Why hello, dear flist.

I'm really awful at updating this journal, as I'm sure you've noticed (or not, really, I don't make much of a splash or draw attention to myself at all). I actually used to have an introduction post, in which I vowed to keep this journal overflowing with rl updates, fic, and recs.

HAHAHAHAHAHAH--yeah, no. Not so much. Lurker-mindset, why can't I quit you?

But I do have a rec! A very important one. This story actually made me cry, and that really hardly ever happens, both in fandom and in rl. It's actually in the Merlin fandom, not my principal wife bandom, but I honestly think the concepts in the fic transcend all of that. (lol, I'm starting to sound pretentious. Oh, dear. I'll just hurry up and give you the link now.)

Accidental Memory in the Case of Death by derryere
Tony O does not befriend losers. Tony O is not gay, not crazy, he is not particularly nice and he is most definitely not royalty. Destiny disagrees.

This is pretty much everything you've ever wanted in a reincarnation fic, and also everything you didn't know you wanted. I did mention tearing up, yes, but on the whole, the story isn't sad. Instead, it's fiercely hopeful, but not in that obnoxious way. Sort of a rollercoaster of emotions, I suppose. I dunno. READ IT. Bit of an epic, this one, but well worth it. Also, you won't even notice the hours slipping away while you frantically scroll down.

In advance: YOU'RE WELCOME. This fic is fucking amazing.

yes, dear. I'm commenting since you told me to.
still not reading the fic, though. You'll have to give me a better quote thing to convince me.
also, in conclusion, E-MAIL ME BACK! sheesh, this is not a hardship. I send you fic and everything. days ago.
