Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

can I be so bothersome as to ask for a direct link for this Ellen fic? Because there's a whole lotta fic over there at summergen to browse through and the tagging doesn't seem to be in use.

Art Crawl!!!

Found this translation of the Hebrew from the season 4 promo over at TWOP (where it was posted from lj:

"Armageddon, Hill of Megiddo, crushing, the sons of the angels advance on the circle of the earth and the end of the ages."

Hee! Consuela, I just finished reading your fic, and I enjoyed it muchly.

Edit: Heh. Consuela beat me to it!

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

I haven't read the story yet, but I can't wait! Being reminded of Ellen made me swing by samanthaferris.net. I was reading through one of her Q & A's and saw this about season two (which is not spoilery because its only her view)

Q: what would my reaction to Jo being John's? and is Bobby a good replacement for John?
A: well I think that Jo IS John's.....but i don't know. Ellen knows. Deep down she knows but she is the only one. Bobby is a good man for those boys but he will never be John. Never.

Huh. I mean, I thought about Jo being John's, and there were theories, but guess I didn't really think of it as much of a possibility. Wouldn't that be weird if it was a probability? So, she thinks Jo is John's. That still leaves me with the reaction of "Huh."

edited again to add prediction: I'm not going to last the weekend without looking at spoilers. The anticipation of the first episode is building too much. I will break by Monday at the latest.

Anne, that is one of the best Ellen stories I have ever read. I have such over the top love for her and I found that just incredible.

Hmm. I like the idea of Ellen having had something with John, however messed up and tormented -- but I really don't like the idea of Jo being John's daughter. Especially given that Jo was originally introduced as a possible love-interest for Dean. That's a bit too incesty, in a fandom that's already got plenty of it.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

Yeah, I kind of thought at the time that's what Ellen was going to tell Jo to keep them apart. But that isn't the direction they went.

But I can see it.

Thank you, Austin!

I like the idea of Ellen having had something with John, however messed up and tormented -- but I really don't like the idea of Jo being John's daughter.

This, and it's not just the potential incesty vibes that would come from it. Another issue I have is believing that John would sleep with another man's (especially a friend's) wife so close to his own wife's death (Jo's not that much younger than Sam, right?).

I can, however, easily imagine any number of circumstances when they might hook up later, most likely for something they'd both dismiss right after as a "just this once/this was a mistake" kind of thing. Repeated a few times, perhaps, but hardly a grand romance and hardly healthy.
