Heh, this one isn't the VS, in fact. That one got to the end of Part 1 and then I stopped again. This a story I wrote set in the Wishverse from S3 - I wrote it as an exercise in script format, just to see what that was like, and have always wanted to re-write it as narrative, to really get into the heads of the characters. Since it is mostly minor characters rather than regular cast, and is set in an alternate universe, it gives me a lot of freedom to play with, instead of having to worry about getting characterisation right! And re-writing it means that most of the creative work is already done anyway, so it's a relatively easy project to take my mind off things.

The VS is much the same, actually - it's basically original fiction, having only one borrowed character. And since I skipped ahead into phase two, I've changed both the location and most of the characters, so it's like starting something completely new instead of trying to get back into something old. If that makes sense.

Anyway, it's just nice to be doing something different to clear my head.

And, um, yes - Chelsea and I must have watched about a dozen episodes of BtVS last weekend! It certainly re-aquainted me with the show *G*
