Ooh. I could see this so well. Excellent choice of details.

Thanks. It was one of the first drabbles I ever wrote so choice of details was crucial.

Might I take this opportunity to persuade you to bring one of your genfics over here and post it? Miss Kitty springs to mind, I'd love to provide her with a basket on the comm.

Heh. I was just opening gmail to ask you whether one of my drabble series was gen enough. It does have pairings after a fashion, but is most definitely not romantic.

I was planning on posting Miss Kitty (or at least the first chapter), and Spike in Wanderland (not to be confused with The Vorpal Blade).

I thought I would start with a drabble or two first since I'm about to take off for the day, and probably won't be able to post anymore until late this evening.

I'd really like the whole of Miss Kitty here if you can bear the thought of re-posting a chapter at a time. It's such a unique style and so very different from anything that's been posted to date.

I'm not sure about the room drabbles. You might run them past shinodabear before you start posting.

Yes, I can see it happening like that. Good job.

Thank you. I dithered about the time setting but decided it had to be modern to fit the canon.

That's one of the reasons I felt the details were so well chosen. The drabble is so atmospheric but we are getting information that just flows with the story.

*flails*

Drogyn!Fic! I loved Drogyn and wanted much more of him. He's such a fascinating character and Alec Newman is just wonderful as Drogyn. I loved him in Dune (a lot more than I loved Dune), so always happy to see something written about Drogyn, and this is excellent.

Why thank you. I love writing 'minor' characters and using them in longer fics. Because we've seen so little of them and there's so little given 'canon', we have the bare bones of a character to flesh out and develop.

He's due to appear in the next chapter of my WIP (which I have yet to start posting here) and plays a major role in the 'end game'.

You know, I don't think I've read much Drogyn fic at all. I think, for me, he's one of those characters that never got to sink in enough. Though, for some reason, I won't forget Numero Cinco . . . Anywho, I like it! Nice use of details.

Drogyn's due to appear in the next chapter (16) of my WIP (which I have yet to start posting here) and plays a major role in the 'end game'.

Thanks. He'll turn up again in my WIP very soon.
