So,

turlough guessed the story that I wrote for

no_tags this time around, and so I promised her a timestamp of her choosing, from any fic I'd written.

This then, is

turlough 's ficlet -- set after Drums and Monsters but before the next story in the Hunt 'verse, still in progress.

( For there is nothing lost, that may be found if sought. -- Edmund Spencer, The Faerie Queene )

I rushed this one, pretty drastically, but I think it came out all right? The prompt was Frank/Gerard, post apocalypse or cyberpunk detective agency, and I went with both. Because both is good. I had a lot of fun with it, but since it was so rushed I might see if the prompter wouldn't mind if I expand and refine the story at some point.

Frank Iero, AI is the fic, which I will eventually post in my own journal and AO3. I haven't read very many of the other stories, for the same reasons my own was finished and posted at the very last minute (or past it, actually), but I've got my eye on a lot of very interesting looking posts -- they ought to keep me busy for a bit.

This was a good thing for me, I think! I haven't written in a long time, and I haven't FINISHED a story in even longer. This feels like a good push back into the swing of things. :D
