I read that line as a commentary on Anna's opinion of what happens to people she cares about. Like, "everything she touches is destroyed". Alternatively, it might be the blessing would call down the angels and they would hurt Ellen. Or something.
I like your readings VERY MUCH! Suddenly Anna-in-the-story is a LOT more interesting to me.
"Turtle Eclipse of the Heart," which is goofy in a way that makes me smile, from the title on down. I enjoy the dialogue and narrative voice - pretty much equally goofy! It's Kowalski/Vecchio, PG-rated, which suits me fine. Mainly I like how the story reminds me of how much I've enjoyed all the characters involved and how ridiculous but likeable they can all be. (I know the biggest pairing in dS fandom is Fraser/Kowalski, which is plenty slashy, but even though I like Kowalski a lot I didn't like Fraser as much in S3-S4 due to overall changes in the show's tone and characterizations, so I could never really get behind that 'ship. If I had to pick one dS pairing, it would probably be Fraser/Vecchio, but mostly I just kind of wish there were more gen in the fandom!)
