Thanks:) It is greatly appreciated and I'm looking forward to hearing them:)
James is fabulous in AHITW. The mummy line, the hole in the world... so much goodness. It's just an adult man reading the woman he loves a childrens book that seemed a bit ooky to me.
Mmm, James! Adore the mummy line and the questions and "annoy other people", Spike's sad resolve and...
I know that some people dislike the whole "Fred as loved by all the men"-issue, but I think they're damaged by too much shippy fanfic. What about platonic love? :-)
I love Wes, and really like Denisof, but Wes is ooky. ;-) I think he's always been unstable, but really, I didn't dislike Wed or Fres (or whatever). I kind of liked the idea that he would fixate on her intelligence; and then, she was tiny so he could feel all manly protecting her. I'm told I scare puny men off. ::manic laughter::
I do love platonic friendship, and explored it massively in Three Lions and also through the Eyes Only collaberation. It is something underexplored in fic generally, I think.
