Re: Shall i compare thee to a summers day? nahh....it's wint

Postby shuyaku » Sat Oct 04, 2003 5:22 pm

Wow, it's kinda nice to be found :p Okay, so no running willy, nilly but I did frolick... just a little. Little, little... tinsey even :blush



But I came back :D And I read - twice :applause I like, I like. No wait, that's not right... I love, I LOVE :bow You did a great job with the :kiss And very sneaky with the ear covering :lol



That was a really sweet update (notice how I DID NOT say ending? :eyebrow ) There has to be more problems to solve - there is that nasty coffee shop that's still open. Willow has her own company, Tara needs to make her mark now (I can't see her working for Willow forever - she's much too strong for that :glasses )



You keep writing - I'll keep reading. It's a perfectly good plan!

I loved the titles of your threads, very amusing. I loved this fic, but god I was getting ready to tear my hair out. Buffy was so nice trying to help, but she wasn't helping at all! She was making everything worse! But thank god Willow didn't listen to her at the end. I guess we can say it was all belief in a fortune cookie. Very cute! Thanks for this fic. If you don't continue this, I'd love to see another story from you!

When I finally make it back, it's OVER!



Okay must admit, GREAT OVER, err, GREAT ENDING, REALLY, but I dont want it to end... sniff...

I mean I really liked it, the whole cluelessness, Buffy's surprising insight, the valium rash, and the whole fortune cookie luck!





I'M a sucker for AU, gotta admit it, so I hope you do make a comeback or a sequel or a whatever you want!





Cheers

That...was the ipidimy of perfection!! (did i use that 'ipidimy' word right? i dont even think i spelled it correctly) ahem, anyway...this was just...probably my favorite part of the entire fic (so far...*cough*hint*)



i loved that whole way you set it up!! it was PERFECT!!! absolutly perfect!! :bow :bow i bow down to you :bow :bow

I agree with Buffy's last word; FINALLY :) . Can't have Tara crying in some storage room, nope. Amazing that Willow managed to remain standing calm until Tara tapped her shoulder by the way. The trick worked though, which finally managed to break that weird invisible wall between them, heh.



If this IS the end I truly hope that Tara will manage to limit Willow's work hours to more reasonable ones. Depending on what Tara herself wants to do with her life I suppose she could another job in Willow's firm or move to another firm, the latter would make personal vs. work stuff easier :) . Assuming they'll get more personal now, heh.



Now how to explain Willow's behaviour to the rest of the staff....should be fun.

The Rose24-Oh cool! i got applause! whoo....and yes, tis out in the open, and shall remain there, Hmm....vacation eh? sounds like a nice idea...oh great, guess what? now i'm imagining beaches and bikinis.....and now...i can't espeaka inglesia....hmm perfect ending...Oooo sounds like i shoudn't continue then?



intricate mirage-dear, poor buffy's getting whooped on....by you! hmm...Oh, but wait, i don't get whooped on, so hey, it's all good. i'm okay with that! Hey, now, i can say i HAVE been kissed (electronically, i know) but, hell, that's better than my original record...i'm so pleased to make you a happy kitten! you're brightenin' mah day, dude. i'm being poked now? huh...didn't know that.



justin- oh, dear, you know i was wondering where you'd gotten to, mr. justin....bad you! very bad you! hahahha yes....the brain was missing at the time....heh, i was wondering how to really screw up the situation and then it came to me,"buffy....." alas, i'm not very nice to her after all. ah well, i salute you fictional character Buffy! wherever you are!



snuggle79-going onnyyyy? wow....i've never had some one say that to me before. well, if the talley's come in positive, i shall continue...needa make a poll now to see how many want more....*goes to make chart* ah screw it....that's too much math for a person who's already sick of it....ah the kiss...yes...umm...i have no idea where in the frilly heck that came from...i'm glad you don't hate it! that's a positive! oh yea, the deaf trick was fun. i had to keep that in there, although changed it around....and i'll try to continue it, okay? just needa think up somethin'.....



sam darls-oh i'm sorry, didn't mean to make you sad. i'll continue it for you if you like? hmmm perhaps i shall....and thankyou sam for always being there in the first place!



effrena-hey now! i didn't see before, have i? or am i just really bad at remembering people? well it's wonderful to hear from you all the same! whoo another person for no-end....



