In the land of scarlet - it holds fast its own.

She looked down at perfect porcelain hands and screamed. She could see them, she could feel them, but they weren't hers. Feeling rushed over them, starting like small needles, and then moving like fire to consume them. It went from a feeling into the literal. All she could do is watch as they burned ( Read more... )

Damn Gina.
Day-ham.
I sort of know what's happening here.
It gives me chills.

Yeah, you could read a lot of this. Although I realized as I wrote it, I failed completely at the pronoun game. That's partly intentional, and partly cause it was 2am and I should have been doing homework. But Vivian - somewhere in the middle of a book on state directed development - lept up and down in my mind and said "write for me. Now."

I'm glad you like it.

Very very nice.

What do you think atrocity means, little girl? royalamusement March 28 2006, 14:42:54 UTC

Thank you.

I don't know when Rev's robes mentally changed for me, but they totally have. V is totally expecting his cassocks to appear in the midevil rich velvets any time now. :)

I think I'm most impressed by the transitions and the imagery. You do a fantastic job of taking one very visual, visceral scene and transforming it into a new set of fantastically vivid images. I envy that.

Oh, and posts that include my character rule. Do those more often.

Thank you muchly. I'm trying to do a color based post, and not be sutble about it, so its very image based. I'll admit, its very hard not to use synonyms for 'red' and simply use the word itself.

It is truly amazing how many red heads we have in this chronicle. I wrote this before I started adding the descriptors and was like - "Huh. That's impressive."

I'm suprised you aren't bugging me to do more mage posts. :)

I'll take whatever posts I can get.

Thank you. You and your crew set the bar for IC LJ drama, though - the rest of us just struggle to keep up. :)
