Come on down and show us your awesome! (Or someone else's, if you feel so inclined; it's been a while since the more usual sort of thread promotion.)

I am not going to self-pimp--drowning the bar in OOMs is probably enough self-promotion, neh?--but I do want to take this chance to bow down before the awesomeness not only of my amazing co-conspirators past and present, but also everyone who engaged/will engage with the set-up and aftermath, or even just feel the ripples without ever bothering to read it.

Stuff like the prom dress shopping and Liz and Cal's reactions are part of what makes these plots worth doing--something that has roots in the game, and not just fic. Sometimes those roots are old--it's incredible how one of Anthy's thread from the Academy plot ended up foreshadowing a major plot point here--but some of them are really fresh and new.

This goes beyond this thread and all the way back to the people who tagged Susannah when I first brought her back from semi-retirement seventeen months ago. This plot has been in the working ever since, inch by inch and nail by nail, and everyone who has threaded, read, or just listened to me run off at the mouth has been a part of it.

Special thanks go to Viv, for bringing Bela's thievery into play, and Adiva for bringing Charles Wallace in for a short but amazing role; Batya, for talking DT mythology ENDLESSLY with me, Rym for beta-ing several key threads in Rose's development, to Sweeney, my partner in crime lo these many years, and to all the people who helped me keep my head together when RL went seriously off the tracks.

(I also really appreciate the people who have and continue to play around with me in the alternate future for Susannah's descendants; it's really helped me clarify my thoughts about Rose in particular and American gunslingers in general, and been a lot of fun to boot.)

A lot has changed for me in the last year and a half, but I've told my story to the end, and that's something. I've never sunk this much time and effort and planning into anything, and I feel like it's really paid off. Thank you, Milliways. :D

...and, duh, Lynne, for, uh, writing a big chunk of it and everything.

I was trying to extend my thanks out beyond the immediate circle of people who co-wrote with me, since they should know they're awesome, but in retrospect it just seems like I'm an asshole, so *clarifies*!
