B-days and Pimp and Memeage

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY to siamkatze and wildestranger, and

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to moshes and pushdragon
(who, I keep thinking every year, are amazing people to share one's b-day with!)

Most giddy thanks to greenspine and hphaeton for balloons and card and for the good wishes! *hugs*

And whoa... liriaen wrote me Cinque Stagioni (NC-17), the sequel to Crush, the end of the story between Cesare Borgia and poor Astorre Manfredi! It's... words fail me, it's just incredible! *sniffles*
And if you're into Manga fandoms at all, check out her Cranes in Winter (fandom: Peacemaker Kurogane). I may not be able to spell either title or characters, but that story is superbly touching and beautiful!.

And today's the best day to get away with memeage, I guess. So here goes, shamelessly filched from bryonyraven:

YOU'RE ON MY FRIENDS LIST, I WANNA KNOW YOU… I want to know 34 things about you. I don’t care if we never talk, never liked each other, or if we already know everything about each other. Short and sweet is fine… I just wanna know you better! Thanks! :)

Five Favourite Fics Meme

Think I can get away with even more memeage, and, *gasp*, obvious self-pimping?

Mixing the Five Favourite Fics Meme (filched from all over the place) with the GoodThingsBadThings version of cluegirl's:

Post a list of your top five favorite fics you've written, regardless of fandom or the reason you love them. This isn't about the BEST things you've written, but what you LOVE most. Then, tell us the Good and Bad about them.
