...I'm sure it comes as no surprise that this was one of my prompts. (I WAS SO SUBTLE, PLEADING FOR SOMEONE TO TAKE IT.) What you've done with it is gorgeous. Doing POV for a Gaiman character always feels intimidating to me, but you handle it with so much style -- not shying away from any of the carnage, but not lingering on it either, and catching the lyricism and the recurrence of themes that make his work so potent.
And ajsdghjkl, the way they meet -- the fact that they both know each other, even before, that they've heard of each other already -- the fact that they're so well-matched in their monstrosity -- Vino's beautiful, certain immortality --
Everything I could have hoped for and more. You are fabulous. ♥
