incandescens | Moral fables

I was listening to Sweeney Todd earlier this evening, and thought of describing it as "a moral fable about a barber, a piemaker, a judge, and certain other people of varying moral character."

Got to see the pdf draft of Hearts, Swords, and Flowers. Very pretty indeed. Very promising. I look forward to seeing the art.

I need to get back to writing The Lion and the Unicorn.

Finished a fic. It'll be interesting to see what people think of it. (Yes, April, that one. ;))
