Quick hits

1. The Heroes/X-Men crossover of DOOM has hit 25,000 words. I'm not really sure if it's wrapping up, but I know, at least, that the first 22,000 words can start getting posted sometime soon. Look for it sometime this afternoon.

2. If you've not yet signed up to make me your Holiday Ficlet Bitch, clicky here. And it's okay; I know you mean "bitch" in the coolest way possible.

Note to self:

When preparing to post the first part of a hefty fic, it'd probably do you well to have a title for aforementioned fic.

And let your flist know that the Heroes/X-Men fic of DOOM will be delayed due to this error.

Brilliantly done.

Note to self, suba:

Get a ::facepalm:: icon for moments such as these.

General Note to fic writers

When you're writing a fic the day after an episode airs, and your author's notes contain spoilers, WARN A GIRL, YEAH?!

I've had two major points from the new Heroes ruined for me because I had the damned nerve to read my flist. GODDAMNIT.

I knew one was happening, but not the other. IT'S THE DAY AFTER, PEOPLE. USE A LITTLE SENSE.

EDIT: Spoilers are now in the comments. [See? Is that so TERRIBLY DIFFICULT?]

Author's Notes: amazonqueenkate is an enabler. And she proofreads. So I suppose it evens out. Do note: I have created my own, personal, X-Men team. Because I can. Look, if Joss Whedon can pull Colossus from the grave, I can have Jean Gray and Warren and Kurt all on the same team.

( Wherein Matt considers shooting Xavier. )
