WHY WOULD YOU GOOGLE IT AT WORK! :o
Because I didn't know what it was.

Wasn't actually on a work computer or anything but I absolutely did not keep a straight face.
...for space is wide, and good friends are too few.

Not really the focus on the conversation here.
Sorry, I've been waiting to say that for years.

And I think it was fine in color because it showed some truly fantastic sets and costuming. The vampire ladies alone deserved to be seen in all their glory. So did Kate Beckinsale's red top and leather pants.
... Ever read Sunstone?
Can't say I'm familiar.
Check it out if you can though be warned it's NSFW. It's a BDSM story by Stjepan Šejić (thank God this is all written because I doubt I could pronounce EITHER name) whom you may know from his Graphic Novel Harleen (a retelling of Mad Love aka Harley Quinn's backstory) and Witchblade. It's a rom-com that's about the ups and downs of coming out, falling in love with a friend with benefits and it's just so, nice.

Long story short if you ever wanted to know what 50 Shades of Grey was like if it was, you know, Good this is the series for you. The characters are likeable, the plot is fun and it has lesbians in red tops and leather pants.

No problem, you can read it for free on pixiv along with a lot of Šejić's other original comics like The Queen and the Woodborn, Achilles Shieldmaidens, Fine Print and Death Vigil. However, you'll need to sign up on that site due to said stories mature content but it will be worth it.
