I'm spamming y'all like crazy lately, aren't I?
FINE!
Gakked from everybody ever:
Comment and I'll tell you my favourite fic of yours that I've read, and why. If it's a longfic, I'll try to pinpoint favourite chapter (but no guarantees!). Or, in the event that I haven't read anything of yours, I'll comment back and ask for one thing of yours I absolutely must read.
I've sort of been putting this off because if I haven't read anything of yours I'll be embarrassed. So seriously: rec me! I love you all!
Also! Links!
First read this about how filmmakers are taught not to make films where women talk to each other. Then read the follow-up here about why and also about why it sucks to have curly hair. Think of it as foreshadowing for the time when I'll finally make my epic post (complete with a picspam of me!) about my lifelong...relationship with my hair.

I felt like it would be redundant for me to just say, "Yeah, I love 'Seraph' a whole lot." Like, you knew that already!
(Somehow it feels more respectable liking babyfic when I've got a writer as good as you who agrees with me.) I feel exactly the same way!
It's weird: I'm very specific about what kind of genderbending I relate to. And for some reason, Spike is like the ultimate gender-bend character for me: I see Buffy proposing to him, and him being more of the hands-on parent, and her taking charge in most areas of their lives...etc.
I cared a lot more how the scenario affected Spike than how it affected Spike, Member of the Male Species. And that's why it worked so well. Seriously. If you'd been trying to make some sort of statement on gender or whatever, it wouldn't have worked nearly as well as it did. You were caring about how Spike related to it specifically. And that's awesome.
ME, TOO. No, seriously: I had the exact same experience with the no-shampoo thing. I did it for about a month, and every day: grease. And finally my mama said, "This isn't working. It's ridiculous. Go wash your hair--and use shampoo." And so I did! No regrets!
If I have kids, however, and they inherit my curls, I won't start using shampoo on them ever, and so they won't have the same issues. *nods*
(ANYA! I love her wedding hair! And Hallie's hair is pretty awesome.)
