labellementeuseQuick rec:
Twenty-Year Man, by ellen fremedon. Vorkosigan Saga, spoilers through Cryoburn (although not significant ones, I don't think), Byerly/Ivan aka the pairing I never knew I wanted but am now OBSESSED WITH PLEASE WRITE ME SOME PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.
Ahem.
OK, with more dignity, I think I've read this fic five times sinceshihadchick linked to it a couple of weeks ago. It's long enough to wallow in a little, it's brilliantly written, perfectly Ivan, a fascinating character story and a seriously good plot and interesting look at Barrayar and oh my god guys they're perfect together PLEASE EVERYONE WRITE THIS PAIRING FOREVER. Oh look just go read it, OK? You'll like it, I promise. and while I'm at it if anyone has some good Ivan fic, I'd love to hear about it.
Nothing much else going on except that a) I got two FREE bookshelves yesterday, bliss oh bliss, b) I'm registered for swing classes starting next week, eek, and c) oh my god if you ever have to fill out a FoRST grant report just don't, just say no, quit your job, change your name, move away, start over. Horrendous.
Although I might be overstating the case because I haven't been sleeping well lately on account of not being able to breathe well because a couple weeks ago my allergy meds ran out and I didn't motivate myself to go and get some more. Idiot. I always think after one day oh it's not so bad, but two weeks later I can't breathe through my nose at all, my sleep is really interrupted and I wake up exhausted every morning, I have no brain at all when I am awake, tired all the time, etc. NEVER AGAIN.
