Thank you, sweetie. I'm not sure how well deserved these particular wins were. The reason for this piece's popularity remains a mystery to me. Not that I don't appreciate the positive reception. I just don't understand it. I killed off half the regular cast in the most gruesome, pointless, anti-climactic ways I could imagine, and then yelled, "Gotcha."

I suppose that might be fun, but--

*looks puzzled*

My beta crew disliked it rather vehemently. The public liked it rather vocally. That's put me in the marvelous position of being able to say, 'told you so,' without actually understanding why I was given the opportunity to gloat.

Though I'm not a total cad. I've amended every 'told you so' with a 'yeah, I don't get it either' for propriety's sake and because I didn't.

Big fun, that.

*hugs-a-bunches*

I just assume well deserved because every little tidbit I've ever read of yours was extremely well written!!!

*hugs and love*

Sweet of you to say. *hugs*

Her wins are deserved and she's arguably one of the best writers I've ever read (published or non) but damn her for screwing with Vicarious as much as she did.

I asked to use her Vamp!Buffy from the piece as a short for the V-day challenge over at Kinda_Gay and she wanted to touch it up. Her touch up led to a total overhaul.

*looks pointedly at Val*

I guess this is what she gets for not listening to me.

Wait...*scratches head*

Damn you, Val, damn you. =0P

Thank you...and damn you too, though, y'know, you may've just substantiated exactly how dubious our tastes actually are.

*beams innocently*
