Rochelle

 

I have been trying for years--YEARS--to get a Rochelle Zimmerman (The Craft, 1996) fic up and running on this blog. Rachel True has been my idol since I was a teenaged Goth kid back in the 1990s, and all these years later, I still absolutely fucking adore her.

Problem was, in addition to my vicious bouts of writer's block, I just couldn't decide on a story for my girl...until I saw Girl from Nowhere on Netflix (which, if you're not watching, I don't know what you're doing with your life) and got back into my own Daos universe. It finally occurred to me: what if, after the events of The Craft, Rochelle found herself in Sunnydale?

Seeing as I'm also still a huge Buffyverse fan, and both the movie and the Buffy the Vampire Slayer show premiered within a year of each other (and since I'm deeply nostalgic for my old Nineties Goth days), I figured...why not?