Kerrison20-thankyou! that's such a grand compliment, dude. i'll try to continue writing then, and then i'll start posting like mad again...but which way shall i go...write first then post alot? or write a bit and post...choices...choices...well, first i have to think something up i guess...



Washi- ah! you read it! thankyou! ah yes, the ear covering thing was something that for some reason stuck in my head for a day and a half until i actually wrote it down. heh, i remember when i thought it up, i was like, "whoo! finally i have the answer!" oh *blushes* dear, yea, the kiss, umm....i'm bowing down to you and your ability with this stuff, so umm...i'll go into a small dark room now and cower before thee.....but thanks all the same! i will try to write more then...



shuyaku-yes, you have been found, and i must needs give thanks once again for your help, dude! even though you did frolick....must say the frolicking was a bit of a shocker there...i always pictured you as a runner for some reason. ah but you read! whoo and hoo....hmmm people are being very nice with the kiss and deaf thing....kinda funny; the worst and best parts to me of the chapter....oh, and you're a non-endy person vote as well, eh? it is true, we have a very cunning plan; i write, you read...we should just stick to the plan then...



xita- ah! you reply again! whoo....oh the titles? heh, thankyou! no one's actually mentioned them except me on occasion...sometimes i wonder if i'm the only one reading them, so thanks for that! and yea, i was kinda wanting to tear my OWN hair out after a while....half of me was like, NOW! the other half of me was like, "You don't know how to WRITE IT!!" so kinda caught between the two.....yea fortune cookies rock to me...don't know why...and all the rules of a fortune cookie are actually what i've been doing for 16 years...my own cooky tradition. thankyou again, your words are sweet to hear....err...read.



LostWithoutTara-thankyou! you're replies have been a blessing to read, and i'm wondering if you'd still reply even if i killed the climax and continued to write it?



singgirl-oh....the kissage....*looks nervously* thankyou...oh dear, now i'm being threatened with peace...wow....that's a new one...okay then, can't deny peace when it's being thrown at me...



Arwen276-Eep...*runs and hides behind a thin pole like scooby doo and disapears* yea...i was wondering where you had gone off too...didn't want to stop the flow...so i kept it going...sorry dude. but here's to the thought of me trying to continue it! (and hey, when you summerized the story in a nut shell like that, i suddenly realized how insane i really am....valium...fortune cookies...and buffy insight....three of the strangest things known to woman...)



bluewillowwitch-You SLEPT?!! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOO.....*cough cough* erm...i need to be a better vocalist for that i think....oh i'm sorry, did i cut off the story too soon? oh hey now, you're bringing out the big guns....bananas? you use my OWN weapons against me??? that's just...cruel....



Tempest Duer-whokay....mi bolsillo es su bolsillo....( my pocket is your pocket) so....we're pockety...or pocketful...for some reason that sounds like to me either we've got chicken pocks or are part of the rockets...wierd....Ooo fic of your own? do tell....the title? summery? where is it? how can i mail order for it? who should i pay to the order of? and what is the s & h?



foreverpiper-okay that's by far the best thing i've heard in a while....ipidimy...gotta love it dude....and whether or not it's spelled or used right, i love it. i did it perfectly now? well hey, that's just....cool. i'm so happy you like the intricate way i set it up. it's nice that you noticed. and hey look! i even got some one to like xander! wow....thanks....its kinda funny actually i never got the hating xander thing, so i decided to make him a positive in this (although only briefly mentioned)



MellindraX-cutest things for you? whoo....i'm so happy...i'm making people think what i write is 'cute' yay! so yeah.....i will try to write more then....try that is...try....



