I came home yesterday at 10 PM to discover that the power in my building was out (due to the snowstorm). I had one candle and no flashlight, so it was very, very creepy. Power wasn't back until 11 AM. Also, I went into internet withdrawal; it was driving me absolutely insane that I couldn't check my email. Yes, I really am addicted to the internet.

Is anyone going to see Adam Busch's band, Common Rotation, at the Bitter End on Saturday? I'm thinking about going, since it's right near me, but I don't want to go alone. So get in touch and let me know if you'll be there; maybe we can meet up.

Today the new stories I posted involve Buffy rescuing Spike. Total coincidence how that happened.

Anyway, you should all read them as they're both good:

"descant descending" by macha
cante fable in ten parts about the hieros gamos or sacred marriage in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, in which Buffy descends to the underworld on Spike's behalf
Season Seven, Spike/Buffy, 37634 words.

"The Rescue" by Elsa Frohman
Six weeks! You can't expect me to just leave him there!
Post-Never Leave Me, Rated PG-13, Spike/Buffy, 12379 words.

And, weirdly enough, the works in progress that I updated today both begin right after Buffy rescues Spike. As they are also good, I'll mention them here:

"Believe" by Rocky [Chapter 24 added]
Post-Showtime, Rated PG-13, Spike/Buffy, WIP.

"Offerings" by OneTwoMany (Sabre) [Chapter 5a added]
The intensity of his love terrifies her. She thinks she doesn't want that kind of responsibility. Knows she doesn't deserve it. Wonders if she has anything to offer in return.
Post-Showtime, Rated NC-17, Spike/Buffy, WIP.

No, I'm not going to post my daily update here every day, but I am now because I thought this coincidence was cool.
