The Magicians

I like it when friends post "a day in the life" with pics, so here's my version. It's only a little bit "day in the life" though - it's mostly "autumn in my neighbourhood", but that's fun, too.

I was up late (reading HR fanfic ofc) so slept in to about 10 am (6-7 hours sleep), then pottered about getting ready for the Junk2Go blokes to arrive. Two days before I'd hired a guy called Birol off a tradie hook-up site we have here where you post about a job you want done and people looking for work give you a quote. I'd finally seen sense and realised I was never going to tidy and reorganise my garage myself, let alone assemble the flatpack shelving unit that'd been languishing under dusty crap for the past three years. (The garage is potting shed, storage, and laundry.) So Birol (who reminded me a bit of Bogdan from The Thursday Murder Club) had arrived, and with me supervising, had assembled the shelves and sorted out the garage. Then today the Junk2Go guys took away the heap of junk and flattened cardboard boxes. Vast improvement! I still have bench tidying to do, but it's manageable now.

The rest of my day was given over, as ever, to reading fanfic, finishing my Heated Rivalry rewatch, and doing podfic archiving on the Audiofic Archive. A good day. Hugs to you all! ❤️

This was a prompt in the ICE OUT donation challenge that caught my eye, and suddenly I was with bunny. I can only write crack in omegaverse, so it's extremely cracky.

To the Victor, the Spoils on AO3 (Shane/Ilya, M, no warnings).
Summary: Montreal secedes, installs Metros captain and noted omega Shane Hollander as their constitutional monarch, and organizes a skills contest for his hand in marriage.

How did my life turn into this circus? Learning the intricacies of the skills competition at the NHL All Stars weekend so as to write omegaverse crack? OMG, what are my monkeys doing now! (hockey and fucking)
