Yet Another Yuletide Reveal
Good morning!

I wrote Exception to the Rule for Yuletide this year, for the anime "Darker Than Black." It's a gen actiony thing with some romantic bits involved, and a giant dirt monster just because. I had a lot of fun with it, and my recipient seems to be happy.

However, since I went down to the wire this year and had no time to do a proper edit, let alone get a beta, I'll be posting a cleaned up version of the story to this journal and FF.Net in the near future to assuage my own nit-pickiness.

And I will NEVER, ever, ever again set a story in a specific place that I have never been to, because now I have to go to Shinjuku myself to figure out the damn layout of the municipal park to see if my chase sequence is even remotely plausible. And after a fruitless search for readable maps in English, I'm still not sure where the hell the shrine is supposed to be. I *know* it's in there. There are pictures!

But all in all, I had a great time this year.

And another yay! to my Yuletide Santa, Ames, for the story I got and continue to rec with gusto, Be Careful The Tale You Tell, about the further adventures of Mouse from Ladyhawke.

I've got more recs getting saved up for another post. That archive is really massive. I'm still somewhere in the N's.

And Happy New Year everybody!
