Love it, Cindy. It's really nice and tight.

Now, what were your LJ questions?

Questions:

• Given that it centers around a casting spoiler, what's the LJ etiquette for spoilers?

• Is there an HTML code I should use?

• How should I mark it.

• Is the marking I have above about the casting spoiler, too spoilery, in and of itself.

How is it?

Oh, thank you amych. With 200 words, it has to stay tight. I think that's a good exercise for verbose-me.

Also, what's drabble?

Plei, you evil, wonderful person.

Nice! Good ficcage, there, Cindy.

It's safe to assume that Faith is going to Sunnydale, especially if you're vague enough to not mention any specifics, so it's less spoilery with a warning.

If you are posting it in your LJ, use this tag t lj-cut text="Title of Fic, Spoilers through AtS 4x15, Orpheus"

and then paste the fic below the cut tag.

There are no cut tags in comments, so when I posted it in Twi's LJ, I just used the subject line for my title and pasted the story into the comments box.

Isn't LJ spoiler font the same as here? Or you could use an lj cut.

That was really nice.

Also, what's drabble?

A drabble is a very short fic, normally (if a challenge) with a specific word count.

LJ has what they call a "cut tag" -- what you see on the main page looks like

blah blah blah ( read more ) blah.

The bold part is a link to the full version of the post on the comments page. It's customary to replace the "read more" part with a one-line header/spoiler warning; something like "PG, S7 casting spoilers" should do the trick.

The code for it is t lj-cut text="whatever you want to say" and t /lj-cut at the end of what you want to offset.

As for whether what you've posted here is too spoilery, I'm as spoiled as last week's chicken parts, so my spoilometer is out of whack. It doesn't look that way to me, though.

With 200 words, it has to stay tight. I think that's a good exercise for verbose-me.

I love the short-shorts. Of course, I seem to have gone from 200-word fics to 100-word ones, thanks to the Wednesday and Sunday 100s. One of these days, I'm going to end up doing one-word fic.
