Chronological-ish -- tongue in cheek in places :)
Molly Hatchet: Fall of the Peacemakers
Saxon: The Crusader
Ben E King: Stand By Me

Totally off topic: World Smoke Free Day
Today is World Smoke Free Day, or World No Tobacco Day, depending where you live. (Okay, for you non-Antipodean wrong-side of the world types, it's tomorrow.)

After a conversation with her Patron, Fiamme sets herself the task of working more closely with Catriona. For those who recall her early awkward attempts with the Mandrake-Feldane feud, this may smack of Pots and Kettles. Let the Character Arc commence! Warning: very mild profanity.

Details of Numbered Voices (inspired a bit by Miranda's old "Conversation" post) added post production. General gist (and their management) was already present.

From afar, Emma hees at your emo @doing. :-D
You paged Emma with 'If one can't enjoy a full scale wallow once in a while, there's no justice in the universe!
You paged Emma with 'Radiohead Creep is <3. Now I should listen to some Spice Girls or something.'.

Please, consider LJ-cut if you've got something lengthy, but also LJ-cut if you're going to be NSFW, and warn us evil from-work-browsing people. I already get Twitter and flickr blocked from work -- please don't add livejournal to their list...
