The sky was heavy with clouds, as if they'd burst any moment and just start with the monsoon. But no, they just hung there, 'heavy, black and pendulous' as described in The Rocky Horror Picture Show. 'Heavy, black and pendulous' never sounded like a good physical description of clouds - definitely a good description of something else. Okay, not ( Read more... )

My phone call with Buffy still disturbed me. But my phone call with Wesley disturbed me more. He was right, I'm regretful to admit. We are better of in England with the way things are. The lesser targets Buffy has right now, the better. I also gotten the new that Dawn was on her way to England.

Poor girl. First she looses her friend then her sister, and all that right on the heels of loosing her mother. I'm going to have to pick her up this evening. I'm not certain if Willow will come along, if she's ready for that. Am I even ready to tell her what I must?

Looking up at the thunder, I can't help of the irony of it. How appropriate, the weather is trying to adjust to my mood. Or perhaps the news I'm about to tell her. How do you tell a girl her best friend died when she's so fragile? I've no idea and I don't really know how ( ... )

I felt my heart skip a beat. Bad news? What more could there be? His mention of Tara... there was something worse than that? Something to equal that? I stopped walking and looked at him, trying to dig up my barriers for the worst, trying to anticipate ( ... )
