Palalife once again honoured me with art. This:

Absolutely stunning piece of work is for a scene in chapter 9. If you have a tumblr, please leave a note. I'm going to go cry some more.

I still remember that debacle. Good time.

Totally off topic, but that really long fic posted today"Still Life with Cookies" is like blowing my brain right now. Because I wanted to add another 17K story to your list of "to reads".

If it isn't already known, I'm really the devil.

I haven't had a chance to go read any of the secret_mutant fics today. We were pretty much out and about all day and are only now making dinner.

Not sure if I'll get to it tonight, as I'd like to get caught up on chapter 10.

From:

afrocurl

I only had them open because I was up at the unholy hour of 530 for work again. But it also meant I still have the other two longer fics waiting for me.

Writing is good. Reading can come later. I understand that. I'll be MIA most of tomorrow night, by the way. A friend and I are going to see "House of Lies" at some theatre. Or something.

There are so many fics being posted I almost feel burnt out. I'm kind of glad it ends this week--give me a chance to play catch up. I've missed tons.

And that's cool. I have no idea when this chapter will be ready.

From:

afrocurl

Just think what would have happened if the schedule had been 15 fics a day? I'd be going "ACK!" Then I'd feel like a drown rat or a caged shark. Neither good.

Now that I'm thinking about it, I'm sort of MIA half the weekend. The family has the holiday part on Twelfth Night (Friday) and Sunday it's off to someplace else.

I have my phone always, so I'll just end up being anti-social somewhere else if you email me.

The problem, of course, is that a lot of really good stories aren't getting any love. Like that Circus AU--that's fantastic. And I think 5 people have commented on it. It deserves way more love than that. There are a few I've read that I thought were really good and they have a handful of reviews. I'm not sure if it's burn out or people are just waiting for the reveals to go back, but yeah, I'm tempting to make a secret_mutant rec list, except I don't want to risk hurt feelings.

I will try to get at least a skeleton of the character to you tonight, but it'll be late and won't have any of the media ready.

From:

afrocurl

Yeah, that's really true. There are a few that I couldn't get through for various reasons, but I'm trying for all of them. (Is the Circus AU one of the longer ones? I have both of those still sitting for me to read.)

Then there's the Last Unicorn AU that made me cry.

If you make such a rec post, I will happily make my own. Or something.

Oh no, that's fine. More time for me to channel emotionally crippled Erik.

From:

nekosmuse

That's the 12000 word one. I may be biased, however, because I'm obsessed with the 1930s...

I haven't read the Last Unicorn one yet, because I was worried it would make me cry (the damned movie did) but I've book marked it for a day when I think I can handle it.

I really doubt I'll do a rec post, because, yeah, that can cause problems.

From:

afrocurl

History major here, so I'll be on that one next (it's sitting here waiting for me and I'm so uninterested in my work tomorrow right now.)

The Last Unicorn one is pretty sad, but it's beautiful at the same time. So, there's that.

There's a problem with rec posts, but I'm so impressed with what the comm has produced so far which is pretty amazing. I'm ready for someone to think me crazy for the one I wrote. I know someone will think me crazy.

From:

nekosmuse

I'd comment on the one you wrote, but then it would give you away. If they think you crazy, it'll be good crazy.

From:

afrocurl

You did comment on it, but now in a way that said who wrote it. Also why no one's handles was associated (yet) with beta work. I wasn't stupid enough to out myself via friendly associations.

Yes, it'll be a good crazy, I hope. I'm just waiting until I can get it on AO3 for more hilarious comments.
