For the first time in my life, I own a pair of sunglasses! That fit! That I can see out of! It was only $16 to get them with my new regular glasses (which give me a vision headache at the moment, but I'm sure that'll go away soon; they're really pretty, very thin-framed with small lenses that are a little bit cat's eye) and they have those plastic ( Read more... )

I kind of hate re-reading really good fic, because most of the fics I love enough to re-read multiple times draw me in so much I will hardly do anything else for as long as it takes to finish them again.

Mai/KueiKnife and Ink is my favourite get-together plot, haha. It goes something like this: After Mai becomes Fire Lord, there ( Read more... )

I just realized the reason I'm (very slowly) writing this Zuko-in-Ba-Sing-Se!fic is a) to fulfill my narrative kink of Destined Hero abandoning their destiny for a happy domestic-ish life, b) to write something about the Dai Li, and c) to get Zuko/Li* to go to university.

And I am so happy about this that I'm going to share some of it with you! In all of its terrible first-draft-of-a-first-draft glory. :D

( After reading Embers I've kind of fallen in love with the Dai Li. DICTATORIAL SECRET POLICE, COME HANG OUT WITH EVERYBODY )
