I live to make other people write weird fic. That means it's not just me tormented by "I bet it would be cool if I made them do this."
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

I, too, practically live for the weird fic. I'm so glad to have found a place where I'm not the only one who thinks about Gollum/Dobby, etc.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
RL, my only criticism of that section - which is beautifully written - is that it feels to me much more like Willow trying to describe a dream after she wakes up than it does like Willow experiencing a dream. Though now that I think of it maybe that was the intent and I didn't catch it at the beginning.

Nope, this is supposed to be in-dream narration. I'll take that to consideration the next time I work it over.
And thanks.

Connie- or whoever- I'm stuck. I've got to the point where if I go on, I'll have to deal with the bit where Angel has to give Buffy and Spike a room with a double bed in, and then it's all angsty and no longer funny. Go or not go?

Do you want to go angsty? Don't write it if you don't want, but the best comedies always have a little bite in them. Much like life.

Advice given, Am-Chau.
edit: and now to the Bitches to put that in the right thread.

Thanks. I'll try, and see if I can get out of it again.

Oh, and the best angst normally has a little bit of comedy to it!
Just, you know, for what it's worth.

So noted, Plei. Angst + comedy = better angst, comedy + angst = better comedy.
