First again?

[wiseheart.livejournal.com]

Well, works for me. Good news for today: I wrote almost three pages for the "Sleeping Dragons" story and even managed to type them up. Also, I began posting A Big, Fat Torchwood Wedding to AO3 - 7 chapters are up, the other seven still to go. I hope I'll manage to put up at least some of them tonight.

Today's snippet:

“Mr Palmer will follow us independently,” Owen filled in the others after dinner. “He will try to infiltrate the lab later, should Teaboy fail to arrange for us an official visit.”
“And what are we supposed to do in the meantime?” Jenny asked. “Can we really go and see the Skarasen? I would so like to meet it in the flesh!”
“The what?” Adam asked, bewildered.
“The Loch Ness monster,” Jenny replied matter-of-factly.
Adam’s eyes bulged a little at that. “Are you telling me that Nessie is real?”

Heh, my family's ancestral castle sit on the banks of Lock Ness (yes, for real, real). I'd love to meet Nessie, but she was being shy the day we were there last.

And you bet your kilt she's real! :D

I use Donegal Castle as a template - would that be yours? :))

Sadly, there isn't much left to it and it was given to the government because no one wanted to cough up the money for the back taxes.

OH, it's gorgeous, very evocative...

Amazingly beautiful, even in its ruins! I do have a soft spot for castles. It is a shame you no longer have it, but I guess keeping it would have been way beyond everyone's budget. :(

I'm into the romance of ruins and Beautiful Decrepitude, so it makes me happy the way it is...
