I imagine any number of people could have done it and would want to :-). I would myself had I known about it. Congrats! And yay for the mystery nominator too.

[firethesound]

Aw, thank you! <3

I want to find whoever nominated me and kiss them. I'm just so flattered!

[sophie-french.livejournal.com]

Well done!!! You totally deserve it!!! Both these stories are amazing! :D :D :D

[firethesound]

::flails:: Thank you so much, darling.

Are we in the same time zone now?? :D

[sophie-french.livejournal.com]

Not yet! :P We're leaving Saturday! :D

[writcraft]

Congrats! Very well deserved :D

[firethesound]

Thank you so much! <3

[eidheann_writes]

Woo!
And I agree with everyone else: very much deserved.

Congratulations! A worthy candidate indeed. :)

[firethesound]

Aw, thank you so much!

[birdsofshore]

Well done you, you darling.

I keep meaning to email and say, I am sorry I am too cowardly to read Stop All the Clocks. But I know what your happy fics do to me - I think a sad one might break me.

[firethesound]

Oh, thank you! <3

And you don't have to apologize, I knew when I wrote it that it wouldn't be something everyone would want to read. I suppose I'll just have to write you some smutty 8th year fic so you can read that instead, hm? XD

[birdsofshore]

*wide eyed and innocent* Ah, you don't need to write me any smutty 8th year fic, because I already just got the BEST smutty 8th year fic written for me. I wonder who wrote it? Gee, I'd like to thank them.

*snicker*

I'm still waiting for DINOROTICA COSPLAY, though :DDDD

[firethesound]

Oh, lol, I'd completely forgotten about that lovely fic some wonderful writer who clearly likes you a lot did for your prompt. I was just thinking that smutty 8th year is a nice genre and I have a smutty 8th year series I've been neglecting and really should finish up at some point soonish. XD

DINOPORN FIRST, THOUGH.

Speaking of dinosaurs, I have something for you. I'll message it. :D

[playing-perfect.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't argue with that, it's one of the most heartbreaking fics I've ever read, but there is so much beauty and love and humour and wonderful detail in it too, seriously it's brilliant. I would never in a hundred years have read it if I hadn't offered to britpic it, but although I cried my eyes out - and I don't usually cry in fics, possibly because I avoid such tragic ones, lol - I don't regret reading it. I want a happy version of it with the same Harry and Draco sooooooooo much, because if it had a happy ending it might actually be my favourite fanfic of all time, certainly in the top five. As it is I'll never read it again, but... yeah, if you can stand being broken there's so much wonderfulness.

[birdsofshore]

Augh, you're killing me. I love fire's writing SO MUCH, and I know I am completely missing out, but I... just can't. I can't. Maybe one day I will be old and tough (well, oldER and tough) and then I will read it, and weep.

[playing-perfect.livejournal.com]

Bet you're glad now that I got there first on the britpic, LOL. If I hadn't I confess I'd be just the same as you. The icon sums up the way I was reading it because no way do you not know what's going to happen, it's just a case of which flashback is the final one.

But damn it's so good. If and when you read it, should that day ever come, you'll see what I mean about the utter wonderfulness too - which admittedly just makes the tragedy of it even harder to bear. So on reflection... yeah, the same story with a happy ending would be the ideal :-D

[birdsofshore]

I think I had a lucky escape. XD I was an idiot for offering, but I'm just a sucker for fts fic ;-)

[icmezzo.livejournal.com]

Looking forward to reading BOTH of these. I'm sorry I've fallen behind but both are definitely on my radar. Congrats to you. From what I hear they are well deserved. Can't wait to dive in and find out exactly how amazing they are.

[firethesound]

Aw, thank you so much! I'm so far behind in reading as well, at this point it feels like I'll never catch up. XP

[anemonen.livejournal.com]

Oh, this is SO deserved!! Congrats:D
They were both totally amazing, and so very different. I'm in awe that you can write two fics that are almost opposite and still make them both so perfect and engaging. You ought to get a special award nomination for that!!! Stop All The Clocks made me sob, like shaking sobbing, and I'm not sure that has happened before. It was lovely though, and I'm so happy I read it even though it was painful.

[firethesound]

Oh, this is such a lovely compliment! I definitely try to write different things, and it's so wonderful to hear that both can work so well. And thank you for reading Stop All the Clocks even though it made you cry. <3

[avrildulac.livejournal.com]

Congratulations on your nominations! You totally deserve it! I've rec'd these two stories to a number of friends because they're both so wonderful. *hugs*

[firethesound]

Thank you so much, and thank you for the recs as well! <3

[barefacedbandit.livejournal.com]

Congratulations! These nominations are so well deserved, both fics are works of art. I can't think of Stop All The Clocks without welling up.

[firethesound]

::flails:: Thanks, darling. You left me such a lovely comment on Stop All the Clocks, I'm still working on responding to comments but I really appreciated the comment you gave me and I read it many times before reveals. <3

[barefacedbandit.livejournal.com]

Hahah, I left you an incoherent comment on Stop All the Clocks. That fic was devastating. You deserve all the praise forever for it :D

[dicta-contrion.livejournal.com]

Congratulations!! Both excellent, excellent stories. So exciting!!

[firethesound]

Thank you, thank you! :D

[capitu]

Congratulations! They are brillaint stories. <3

[firethesound]

I'm so glad you liked them, thank you darling. <3
