:) The Summers sisters FTW - it just makes me sad and stabby that people hate both characters; and/or that people focus on Dawn's relationship to Spike to the absolute exclusion of her relationship with Buffy. I mean, Buffy gave up her LIFE to save her sister (and the world). It's like you said, sisterly love trumps everything.

I was writing a response to you before btw and LJ gobbled it up - stupid, stupid LJ.

You've been on my mind lately! How have you been? I'm way behind in posting the link to your story - will do that TOMORROW, no fail. (I'm finally pulling myself out of the cave of depression, little by little.) Also, the Tara meta? On hold but not forgotten. the post I did the other day about "Riley" has my mind going in another direction (but I think I figured out how to link Riley and Dawn's arcs in S5 mwhahahaha....Wait til I compare Blood Ties with ITW.)

Also, remember when you challenged me to "write my own fic"? I've got a very VERY rough draft for a B/T & B/S S6 fic. *gulp* When I've got it in better shape (if ever) would you be interested in looking at it?
