Well, let's see...

[firstlight]

livelongnmarry has been being mentioned a lot on my flist lately! (The profile info explains better than I can if you somehow haven't heard of it yet.) A few people on my friendslist are doing things, although I'm already completely losing track... most recently I know crystalusagi is offering web design and hosting and yuki_scorpio is offering Rikkai plushes of unreasonable cuteness. I own a Niou and he's awesome.

Crystal is also trying to make me take part, which I am absolutely not averse to in principle (and I'm thinking about things I could do), but her ideas are insane. I'm just saying. Sane ideas on the back of a postcard to, well... here, I guess. (I'm sort of ruling out offering fanfiction even though that's basically The Thing that I do for fandom because honestly, me writing on demand? Sometimes it works out fine. Sometimes.)

Yesterday, we went to the Blue John Cavern near Castleton. Our tour-guide was one of those characters who you possibly couldn't make up; they pop up in fiction sometimes, of course, but I maintain they're all based on real people. Possibly all on the same real person. He just gets around a bit. He wears suspicious sweaters and is prone to making completely politically incorrect comments in an extremely goodnatured manner. There is often an air of flatcap about him, even if he isn't actually wearing one.

Anyway, I really enjoyed going around the mine; if you're not averse to deep dark places and quite a lot of steps, I recommend it. Wear shoes with a good grip. *g*

My current fic project is actually going pretty well now, although standard doubts and angst apply. Last push this weekend.

Also on the subject of fic etc., rikkai_exchange is pretty far through now and there's loads of stuff to read/stare at! Just saying. :)

Off to pack now. Back to London in a few hours. (I think I just traumatised one of the Daves by being Very Awake at him despite not having had any tea yet.)

=D My claims are very good claims, yes.

I has fic angst too. Trying to tie the ending better with the fic title... Wonder if it'll just go straight over people's heads anyway. >>

I'm actually weirded out by the fact that my story has a title. O_O THE END IS NIGH.

Hm! Oh well, if the world really must end (although I think it is terribly pedestrian of it), I suppose it is good that it will end on a beautiful, sunny day.

I was wondering if you were fine lately, but now I get you aren't in London. ::facepalms::

I'm glad you're walking around, sound likes an interesting place!

And see? the fic is going to be OK! :D

Yes, lots of things to look at Rikkai_exchange!

Ooh, went there on a family holiday once and enjoyed it! I like how Blue John got its name.
