So, about that "life" thing...

No, I'm not dead yet! Been spending the better part of the week threshing out some rough translations for the Baccano! people over at IJ, and good lord, once you start you never stop. It's like the evil Chinese characters stick in your retina and muck around with the inside of your head until---

*cough*

*cracks knuckles* I probably owe people three thousand fics or something, but I'm just going to take the rest of the week easy and write as the words come. May is going to be one hell of a ride in terms of challenges - 0TP! Springkink! Examinations!

Have some music, flist: a few tracks by The Hush Sound. Very pretty stuff; they're like Fallout Boy and Panic! at the Disco added together with the synth removed. Wine Red, Lions Roar and City Traffic Puzzle.

Baccano!: Growing Up Is Still The Most Fun That You Will Ever Have (Claire, Gandors)

Title: Growing Up Is Still The Most Fun That You Will Ever Have
Rating: G
Characters: Claire, Luck, Keith, Berga
Summary: Because Claire had to have grown up into the balanced individual he later became somehow. Everything he learnt, he learnt from his brothers.
Warnings: Mmm, invented backstory, ho.

2154 words of crazy almost-not-quite mafia-family fluff with a pretentious title to boot!

( 'You know, your dad is really weird,' Claire said; it was one of the first things that the angry-looking redhead kid said to Luck. )
