Thank you for your time, votes, and patience with my flailing. I now return you to your regularly scheduled life.

Now what am I going to do?

Go Buffy!

I am new to Live Journaling so had never heard of the Steel Cage voting thing and then, lo and behold, Buffy wins it - on my first time voting! Hurrah! I must have good karma at the moment or something. (Of course, being Spike obsessed, I would want him to win everything - including Miss Universe, all the Oscar categories and perhaps the speed skating Olympic gold medal - you know, anything so that I could see him accepting it in a tuxedo, or a tight lycra suit or even a sequined gown. Wouldn't matter really, such is the depth of my obsession)

But failing that, who better than B herself!

By the way, Penny_Lane-42, I blame you for getting me into this, when I should be working. I only joined the LJ community after I read your story 'Kaleidoscope' (BEST fanfiction story EVER (But then her hand (such a small hand, to sculpt death and life with equal dexterity, to have been covered with blood and ash) reaches out, oh, so tentatively, and rests against an expanse of black cotton-covered chest' - that sentence just kills me and the whole story is just as if you got into my head and travelled around my own version of the BTVS universe) I followed the link to your page and 'voila' another reason not to mark Grade 6 essays! (THANK YOU!)

Well, Spike made it pretty far last year, actually. I think he knocked out Veronica Mars, actually, and I didn't vote that round because I didn't feel like I could choose between them.

you know, anything so that I could see him accepting it in a tuxedo, Um, Spike + Tuxedo = ME BEING DEAD. OF HOTNESS.

Wow. That is possibly the biggest compliment I've ever been given. It's blown me away. Thank you.

Did you find "Kaleidoscope" on ff.net or somewhere else? Just curious!

I hope you continue to enjoy your time on lj! It's a fantastic place, even now when it looks like we're about to have some flamewars tear our little corner of fandom apart. *sigh*

Again, thank you so much!

Thank you for replying - it is the start of the working week for me so to find that on my computer is a great treat! I am about to go to an assembly of nearly 400 teenagers who have to listen to the Vice Principal droning on about recyling for the 1000th time and it is my job to keep them quiet. So I needed something nice to keep me going!

I found your story on fanfiction.net. (By the way, it is REALLY fascinating the million ways people can interpret or play around with the same characters. It is a great look into some very interesting, not to say, weird, minds!) I think your stories are the best and I hope that you write a book some day as you really have a gift. Perhaps you already have and I can buy it! And I say that as an English teacher who is an obsessive reader.
