(why did i do this to myself, i ask)
Sep. 19th, 2023 07:15 pmSo! Just Married Ex 2023 is over XD I got an absolutely magnificent fic that I just adore. Like, seriously, it is perfection.
I got:
Fandom: Fullmetal Alchemist
Title: attained in your present affiliation
Author: bloodmoney
I wrote:
Fandom: Leverage
Title: leaves over the mountain range
Author: hoodwinked
This was my first fandom exchange and to be honest I'm a little iffy on how I feel about it. Like, it was stressful? There was pressure, at least to me, since if I got a fic but ended up defaulting, I'd feel super bad. And I didn't want to do that. So. Yeah, pressure and stress, and honestly, I don't know how I feel about the fic I wrote. It's not bad, I don't think, but I don't much care for it.
Anyway, I did the sensible thing and not sign up for FFFX2023 (I wasn't even done with Just Married Ex when signups were open!). And... then I signed up for a pinch hit anyway. Sigh.
The pinch hit spoke to me! It tempted me! I couldn't not ahjksfhads but at least with doing a pinch hit there's not that pressure that I must finish it or I suck. So that's nice. I don't quite know how I'll approach exchanges in the future; I might try again, might stick to pinch hits... we'll see. I did manage to write a fic for Fandom Gift Basket though!
Also. I signed up for Small Fandoms Bang. Because why not, at this point.
