quick update

[neveralarch]

It's been a while since I posted! I am alive. Minneapolis got a huge amount of snow on Sunday, and the roads were slippery for a while, but I did not crash my car or crash in someone else's car, although my fencing coach does enjoy fishtailing WAY too much when he's giving me a ride.

I'm kind of buried under papers and also Yuletide atm - one paper is almost done, and I need to start the other one soon, but I'm feeling optimistic. And my Yuletide fic is very very close to done, so that's good, as I also have an exam on Monday that I need to prep for.

Everything's winding down for the semester - classes ending, last fencing practice yesterday (though I might go to the club on Tuesday if I'm caught up enough with my paper), people abandoning campus. I'm driving out on Thursday and plan to be home for almost a month, which will be great. As long as the roads are clear for my two-day drive.

I was really into the not!fic meme for a while, but I've since run out of time for writing things that don't have a deadline. I promise I'll get back to the unanswered prompts soon! In the meantime, here is what I've done already:
Skyfall:
Whishaw!Q & Dench!M bodyswap for justice_turtle
Elizabethan Skyfall AU for narwhale_callin
Hornblower:
Bush/Hornblower highschool AU for aralias

And I am still taking prompts if you don't mind waiting a while for a response. Writing these is actually really great - I'm writing them the same way I write plot summaries before I write a fic, and I'm definitely tempted to try and flesh a couple (or all of these) out into a real fic once the semester is over and I can breathe.

oh my god oh my god OH MY GOD you have me CACKLING SO HARD over those two skyfall not!fics I would read a MILLION WORDS OF EITHER OF THEM and also of the M & Q bodysharing I CANNOT EVEN

(the cackling is kind of embarrassing since I am currently at work on my lunch break and WHAT IF MY COWORKERS HEAR ME MAKING EMBARRASSING NOISES OF GLEE. BUT WHATEVER!)

UPDATE, I then nearly choked on my food while giggling over the Hornblower one, and I've never even READ the Hornblower books, but it was just SO CHARMING

:DD I read these comments during my lunchbreak yesterday, and they made my day. I'm really glad you liked, even if you're not familiar with the Hornblower books. (Which are really great, btw, I definitely recommend them.)
