tarotgalI just finished reading Deep Water (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) by Josepha Sherman, Laura Anne Gilman. There's a passage I thought I'd type up here for y'all
Willow's preforming a spell...
The skin twitched slightly under Willow's hand, a hazy glow forming in her palm, and drifting out to cover Ariel's shoulders, gathering over the surface of the sealskin.
"It's working..." Oz said in a whisper. Xander nodded, his nose wrinkling slightly as some of the spell dust reached them on a current from the school's ventilation system.
"Aegir, look upon your child with favor.
"Aegir, look upon your child with love.
"Release the bonds of human making.
"Release her to-"
"Haaa-chooo!"
Willow squeaked, Oz started, and Ariel leaped forward off the table, directly into Giles' arms. The glow burst like a soap bubble, and Watcher and selkie both fell over backward, landing on the tile floor with a loud and painful-sounding crash.
Xander, his hand covering his offended nose, blushed a deep, unattractive red. "Sorry."
Unattractive? Say what?
Nummy nummy ;-)

Date: 2007-04-24 08:26 pm (UTC)Wasn’t last year a big enough reminder of why he shouldn’t drink so much- especially on his birthday? A party was hard to turn down thou- all of the free drinks going to his head way too quickly. Cedric groaned as light streamed in through his bedroom window. A small sound and shuffling of sheets at his side caught his attention- a smile breaking out across his face as his legs tangled with far more tan ones. Last year he had awoken to a hangover and a note- the promise of good things to come. While the hangover was still there, actually waking up with Oliver was far more thrilling.
