Remember how I said a while back that your Sleeping Beauty re-telling was my favorite? Not anymore.

Oooo, now that I think about it, this has a very similar theme. Heh. THANKS!

This is so . . . sensory? I don't know what the best word is, but I know that I want to mist it all over like perfume.

Plus, He did die, just a little. Cue hugely inappropriate laughter that's impossible to explain to anyone else :D

Heh - I think I used the word "feel" in some form about 15 times. I kept trying to take it out because ACK REPETITION by then my lizard brain would kick in and remind me "no, that's what the story's about, numbnuts."

And woo for hugely inappropriate laughter!!!! :D

'“Jesus.” I shook my head.' This made me laugh. 'He did die, just a little.'
This made me laugh as well. I love women. I love the power they have. Men seduce or take this power because they're afraid. The one word sentence 'Life.', breathtaking, confronting.

I like all the laughing. It's always good when I manage to be a little funny. :D
