Yuletide!

[elaby]

The Yuletide gift authors have been revealed, so now I can post the fic I wrote! It's for the movie of Howl's Moving Castle, and deals with some of the darker side of Howl's magic and he and Calcifer's relationship.

The recipient liked it and was very gracious and appreciative (and had wonderful insightful comments). I hope you'll read it if you're interested :)

In other (ultimately more important) news, caitirin and I are now in a legally recognized union! That sounds funny. We were married last fall, but now the state's caught up! WHEE! We had a JP sign our civil union license and now it's all formalized and legal. *does a dance* We went to a celebration at a Unitarian Universalist church and it was very lovely.

<3 <-- The world is full of that today!

Congratulations!!

Great news about the state recognising you as a 'couple'.

What a way to start the New Year!

PS I liked the sdtory you wrote too. I love 'snippet' stories which are not convoluted or complicated, but simple, to the point, well characterised and could have been found on the cutting room floor simply for lack of time.

Well Done, that fits beautifully!

Oh, squee! Thank you so much! That's the best compliment I could get - that it fits into canon well :)

Thank you ^_^ I love that icon! Who is it?

[elaby.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Hee, I can never decide what to call it... we have now been civil unionized?

[elaby.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! ^_^

[anonymous-greg.livejournal.com]

Oh, phyne. Now all I can think about is a new form of an old jingle:

Look for ... the Civil Union! :D


You've been...

...civilly united?

...???

[elaby.livejournal.com]

Why yes, we did it quite civilly! I don't think I know that jingle.

[anonymous-greg.livejournal.com]

Look for the union label!

...is/was the jingle used by organized labour to basically say only buy stuff made by unionized workers.

[elaby.livejournal.com]

Ohhh. I see!

[anonymous-greg.livejournal.com]

Whoa.

[elaby.livejournal.com]

It's Captain Aizen and his lieutenant, Gin Ichimaru, from Bleach doing the Caramel Dansen dance. Very silly. ^_^
