Oh! Dana! That's so fucking great. I'm so glad you wrote that.
I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's still whimpering.

What I love about Gaiman's death is she's so huggable.
She really is.

Lizard's bit with the tulip is haunting, isn't it?
I love it to pieces.

Yes, definitely.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Thanks!

Dana, I adored your Death. And I was just thinking of re-reading the Sandman series, too.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Dana, I imagine everyone likes your Death. What's not to like? She - the entire piece in fact - is/are sensational.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Dana, I've never read any Sandman, either, and I didn't need to. I imagine being familiar with the Sandman-verse gives it another layer to appreciate, but it was still very nice.
You really nailed Buffy's dialogue, particularly here:
"Limbo? Do they actually play limbo there? Is that where it gets the name?"
And this....
"And hey," says Death, blazing as bright as the full moon. "I'll take good care of your mother. Don't worry about her."
Ouch.
Buffy hears the words, but by the time they make any sense, she's already forgotten them.Double ouch and sniffle.
Damn, that was good.
