Aww!
GAH!!
BWAHAHAHAHA!
sigh, Ethan...
(What? I'm catchin' up!)
And I don't think there's a thing in the world that will do that now, and I love her for it.
Umm. I have squicks. I have squicks that make me near to twitch.
Angel/Cordelia (and I have a lot of friends who like it, but it's WRONG, wrong like a wrong thing and perhaps even wrong like Buffy/Giles) and, natch, Buffy/Giles.
Angel/Cordelia makes me want to poke out my eyes with fish hooks. I'm still scarred from the couple times I tried to read it.
Thing is, it went so wrong when they tried it on screen not ONLY because of the chemistry that's... not, but because it was basically a massive retcon of a mutual lack of attraction and the corrupting of the family vibe, and fuck that shit, damn it.
I never cheered louder than when Connor got some with Daddy watching. I wanted to kiss DeKnight (and I think that one *was* DeKnight, yes?) or send him fruit or just thank him.

Did you read Slightly Darker Than Black?
I posted something along these lines in Natter, but I've got a horrid plot bunny involving a Discworld character being brought over to the Potterverse as a Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.
Did you read Slightly Darker Than Black?
Yep. I also read Burn.
Given the hype, I expected darker.
Decent, but I found the characters slightly off, keeping in mind that I'm as picky a Wes reader as I am a Buffy reader, which means that there are plenty of decent writers who I won't touch if either character is involved. I've also read Another Life, whatever that one where everything's all frozen is, and some others.
I did *try* to like them, but it's like attempting to like the taste of cat food or something else I was never intended to eat.

So. much. good. stuff. Brain exploding now.
connie, loving V!Giles, as always. Deena! Darling woman, you have Fredvoice absolutely perfect. I could hear AA delivering exactly those lines--you've written her as concieved, perfect. And Spike too, of course. Wonderful! Am Chau, I've never read Hitchhiker, something I will remedy sooner than later, but I'm loving what you're doing with the crossover.
And SA--oh my. Hot in here allofasudden? (fanning) Woo!
Damn! Forgot. Here's my drabble (dual theme this week was Worst Day Ever in a character's life/Fear).
How Many Endings (Darla)
"Please."
She was dying, and that was okay. She'd come to terms with it. Angel had done his best, but the disease that had killed her centures earlier was going to kill her again. She was fine with that. Her acceptance was total.
"Please don't."
She was ready to die; it was the natural order of things, and she'd had a second chance. This couldn't be happening, it couldn't....
"Please, please..."
Dru's teeth sank into her neck, condemning her yet again. The last thing she heard through her terror was Lindsey's voice:
What did you think was going to happen?
Perkins, you safely back in LA?
