 I do have a new fic that I've been putting up on Patreon for a while and I'm now getting to editing and putting up on AO3. (yes, that run-on sentence definitely inspires confidence in my fiction. :P ) 

It's Young Avengers, Billy/Teddy, (explicit eventually, no archive warnings apply) from the prompt 'what if Teddy was the Roswell Alien.' 

The result: Green Man From Outer Space. 

Cris-art did the world's most amazing cover art for it:



I'll start proper update announcements here, tagged 'ardatli writes'. 

End of term ARGH phase is almost over. I have an edited manuscript to finish up and return, and 12 papers left to mark. I can do this. 

Everything got derailed earlier this week when I caught a student with the wikipedia-copy-paste routine. And not just wikipedia, but the Encyclopedia Britannica, and the Met museum, and a handful of other websites. At that point, I'm all... dude. Just put in the quotation marks and the footnotes and call it a crappy essay instead. I really don't get why they go to so much trouble to pull off a cheat, when it would probably be a lot less work to actually write the goddamned paper in the first place. 

And naturally it turns out that they've been busted for things like this before, which means the entire case has to get escalated to the senate, get presented to a tribunal by the Academic Honesty officer, etc etc. ugh.

This is really not what I wanted to spend my time on.

 

Nothing here yet, but I'll get around to importing some tumblr stuff once term is over.
