He'd loved Dru's hair. Soft, silky, smelling of blood and cinnamon--elaborately coiffed for a party or spread out on a pillow as he made love to her, her dark brown tresses were her signature, running his fingers through them his chief delight.

And Buffy...the honey locks of the Slayer held the fragrance of vamp dust and vanilla. The style changed over time, but not the scent. Even now, a whiff of vanilla candles took him back to the dances they shared.

Now Illyria. She smelled indescribable, like nothing he'd ever known. And that was most intoxicating of all.

Don't be ashamed of Aladdin. It comes from a better time - a time when Disney's animated movies didn't suck. And had good songs.

I like the drabble. Very neat having Buffy smell like vamp dust - althought the vanilla thing is sort of a cliche. Anyway, I wish I could drabble - my drabble well dried up. All the fanfic ideas I have now concern huge epic stories that I have no time to write (even though I'm attempting to with A Mirror of Being).

At least your ideas are going places. I'm still working on a Christmas fic.

In between playing MahJong. *headdesk* Where are my priorities?

You know, I once saw what I thought was a dust ball and a piece of string on the floor and picked it up and it turned out to be a DEAD MOUSE! My cats had killed it and helpfully brought it into the house. Fortunately, it was dead, so it did no tickling of any kind.

LOL I have a real dislike of most rodents. When I volunteered at the zoo, the only animal that ever bit me and drew blood was the cute adorable fuzzy chinchilla. From that moment, I decided that rodents are snake food.

Or coats. *evil grin*

I finally wrote a drabble! The draught hath ended! The plot bunnies hath been freed!

Oh and the freakiest rodent I've ever seen has got to be the ratmonkey in Deadalive (also known as Braindead, directed by Peter Jackson of LotR fame). It's also one of the goriest films ever made and contains one of the best lines ever: "I kick ass for the Lord!"
