How's that working out for you?

Just now, in the kitchen:

Aidan: How's your gay thing going? [He likes to refer to the slash paper, which I bravely told him about, as "your gay thing." Boys. *g*]
Me: I finished it and turned it in!
Aidan's tarty, too-much-eyeshadow friend: Oh, you're American. How's that working out for you?
Aidan: *laughs* You mean, as opposed to all the other nationalities she's tried?
My brain: Yes, dump her slutty ass! You and I can get a heterosexual thing going!
Me: Fine.

I'm actually not sure if she's really his girlfriend, but I've decided I don't care. I'm going to keep flirting with him whenever our paths cross, even if some of those times are like last night, when I went to make tea after I got back from Boyne Valley and treated him to the very special experience of wind-swept hair and boots that smelled like sheep poo. (Dude, for all the times I was told that Tara is a Highly Sacred Place, they sure let a lot of livestock crap on it.) He's still talking to me, though, so that's a plus.

Another plus: some wonderful, generous, anonymous soul bought me a year of paid time and extra userpics! Thank you so much, mystery person! (You got me through my undermistletoe panic today. Really.)

Also, slodwick made me another gorgeous cover, this time for We Have Lingered. [Reminder: spoilers for 'Grace Under Pressure.'] Looky!



I still can't look at that without getting chills. Wow.

(She also drew, like, a billion adorable sketches. Including this one, for me.)

Y'know, I was gonna say some other stuff--and it was all really deep, too--but actually, I'm sleeeeeeepy now, so yeah, that'll have to be your full dose of me for today. I'm sure you'll live. ;-)

The cover is better than the story. I'm kinda ashamed.

...Actually, no. Just gleeful. GLEE!

Pshah, the story was great too, you know this :) But the cover, yeah, that's a gorgeous piece of work. And impresses me more directly, I suppose, because I sometimes try and play with graphics myself, whereas fic is totally beyond me.
