Sadly, almost none of the actual story links seem to work (I get a Not In Archive message). I guess we'll have to wait for her to post at AO3.

hanarobi March 6 2010, 03:05:05 UTC

Thanks for the info. I'll see if I can track her down and get permission to link to the story or to repost it in its entirety.

\0/ Yay, your first post. Don't you feel accomplished? I look forward to a great month of recs.

hanarobi March 6 2010, 03:05:33 UTC

Actually, I just feel stupid. I had no idea what I did was wrong.

magician114 March 6 2010, 04:01:33 UTC

Sadness, sweetie. I didn't know it was wrong either. It looks as if she's actively posting stories at AO3 (last date was March 2) so it's entirely likely that it will show up there. Especially with a little feedback. ^_^

I was really excited to read a story by an author I'd never heard of. Thanks for sharing and don't get discouraged.

hanarobi March 6 2010, 05:37:39 UTC

I've sent her an e-mail. Hopefully I will hear from her soon.

Thanks for the support!

Hi, this has never really come up before on the comm, but I have to say I am not comfortable with us re-archiving in its entirety a fic that an author has removed from the internet. Please remove this post as soon as possible, or a mod will delete.

You may wish to try to contact the author via her profile on the Archive of Our Own site, to see if she would be willing to re-upload for you there or elsewhere. Thanks and good luck.

hanarobi March 6 2010, 03:05:49 UTC

Done. My apologies.

I'm very glad I got to read this before it gets taken down! It's a great short story that deserves to be posted somewhere and not permanently lost.

hanarobi March 6 2010, 03:06:13 UTC

I love this story so much that I will see if I can find a way to make it available again.

audaudhare March 6 2010, 18:18:45 UTC

I'm sad I missed it but will keep checking back to see if you got permission to post it or permission to post an actual active link to the story.

hanarobi March 6 2010, 20:08:11 UTC

Come back! I got permission and the proper link!

Super hooray! And look what you did -- with your love of this story you affected the fandom. Since TS isn't her main fandom it probably would have been a while before she posted it -- perhaps not ever! So good for you. And I'm sure you made her day with your feedback.

It's a funny story and a bit different from the usual treatment. Our Blair selfish? Is it possible? Mais oui! Thanks for the rec -- I would never have heard of the author otherwise.

hanarobi March 9 2010, 02:08:06 UTC

You are so very kind. Thank you.
