"Behold The Power of Cheese!"....Grilled Cheese.
Thank you all so much for taking the time to post. You all are so sweet and thoughtful, your enthusiasm and encouragement keeps me going.
Snuggle 79- I am glad you liked our girls...I decided it was time to get them together. Did not want to tease too much.
Kathleen- I am always so happy to see you here...thanks for your thoughts...Buffy and Willow together unwittingly working things out just felt right to me. Friends do that sometimes you know, help without knowing.
Shooting Star- You know I don't exactly know why I chose grilled cheese. Maybe because it is one of those silly foods that is warm and powerful all at the same time. You know...tastes good while giving comfort. I'm glad you like...grilled cheese and stories that is.
Akira- Ahhh....thank you. One can never underscore enough the adoration Willow has for Tara. It is true...it is constant...it is always.
Xita- I'm with you...I always knew she would do her lesbian research, I am frankly quite surprised that we don't see that more.
You think I am funny? That is great. I think of myself as many things...but I have never thought of myself as funny. Maybe it is because I have to spend so much time being so serious. Now that I think of it though I do quite often make my clients laugh...even when they are very sad and have good reason to be. Hmmmm...thanks for the insight, I guess you are never to old to learn something new about yourself.
Tiggrscorpio- You see...grilled cheese is everywhere...it is universal. I will keep writing, if you keep coming to visit.
Blue 77- Hey Blue...you and me, a bottle of Baileys over on Smoochie Island (wink,wink). Come on...lets go...who can resist the two blues all lusty and liquored up...I'm sure the Captain wont mind. I'm glad you liked the update.
Karzia- Where is your lesbian? I thought you liked eating grilled cheese and lesbians. Don't you have one...maybe you should get one before the next seating. Wonderful huh? (Athame blushes...thank you.)
Aimee- You are ever faithful and true....you keep me going.
Promise me a bump this week (wiggles eyebrows), maybe a kiss and a tickle too?
Good God I am silly today....well, you all came...consider it the price of admission.
Rose- I will tell you Rose, between you and Jenn lobbying for contact you made me change my plans and brought the girls together sooner. I was gonna wait until the end of 4. Pretty shitty huh? Glad I didn't do it you old squeaky wheel you, thanks for saving me.
LeatherQueen- Dear LQ...wow...I don't know what to say. Your post made me cry. Really, real big tears...good cry, not bad...(I'm kind of the emotional sort if you all hadn't gotten that yet). I can not adequately express what your generous words meant to me.
PS....You and me over on Smootchie Island too...I'll wear my leather pants. Like Baileys?
Mollyig- I love how you always cut to the heart of it...so gentle...so wise...so insightful. Will you travel around with me and whisper in my ear...I could use some of that.
Pikescoob- When I was in college I fell in love with my Shakespeare TA. She made me absolutely stupid...I would linger waiting for glimpses of her. I would write her poetry, leave her roses and scones and yes...Baileys. She would find little presents in her pockets, her door, her mailbox and anywhere I could find to put them. Yes, hopeless romantic here...I wonder if we all have stories like this to tell. I know that one reason I love W/T so much at this time is the basking in remembrance of sweet new love...something I hope we all can relate too. Sigh.
Capricornmist- Glad I didn't disappoint. You never did tell me what kind of cream..."lesbians and cream" you said...oh...I get it...is it the kind of cream we ladies don't talk about?...Oh, I see....your secret is safe with me. See, I pay attention.
Lisa h- Glad you stopped by and thank you so much...I do appreciate the feedback. Any thoughts from your friend?
VmplrslAr- eek did I get that right? I agree with you...they make me all goose bumpy too. I'll have an order of goose bumps all around. Thank you for your kind words. Honey huh, perhaps I can use that...hmmm "words dripped from her lips like honey, oozing only syllables sweet". Food again...I'm telling you...oral...oral..oral. A new fiction is rising.
JD- You are so good to me...always nudging me along. I love the attention...and what about those bribes you promised (waggles brows)...So whatcha thinking....what exactly do I get for this next chapter? Hmmm?
hopico- Thanks hopico...clear and crisp...if you only knew...you should see the mess I make when I am writing. I just let it spill out everywhere and then edit it back. This is always with pen and paper first...upside down...right side up...in the margins...it is just silly. To make matters worse...I am embarrassed to say I write like a doctor, mostly illegible to those who try to read it. This is great of course when people are nosey but not so great when I cant even read it. One has to wonder how any of this ever reaches the board. Chapter 2 was a trial with a lot of cutting and pasting. Clear and crisp...yay! This is a triumph.
Tommo- I am so pleased you are enjoying this. I respect your opinion and know you will tell me true. I just love writing Willow... she is just so...well...you know...Willow. I suspect you love writing her too...it shows in your fics. I can't wait to get to Tara...there is something deep and beautiful. Thanks for the encouragement.
Jennpurr- Back to the study with you, you are still naughty!
While you are there take a memo:
"Dear readers, thanks for coming, thanks for reading, thanks for sharing." Athame.
Oh and Jenn...while you are at it...send them all some candy and flowers so that they understand the depth of my affection and appreciation.
I'll be right up...I think I have a few more etchings to show you.
Love to you all...be back soon,
Athame
