I just got a notification in my email inbox! And yes I looked but haven't commented yet. You are so sweet *hugs*
(That is one feature of LJ I really do appreciate -but it doesn't always occur. If someone mentions my name, then yes; but name plus link to one of my posts? No. I guess because I already get those notifications in the comments themselves.)
That picspam sounds beautiful. *-* Dru/Buffy as in, parallels between the two?
Yes, but it started small (Buffybot in Bargaining and "I'll chop her into messes") and has grown from there to include Edvard Munch, and Sheila, and the notion of Dru and Buffy as "seers" but also women and madness in the verse, and - yeah. I'm beginning to think I'm biting off more than I can chew. Maybe I need to cut it in half or do it in parts.
This is really a challenge for me because I'm used to writing metas, whereas picspam-metas are sort of new (I know they are pretty common on tumblr. Or maybe it's a generational thing?) The Buffy & Joyce one is nice but I'd been planning that for a while, and I thought it'd get more comments, actually. Maybe there need to be more words, more actual "meta" to generate conversation? IDK
