Yet another deadline...
So...this might be the excuse I've been waiting for to write that babyfic I've been meaning to get around to....
Day of Indulgence, right here. Write whatever the heck you want, without judgment. Check it out.
Also, I know I've got six zillion comments to reply to (and how much do I love how my super-angry post last night took off that way?), but it might be a bit before I do because MY SISTER'S GETTING BACK FROM EUROPE TONIGHT!!!! These have been a very long three months without her, and I expect over the next couple of days to be spending most of my time with her, so don't think I'm neglecting you: I just love her more. ;) But who knows; I may post seven drabbles tomorrow. We'll see. Fab prompts, people!
Also, this tag should have existed long, long ago.

And this seemed like a good time to ask since you're gonna be super busy with your sister back in town, but do you think you might be able to beta the next chapter soon-ish? I've gotten on this writing kick and I'm hoping to have the rough done by tomorrow night (before Dollhouse double eps air!) and I'd like to post it on Tuesday. But if you're busy, I totes understand! ♥
Maybe this sounds crazy, but I get the feeling that your sis being gone kinda got you down (not depressed exactly) the entire time she was gone. So I'm really happy for you that she's back! Yay to sister!love!

Also, I'm more than a little convinced that a huge portion of my Dawn-love is that I'm as much of a big sister as Buffy is, and I'd totally do that for her. So yeah, I probably have been down since she's gone. I missed her. *tear*
As for betaing: yes. I'm thinking Sunday afternoon/evening might be a good time for it. But who knows: maybe I'll get to it sooner, so go ahead and send it whenever you're finished. I'm excited to see what happens after the CLIFFHANGER OF DOOM.
Also, this is how much I love my sister: I'm going out with her and our cousins tomorrow night instead of staying home and watching Dollhouse.
[ETA] I forgot to answer your question! Well, tonight my family's going out to get hot chicken at my sister's favorite restaurant. And then I expect we'll ransack her luggage to see what she bought us and make her give us a fashion show of all the clothes she bought. Tomorrow after work she and I are going out with two of our cousins. And then Saturday night is my work party--at a hockey game, no less--so I'm taking her along with me. And Sunday, we're having Thanksgiving food again with random members of our family, because she missed it while she was gone. So that's quite a bit of time together; we'll probably be screaming at each other halfway through it, but we'll get over it. Y'know.

Now that is the definition of love - sacrifice! :D Does she watch Dollhouse? Maybe y'all can watch it together later on in the weekend.
And Sunday night would be perfect! I'm really excited (is it sad that the events of my story get me excited?) about what's happening next (the action is only getting started - get ready for epic Buffy kickass ridonculousness) and all I want to do is babble to you about what's gonna happen next "And then she does this and this and Spike does this and omg they kickass!"
no subject
No! You should totally be excited about your fic! I was totally feeling the same way with L&B--I just wanted to flail about it! So I'm thrilled you're feeling like that, too.
the action is only getting started - get ready for epic Buffy kickass ridonculousness That is what I want to hear. That right there.
"And then she does this and this and Spike does this and omg they kickass!" If you did babble at me like this, I'd love it!

Here's a little snippet of stuff so far for funsies:
“Faith, fight. You hear me? You don’t get to die today.” She slapped her, too light to hurt a Slayer, but hard enough that it would have bruised a normal human being. “Faith.”
“Jeez, B,” Faith wheezed, eyes fluttering open to glare at her. “I can’t even get shot without you telling me I’m doing it wrong.”
“I’ll make you a deal,” Buffy said, voice wavering. “You don’t die on me and I’ll stop ordering you around.”
“Yeah, right,” Faith chortled, her laugh turning into a gasping cough.
And I'm also realizing that I have Buffy, Faith and Spike (my newly realized potential OT3) and so there's gonna be some snarking and joking from Faith and Spike in there, too.
no subject
And I love the way you've written Faith and Buffy's relationship here! (SNARKY, SNARKY FUN!) I know I've said it before, but Faith on her own doesn't interest me all that much. But Faith interacting with Buffy? Fascinating stuff.
Yay!

I have a couple of people like that on my flist. And they probably have some on theirs...
Really, it's just one big circle with all of us envying each other. :)

YAY Lauren babyfic!!!

The Day of Indulgence sounds like a fabulous idea. Except, I've spent most of the last year working on my indulgence fic; I think I'm out of indulgences to write. *g*

Here's my plan: finish Yuletide and the Dollhouse fic I have in the works. Then, by Jan. 1, start working on my novel every single day. If I'm good and I get a lot accomplished on it, starting on Feb. 1, I will let myself start the babyfic. And then after that the Dawn/Immortal fic, if I can prove to myself that I can juggling original and fan writing at the same time. I hope I can!
Isn't it a great idea? I'm so glad you indulged your desire for Spike mpreg. It's ridiculous how much I love your fic.

It's ridiculous how much I love your fic.
Awww. It really is a little pathetic how much I still love hearing things like that, even from folks like you, who I know like the fic because you agreed to be my beta and all! I guess it's because Seraph is nearer and dearer to my heart than any other fic I've written.
Anyway, thank yew. :)
