Siblings - especially half-siblings - can be complicated. But when Sebastian needs his sister, Maru is there.



(I only wrote one gift for the exchange, for "I Want to be a Wall" - meant to write more, but with RL events my creativity just dropped for a while! But the recipient seemed to like it.)

Here's the collection!

Database maintenance

Good morning, afternoon, and evening!

We're doing some database and other light server maintenance this weekend (upgrading the version of MySQL we use in particular, but also probably doing some CDN work.)

I expect all of this to be pretty invisible except for some small "couple of minute" blips as we switch between machines, but there's a chance you will notice something untoward. I'll keep an eye on comments as per usual.

Ta for now!

OK, I'm borrowing from previous letters, but that's cool, right? :)


Some general stuff: I really love found family, friendship fic, hijinks, case fic, special powers (if you hadn't guessed from my fandoms!), teens that are Too Bright for Their Own Good (Five is... like that), platonic affection, extremely competent characters doing their thing (think Leverage the show as competence porn), and bonding fic. I gave a lot of plotty prompts, but feel free to give me a good character story too.

Things I don't much like: sex, violence (canon typical is fine if it serves the plot), other people's identity headcanons, stories that are basically romance as the plot, plots that can be resolved if the characters would just talk to each other! I'm also not a big fan of modern AUs, coffee shop AUs and the like. (AUs that are "what if something else happened in canon" are fun and I adore them.) Real world politics are too much right now.

"fake it til you make it"

Oh, friends, what a month. We are all doing such a good job; kudos to us. Consider collecting a beverage of your choice while I do not try to tell a tale.

Instead:
♥ November noveling month is coming; it's year 3 of 50k in Chinese!
♥ Daphne and I got to see the weir being taken down this fall. Neat.
♥ And the wind and waves of an early nor'easter blowing in on the beach.
♥ Marci and I enjoyed an autumn craft fair with lots of crochet and cider donuts!
♥ Next is a Halloween race by the bay; matching sweatshirts may be involved.

The world is a lovely and terrible place.

Quarterly update to check in on my year goals while there's still time to achieve them:
1) [community profile] inkingitout morning pages goal going well
2) [community profile] inkingitout story goal intermittent but reachable*
3) reading goal faltered a bit over the summer
4) gave up on [community profile] chinesestudy early I see
5) restarted and re-stopped [community profile] fandom50challenge
6) finished black dragon diamond painting & started seasonal fox
7) gardens went significantly better than expected

*my plan for the rest of the year is 5% Tron: Ares fic and 95% seasonal Mo Dao Zu Shi fluff

I got a lego tree for the dollhouse; I should build that. Loved doing the poster art for [community profile] battleshipex. Very happy to have recorded more speaking during [community profile] communal_creators.

Got a shirt that says "love everyone" and every time I wear it I am reminded to act more the way I want to be.

(Thus I went with "fake it til you make it" as the subject, but "just because you can't do everything doesn't mean you can't do anything" was a close second.)
