Oh, Anne - that's lovely. I do like incorporations of Jesse, and this is very vivid and believable. You go, girl!
There were too many people in this town who only had an unmussed bed or an empty chair, and no explanations.
Gorgeous.
Whoa. Good myth.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
Anne, I really loved that. Two things snagged:
a couple of shattered bottles of whiskey; should be whiskey bottles?
After Buffy come back from the dead; should be came.
I didn't understand what was going on at first, but by the second post I was totally immersed. That was good story.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
I like incorporations of Jesse too, and I can see him very clearly indeed.
Brava, Anne.
Fay, I use "hell and the devil confound it!" a lot.

Excellent! "Od's Bodkins" is nice too. And "S'blood!"

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket
Anne, that's quite nice.
Fay, love, would you like me to do some beta work on that? I would so, so love to. Would you email it me as a Word doc?

Btw? It was here that someone was asking about lay and lie?
"Lay" is both the past tense of the verb which is "lie" in the present and intransitive, as in, you lie down; and "lay" is also the present tense of the transitive verb. As in, sex, or laying down sticks.
(Lorrie Moore line: a teacher explaining to her writing student, you don't lay down. And then something about feathers in uncomfortable places...!)

Always Anti-fascist!
Anne, it made me sad. But in a way that felt right. Poor Xander.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Wonderful Xander insight. Very visual. I loved it.
