...I. I've got nothing, as is typical for me with your fic but. Holy cow am I fangirling the hell out of you, for this. I love the Endless, I love Death, I love Jack, and this is just beautifully perfect.

Blimmin' heck, you're quick!

And you like Sandman? YAY. I read it years ago, adn I still can't get over its awesomeness. Neil Gaiman is the person I really really want to be able to write like one day.

So glad you liked this. I woke up with it in my head and had to get it out.

I have really good timing. I hit refresh and saw fic and gleed.

I really love Sandman. Neil Gaimen is out of this world and his characters just own me.

It's wonderful! I'm glad you got it out!

Oh yeah, they seriously own me too. Him and Pratchett are my writing Gods, but Sandman is just... it's incredible. It's an epic novel in comic book form, and every read through make me cry and laugh and...

Now I stop gushing at you. Also, yay for the refresh button!

Oh, this is very nice. I'm such a sucker for crossovers, and while I haven't actually read Sandman, I do love Neil Gaiman.

smithy161 September 21 2007, 15:59:07 UTC

Thanks! I've never wanted to write a cross-over before, but this idea wouldn't go away until I wrote it.

Also, if you love Gaiman, you will ADORE Sandman. It's epic.

I'm stuck on stupid crossovers :( I'm writing freaking House/Stargate: Atlantis right now.

It is on the long list to read. My friend has it, but I have...like 10 books ahead of it because I have a compulsion where I am unable to refrain from buying something when I enter a bookstore. Very tragic.

Oh, I like that rather a lot.

smithy161 September 21 2007, 15:59:49 UTC

Thank you!

Poor Jack.

smithy161 September 21 2007, 16:01:57 UTC

Yeah. He really doesn't deserve it all.

Thanks for reading!

jack trying to hit on death for the win :) also this line - “Yep. Off, like a big smelly cheese."

seriously though, you know what you should write next: that would be jack and death becoming friends over the years, she could have some tea ready for him, they could chat a bit etc. that sounds like fun :) or perhaps it's fine just being implied. i can practically feel it already, which is something rather brilliant in terms of this one.

smithy161 September 21 2007, 16:11:52 UTC

I did consider writing Jack/Hob Gadling over the centuries, which I still might do at some point, but yours sounds more fun. I also want to do something involving the Doctor meeting Dream. But probably won't, because writing Dream would be way too hard.

Anyway! Gld you liked it, as always.

Jack/Hob Gadling! *bounces and claps*
