So if I say it's "x and y" and it's the only x and y story out there, which BTW is entirely possible, everyone's gonna know it's me. And then it spoils the surprise.

It makes the sense.

Basingstoke did a Brimstone/SV crossover, IIRC: "So it's true, Lex thought, my father really *is* the Devil."

Hell yes. Bas kicks ass.

You know what would make just a kickass crossover? Brimstone and Smallville. Lex in his hedonistic days, shooting up or fucking around, and who does he run into? The devil. Who looks just like his dad.

Bas and Te had a whole thing.

cereal:

Deb, I am wholly in your lovely hands. I'm so gleeful, now, that you're going to do this. Whee!

(Proving that if you whine enough about something, good shit will happen! ... What?)

Proving that if you whine enough about something, good shit will happen!

We're in trouble now, aren't we?

I promise not to apply that revelation to any more areas of my life.

Plei, You may know this already, but I was just at Teland, looking at her new recs. Guess what's there.

(Does the silly snoopy dance of Someone Liked It! Someone Liked It!)

well, duh.

Every time I write, I'm convinced that my judgement has slipped and I've sent out something that's basically warmed-over awfulness on toast.

It's hard to get away from that isn't it? My boss told me I'd done a good job on something the other day, and my first thought was "really?".
