The Girl with Flaxen Hair - Chapter Twelve

Jun 12, 2011 17:14

I know this update is very much overdue, as are the next chapters of A Hundred Visions and Revisions. Don't blame me. Blame the stupid storms that took out four enormous hardwoods on my property. I've been hauling logs off the driveway and out of the horse paddock for weeks ( Read more... )

"Trust me to land in the world without shrimp." Then she laughed so bitterly it frightened him.

Whatever is Buffy searching for? Not just any William will do? Is our William somehow lacking the requisite qualities? If she forsakes him, he will not last long. But why should she return, if he isn't part of the mission that she is apparently pursuing? It's all a dreadful muddle now.

Somehow, I don't think her letting him down easy is going to be any easier to take than Cecily's mocking dismissal, alas. And Italy seems to be a distant impossibility as escape in his present state.

Things will definitely get darker before they get light.

Of course, that can't be a surprise to you guys. I seem to be biologically incapable of writing a story without angst. I wonder what that says about my psyche?

Never mind. I probably don't want to know. ;D

Oh dear. This is so unhappy! *loves it* :)

lol. I'm glad you do. Angst seems to be my specialty, after all.

Yay! You wrote another chapter!
Oh noes! Unhappiness all around!

Well, I have to pile on the angst. How else would you guys know it was me? ;D

Your updates come far apart, and this story began a long time ago...Know what? it doesn't matter, the day when you post them is a very special one, because this is a wonderful fic.
This is one story in which I'm always anxious for not being able to enter it and nudge them toward the important things: look, Buffy, he's feverish! Open up, William! Talk to each other, please!
This was a scary chapter.

*blush* I'm so flattered you feel that way. I wish I could write as speedily and as well as some of the other authors on my flist, but somehow I don't seem capable. Maybe someday...

This was a scary chapter.

That was the very reaction I was hoping for. Thank you! :)

Hurts so good! Oh William, tell her. Is it a universe without vampires at all or just without those novels?

this is cmdc by the way
