Lots of thanks to Allegrita for giving me the feedback I so needed!

Enjoy!


A thing for vampires

"Obviously she had a thing for vampires."

"Yeah, I guess they're back in style."

Well, technically, YOU brought them back in style...

When you saw the bite marks on the dead girl's neck... from 30 yards away, I felt awe just shooting through you.

And hope shooting through me... "You know, some people actually find them attractive."

"Really?!?!?"

Crap; that felt more like getting shot.

Poor Mick. She really shot him down, didn't she?! (Sorry, I couldn't resist.)

How so fun to "hear" Mick's thoughts between the lines of that encounter with Beth. (And Beth--how could you say "Really??!!" like that???? Silly woman! )

[MickLifeCrisis]

Great between the lines. Mick sure did seem deflated when Beth said "Really?"

I don't blame you!

Yes he did didn't he? From the mouths of babes... I really like that scene because it's got that fun Moonlight lightness to it, and at the same time it shows Mick's predicament so well. He just can't help hoping.

Thank you for your kind comments!
