Wow, I got 1st? Whoa, you don't know how long I've been hoping to place like that. This was so fun again and some pretty banners to decorate my fic journal with, yay! I love your banners Thursday!

I wrote 'She Gets What She Wants' (one of my favorite mini fics ever to write), Completion (lol, just a crazy apocalyptic story), and 'Virgin to Love' (angst! I've always wanted an angst award, but I was surprised this got such a nice reception!)

And on that note, thank you for the feedback for 'Virgin to Love', such lovely comments and I'm just glad my phrasing worked.

Thursday, thank for the comments for 'Taken Away'. I wrote that, but it's funny what you said because it actually is longer. It's just not complete. I started writing it during the jurassic park short or long? challenge. I started right after you posted that link to the song 'letters in the sky', so you inspired it. I just pictured this really angsty story where Arthur was part of a very powerful dangerous family and he meets Guinevere and falls in love. So some day hopefully it will get completed, but for now, it's longer, but incomplete.

Thanks, this was so fun again! Congrats everyone, so many lovely entries that I want to give FB for because I was late again! I just have to run off to work at this moment. For now though, loved 'Come with Me'!!

Virgin to Love was phenomenal! I would love to see that actually be acted about by Bradley and Angel! (I'll own up to the feedback posted above for it.) Everything I said, I'd repeat right here. You deserve that Best Angst. I was everything I was trying to write in mine and more!

Congratulations!

Oh thanks so much for your detailed comments! I just am so grateful for lovely feedback like that.

Which others did you write? I'm very curious!

You're very, very welcome! :)

Though broken and bruised, I rise
Light in your eyes (This was actually an idea that I'm trying to write in a longer fic, and just consolidated and changed a bit...it didn't turn out quite like I wanted it too.)
A sign you missed me

I wasn't completely happy with all of my entries this time, but that's okay, they were an outlet for me when I needed it.

Thanks for the feedback, I was a little pouty that we had none. So you cheered me right up.

I know how much writers like feedback, so I try to give it. As a writer, feedback is like candy...you can't get enough. LOL.

Glad I could cheer you up! :D

Your first first \o/ mustbethursday3 November 16 2011, 04:32:03 UTC
Lol you are drowning in banners by now. I pity you not...because I remember when you wrote upwards of 9 ficlets in MC1. So it's your own fault.

I think you were one of the first people to write MC Smut. And at the time, way back in god was it March? I was shocked and awed. I never expected anyone to be able to do anything as fantastic in 3 sentences as we got. I never expected anyone to tackle drabble smut.

So, thank you Mara for being a MC smut pioneer. It's become my fav category.

I started writing it during the jurassic park short or long? challenge. I started right after you posted that link to the song 'letters in the sky', so you inspired it.

That was a Long Challenge (I had to think about it), I've never Modded an SC. HEE JURASSIC. And awh I'm glad the song helped, it's one of my favs :)

I just pictured this really angsty story where Arthur was part of a very powerful dangerous family and he meets Guinevere and falls in love. So some day hopefully it will get completed, but for now, it's longer, but incomplete.

It's cool. Maybe it'll be finished by the end of next year? After the S4/S5 finale has your brain bubbling over?

For now though, loved 'Come with Me'!!

OH SO DID I. I JUST. GAH...why wasn't it longer. RULES? WHAT...OH. ME AND MY WORD LIMITS x_x ruining things. That's another one I need into a full blown fic.

LOL, I wrote nine for this one, but we'll just forget some of them, hah! I think the first one I wrote more than nine, so crazy!! But I never will complain about getting pretty banners. :)

First to write smut? I don't think so. The first challenge, other people wrote it I think. Lol, I used to hate that word, 'smut' with a passion and now I actually have banners for it, go figure, smut isn't so bad!

I love that song now and I'll try to finish that fic one day. I was even going to fit Jurassic Park into it, lol.

OH, Come with Me, I wrote all my comments for it below! That story is amazing and I would so want more!

And SEE? I was days late to this MC, didn't even realize it was going on until it was almost over. And I see that we had a less than 100 word limit. And I was like >100???? Why not 105 or 110 or 118 or 125...etc...lol. It was torture at first and then...oh I can do this.

You guys are great inspiration for short tiny baby fic!

Ooh, Virgin to Love! That was a great piece. Those last two lines really hit me.

Congrats!!

Thanks Jen!

You wrote 'Tricks of the Trade' too. Another smart (and sexy*) piece I loved!

♥ Thank you! I'm not really the type to write the "sexy" pieces (angst and fluffy humor is usually my go-to ;-)), so that means a lot.
