Nice. Annie is a tricky character. Some people love her and some loath her and she had a very odd position with in the show it self so I think you did a very nice job getting inside her head here.

Thanks for the discreet typo catch! Drabbling + Stress = bad combo. :)

One thing I want to do with the drabbles is take time to examine some of the characters who get lost in the shuffle because they're not part of a main slash pairing. I think Annie gets overlooked a lot because she's not as blatantly effed up as Sam and Gene, but she is a great character and definitely deserves some fanfic love.

life is always better with a Sam around. i wish for better for Annie - but I think she earned their respect all on her own in the end

I like Annie's character arc a lot, but obviously it gets over-shadowed by the power of the Sam/Gene dynamic. Hopefully a year of drabbles will give me a chance to take a look at lot of characters who don't get as much fic attention because their not part of a "dominant" ship.

I was so happy when they did give her some real moments of awesome in the 2nd series. Annie with a Whip is one of my favorite things ever. Thanks for reading and commenting.
