To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

I'm glad people are liking the Dru bits. I've feared writing her.

Forces self to avoid finding the money to buy the DVDs, rope, and tickets East.

Huh. If I knew THAT was all it took to get you to visit...

Victor, consider yourself blessed that tonight, you've been the only thing standing between me and real darkness.

Cool. Usually, I get the complete opposite reaction. (:

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Hee.

It's been a Job Hunt Night, you see.

And those are bad. Worse than bad, really.

Thanks for all the fish.

Victor, it's lovely. I really want to read it again, all pieced together.

And, you know, it would be 'waiting' out the tide, because it's a seafarthing thing - waiting for the tide so you can set sail.

Deena, yes, altering should be alerting. Thank you.

Up with the sun

Oh wow, Victor. I came into this story in the middle, and I'm already desperate to see what will happen next.

Connie, I like the way you're writing General!Xander.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

It's a bit of a tangential question, but how do y'all feel about your SO's reading your fic? Not allowed? Same way you'd feel about them reading non-fan fic? Somewhere in between?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

The closest thing I've had was my mom reading select portions of my fic, that I chose. It weirded me out a little, mainly because she didn't understand why I wasn't writing original fiction instead of fanfiction. She seemed to like it, and was praise-y, but I've not shown her anything since then.

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty

Initial reaction... person I *know* reading my fic? Person who is not fannish? Freaks. Me. Out. But then, I feel much the same way about my original stuff unless I've actually written it for a set exercise.

Second reaction: having a person in my life I chould share my fic with, who would understand? Great! Want!

Elena, I like it. connie, Victor, I've got a long way behind, and have discovered I'm nearly as spoiler-phobic with fics as with shows. I will catch up soon, I hope.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I made my immediate family (all non-Buffy watchers) read my fic. Mother thought she'd raised a crazy lady, father and sister intrigued.

I'd let most anyone read it -- I'm almost abrasively defensive about it.

Yeah, I'm down with that -- OTOH bf knows way more about batman than I do.

abrasively defensive

That's interesting-- this phrase fits incrediably well with what I feel; and yet I react to feeling defensive by *not* showing people, by keeping it a hidden thing, practically a secret, while you react by showing everyone, no matter what they think.

We're totally different. Isn't it cool? t /obvious statements
