New FICLET
Feb. 22nd, 2004 08:23 pmPop quiz! I have five WIP and people posting heartfelt pleas for me to finish or at least update. This inspires me to...
A) think about how Angel should end.
B) write a ficlet about it.
C) hum loudly so I won't hear the groans.
D) all of the above.
Anyway...find the new fic, SAFIDY (S/B and PG) at:

Some people have said this post isn't at the top of my list...so I am refreshing it.

I've always loved the way you know them from the inside out. Loved the insight you bring to me about them and the way you reveal it through your wildly entertaining stories.
Thank you so much for the lovely feedback

He chose to change the lives of thousands of people he had never met. In theory, in a good way, but not only would all the vampires have to deal with changed senses like Spike, there must have been quite a lot of waking up freezing cold in crypts going WTF?
And so I approve of the new title, as well.
In a way, taking the (past) victims out of Angel's choice made the decision he made simpler (in terms of historical continuity), but also less obvious... dusted or human, vampires would all still be gone. I suppose them not being damned was a Good Thing... but I still have my doubts as to where unsouled vampires go, and how much they mind once they're there. So it was more a champion's choice, and one Spike might not have made... except that he was so sure Buffy loved Angel that he might have done it for her.
Excellent, thank you.
