Postcards

The questioning always starts around Thanksgiving and lasts well into December. “Have you heard from Danny? Still in China, is he?” the neighbors ask. And: “Will he be home for Christmas this year?”

Pitying glances, when she answers that

Oh nice one. :D So you decided to tie it into the comics then?

[estepheia]

Thank you. :)
Nuh, no comic tie in. Tibet was mentioned on the show.... I was picturing Oz in the Australian desert, studying aborignee magic....

Aww, that's lovely. And so, so nice to see you writing again. Welcome back.

[estepheia]

Thank you. It's nice to be back. I don't know for how long because life sucks right now, and my home is a pigsty that's been hit by a tornado, but I'll try to be around more often. :)

Nice. :)

[estepheia]

Thank you. :)

Oz in Oz always seemed right to me. It's bound to be tough when your kids fly away, but I'd like to think that she's proud of him despite her worries.

Very nice job.

[estepheia]

Thank you.
I think he'd like Australia - and the Australians.
The thing that somehow bothers me, ist that his family is in Sunnydale, when things go kablooey. Oh well, in MY universe they get out in time.

Awww...

Oh, you have an Oz icon! Nice!
I no longer have a paid account, so most of my icons are gone. *mope*
anyway, thank you for your "Awww."
I like to think that the Osborne left Sunnydale when all the other people fled, and that one Christmas Eve Oz will just turn up on their doorstep.... :)
