Thanks
And, awkwardly timed after just being called productive, the Mother's Day fic is, obviously, not on time. But since I'll be using the 'it's mother's day
somewhere loophole' I've decided to go for a slower pace and a few more scenes than I'd planned, so hopefully it'll be worth the wait.
And it's Thursday, MKF! The last day in the old house too, so from tomorrow on, no more spending all my time packing stuff up - instead, spending all my time unpacking (and fixing all the bits that fell off the Lego in transit). But here's something Kittens might enjoy, the Mantlepiece of Amber Stuff (photo'd so I can set it up the same way after the move):

It's not creepy, honest - if it was bedside table, that'd be creepy, this is just fandom. Signed photos and so forth, fairly self-explanatory, yes that's a VHS of Chance (I've got a dvd as well), the kitten (to misquote Top Gear) isn't MKF, but she is MKF's Australian cousin (and a model, not an actual kitty), and over on the far right that's a set from Charmed, which I just thought made a nice backdrop to the action figures there. Far left, yeah, that's me. The open space on the left is where the OMWF statues go, I'd already packed them away in their styrofoam boxes to keep them safe. The image pasted in is to cover up the photoshopped (i.e. not allowed on the board) W/T-as-mums image I did (which is on my site, the one of Tara with their baby and Willow looking on proudly), which somehow I managed to nervously ask Amber to sign - I mean, it's not difficult to imagine someone being presented with 'hey here's this picture of you I photoshopped' and their first thought is 'Oh god, it's my face stuck on a porn star, isn't it?', so that was kind of a daunting moment (I mean obviously the image isn't tacky, but it's mildly racy, so y'know) but she didn't seem perturbed. Since the body for Tara was originally from an ad Lucy Lawless did to promote breastfeeding, she signed it "I got the bod of a warrior!"
(The She-Hulk figure isn't related, that's just because I'm a big fan of She-Hulk, she deserves a small spot on the almighty mantlepiece. Same with the little bits in front of the Chance tape, they're Major Kira's combadge, rank sign, and earring.)
