Yeah, this is gonna work!

That experiment with posting fic only in my Insane Journal and my Greatest Journal but not here went pretty well, I think. Maybe not as many comments as I would have got here, but that's OK, it was just a WIP bit anyhow. (Excerpt from a plotty Snape/Hermione episode).

Also, I'm going a little nuts on that 2000-icon business. That's just decadent.

I'll have something there for the GO folks in a couple days, I hope.

Meanwhile, I had a great time working at the big gay street festival yesterday despite the heat. There was an amazing African band; it's quite the thing here to sell sangria at booths (holds up in the heat way better than beer) and I'm now the proud owner of a really big glossy red erection candle that was so much way cheaper than I'd thought it would be I shudder to think I might not have even asked were it not for the sangria.

Well, I don't usually read WIPs, so... that would be why I didn't comment. *g* Not because I have a problem with the concept.

You will be posting this GO fic(let?) there only? *tear*

Oh, that's fine - I don't usually post them. :)

Yeah, but not locked. Anyone can read it, of course. (Probably gonna be a bit from a longer WIP anyhow.)

It really is. And I obviously can't handle that kind of freedom.

Oh, good. I would be greatly saddened if I was denied your awesome writing.

*blush*

No, that won't happen. :)

It's like dropping an alcoholic in a vat of Everclear.

At least we're not alone. I'm sure half the fandom is franticly making icons out of a desperate need to fill all those empty slots.

I went to Greatest Journal, but didn't have time to read, so didn't comment. Does that count? 8P

I've been thinking of getting you one of those candles ever since that fic, and wouldn't have thought of getting it a nice natural red shade, so yay, and now I don't have to! %D

Huzzah for sangria which is similar to, but not quite exactly what I'm currently drinking. 8]

That's perfectly all right, dear. Also, that snippet makes no sense unless you've read the rest of the series, too - I know there are readers here who have and have been wishing I'd take it up again, so it's for them really.

The candle is no shade of red that occurs in nature. XD It also doesn't have wings. But is otherwise perfect. It occupies a place of honor in my living room.
