I think I must be too anal for delicious. I decide I need a new tag and then I have to redo everything. And then people have so many non-helpful tags, and from what I understand you can't cross-ref tags, like you can't say ok "pwp" tag, now give me only the pwp tags that're also "hp", to which I say: "run away!!!!!!!"

Because you have to be careful what you wish for.

Esplainy?

Benedict for me too!

My parents went to Russia recently and they said that the trains really are kinda nasty. So you've actually been to Irkutsk? That is awesome. I always get confused about where it is.

OTP: I have edited the question, but what I mean is sometimes I just *can't* watch B/A have hate!sex. Even though like A/S hate!sex can be quite entertaining.

HP: I think it would be stupid if Harry died. But the only person I'm *terrified* about dying is Neville. Which is funny, because I love Neville and everything, but he's not a character over which I am fannish or obsessed. But if he died a part of me would die. A PART OF ME. And yes, gypped is a derogatory play on "gypsy", or at least I did some research that said it was (don't remember where). I try not to use it since then, but I forget. Especially because it doesn't seem to be common knowledge and people don't talk about it all the time.

WIP: Has some Connor in it, but he is not a main character.

Because you fear failure.

I think this must be so.

I miss Oz!

Wait, unless I'm misunderstanding you, you *can* cross reference tags. For example, if you go to this:

http://del.icio.us/fitofpique/snape/harry

It gives you all 113 of Pique's Snape/Harry tags, but you also get a second grey box there on the right side with the cross referenced tags, so, say you only want to read the Snape/Harry fics that involve the apotionmadethemdoit, then you hit the "+" in front of that option and you get this page:

http://del.icio.us/fitofpique/snape/harry%2Bapotionmadethemdoit

And then say, you only want to read Snape/Harry fics where a potion makes them do it that's funny, so you hit the "+" sign right in front of "humor" , then you get this page

http://del.icio.us/fitofpique/snape/harry%2Bapotionmadethemdoit%2Bhumour

and so forth and so on. Yes?

No, no, no, no, no. If Neville dies I will have to cut my ARTERIES. *clutches Nightblooming Hearts-ease to her chest*

For the Wes thing, I was talking about how wanted...okay, so Wes wanted a lot of things. One of those was, basically, to be Angel. He loved Angel so much, in this idol/hero-worship kind of way. If you look at Guise Will be Guise, it has a lot of resonance later on in the series because Wes basically turns into Angel -- he becomes this dark, brooding, efficiently violent character. But the thing about Wesley is that it's never going to be about him -- the prophecies, the mission, the job -- and he knows that; he knows that no matter how much he wants to be Angel, he's never going to be that guy. The closest thing he's going to get to is to die for that guy -- and Wes has always wanted to make that great sacrifice for Angel, I think. To shed blood for Angel as part of a sign of his dedication, and later on, his penance. So, be careful what you wish for, because if you wish for death, you get it.

OMG thank you so much. I kept thinking that the box to the right SHOULD allow you to cross ref like that, but I wasn't pressing the plus sign; I was just pressing the tag. I had no idea they were different links. I'm *such* a ditz. Thanks.

I hadn't thought about Wesley's death in that way before. That's kinda awesome. Thanks for that, also.
