YOU GUYS. I got two completely kick-ass stories!
The first is an absolutely breathtaking piece of Fallen London interactive fiction called Exile's Rose. This is spectacular, true to the game but so unique. Everything in it is intricately well-planned and intentional. The descriptions are beautiful and I sure can't complain that it features my favorite Once-Dashing Smuggler. It's a little bit heartbreaking. I wanted it to go on forever.
Also! starfall is backstory on the Witch of the Waste from Howl's Moving Castle. It's a really smart story not just because of what's in it, but because of the way it's written. The author went to great pains to frame it in the same way DWJ frames Sophie's story. It's really gorgeous. Considering what a sucker I am for backstory, I couldn't have asked for anything better.
Go read them! Or play them, as the case may be.
