Heian Period
Brush Talk bystarlady (Murasaki Shikibu/Sei Shonagon)
"Vexing things--When something petty that one has said finds its way back to the ears of the person in question. Going on a retreat to a temple and finding someone already there whom you would rather not meet, but of course having made the preparations, you cannot simply leave."
I love the poem. There were some minor grammatical issues, noticeable due to the highly stylized narrative, but on the whole, it was an interesting read; I liked the awkward pauses, particularly. There's something about the pacing that intrigues me.
Oglaf
Four Seasons bytoft (Lesbian Mercenary/Snow Queen)
"Four seasons in the life of the hot lesbian mercenary." Context: Snow Queen, Snowbound (1, 2), Meltwater (1, 2, 3), Solstice (1, 2)
Thank you,mjules, for requesting this, and the anonymous writer for capturing the tone and humor of the series so well! XD The story really manages to showcase some of the mythology and fantasy of Oglaf without overwhelming the storyline. It can be a delicate balance and the author does it well.
