LMAO! Classic stuff, and you wrote Fred and Lorne perfectly. That Texan accent is a right bugger, but you nailed it. And Lorne? Just as he should be, with the kindness and the hugs and the trepidation and the comforting endearments. And the singing, of course.

Kudos! Colour me deeply impressed. That'd be a nice ochre, with orange highlights. ;)

Thanks!

I loved writing this, but my goodness it was hard getting their voices right...

Glad you liked it!

Go, Fred! It's so nifty to see her rising to the occasion like this, and I love the dry touches of humor inherent in a vampire-owned furniture store and the normally-unmentioned vomiting part of the hero lifestyle. Lovely work!

[deird1]

Thanks so much!

Hee! I'm glad I found this. Love Fred taking charge and the vomit scene.

[deird1]

Thanks! I'm glad you like it!

I'm here off an old rec in buffyversetop5. Just wanted to say I enjoyed the story! It was great to see Fred kicking ass on her own, and her meticulously-planned execution rang very true!

(Though, having had a stomach flu myself in the past week, I felt a little too much empathy for Angel!)

I'm glad you liked it!

This was brilliant. Utterly. How did I miss this?

[deird1]

I have no idea...

Glad you liked it!
