Hello all! I would like to recommend an ongoing AO3 story I have been enjoying, A Tale of Two Lallis. It's a multichapter, but the author says it is all done, and it is getting posted rather quickly.

The premise is very fanficcy: the regular Lalli we know from SSSS and a no-Rash-AU Lalli swap places for some odd magical reason. And yes, it's Emilalli, at least for one of the Lallis. But it's so charming and well done, with everyone (in my opinion) very much in characters. Plus, there are illustrations! It's clearly a labor of love, and I feel like it would have received a lot more love back when the fandom was still active. So I really wanted to give it a callout.

Hi!

Thanks, Grade E Cat! I'll dive into those soon.

And thanks for the tip, Tehta! Seems quite interesting!

So, I'm writing a story with Ensi and decided to review the previous one, finding that I hadn't published it on AO3, which leaves it just on the 2021's Advent Calendar. So I reviewed both parts and posted them here: Awakening

I hope you like it!

That was really nice, Grey! It's been a while since I last read something SSSS-related. Glad to see your writing is going well!

Grey, you already know I love it! Just as a minor thing, the knife is puukko, not pukko :)

Thank you, my dear!

So instead of a knife (puukko) Ensi had a decorated goat (pukko) with her! And she used that glowing magical goat to stab the monster!  ;D

It's so funny that I almost feel sorry to correct that... But it's done. Thanks!  <3

Oh, but when I write "pukko" on the magical oracle google translate it comes with "goat"... :(

Well, it was fun anyway! :)

Baaaa!
Fate gives all of us three teachers, three friends, three enemies, and three great loves in our lives. But these twelve are always disguised, and we never know which one is which until we've loved them, left them, or fought them.

In Gaelic the goat is pucca, poca or puca depending on the dialect.

We would never!

There is actually a tradition of kekripukki or the Kekri goat here. Kekri is the harvest / end of autumn festival that used to be maybe the biggest festival but was almost forgotten for a long time. But nowadays it seems to be having a comeback. Kajaani has arranged Kekri for many years now, including burning of a Kekri goat on the river running through the city. This one is intended to be torched! Picture of this year’s goat: https://yle.fi/uutiset/74-20003373

Apparently some people have already seen these from the Discord (which is so wild to me? like I'm perceived by communities I'm not a part of?? holy heck???), but I figured I might as well stick my couple of SSSS fics here:

These are lovely! Absolutely beautiful!

Our community or communities, whichever way you like to think of it/them overlap a lot so that the Forum, the Discord, AO3 and previously also the comment section are interlinked :)  I’m personally not on Discord (yet?) because when I tried I got confused. Should ask my son to help me get started. On AO3 I’m Jiiri, I left you a comment. And Tanist is Róisín.

AO3 has few enough fics that new ones get noticed pretty easily, and the person who did the adventure that inspired you was really excited to share. :)

I think they all bring something different and each is not going to be for everyone.

Discord is more active.  I like the forum structure better because with discord conversations get lost and buried really easily.  With the forum you can come back more easily.
