Seriously?

I appeal to the Americans on my flist to tell me that this is not the case. Please, God. We've just been told that there's another security alert at Edgware Road, and I'm frankly less worried about that. I don't care whether the US requires Brits to get a visa to come over - I just won't bother coming over - but wasn't this exactly the same rhetoric used in the 'liberation' of Afghanistan and Iraq?

Scary as.

Alias BETAfic: The Tale of the Dead Princess (1/1)

OK, my Russian knowledge sucks. *headdesk* And it is far too late to call Erica and ask her thoughts on this, although I will eventually do it. So, consider this a preview.

Written for yahtzee63's challenge of Jack, Irina, the Alps and "You're the only one in this family who hasn't risen from the dead."

I... may have failed. *hangs head*

yahtzee63, my dear, as penance, pick another prompt and I shall try again. I just couldn't write anything for Jack for this, it had to be Irina.

Except that I think that it went horribly wrong. *sigh* It is late. Must get to bed. But - there is it. *points*

A/N: the title is inappropriate, I know. It should be The Snowmaiden. But that sucks. So I'm butchering myths and legends with impunity, moohoohaahaa. I hope that the various references to Russain customs are self-explanatory, but if not, ask and I shall endeavour to explain. *crosses fingers*
