Writing is incredibly slow right now, but I managed another 800 words this week on The Wooing of Raymond Kowalski. Here's 100 of them!

Ray yelled at Sandor’s retreating back for a beer. He wasn’t gonna let Fraser mistakenly think he’d given up all his bad habits. Instead of chiding him for rudeness, Fraser gave Ray an indulgent smile. His eyes shone in the candlelight and for a moment, Ray just stared. Goddamn, Fraser was good-looking.

Ray grinned back and shifted on the hard wooden seat of the ancient chair. He’d always aimed out of his league, but, like his mom said, he had a good batting average. And unlike those losers in the National League, Ray could pitch with the best of them.

Thank you once more, and always, for linking all those interesting things.

Loving the baseball metaphors in Ray's thinking, so much him. And also, yeah, beer is important and needs to survive any budding relationship.

Man, I don't have a dS icon any more...

You and your lovely daily links are really not helping me reduce the amount of space in my brain taken up by Zhu Yilong. Look at him biting his lip in concentration, oh dear.

I don't know the fandom for the snippet, but the voice is engaging and I'm always here for a good baseball innuendo!

I've seen the guitar clip before, but Zhu Yilong singing softly and playing the guitar is my favorite Zhu Yilong in the world. :D I can watch that over and over.

I had not seen the Lofficiel Homme interview translation yet. Thank you so much for linking that! <3
