WHAT IS THIS. LAUREN'S BACK ON LJ AND YOU'RE WRITING TARA/BUFFY. WHAT IS THIS MAGIC. WHAT IS THIS HAVE I SPENT ALL MY GOOD KARMA I DIDN'T MEAN TO BLOW IT ALL TODAY.

HIHI IF YOU WANT BUFFY/TARA ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS ASK IT'S MY SECRET FAVORITE

[une_jonquille]

then make yourself a post-it note that says "Jessica wants Buffy/Tara" because Jessica wants anyone-other-than-Willow/Tara, always

(although Dawn/Tara would take some work to convince me that it wouldn't be a violation of their mother-daughter bond? but if anyone could do it, you could)

I just read this again and now I want more of ALL OF IT. More of Sam and more of the drummer and more of how Tara and Dawn talk to each other in this world, more more more no pressure okay bye

I THINK I WANT TO LIVE IN THIS AU TOO.

(as always, i'm terribly in love with the soft, poetic way you have with words and people and never leave me.)

ALL FEMALE AU WITH A GAY COMPANION WHO LIKES JELLY DONUTS SIGN ME THE FUCK UP FOR MORE AND GILES IN THE BACKGROUND LIKE 'I AM BRITISH AND I BONE A REALLY HOT CHICK SOMETIMES YAY ME' DONE AND DONE

(stop being so mushy with me kiddo I will expect it of everyone)

Aww. BUUUUFFY. (She's absolutely perfect here. All those slightly hysterical, but always witty, run-on sentences. All that responsibility on her shoulders. MY GIRL.)

YAY! So glad you liked it! *happy dance*

[kikimay]

Aww. It's kinda sad to imagine Buffy all alone without the gang. (It makes me always super-happy when Xander and the guys finally help her in The Freshman) but lovely fic and lovely AU.

I like the idea of Buffy having a new gang that's all strong ladies loving her and supporting her. The Scoobies are precious and everything, but SO toxic! This au feels very ~free of that to me.

Thanks for reading and commenting as always!

((squish))
