Some musings on human AUs and writing.
I very, very rarely read human AUs. I like Spike and Angel (to focus just on those two for a minute) because of who and what they are, and the long and complex history that is the basis for that. Turning them into football players or High School students is selfdefeating, because I'm not interested in football players or students. Like, at all. And it's impossible to keep all the nuances of their characters when changing them so dramatically.
But... I *am* interested in Pernese dragonriders. It's a thing. Which is why I'm writing this fic I guess. Only in making my dear Spike and Angel adolescent dragonriders, I've lost huge, giant chunks of who they are. And, as the fic takes shape, I'm beginning to invent background stories and lots of other things, and they're rapidly spinning far, far away from their vampire origins. Only I rather like my new, almost OC, characters. They're fun and interesting and pretty and I like playing with them - and I really hope you'll like them too. *crosses fingers*
(Btw it's The Cherub's birthday tomorrow - she'll be two, how did that happen? - so it's doubtful if I'll be able to get online until Monday. If not, see you then!)

Anyway, I've also said all of this over on Insane Journal and I've friended you because I've been a fan of your fics for sometime and now I can't wait to see this Pern crossover if you publish it.

Hello again - and welcome! :)
I think I've read all of them...
I've read most, but not the latest ones.
I've imagined my Spuffy ending up there due to a dimensional rift or something and I just love thinking about Spike on a dragon.
Funnily enough it'd never really ocurred to me until very recently. It is however a fabulous idea!

Aw, thank you! And I am writing as fast as I can, trust me... except right now I have to go and make the house look nice. Again.
