Nom nom nom + drabble

Weee! That was quick! Many thanks to whoever nominated Why Are You Wearing That Stupid Human Suit at the Indigo Crypt Awards.



Also, for open_on_sunday's challenge "Remember" (which made me want to write Dawn/Dana, but seriously, that pairing name would be way too confusing), here's drabblage:



User Profile

Reality brings back ancient memories in disconnected flashes.

The wooden cage rocking gently when it's lifted, like the ship to Virginia. (How old was she? Was her family with her?)

Vegetables and cooked meat. (Were the tomatoes this big? Was she always this hungry?)

Powerful men who want something from her. (Damn her? Save her?)

They let her out after dark. (Is sunlight dangerous?)

"Make him a monster again," they say. "Haunt his dreams." (Is that her, haunting her own?)

Everything reminds Darla of what she was. There's barely enough reality at Wolfram & Hart to tell her who she is.

Dawn/Dana It would be very dada-ist.

Ha! :-D

Poignant.

ATS always let me more or less indifferent except for Darla's arc.

Thanks!

I always thought Darla's s2-s3 arc was one of the very best things about Angel. Joss, Tim et al really pulled out all the stops there.

Happy foamy birthday! With as many more as you desire :)

(I like the tomato detail in this one. And would of course support you writing DaDa, which never fails to be a nummy bitter treat.)

Thanks a lot! I think I've got a few more in me. :-)

I could make it Dawn/Dana/Darla and it would be like Smoke on the Water; Da-da-daaaa...

[beer-good-foamy.livejournal.com]
