01. Many kisses have been exchanged here (nearly 5000 words of them, no less) - thanks to everyone for playing!

02. In what seems to be a bus-like phenomenon, I suddenly have a collection of fic nomination emails. Fandom awards and such have always been a bit of a mystery to me, but The Rumour Mill's been nominated at the Forbidden Awards and the Quibbler Awards, while In An Interstellar Burst and the Jack/Gwen fiveways have been dropped into the current pool of Children of Time stories. If my nominators are out there, thanks! It's terribly nice to be thought of, though like I say, I'm a bit bewildered by these things.

03. There may be something appearing here shortly, but otherwise I must take my leave for a couple of weeks whilst I wrangle with some very nuisance-like examinations.

04. A few recs to end:

and there is pansies, that's for thoughts by ignipes, the most adorable Merlin story there ever was.

The Worst-Case Scenario Handbook: Harry Potter by rowen_r, which is hilarious and dead-on.

The Hard Prayer by rheanna27, a long and exceptionally gripping SGA AU that I would happily recommend to any post-apocalypse fans, whether you've seen the original canon or not, rheanna27 does such a great job of characterisation and world-building. It's 30,000 words and I could not stop reading the damn thing, much to the detriment of my evening yesterday!

Good luck on those "very nuisance-like but clearly trying to teach you something in their infinite wisdom" exams

Thank you for the rec! (A really surprising and nice thing about Hard Prayer has been the number of people dropping by from other fandoms -- apparently post-apoc is practically a fandom in its own right. Who knew?)

It so is! There's a multifandom apocaficathon, if I remember correctly - I don't think a fandom's earned its wings unless it's got at least one epic where most of the planet dies, heh.
