Bells ringing out
Happy Christmas, any of you who celebrate. Or Happy Boxing Day by this point. I have the Glee soundtrack! And Final Draft. So now I really do have no excuse not to write. (Also: Michael Chabon - The Final Solution; DWJ - The Magicians of Caprona; and The Middleman Complete Series. Which I have not seen, but am super excited about. Plus a scarf with pockets, and fingerless gloves. Squee!)
I have barely touched the Yuletide fics so far, given that AO3 still hates me. Probably in a non-specific way, but one can never know. Anyway it's moving too slowly for me to browse right now. But my two recipients who have seen their stories so far have liked them, and I've had a few other comments, so I'm not freaking out. I'll try again tomorrow.
I have, thankfully, read my own fic: Proper Management - Terry Pratchett's Discworld (Ponder Stibbons and Mustrum Ridcully). Post-Hogfather fic, with Ponder contemplating the faculty in general and the Archchancellor in particular :) I love Ponder, and this really gets the flow of his thought processes - an orderly inquisitive mind surrounded by some that really aren't like that at all... And the Archchancellor, who is always smarter than he's letting on. I love how this shows the difference in the way the two of them reason things out, and what they represent as part of UU.
If AO3 recovers from us all hitting it at once, you are welcome to try and guess what I wrote this year, with a ficlet for winners. (Jay probably shouldn't guess the one zie knows though!)
- two full-lengths and one short
- two TV related and one film
- one het, one slash, one gen
- some tags used across them: future fic, siblings, established relationship. Not all at once.
It has been a loooong day (small brother still likes the really early morning thing) and relatives are lovely but not conducive to relaxing. So I'm going to bed, but I'll try and be more communicative tomorrow. If I could stop being pre-emptively depressed about the fact I have to go back to Oxford on Sunday, that'd be nice too.
