rose_griffes | and to all a good night

Merry Christmas! This has been such a weird year that, like many others, I'm rejoicing in the signs of it coming to an end. But also: Christmas is, I hope, a lovely time of year for you, if it's something you honor. Here's a post I wrote more than ten years ago about Christ and the Christmas story.

Update for this year: roommate R moved out a couple of months ago. And, in some wonderful news, her youngest child got the hoped-for organ transplant, so R is spending Christmas helping her daughter recuperate.

Roommate H, who lived here before roommate R, has moved back in. It's a bit more complicated than just "revolving door situation", but given that we're mid-pandemic, we're both pleased to have someone around on a Christmas day that doesn't allow for the usual travel to see more distant friends and family.

Anyway. A gift I received - fanfic! Sweet and introspective.

Gaby and Illya take tonight's stake out shift. It's only been a few weeks into their partnership, and Gaby has questions for Illya as she adjusts.

I wrote something as well. Feel free to guess what and I'll write you a ficlet if you guess right. Possibly even if you guess wrong. I'm not giving any hints; there are only 18 works posted in the Man from UNCLE exchange this year, so it's not that much to go through, if you're the determined sort.
