So the B/S fanfiction Vinum Et Rosae, sequel to Sang et Ivoire, has finally come to an end, at 260,000+ words and 58 chapters.

I took a temporary somewhere in the mid-30s, when the shit had started to really hit the fan.

I want to finish it, but I'm afraid that if I do, it will yank my heart out and crush it to pieces.

Someone tell me... will I be satisfied and at least semi-happy with the end? Yes/No. And no pulling my chain here, please. :pout:

I've had it with the angst fest. I too dropped the story when things got really grotesque. Not to rain on Holly. She's a great talent. I'm just tired of stories where angst is the star and focal point of the "story". Don't give me angst for angst's sake. I was especially frustrated back in those last few weeks prior to BtVS's conclusion -- where the trend was about "who could out angst who" or who could write the most twisted messed up story -- and it's still that way to an extent. Aside from a couple of authors who still have W'sIP I've been weaning myself off BtVS fiction.

I didn't drop it-- I was always intending to finish reading it. I just stopped at one point for some school reason, and later just kept saving the chapters for later without actually reading them.

::gets sad on leslina's behalf:: I'm sorry to hear that. Then again, you're not sorry about it, so, um, never mind. :)

*chuckle* Nope Im not sorry about it all. BtVS fic just isn't as exciting as it used to be. People are too caught up with the "angst-ometer". I want to read something more meaty.
