Sometimes it's more difficult to NOT write something.
Oh, is it ever! I spent *weeks* fiddling with this story in the attempt of finding the thin line between total obscurity and the wooden hammer. And I know I could have done it better still... but I do hope it worked for you the second time around, undistracted by the death of the Metallicar. ;-)
A very beautiful story, and very much like Sam I'd say. :)
Thank you - I'm very glad you like it! :-)
Just one question: "Wiederschmätzer"? What's that supposed to be/mean?
You've hit the nail right on the head with your translation. A Wiederschmätzer is a precursor to the "modern" vampire - almost entirely unknown these days. It's an undead ex-human that chews on its shroud loudly in its grave, and does a few other creepy things. So, basically something that's come back again and is noisily smacking/eating. *g*
