my qaf nostalgia is strong, grasshoppers.  
Unfortunately, my ability to ever finish my huge-ass QaF nostalgia post is not. I think the sheer amount of info I want to put it in (all the memories!) is bogging me down and these last few months have basically been me opening the file and then, y'know, staring dumbly at it before wandering off to make icons. And rather than give up like a dork, I have this diabolical plan to just start posting little "remember when..?" posts at random whenever the mood strikes me. Diabolical, I say!

Mmm, yes. Just so happens I'm in the mood now. Fancy that! And I start with one of my Top 10 QaF Fics Evah:

"M'not good...for you," he panted. "Not good."

"You are good," I said, and he let out a shaky sob. I licked across his cheeks, under his nose, ate his tears and willed him to believe me. "Better than anyone." --Maps and Legends

AKA, the peyote chapter that I read obsessively. Though, really, every chapter in this masterpiece kills me in some way. Remember the "I HATE YOU" scene? I couldn't function properly after that for awhile, so perfect. Two of our best writers, hands down.

Oh, QaF. Oh, fandom. I heart you. \:D/

I'm quite sure I love your diabolical plan.:D

And I adore "Maps and Legends". It was one of the first fics I read and it's still my favorite. I think by now I have read it so many times that I almost know it by heart...:) The "I hate you" scene really is perfect.
