I had a birthday yesterday, and it was awesome. No cake, but I did have banana bread and momo and played video games, and this weekend was a lovely bike trip and ice cream sundaes and reading so much trashy tropey fic. Sooooo much.

I also posted new fic:

The years of doing this -- the same case files full of replicants, the same days and weeks of hunting them through the streets of LA, the same whistling of the kettle when the water's ready -- they're all sitting on Mike's shoulders, weighing him down.

I've been writing things, hooray! I, um, accidentally forgot to cross-post this X-Men fic, despite posting it a month ago.

Wild Magic (3587 words) by thedeadparrot

Rating: Mature
Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings
Relationships: Jeff Carter/Mike Richards
Characters: Mike Richards, Jeff Carter
Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Magical Realism, Hunters & Hunting, Animal Butchering
Summary:

On the ice, he careens into opposing players, he fires off slapshots, he wins faceoffs, and he gets into fights. He does it all with the taste of the lake's water on his tongue, the feel of its winter ice underneath his skates. Some of the other witches chirp him for cheating, for using his magic where it's not allowed. But they don't get it. Mike's magic has never been something he does. It's always been something he is.

In case you really wanted to read about deer butchering today or something.
