But I want it now! It's noon where I am!
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Names are showing up on the stories now!

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I LOVED that Mirrormask fic. Loved it. Put it on my list of faves (which is still growing).
Mine are:
Ritual and Return (xxxHolic)
The End Is Where We Start From (Princess Tutu)
FYI, for those who aren't necessarily into anime, Princess Tutu is a fun series. About halfway through, I wondered if they'd brought Neil Gaiman in as a story consultant.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I wrote Brushes on Canvas (Ngaio Marsh -- Inspector Alleyn Mysteries) and Fairy Tale of L.A. (Life).
Naturally, the 200-word yuletide treat got more comments than the full-sized story, but given the difference in fandoms, I expected that. I'm very pleased with the response both stories got.

I wrote Breakaway (Whistle!) and Good Luck Pig (Nobuta wo Produce) for a pinch hit. I expect none of you to read them. Heh.

Nutty, seriously, if you hadn't written that story, I would have flipped out like a mammal. Which is to say that it was so very awesome that it would terrify me if there were another genius out there who wrote exactly what I wanted.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Heh. And here I thought you'd pegged me on the excessive use of commas. How could I not write it? It was the story I wanted to read, too.

I'm really pleased to see that I raved about a story (Bright Moon, Who Goes Farther Still, a Watership Down story) that turned out to be written by a friend of mine. She'd even told me months ago she was writing that fandom and I'd forgotten. Hah!
So many great stories this year.
