Just a touch of linkspam before I pass out again

Sixth Annual Valentine Fairy Deputization! I'm just going to link to last year's because homg, I am sick. I woke up with a cough and then wrestled with an extremely unhappy stomach for most of the morning. So... not doing so good. You may not hear much from me today, I don't know. It'll depend. If anything important happens (cough), you'll hear about it by tomorrow at the latest.

(Related reminder: The Eowyn (Not Eowyn) and book auction ends tomorrow.)

I will, however, show you my favorite valentine-themed earrings. I think I've had them since high school at least, if not middle school. Each one has a pink stone and a white/iridescent stone, and the hearts are tiny lockets.

( It's the Valentine's Day gift that says I love you... and I'm into rope )

Kind of an epic update

So. The big day. We had to wait until THE COVER OF NIGHT OMG to fit White Arwen, because Eowyn insisted (in a surprisingly shy way) on spending Friday with Faramir--I think she was trying to be encouraging, not knowing he already had something planned, and I couldn't figure out how to divert her in a way that wouldn't totally tip her off. So, in the DEPTHS OF NIGHT, Arwen and the Faramirs and I sneaked into the bathroom and tried to figure out how to convert a five-foot scarf into a 1:6 scale cloak without any sewing, because I don't know how. You do what you can.

"Gold or silver side out?"

( Y'all, I had no idea Valentine's Day was going to be so wrenching )
