I founda bottle of rum lurking at the back of a cupboard.
Honey spiced rum. Beepr's rum, apparently. It's quite nice, tastes of christmas. Wife thinks it tastes of home, so it must be special.
It's incidental.
I exercised earlier, in a discord chat, the issue of timing and writing, and the distance between one moment and the next. I've just written a scene that I have been looking forward to writing for quite some time, and that forms one of the key moments in the fic in which it takes place, as a reference back to an earlier moment that seemed, at the time, relatively innocuous. The only issue is, the amoutn of time between scene A and Scene B (B being the Best scene up to this moment) means that more than a few of my readers will have waited so long for the next chapter that they may not necessarily remember the moment previously referenced, and might miss the entire point of everything that happens in the whole, er, thing.
BUT ANYWAY
I am writing one of those moments. I wanted to write this several years ago. It's got me all giddy and, to be frank, I am a bit giggly about publishing it. If you're an earlier ready, or someone who has forgotten all that came before, I beg your indulgence on this. You may be rewarded. You may not. Such is life. I only regret that it's taken so long to get to this point.
I'm off to find more rum now. Tata!
And yes the tagged story is relevant.
Hi!
I'm a writer!
Well. I suppose I'll have to reread an archonix story. Woe. Tragedy. Whatever shall I do?
Rum, an old friend that likes to kick me in the end after leaving... I believe I shall go invite the kraken over.

Its alright, i tend to reread fics when it's been a while.
I'm glad you're happy about it. :)
Had this in my “might read if it lives” folder for a while. Am very happy.
