My yuletide assignment did not make me cry, which is about all one can ask for, I expect.
Angel: Is that what you think you are--a hero? Spike: Saved the world didn't I? Angel: Once. Talk to me after you've done it a couple more times.

My yuletide assignment did not make me cry
Heh. Neither did mine, although I will admit to reading the e-mail from the hallway, because the way I signed up in a few fandoms could have landed me with some very complicated group sex... or did it?

This is beautiful because it's so surreal:
Madeline was saying as she walked with Nikita into an enormous vault that housed antiques, valuables and of course the most dazzling of jewels, “… So I wondered why not conduct an ‘Antique Road Show’, they used to be very popular before Armageddon.”

Without context, it's totally marzipan in your pie plate, bingo!
With context, I fear it will probably be rotten mincemeat in the brainpan, oy no!

an ‘Antique Road Show’
I'm fairly convinced it should be an antiques road show, but I don't want to go and look it up just in case it turns out that I'm right, because then I'd know that and I'd be scaring myself. re-reads sentance Now is not the time to start the complicated essay, is it? My sense-making appears to have stayed in bed.

I so enjoy these snippets of The TFN-fic From Hell that you bring us. Although most of the time I'm reduced to lurkage these days, but - gosh. It's priceless.

I got my yuletide job as well. There's nothing particularly strange about it, but... suddenly I have no idea how to do it. Why did I sign up for this again?
And it's het. Don't get me wrong, I volunteered for it. Still, I haven't written anything with girls in it since... um... X-Men?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I'm prepping a recommendation for Crack Van, and I was wondering if the following would sail over the heads of too many people in the group:
(title) is one of the darkest, most painful CSI fics I have ever read. How dark? How painful? Well, imagine for a moment that Jerry Bruckheimer decided one day to turn over creative control of the show. To Tim Minear. That about sums it up.
Thoughts? Should I leave it as-is or rephrase?
