Is there any decent Connor-Lindsey fic out there? Preferably with a plot.
If you find any, for God's sake do tell me. Really.
Meanwhile: Fearless Diva's finished Seeing the Light aifg. (Harry/Draco. PG. Set a little while after
Tissue of Silver.)
In which Harry and Draco (who are not out as a couple) attend Hermione's engagement party.
...It seemed like every minor celebrity and self-important politician had managed to wrangle an invitation, not surprising given Hermione's status as a War Hero and her relation to the Minster's Family. This was one of the big social events of the season. Hermione herself was standing at the end of the hall near the dais, giving instructions to the musicians. She finished talking to them, turned and saw Harry standing in the doorway with his Slytherin entourage. She smiled at him and waved but her eyebrows quirked up in surprise and she gave him a questioning look.
Draco leaned over and whispered in his ear. "I thought you said you told her about us."
Oh, shit. "I said I was going to, but I wanted to tell her in person, and we've both been really busy so . . ." Harry's heart found a nice place to settle just below his stomach.
"So you didn't tell her." His tone set a new standard for icy. "Of course you didn't tell her. Excuse me." He pushed by Harry and set off at a determined pace for the bar.
Harry glanced over at Snape, who was looking as though he was trying to decide the best method for evisceration and just couldn't quite make up his mind. "Mr. Potter. I am constantly amazed by your ability to function with your head so far up your arse. Do you think you might opt for a surgical removal at some point?"

I haven't seen any, and I'm pretty sure that particular pairing would have caught my attention in a big way.
Someone will just have to write me some.
Huh. Just got some feedback on how I could fix the LFN story I just posted.
I mean, it's better than a mindless LoC, I guess...
LoC
Eh? What? I feel very stupid, but I can't figure what this stands for.
I keep meaning to send you feedback on that, I haven't seen LFN since...well I'm not sure when, never seen the end but I really loved your story. Now I wish I had kept up with the show.
LoC is letter of comment.
ita, as you might have guessed, there's a substantial amount of "Nikita would NEVER do that" comments, which have all been very polite and usually praise the writing. This e-mail suggested that I could go back and drop in hints about something being wrong with Nikita.
But see, I didn't want to do that. If I'd wanted to, I could have, but that wasn't the point.
Edit: Thanks, Allison. :-)
that wasn't the point.
How would you know? You only wrote the damned thing!
You will notice I had nothing useful to say about it except "Yay!" for which I both do and do not apologise.
I thought--and you realize I'm speaking from your story and not from having ever watched the show--that the point was [story spoiler]
there *wasn't* anything wrong with Nikita. Or at least, this was base-level Nikita, who'd rebelled against Section enough to try to humanize it and get rid of some of its more obviously awful practices, but who'd internalized its dictates enough that doing anything to make Section work right--including killing children--seemed an acceptable sacrifice for the greater good.

Oh, my god, I'm totally hiring Micole to follow me around and explain my stuff.