Grimlock72-oh cool! you got mah dumb little side joke. oh yea i was wondering when i wrote willow's perfectly still bit how in the heck she could survive it...i guess i was praying she had extra willow-power there...heh...get it?....get it? i made a funny.... oh hey! explaining the behaviour to the staff? now there's an idea i can use! thanks!



oh and i must say....it made me laugh out loud with the side note about how to spell epitome....i've never had anyone group or person debate over how to spell a complimentory word for me. i think i HAVE to update this story now...just for that....just gotta get me some inspirational music....paintings...and uh....vibes..or something or other...thanks again dudes!

i will try to reply

BUT- you have a talent young lady!!

Please share it; that is, if you are so inclined!!! (being polite)

Hey, are ya sure you are not that experienced romantically??? Hmmmm--I'm a wonderin' cause that was soooo sweet. Wish my first kiss was like that.

OK--Im in a strait relationship/agreement since 19. Anyway--not only do I enjoy your writing talent, but I'll miss your honest comments you make:sob

You are a genuine one in my book (It's a small book, but a impressive book none the less.)

Thanks for the cookies (I'm trying to lose 20 lbs right now, but for you--Mmmmm, thanks!) I don't know why my closest friends are usually young, it's probably cause I always wanted to help people and be a therapist or somethin' --Oh well, guess I had to make a living instead. Please--- Dig into those deep, deep fantasies and keep writing, I promise to give big sisterly advice whenever needed (I'll be on-call if necessary) You are so damn smart---you are gonna impress someone (if not already) very much!!! Kay?!! OK that's my pep-talk to you. Don't let school stress you out cause, it's only a material thing in this world and won't love you like peoples do!! Oh God, I'm doing a Willow babble, sorry!!!

you probably are wonderin....what if i was to say what well, i'm agonna ask you guys...



what if i was to say i let this fic ramble into a strange world? not literally of course, cause that's been done, but what if i was to say, it may get a little...wierd? (not that you haven't been exposed to wierd already, i mean, come on, it's me) but...i don't know, i've been thinking....and that's always dangerous....and all these crazy ideas are just popping out as we speak...only they aren't in the same category as the fic originally was....i don't know. you let me know, and in the meantime i shall respond to these people:



Sappho-yea, buffy and her buffyness....she's a crazy cat....and yeah...i hope i get this story to more and interesting ideas....oh yes *muwhahahahahha* i will...



screeminguitar-okay, that's it, i'm taking you, you're now my personal complimentor/advisor/helper/guardian/

thingymabob.....i'm so happy you really like this story...that's cool....i have a talent? whoo....*does a little dance...gets tired, sits back down* and yes, i'm quite sure *clears throat* of my complete and utter bewilderment, confusion, and inexperience in anything romantic. it is quite sad. oh well i'm glad you liked the cookies, i forgot to tell you they're 110% fat free. so no need to go diety....and yea...you are extremely therapisty like...i will try to keep writing. only you just gotta ask yourself one question: do you feel like a ducky? do yeah? DUCK?! hmm....that was out of nowhere. but seriously i will try to continue it...and you think i'm smart? heh....that's cool....although i be a fool...and a half! whooo i'm gonna impress someone ....*looks for someone*.....*there is no one* ....ah damn...well okay bye dude!



the vamp nurd-uh oh....i'm pissing off the nurd again...i really gotta stop doing that....well okay, you chant more so i guess that means i gotta give more...just bear with the slowness....



LadyD33-well that was such a simple yet beautiful think to ask. will do!



bluewillowwitch-i can't? well...okay....just makin' sure of what i can and can't do...and yea, i'm trying to figure stuff out now, as we speak!



Note that could float a boat if it could: oh, hey, extra points (and perhaps a banana) if one of you can guess what made me think of the story while traveling in Germany? i'll give you a hint: it has to do with food.....and the serving of it....

