Thank you Anne! I'll prolly print it out and read it on the bus home tonight.
Well, look at you. All dressed up in big sister's clothes.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I wouldn't mind seeing the link. The only Sandman slash piece I remember reading was one that paired up Daniel!Dream with Rose Walker's son, IIRC. It was a beautifully done piece.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
All Hearts, Which I By Lacking.
Yeah, Hob Gadling. That's the name. Spoilers herein for most of the Sandman series, up through...um...Brief Lives, I think. S.A., I don't know how far along you are, but you should definitely not spoil yourself.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
I'm up to the third one, in that I've read the first two and not the third. So I won't read it.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
So much good stuff. Dana... never read Sandman, either, and didn't need it. Such good Buffy voice. And what you wrote was so immediate, so real and accessible. And true. It sounded true.
The piece of Mely's is, as we were discussing lately, in second person, which I've never liked.
It's perfect. And yes, teary-making.
Such good stuff.

Thanks for all the fish.
Dana, that was fantastic!
I don't know Sandman, but Death made perfect sense to me. And, I guess, the brother who gave Buffy the dreams was the Sandman?
The bit about Joyce? Heartrendering. And all the hints about things (and deaths) to come? Brilliant.
Love it.

Oh, god. Sleep For Grief. I hurt.

Yep. Morpheus is my woobie.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
Dana, I loved it. I've read a little Sandman, and I could see her.
