope we see more of how Lilah has affected him in the future.
Gunn doesn't deserve him anymore.
