Thank you so much, Sweetie!

I hope your eyes' and hand's work are not missed too much in this one...
(And guess who will be (hopefully?) the first to get to read the next chapters... :D )

Thanks for pointing out your favorite lines, I always love to hear what worked well!

Wow! That's one hell of a review!

'So this is technically Bangel' - Yeah, well, it's not my fault the writers thought it would be a great idea to let this wonderful girl learn the hard way...

'what if... the razor blade was in the cotton candy all along?' - I kind of think that this was what I automatically thought of writing about cotton candy, why I came up with this image in the first place :D

I've never written S1 Buffy before, so I'm glad it seems to have worked out. She was really just a typical (and still soo young!)Teenager in the beginning, right? She just never was allowed to be one.

' (are you... making me have Bangel feelings?)' - nope. Never. You're just empathetic and feel for her, don't worry. And feeling for her and wanting to kick his a** don't exclude each other :)

'and this could explain why he was willing to attack Buffy on Halloween and eventually even hire assassins. Dru comes first.' - that's the only logical explanation I can think of. Nothing else makes sense if you try to reconcile S2 Spike with the ( ... )

I really like this "glimpses" format, like a string of little jewels giving us an essential look right into the characters' minds.

His name looks good when she writes it down. Especially when she writes it close to hers.

This so perfectly captures Buffy teenager infatuation with Angel!

Sorry for replying so late - RL is being a bitca to me again, free time wise *sigh*

Thank you, I'm really glad you liked these! She was so young in S1, wasn't she? (Oh, I remember well those days when I did the same thing...:) ) Well, that innocence went downhill fast in S2...

I Second this from Double Dutchess on the excellence of this "gem"

His name looks good when she writes it down. Especially when she writes it close to hers.

This is fine work - if you were waiting for your "muse" to come back - based on these time & essence gems - its back.
I have such admiration for works that say so much with this format of Few Words- Big Meaning.

REALLY NICE!

Thank you so much! I'm pretty sure this is what makes my muse stay :)

I love writing 100 words drabbles. Which is funny, really, because I'm usually a woman of many, many words. But I love playing around with language, and having the possibility to make a point come across - well, pointed through the limit is really satisfying! I'm glad you liked them!
