Posting up my ficathon fic! I believe this verse needs a name, but I am not sure what to call it yet, other than "super-fantasy sort of SilMil semi-AU."

Title: Gold and Steel
Rating: PG-13

( Gold and Steel )

I still feel like a moron for not getting this was yours. BAH!

Nathrach is perfect in every way!!! Even though he is clearly not a perfect person. XD I just love his drunken ass!

And all the interactions are wonderful, and the baking and the pendant and she was soaking wet when they first met and agjhakgjhihjsgriuhgnjdo akjghahjgjkakjn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DO YOU UNDERSTAND HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS? DO YOU!? DO YOU!!!!!!!!!!? BECAUSE I'M NOT SURE YOU DO! I LOVE THIS LIKE NATHRACH LOVES BOOZE AND BOOBIES!

I don't think she can understand HOW MUCH AWESOME THIS IS!!!

Brava for a wonderfully creative and original SilMil tale!!!!! Also, have to agree with Kate, meeting in the rain - yes yes yes!!!

So every part of this is wonderful obviously...

BUT LITTLE ICKLE ENDYMION ASKING FOR A SHIELD MIGHT BE THE GREATEST THING IN THE HISTORY OF GREAT THINGS!!!

i didn't leave a review for this on the forums, but don't think i'm leaving you out, spirit! this fic was one of my favorites, really - and now i shall proceed to squee as coherently as possible so you are left with no doubt as to how much i ADORED it :D i also left a review for your amazeballs secret santa over here (http://shitennou-ai.livejournal.com/313021.html#comments), just in case you missed it and thought i was an ungrateful brat :P ( ... )

Oh Apsara! I'm so happy that you enjoy this, and that is high praise coming from someone as brilliant at achieving a powerful moody setting like you. I'm also happy you liked receiving this verse in your Secret Santa. I tried so hard to write you Rei/Jadeite! Oh how I struggled! Do not get used to it, they may never be written by my hand again.

It was a question of right and wrong, and right and wrong did not know loyalty. The stars glittered in agreement.
And then you go and write sentences such as these and all I can do is sit in front of my computer and nod.

He stared at her in wide-eyed disbelief. “Are you... baking pie? In my forge?”
Ha, I didn't see that one coming, but neither did Nathrach. But then again, I didn't even expect Jupiter to make an appearance because you've thrown me off the trail by letting Mercury appear first.

I love how fairy talesque this reads. And how little Endymion finds his way to the blacksmith, willing to fight for his family, his life, his country, for revenge and for what's good.

*sighs*
Oh Spirit, you always write such beautiful things.
That being said, I don't think I would have recognised this one as yours in ficathon.
