It's the most wonderful time of the year! And other happy IWRY thoughts

[fluffernutter8]

Okay, I lied. Although this is one of my favorite times ever, the time of non-stop high-quality B/A fic, what I'm really here to say is that it's my IWRY day!!!

I've participated for the past three years, and I look forward to my posting day with a combination of dread and excitement. So, to help amp up the excitement and bring down the dread factor

I guess some people actually have lives and things to do other than fanfiction and tv.

I didn't know that there were going to be other moments either, but I was so blocked when I sat down to write for IWRY this year that I decided to take K's advice and revisit it. I'm not 100% pleased with the way it turned out, but I'm glad that I went back and added more because just having Angel talking to/about dead Buffy was bumming me out.

But I'm glad that you got a Buffy vibe- I always try really really hard.

I think that the Martyr of the Month calendar would have 6 months worth of Angel in different positions.

in possibly one of the saddest understated lines in a fic where both main characters die
I think that this is my favorite line from this review (not that the rest isn't awesome) just because it made me laugh. And then realize why everyone I asked thought that this story was so depressing. It sounds stupid, but I just did not pick up on the fact that I KILLED BOTH OF MY MAIN CHARACTERS. How did that happen?!

I actually can't believe that you remember reading this story, but I'm glad you liked it. Thank you for reviewing!!

(I think my favorite part of this mood is Angela's weird sitting down dancing. Also Booth being bouncy. :))

It's less of having a life and things other than fanfiction and television to do and more that I've been spending my time in a different fandom, so IWRY fell off my radar. I like to pretend that I spend much more time on college than I actually do so that I don't have to think about how much of my time and money I'm wasting. Anyway. Not relevant here.

The other six months on the Martyr of the Month calendar would be of Doyle in different positions. Angel could take the odd months and Doyle the even. I would buy this thing Every. Year.

(Um, of course the story was depressing. Amazing, and far less depressing once Buffy and Angel got to be cute a bunch of times [my face, still smiling from the adorable], but still depressing. Because they're dead. Even if they're rocking Heaven out like no one's business.)

(Don't be silly. I have a fabulous memory for awesome, of course I remembered reading this. And thank you for writing!)
