Well, autumn sure is over. This snow looks like it's here to stay. It's also fucking cold out - I swear, I'll have to pull my fur hat out of storage before the week's over.

Still, there's such a divine feeling in the air when you're out at night, and it's pitch dark, and there's a carpet of white everywhere, and it's snowing....

I've been out of sorts - I always get that way when holidays fall in the middle of the week - but it's all right. Next week will be better.

Fic rec: Drowning by Filigranka. Slavic mythology, 300 words, Marzanna/Jarilo (and implied Veles/Jarilo), centred around this cyclical triangle of life/death/renewal. NR + CNTW. This was a late Multifandom Drabble gift, and I must say, it was a wonderful surprise... Absolutely beautiful writing here. I will note - Filigranka took all of my dark canon-specific loves and rolled them up into one tightly-packed story, and the result is amazing. And that means it won't be to everyone's taste, but it's definitely worth a read if you aren't easily squicked, or if you happen to be into erotic temporary murder.
