Light is on for: Anyone!

What's in the Bowl?
A ficlet for Yuri on Ice, the Morose Mononokean, or The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind - you can try me for Oblivion/Skyrim as well, but I'm the most familiar with the lore and characters related to Morrowind
Figure skating or rhythmic gymnastics video recs

Let Me Know:
For ficlets: Characters/relationships (shippy or gen), a prompt scenario of some kind (can be as short as 'first kiss' or longer), and if shipfic, let me know if you don't want something NSFW. If you'd like it to be gifted to you when I upload to AO3, please tell me what your username is.
For FS/RG videos: I've watched a fair amount of older videos for FS, so let me know if you're really only interested in more recent (or older!) programs.

Other info:
Open to writing works of any rating and relationship type; I'll let you know if your prompt is something I can't do, and you can ask for something else. I don't write omegaverse, daddy/mommy kink, or most setting/career change AUs.
For YOI: I'm open to writing many gen relationships and rare pairs. However, I'm not super interested in Otayuri, Chris/that guy, or Phichit/Seung-gil.

I have not really written anything this week between work being more stressful than usual and getting hit by Covid/flu vaccine side effects pretty badly this year. But hopefully that changes today.

An assortment of things that have been happening recently:

I am co-modding the Elder Scrolls Big Bang. We got way more sign-ups than we expected (yay!) and so far I think things have been going relatively smoothly considering this is our first year, except for some hiccups with email delivery. Looking forward to a lot of cool art and fic in December.

Also released my first Morrowind mod, which should have been a simple retexture that I had weird lighting issue with. Love these old games. Hopefully the second one won't have those problems!

We have been getting quotes on replacing a very drafty window and our doors, which are also poorly sealed; we ended up completely taping one up because it was letting in so many bugs. And still waiting on the final septic estimate as we apparently have... geographical challenges. They aren't kidding about houses being money pits lolsob. At least removing drafts is good for the heating bill.

Z and I finally put in the bird feeder that my parents gave us for Christmas. It's right outside my office and has attracted many kinds of birds (our cat, Koro, is enjoying the new show). There's a camera on it, too, need to figure out how it works one of these days. My favorites to watch might be the woodpeckers, because they make lot of weird diagonal movements. Very distinct from the other birds. The turkeys have been around again as well, though not for the bird feeder.

Had woodchips delivered a couple weeks ago and have been slowly spreading them out. Most of the work is in getting them up the hill. They look a lot nicer than the cardboard I've been using for weed suppression, haha. Koro was FASCINATED watching the delivery.

Speaking of Koro, we took him to the vet the other day for his check-up. He has a slightly hyperactive thyroid, but the medicine comes in a form where you can just rub it into his ears... and he loooooves having his ears touched.

The one-burner induction stove on which we have been doing 95% of our cooking was the victim of a glass spice jar falling out of the cabinet and making a big hole in the top with the collision :( we have taken this as a chance to replace our range with an induction one, at least. We really prefer cooking with it.

Skating boots still hurt. Graf is now making me a free replacement pair since I have kind of exhausted all other ways to make them work. If you need good customer service, I can vouch for them at least.

My scratch spin is becoming more consistent. It's a lot more fun to work on spins once you start to get the feeling down!

Like half the game-playing internet, I have been very taken with Dressmaker. I'm not surprised it took off as much as it did - the niche of people who like playing dress-up games was clearly underserved, and it's made with a lot of care, a storyline with continuous upgrades, and sooooooo many options. Just wish real sewing was quite this easy!

I had my birthday in late August. We had a couple of friends and their new baby over, and this was the cake I made:
Purple cake with swirl decoration and candles

Chocolate with lavender-rose ermine frosting. Not the fanciest to look at but very good. Color hastily reconstructed because it was one of those shades of purple that cameras love to try to color-correct away.
