Quick note

[thisbluespirit]

... to say I finally got around to posting the fandom_stocking stories I wrote (or most of them) into the community's AO3 collection. So, apologies those of you who may suddenly find a note to say you've got a gift, and then it's only that!

If people want to know the links are under the cut - that share feature is very, very handy! (Two of these I have already posted to Teaspoon, of course.)

Just read the Maid Marian fic again - still makes me smile ;D

:) And how are you feeling by the way? Did the week off do you a bit of good?

[thisbluespirit]

Well, yes, thanks, so much so, I'm going to have another one this week. ;-) I have progressed to a place where it is possible I might get properly better, maybe even very soon (and there is never any guarantee of that, once something kicks off the ME this badly). The last couple of days, I even seem to own a brain again, so it's all improving, I hope & I have another week & then see the doctor again.

How are things with you?

[jjpor.livejournal.com]

Well, that's good to hear. Yes, you should take as much time as you think you need, especially if you think you really are on the mend - no sense in messing things up by rushing back to work.

I'm all right, you know? Sort of coming out of whatever it was I was in over Christmas a little bit. Feeling a bit more positive, forcing myself to do a bit of writing but not as much as I'd like then feeling guilty about that... ;D I sort of try and put things in perspective when I read about other people's problems and realise I'm really not so badly off, all things considered.

[thisbluespirit]

Well, I have to see the doctor again on Friday, anyway, so we'll see. I keep doing all the sensible things I can; and I post stuff here, so at least even the other week that was something positive I could do. I'm a bit more capable of talking on the phone now, but it was my only outside contact for most of the other week, really. (It's all a bit ironic, because I've spent most of the last year wanting to be anywhere but work, but really, not like this!)

Well, I'm glad to hear things are improving at least a bit, (although that's a silly thing to feel guilty over when everything is so tough). ;-) And it's never much comfort that worse things happen at sea, so :-( . If they do, anyway...

[jjpor.livejournal.com]

Aw, well, keep doing the sensible things and keep posting stuff if it helps, and fingers crossed. But yeah, irony = not amusing in real life, most of the time.

And I know, but I feel guilty about all sorts of things with varying degrees of relevance and/or reason. Just the way I am, I suppose. :)

You already know how much I love Clyde and Rani going to the movies. I squeed a bit when I saw it in my email in box after you shared it, just because it reminded me of how great that fic was. Cheered me right up. :D

[thisbluespirit]

Aw. I just thought maybe I should post to the collection, since I had an account! Glad it could still make you smile, anyway. :-)

Of all these fics the Robin Hood one is brilliant - never would have occured to me as a crossover and throwing equally tough Ace in as Marian's replacement is genius. This is a show I haven't seen in years and it was great to recall all the fun ideas which went into it.

[thisbluespirit]

Thanks! It just came out of a sort of discussion or joke with jjpor and thought it might do for his fandom_stocking. Glad you enjoyed it as well.

♥ ♥ ♥ the Who / Press Gang crossover. What a front-page story that could have been!

[thisbluespirit]

:-D Aw, thanks! :-)
