I really enjoyed this. The "how did Edward become Edward" question is so seldom addressed, and this was a very nice ficlette. Having both sides give their POVs made it even more tragic.

I'm glad that you enjoyed it. Honestly, I'd expected more people to try and write something about how Edward went from a normal-ish guy (he had to have been once upon a time) to Death. It sounds like the perfect thing for people to write lots of theories about.
It was supposed to be painful for both Joyce and Edward, so I'm glad that worked out.

No, not allowed to end. *pushes back towards keyboard* Write more. See, that was a good beginning, a prologue, yep, that's what it was, so write the rest. Pwease!

Wow! This was one kick-a** story. Since this cross is obviously AU, how about letting Edward come back to Joyce after she divorces the a**hole. I think Death would be a perfect stepfather for the Slayer. Insert evil snicker here.
