My first post in forever, but at least it's fic?

Title: It's Vulcan for Humbug
Author: nimori
Series: STXI
Pairing: K/S
Rating: PG. I'm terribly sorry.
Length: 3000
Warnings: Irreverence for everything. Again, sorry.
Summary: In which Jim is a multicultural holiday whore, Spock could do with a little less respect, and Russians invented Christmas trees.
Disclaimer: Not even remotely mine.
Thank you to amanuensis1, as always, who suggested the title 'A Turkey and Some Mistletoe' but then wondered if it might be too insulting to Jim. <3 Written for ksadvent2009.

Do NOT read the entries at fanficrants because it's just like a first year medical student ending up believing they've contracted every disease and ailment they've read about.

In addition, I created a Photoshop Elements Tutorial on the tools I used to create Moonlit.

As a new user, taste_is_sweet requested a Photoshop tutorial on the techniques I used to create my Detour To Bethlehem manips. Although I'm still taking baby steps when it comes to the many tools available in the Photoshop Elements, I'm happy to share what I've learned so far. I hope that some of it will translate across to other programs. Note: Keeping in mind this is for a new user, I'm likely to go into details some may think are no-brainers.

So keiramarcos commented on my Detour to Bethlehem art and icon post:

I could probably be seduced into writing wing!fic -- I sort of picture John with black wings though. ;-)-- and those sexy leather straps across his chest like that guy in X-Men. Just sayin'. ;-)

I'm afraid I couldn't manage the sexy leather straps, but I do have your black wings!
