canon is Robin McKinley's Sunshine

[vampparasol]

Let me get this straight: you've had this journal thing for how long? Then you reread the book (and don't get me wrong, as many times as I've reread The Forbidden Chalice, I'm not throwing stones from glass houses here), decide to find a "PB" for me and... what?

What's your long-term plan, here? Pull me out of New Arcadia, out of Charlie's, out of my bakery, to send me somewhere else? Because baking cinnamon rolls and Bitter Chocolate Death is such a sought-after skill. I got tired of my life once already, and we both know how that turned out.

[Sunshine's in full on bitch mode now.]

At least think before sending me someplace without sunlight. Carthaginian hell, I'd be worse than useless. I'd give it a week before I was sick.

And I'm not interested in "meeting vampires from other worlds", okay? The ones in my world are bad enough, and Con is... Con. Let's not get ahead of ourselves, is all I'm saying.

Sounds like a pretty cushy world you got, there.

[Taking a quiet breath, he tries not to think of what he's lost in that 'cushy' world.] Unless you're the ones fighting the demons.

We made the world the way it was. We asked for help and we were given it. It was centuries ago but it can happen again. It might be possible in your reality.

[Vague snort.] Whatever you're talking about, it's not happening. Where I come from? There's no higher power. There's no one to ask for help but ourselves.
