Wow!

And, if you didn't get that... WOW!

This is truly, hauntingly beautiful. Really getting into the head of an original character, interacting with a character we came to love even if, and please excuse the pun, we didn't see enough of him.

Betcha by golly, Cordy had that conversation about floating towels with Dennis as well - in fact I can almost hear it :-)

Thanks for writing this,
Still under Willow & Tara's spell,

Do you post on Yahoo's Slayerlit by chance? I recognize that sig.

Hi,

yes I do. Seems a bit odd, now that I don't think of myself as a willtara shipper anymore, but it's like a big comfy blanky... now, where have I heard that before?

Awww... so sad and sweet. Ghosts of Cordy and Dennis haunting the place - what a neat and heartbreaking idea.

Thanks!

aww nice :) Where does it hint Cordy's there too, though? I'm missing it somehow.

Half the story is from Alison's POV; the other half is from Cordelia's.

I could say that is hauntingly beautiful and sad...

Oh look - I did!

Thanks!

I enjoyed the contrast of the two girls' different views of Dennis - how Alison has friendly instincts but holds back, while Cordelia never did. But it's a very sad piece in the end. Sniff.