I really would like for you to continue the story the way it is. There are a lot of things you can do with our two ladies in this story. They really never talk about the things that were holding them back for so long. They haven't had a real date, and they really don't know each other that well since you mention the lack of communication between them after Willow gets Tara back on her feet.

Tara: My heart doesn't stutter.


Tara: Willow, I got so lost.

Willow: I found you. I will always find you.

You got my vote for weirdness--no, no-not vote (living in stupid California --I don't mention that word anymore.) You have my confidence that no matter what you write I'm sure it will be great and interesting. Besides, our feedback will keep you grounded (not in the Tara keeping Willow grounded:whistle ) OK-that came out more sexy than it sounded in my head!! :blush

Hey, don't feel like it's sad-that you are not with someone yet! You've got a lot of time--feel lucky that you won't make a bad decision since you feel like you have had to wait.

OK-you didn't make any comment about me being straight. Glad that it didn't freak you out! Now, isn't that an ironic thing for me to say? Guess, people usually react the other way around. My big sister is gay.. and me, well, let's just say, I have had trouble falling for all my straight girlfriends...if ya know what I mean. This kitten board is so great. These are my romantic novels!!

Now, get to writing!!:boot -- Just kidding!!:kiss

Need my sugard fix now-- more 110% fat-free cookies, pweeze!! (That was pretty funny!!)

Take care, and rock on dude!! Did I tell you I live in the O.C.? (doesn't that sound sooo snobby?! That TV show cracked me up, those characters kinda irritated me. I was like, na uhhh!!) Later dude, surfs up!!



Lots of love,

Postby thebardgirl » Sat Oct 11, 2003 4:05 am

yo dudes! okay, i have some news: UPDATE! whoo, you see i'm cheering whether or not you guys are, because man oh man i've been pondering how in the heck i was to continue it from where it was. and don't worry, i know this kinda leaves the reader going, "when did this happen?" but explanations (via flashbacks) will be the next update or two.....or three....or some number n. So, without much further adieu:



Replies!

The Rose24-okay, interesting ideas you got there, well, i think it either way is good at this point. so, seeing as we have a vote for the stay-in-mode-bit, i think i'll combine the two ideas....hope you like this inadvertant update!



screeminguitar-oh 1 vote for wierd! okay, its now a tie, ah yes, we are living in the Terminator's Land now, dude, i think its best that we all be called Sarah O'Conor now....ah yes, the inevitable "it's okay to be alone" speech, well, sure it's okay, its fine and dandy. i'm doing fantabulous by myself. yup. no worries here. you're straight, and yet you talk of falling for your straight girlfriends....i'm confooosed!! how's about you just saying exactly what you are (if you feel like it and for my sanity) so i can go on with my merry life knowing what advice and for whom i'm getting. and yes! romantic novels....*sigh* i didn't think i liked, and absolutely not read them, (no one, i don't care how much like Fabio can have hair that blowin-in-the-wind-like) until i realized the kitten board is a w/t romance board. heh....funny the way the world works...



screeminguitar #2-heh....i hate drugs....i'm even afraid of tylonel....good good your dog stares at you wierd too. join the club; i'm the president.



sam darls-okay then dude, i will continue para you!



LostWithoutTara-Whoo! i got you! to read, that's fabU-lous...i almost had it all rhyme....damn....cool dude, i will try.



Tempest Duer-DUDE! YOUR FIC IS AMAZING! and now i will not shout at you anymore...but yeah....me gusta mucha dude! keep up with the writing and i'll do the same!!!





Nota- Okay, so, well, this is the newest installment, and i know it's not very long persay, but that's because there's nothing else to write as of yet in this kind of setting. And also this is the prelude into what i'm imagining will be a flashback explaining how they got from there *points at office* to here *points at update*.....thanks for reading!









Update!



Chapter 20



Have you ever dreamt a dream in which you could swear it was true? Have you ever woken up one morning, and would have traded in your own mother to show that in fact your pillow really was the person you adored, instead of it’s usual down-feather self? Willow had. The nights she had spent recently were wasted clutching to a fantasy. A vision here. A realistic touch there. But never the real person. It was all a façade to keep her subconscious ignorant, really. Because she knew very well, those dreams, those images, were bliss.



