I've seen a couple of you posting ways to reflect on the year that looked fun, and I'm going to steal them for this post!

Firstly, doreyg posted this entry about favourite characters from the year, both new discoveries and returning champions ( Read more... )

Watching this Omori fan animation (NB: Omori route spoilers and Omori-typical unsettling imagery), set to a remix of 'Bad Apple!!' from the Touhou Project series, really leaves me in awe of the passion and creativity of fandom ( Read more... )

A new prompt post has just opened up on the Three-Sentence Ficathon, so here's another roundup of my fills! I'm pleasantly surprised to have written so much for the event this year.
