Yuletide reveal! Yaaaaay!

Okay. First thing's first.

MANY. MANY. MAAAAAAANY thanks to [livejournal.com profile] amatara for the fabulous Bearing Witness which OMG YOU SHOULD HAVE READ ALREADY WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU IF YOU HAVEN'T.

Um. Yes, anyway. Yes! Thank you! You wrote a brilliant fic, thank you thank you thank you.



Now... for the two I wrote.

First for my original assignment: For [livejournal.com profile] andraste, I wrote A Letter, Delivered by a Raven, to a Small Cottage in the Elven Village of Ivyleaf, Home of an Apprentice Baker. Probably the longest title I've ever used for a fanfic ever. XD It's Order of the Stick fic! Which... well, if you're not familiar with that particular webcomic, go and avail yourself of it, because it's awesome. If you are, it's a letter written by V. Which... led to some interesting moments when I was like... must be more unnecessarily wordy! Chop chop! :) It was very fun to write and the prompt was kind of great.

Second, for the pinch hit I managed to nab and... well, I got a rather enthusiastic reaction.

For [personal profile] melannen, one of the seven fics she got for the same prompt, aaaah!, Packet Switching. Anthropomorfic. Fandom/LJ, Fandom/DW. Awesome prompt, spawned lots of awesome fic, and I have to say I'm actually kind of ridiculously fond of mine, so... yay! :D


That was so fun. Is it next yuletide yet? :b

Okay, so now I'm burning with curiosity in which way the longer story is "so definitely" by me, but the shorter one was harder to guess. :) It couldn't have been the amount of smut, I'm guessing, because I didn't use a single explicit word (well, apart from "come" if you consider that as such *g*) in the whole story...

Besides the plot's tenderness and affection for all three characters, it was the author's note, which was charming and modest and just sounded greatly like you. :)

And it's not that the sex scene wasn't very in-character for you and wonderful, it was just that I hadn't read one by you yet so I used that as a convenient (and incorrect) shorthand to rule you out. :)

You can give my Yuletide story a shot, but all things considered (especially that it's pretty long and would be a decent time investment) I'm not sure it would work for you. I was sorry I didn't get some Londo/G'Kar myself! :) I had fun with the prompt but I would have liked to branch out of comics fandom a bit for Yuletide, lol.