On the other hand waking up after the dreams was never as much fun. It was like school days all over again, where you would give anything, anything to just sleep one more minute. All for that one moment, when you knew very well it wouldn’t return.



But what if one day that nuzzle on your neck, that brush upon your arm or that weight across your stomach wasn’t your cottony friend, but her. What would you do? Your dream had come true, obviously, and there she lay right next to you, in your bed, sleeping away comfortably wrapping her arms around you. What would you do?



Willow didn’t know either.



The redhead had awakened one early morning feeling the sun’s soft light prickling through her eyelids. She had been dreaming a wonderful dream, as usual. Willow had found the most gorgeous creature ever to step foot on Sunnydale and saved her, from her nasty, nasty father. And the best part of falling in love with this brilliant woman: She loved her back. The dream was perfect. That was, until she had woken up, again.



But something strange started to happen when her eyes lit open. She felt something, an odd sensation, like a faint, rash tickling on her neck. It wavered in a rhythmic movement. One moment it tickled immensely, the next, nothing, and on, and on. Willow slowly moved her head, to find what piece of her pillow had caused this new sensation when she saw the actual culprit. To her immense surprise, a beautiful blond woman was asleep next to her, curled up against her back, breathing slowly upon her neck. It was her.



Looking back now, Willow would have wanted to “play it cool”. She would have chosen the more subtle approach, and gone on with the sleeping, enjoying the feeling. But, being who she was, she had to go for the Willowy approach.



“ARGH!” Willow jumped out of bed, catching her foot in the covers causing all of her, and the sheets to slip off the side of the bed.



She could have played it cool.



Thunk! Willow’s body had hit the carpeted floor with a jolt, causing her to take on a dazed look. The sheets landed effortlessly, slowly surrounding Willow and completely covering her up like a Halloween Ghost.



The strange body next to her awoke with a start as well. Willow could hear it move off the bed. “Maybe she’ll remember next time that if she’s drunk, she does NOT crash in a gay woman’s bed. And now, she’ll go tra-la-la away to her wonderland and I’ll still be here, on the ground, covered in blankets, unless of course this is her room, in which I should be getting up and apologizing instead of becoming a new type of dust-bunny, not that dust-bunnies could be human size, cause eww, and that just goes to show what happens without proper homecare—“ Willow’s internal monologue was stopped short when a long, thin hand pulled the sheet covering her face off, revealing her rosy-red cheeks and shut eyes.



“Willow, sweety, if you’re going to yell at me when you wake up like this, I swear I’m going to have to buy earmuffs,” came the seductive, but soft voice.



Willow sat still numb. Maybe this was some sort of trick. It could be. The renegade-lesbian-imitator-brigade, that comes to unsuspecting women’s houses and fools them into thinking they’re in love.



“Willow?” Willow didn’t reply, her head was still spinning from the fall and consequently, causing too many thoughts to rise up.



“Hey, Willow,” The woman knelt down, scooping up Willow’s chin in her fingers causing the redhead to look directly into her eyes. “I’m right here, really, I’m real, and so is this.” She leant in and slowly, ever so softly kissed Willow’s reddened lips.



Willow remembered now. It shot into her head like a cannon ball. One moment she was confessing her love to Tara, the next…



Then…everything. Dream or no dream, Willow had decided right then she didn’t want to wake up.













oh and one other bit....the reason why i thought this up in Germany: (since nobody guessed i'll just say it) i felt bad for all the waitresses we met....kinda hated having these gorgeous (why is it they always are?) young women waiting on me and my appetite....and then i thought up Tara as being that same kind of woman....interesting how it happens....

Last night in sweet slumber I dreamed I did see my own precious jewel sat smiling by me.

And when I awakened I found it not so; my eyes like some fountain with tears overflowed.
