Interesting article about feminism and our fascination with the intersections of vampires, sexuality, and gender. Buffy the Vampire Slayer series is referenced.

"I began to view the world at large through borrowed eyes, eyes more like those I wanted to own."

"In my view having babies was supposed to be something beautiful, not a duty. Something incredible, not role-playing. Bringing new life into this dying world, promising hope for a sane tomorrow. As I saw it, any expectation of sanity rested in a woman's womb."

"It wasn't like my life had changed at all, and maybe that was part of the problem. Because something inside me was different. Shifting, like a tide or sand dune. That something was growing, stretching, taking shape beneath my skin. And I wondered if very soon it might blow me apart at the seams."

IN THE INTEREST OF BEING HAPPY, I AM REPOSTING MY ENTIRE DOCTOR + KITTENS PICSPAM. DO NOT DOUBT THIS IS CALLED FOR. INSTEAD OF THINKING ABOUT THE FUTURE, WE CAN THINK ABOUT KITTENS INSTEAD.

Title: Liebestod, Part II: Chronicle of Wasted Time
Chapter:
4/?
Author: Devi of Shalott (deviofshalott@gmail.com)
Rating: R
Timeline: BtVS, post-Chosen; 1800
Pairing: Buffy/William/Spike (yeah, it's confusing for her, too)
Disclaimer: The characters (mostly) and storylines (partially) contained herein belong to people more powerful than myself. No moneys involved—I’m just playing. ‘Cause it’s fun.
Summary: As much as she’d dreaded it over the past couple of days, she’d hardly expected to find herself face to face with him now. Not here. And especially not like this. But perhaps she was just imagining things. Not that she’d had prior experience, but time travel was bound to do all sorts of funky things to your brain...Like make you see dead vampires parading around as Victorian gentry.
Author's Note: As far as narrative, this directly follows The Widening Gyre (which you may find here). I do recommend that you read it first--it's pretty short--since otherwise you might find yourself a bit confused.

I barely use my lj account but I might as well give it a go.....


I don't know why but, the increasing IchiHime sigs I keep seeing in the UlquiHime FC are driving me nuts! XD
Could this be a sign that UlquiHime is taking in some lost castaways?? Could it be all an ebil plan to fill up my beloved club with moles!? *le gasp* DX

Arg, my fears are unfounded but that's how I feel :/ ....I think fandom is getting to me! *sigh* I used to be so innocent~ :S


Ps: I'm soooooooooooo disappointed with the Mexicans team at the Amazing Race: Latino América

Faith is the seed, practice the rain,
And wisdom is my yoke and plough.
Modesty's the pole, mind the strap,
Mindfulness my ploughshare and goad.
