Me about a month ago: Oh, hey, the AnimeTwineowa website has way more hits than I was expecting it to just now. By like one or two hundred. Neat. Wonder why that is...?

Me in the shower tonight: ...Wait a minute. What if Yuletide? 😳


I mean, I didn't write down when the hit count passed 1500 (though I definitely did a little dance in my seat), so I can't check dates, but uh. It's over 1800 now? And at least a few people may have looked at AnimeTwineowa with the hypothetical possibility of fanfiction in mind...

(Also, the last time I looked it was a good hundred less than the current number. And I think it only broke 1200 during AI weekend? Anyway, somehow, some way, my/our little game is apparently gaining some tiny bit of popularity!)

I didn't nominate any of it and I haven't looked to see if anyone else did, and—considering I only managed to do anything more writing-like than daydream about it for three days in November—this was not a bad decision, but I did ask if I'd want to nominate individual stories within AnimeTwineowa or the game as a whole (answer: individual, unless I wanted to nominate the frame story of the convention itself), so

Ooh. Related at least tangentially, you know Clockwork Under City Lights? I've got a story percolating presently, it's a steampunk thingie, and one of the characters is I'm pretty sure someone who makes the actual constructs as a hobby. Not as a fandom thing, since the anime doesn't exist in that universe (there's a century's difference and more between their when and ours, for one), but a genuine interest. A stained glass and gearwork, flight-capable griffin the size of a teacup, for instance. XD Can I get away with that, since the anime concept is now wound into Anime Twineowa?
