Finally the reveals are up! I was flailing about all morning waiting for them. Also, I bowed out last night due to a head cold, so uh. Apologies for the spamming of your flist to ensue.

Title: The Gift of Gloves
Fandom: Oofuri
Rating: PG-13, simply for Tajima.
Character/Pairing: gen ensemble, but there's some pairing hints here and there. AbeMihashi and
TajimaHanai are the most blatant. But still, gen.
Summary: Abe is not amused by Tajima's antics during winter break, and Mihashi finds a place
to belong.
Word count: 1,623
A/N: Done for Drae for Yuletide. This was my initial one. Many thanks to Yukeh, who saw an earlier draft and listened to me whine and flail and to Ammy, for the quick beta.

Don't know what that means, but huzzah!

LOVE MEME

Love me? ♥

Flyby recs of a various nature: Drop, Oofuri, ToS. Really pretty, soft and watercolor-like. definitely worth a look. (Oofuri: a lot of Shinooka ♥, um, Hamada/Izumi, Mizutani/Sakeguchi, others, ToS: one MithosGenis&Cat, quite a bit of LloydZelos, with some Girl!Zelos and even Girl!loli!Genis. )

Turn Out the Lights and Dance by cephiedvariable (Harry/Ginny, Sirus/Remus though it's actually more a character piece) I'm not a huge H/G fan (Understatement! I thought it could be cute enough by book five, but book six and seven made me find it -- and Ginny's developments, entirely repugnant. But I digress) But the summary was intriguing so I warily clicked and was really pleasantly surprised. The characterization is smooth and fluid and shows intuitive looks at Ginny's characterization, also the slice of Sirius/Remus was just gorgeous
Seriously? I wish JKR could write like her like this. inb4 R haets hp comment!


btw, Aimee upped this one. existentialism on prom night ; straylight run. I'm totally in love with it now.

Anxiety by thehoyden -- Oofuri, Abe/Mihashi. Oh my god, this fic is so just so in-character and cute and fluffy and I totally could spazz all over it more if I was coherent and actually had sleep but omg just read it ~ seriously, I really look forward to more of her Oofuri stuffs (but then, it's THEHOYDEN, amazing fic isn't a surprise when it comes to her pen, er keyboard.)

Things You Only Wish You Knew About Ichihara Yuuko by doumeki utterly gorgeous Holic piece and perhaps the best use of a 20_facts part that i've ever seen. Haunting and lovely and fitting with the surrealness of the series, truly, just check it out :]

springkink -- for those who missed it earlier (like say, ME *facepalms*) it's back in session for October~! Signups have been up since 9/11, but they'll be up until a bout the end of October (but of course, you can't sign up for a theme/day after it's passed)
springkinkis essentially the lovechild of a torrid affair between yaoi_challenge and 31_days certain prompts fall on certain days, claim them and they must be finished on those days. 100 words minimum, fic or art. Lots of fandoms, really fascinating ideas. I have a lot to do, but it won't hurt to claim one or two, now will it? ;}

also, speaking of 31_days -- fic.

Title: Entangled
Theme/day: September 26th / Your hair was long when we first met
Character/Pairing: light Ike+Soren
Series: Fire Emblem: (Path of Radiance)
Summary: Tangled hair and childhood memories, Soren finds himself in in much deeper than he thought. Some IkeSoren
Word count: 877
A/N: considered to be set some time after chapter 23's infamous base scene, and references it, somewhat. I was basically just practicing characterization. It turned out rather more sparse than usual, I’m not sure why. Preoccupation, perhaps? Not my best, but hey, I’m relatively new to this fandom. ;;

The original title was ‘your hair was long when we first met’ and the original summary was: Soren brushing his hair before bed, Ike remembering, subtle longing and flirting, perhaps a bit too subtle for Ike.
