Other notes:

• I owe giandujakiss, laurashapiro, and rilina many many thanks for beta, and so many people a debt of gratitude for cheerleading that I'm afraid I've forgotten someone: all of the above, plus ellen_fremedon, meganbmoore, sol_se, and springgreen.


• Seriously, I'm afraid I've forgotten someone. If it was you, please remind me!


• You can watch Nirvana in Fire here.

Lyrics
Undo this storm, undo this storm
Undo this storm and wait
I can't control withering wonders
Flowers that lose their shape

I lie awake and watch it all
It feels like thousand eyes
I lie awake and watch it all
It feels like thousand eyes

I'll be the calm, I will be quiet
Stripped to the bone, I wait
No, I'll be a stone, I'll be the hunter
A tower that casts a shade

I lie awake and watch it all
It feels like thousand eyes
I lie awake and watch it all
It feels like thousand eyes
I lie awake and watch it all
It feels like thousand eyes

I am the storm, I am the storm
I am the storm, so wait

I just watched the show for the first time in September, and I've been slowly catching up on the fanworks. This was linked in #DecRecs on Mastodon.

I can't stop watching this! I love everything about it. The teacup/bell moment is great, but I think my very favorite thing is the way the Grand Princess enters in the middle of the crescendo. The tension is unbearable! Just like the show. And the end, with MCS telling us he's the storm, and then fading out. It's just. Holy cow. I can't, I cannot even, it's so good, I'm going to go watch it again right now.
