Yeah, it still feels kind of...rushed or stilted to me. I kept fiddling around with the second half of the fic, writing and rewriting it, and I just couldn't get it to do what I wanted. Sigh. Oh well.

Oh? I don't remember the bandage thing in Burial. It's been a while since I reread it, though, so maybe I need to give in another look.

Thanks very much for your comments!
