I meant to write a sequel to Being Found almost before I actually wrote it. It just... took me a while to follow through. But here it is! More cuddles! More porn! A whole new POV!

Many thanks to giddygeek for sorting me out and making sure I wrote the actual ending instead of just choosing a place to stop.

Summary:

This was going to be a thing they did, now.

Generation Kill wolf-verse Iraq story: 70,048 words
Scenes to go in Act IV: 5.5 events plus a montage
Acts to go after this one: just one! not sure what happens in it, but just one.
Pairings in this story so far: 4. ish. Not counting wolves. Or things happening vaguely offscreen.

ONWARD.

It's that time of year again, when I resurrect this meme for annual-comparison purposes. Last year and the year before I posted about my top ten stories on the AO3 by hits and here's this year's list:

( Oh look, it's a lot of Teen Wolf. )

So my top ten is 70% Teen Wolf, and eight stories from last year were knocked out by stories from this year; I would blame this entirely on Teen Wolf, but last year I had six stories knocked out by new ones, so it's not actually totally unprecedented.

Still, though. Writing a juggernaut pairing in a juggernaut fandom: o.O

People who avoid WIPs or people who were waiting for the ending, have at! :D

Do mind the tags, though.

A couple of weeks ago I went running for the first time in a couple of months (I run outside, so ice and cold and snow are serious deterrents and, yeah, next year maybe a gym membership for the winter) and ... I didn't actually do anything I could perceive, I just came up lame all of a sudden, and after that my foot hurt to even walk on for several days.

The first or second night after it happened, I had a dream about taking a long bicycle trip.

Yes, thank you subconscious, I have cracked your code. Maybe it would be better to take up a non-impact activity at least temporarily.


Last night I spent a lot of time staring at my Generation Kill wolf-verse Iraq story, which I had skipped out of working on for a few days in favor of scribbling away at Teen Wolf kidfic. I also spent some time talking (whining) to the very patient petra and iulia about how much I didn't want to work on the Iraq story and how I knew I needed to finish it and how I was grimly determined but wahhhhhhhh. Etc.

Last night, I dreamed I was re-enlisting in the Marines, complete with two dude Marines following me up to the table to sign both leering at me and joking (I felt coolly superior to them, as I outranked them, which they would realize once we were all back in uniform) and standing tall at attention, determined to show no fear, while a bored officer warned me that there was a fifty percent chance the gas mask drill I had to do as part of the fitness test for re-enlisting would involve actual gas of some kind.

Yes, subconscious. I GET IT. I'm going to do this, and I'm going to do it well, even if parts of it suck and hurt. YES. OKAY.

chemm80 has posted podfic of my GK PTSD babyfic, Don't You Shake Alone!

And on the other end of the story-length spectrum, knight_tracer posted podfic of my shortest Derek/Stiles story, New Moon Shine!

Teen Wolf Beauty and the Beast (ish) AU: 115,021

DONE.

(Except for first-proofreading and sending-to-betas and getting-back-from-betas and arguing-with-Iulia-about-beta-comments and sucking-it-up-and-fixing-things and last-proofreading and so on. But for now: DONE, DONE, DONE.)

I have been reading a lot of really awesome fic lately, to the detriment of my focus on Vera Brittain's Testament of Youth, which is also awesome but involves a lot of people dying but, thus far, no one having scorchingly hot sex on-page. (I'll let you know if that changes.)

Anyway, here, share my screwed up circadian rhythm! Read these things!
