To all those in the Hob Gadling thread last night:

bobby_gadling: Hob, you were an utter and complete bastard while still managing to convey that you were in devastating pain. Brilliant job. I'm so glad you didn't hold back.

job26: Destruction is impudent and impossible and surprising and funny. And I loved his quoting Ramirez from the first Highlander movie at Hob: "You have the manners of a goat."

last1out: Oh, God, what a tough part to play. Death is so calm and collected in Gaiman's universe. And yet you portrayed a heartsick, grieving member of the Endless perfectly. You really made me love her last night.

muddypetticoats: Liz, you were intelligent and snarky in a purely Austen way, and you won Peter's heart forever by refusing to judge him. An ocean of squee, in your direction.

weallscream: Paul, every time we meet I swear that you cannot get any creepier and every time you raise the creepiness factor exponentially. You are horrifying and evil and tragic all at the same time.

My one complaint--my dial-up connection is evil. And it crashed last night in the middle of everything. WAH. Apologies to all concerned.

I'm at Peter's response now, and I am SO SORRY. I did the whole "pass out on the laptop" thing again. Keyboard imprint and all. I think that mess with Hob wiped me out more than I thought. I didn't even realize my eyes were drooping until I woke up with a faceful of computer.

Your response... *goggles* I am in awe.

I am weeping - weeping - over Peter's fruit salad analogy, and not just because my twisted little mind is taking the peaches and bananas in entirely the wrong way. I swear that is going to become my mantra - "I'm a peach.

I am so tempted to metaquotes that.

Peter didn't come up with it. He's paraphrasing an analogy from Leo Buscaglia's book Love. It was a best seller which was published around 1984--Peter, as Scabbers, certainly could have found himself around someone who was reading it.

And yes, Dr. Buscaglia (a Ph.D) really did use peaches and bananas in the analogy.

Ah, I've heard of that book. Never read it, though. Paraphrasing or not, the way Peter stated it was still hilarious.

Sometimes I am so ashamed of my field.

Thanks. It's very nice to get a nod. I hope I may earn more. Destruction is somewhat limited in his unlimitedness, so it can be hard to fit in amongst.
But I'm having fun, and I have ideas...

[pjpettigrew.livejournal.com]

Well, you deserved a nod.

And Death says you have a lot of ideas, so let's see what happens.

(I don't know why I haven't replied to this MOST INCREDIBLY REAFFIRMING THING EVER yet. Thank you so much.)

You're very welcome. And I'm quite glad that Morpheus is back. Death so needs her brother.
