My last post here was my Dear Vidder letter for Festivids, and I am so thrilled to report that I got two gifts this Festivids! And one was for my much-beloved Odoru Daisousasen - a Japanese drama from 1997, which I first watched in the early 2000s. So it has been in my heart for very long, and at first I was just utterly delighted to have a gift for it at all. And then I watched it and it was perfect?!

Eraku nare! by BlueshiftOfDeath, videobaths
Fandom: 踊る大捜査線 | Bayside Shakedown (TV)
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Aoshima Shunsaku/Muroi Shinji
Characters: Aoshima Shunsaku, Muroi Shinji
Summary:

“Are you really alright with this?”

“…I’ll do my best. Because there’s someone at the top who feels the same as I do.

Muroi-san. Everyone in the field is pinning their hopes on you.”

Like. Wow. My immediate reaction was to write an entire essay about everything I loved about it. ♥



My second (!) gift was an utterly adorable vid for an utterly adorable show:

Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Miku/Tatsu (Gokushufudou), Miku & Tatsu & Kuroda Himawari (Gokushufudou)

Additional Tags: Fanvids, Family, Romance
Summary:

A fanvid set to Rather Be by Clean Bandit ft. Jesse Glynne.




I also ended up making five vids myself, but I'll probably make a separate posts for them! For now, just know that I had so much fun I ended up signing up for [community profile] fandomtrumpshate literally on deadline day (today!). I'm offering a vid for a song up to 4 minutes, and I'm willing to vid any new source up to 180 minutes (so one 3h movie, or a couple of Kdrama eps, or a bunch of anime eps). If it's a fandom I've vidded before and know enough not to have to rewatch I'd be more than happy to use the whole source, of course! But this way anyone who's wanted a vid for something in particular can get it without having to limit themselves to what I've watched.

In short: yay vids! I had so much fun with both my first and second (this) Festivids that I'm already looking forward to the 2026 edition.

Title: January
Author: Grey/Grey853
Fandom: Due South
Pairing: Benton Fraser/Ray Kowalski
Rating: Explicit
Tags: Male Slash, explicit language, explicit sex, alternate universe-canon divergent, case fic
Word Count: 40,274
Summary: In this next step in the Alphabet series, Ray and Ben start the New Year together. Ray wants to become a Canadian. Frannie wants to get married. Ray helps Ben with his case of exotic animal trafficking.

Snippet:

″So how much longer?″ Ray clapped his gloved hands together and stomped his feet. He could hardly feel them. ″It’s freezing.″

″It shouldn’t be much longer, Ray. Why don’t you head home? I’ll be there shortly.″

″Not going to happen. I’ll go home when you do.″

Ben smiled and leaned in for a quick kiss, but lingered instead. He rarely did that while on duty, but it was dark out and everyone else was kissing their way into the New Year. Ray gave as good as he got and that was plenty. Pulling back, Ben whispered, ″Happy New Year, Ray.″

″Right back at you. It’s a shame you have to work for a living.″

Ben chuckled. ″I rather enjoyed the fireworks to see in the new year.″

″Who needs fireworks when you’ve got the Northern Lights?″

″I have to agree that the Aurora Borealis is spectacular this time of year. Still, it was a rather excellent pyrotechnic display for the celebration.″

″Wasn’t bad. A little loud. I’m glad we left the dogs at home. Yuki would’ve had a fit.″

″He is rather sensitive to loud noises.″

″Which is ironic considering Dief is as deaf as a door nail.″

″Even so, Diefenbaker takes notice of Yuki’s reactions. Together they can be rather rambunctious. It’s best they’re at home.″

″I think I just said that.″

″So you did.″

Hi all!

I'm doing some minor operational work tonight. It should be transparent, but there's always a chance that something goes wrong. The main thing I'm touching is testing a replacement for Apache2 (our web server software) in one area of the site.

Thank you!

Monthly dS Art Digest (January 2026)

Alas, nothing new this time (that I could find)! But, I've been posting these monthly fanart digests here for five years now - that's 60 months - and this is only the second No New Art Month (the first was Feb 2023). Which is pretty amazing for an over 30-year-old fandom! 

If I simply missed something somewhere, please do post links in the comments!  

I'll drop my Tumblr dS art sideblog link here again, if anyone wants to view all the dS art I've been able to find on Tumblr (it's the archive link, which is as close as we can get to a gallery view; no login required though it probably pesters you for it for a while):
