Turns out my beautiful Robot series gift, Sonata for Robopsychologist, was written by

lirin! I'll be keeping an eye out for hir stuff.

As for what I wrote, well, I drabbled in Yoko Tsuno fic! Layers is the first English-language fic in the fandom that's on AO3. I wrote it for

xenakis, and I feel I fulfilled her prompt rather well.

What with application forms and all that, I had totally forgotten today was Yuletide Fic Reveal day! Then, I read

philomytha 's post on her gift, and I went, "oh!"

And, dear readers, that is how I received this gem:

Sonata for Robopsychologist (Robot series - Isaac Asimov)
G, gen
"A robot has been accused of breaking the First Law; Dr. Calvin is called in to investigate."

I am squeeing very, very hard! The Anon managed to replicate Asimovean style well; Susan Calvin sees the reason almost immediately, but we're left to guess. And it all made sense!

I'm a very happy penguin.

Get something more important to do (thesis, schoolwork, etc)
Procrastinate
Feel guilt over not doing Important Thing
Write fic / clean room / finish other work in an effort to keep guilt at bay
Finished fic!

Next step: proofreading!
(After the reveals, I might publish a short post on the writing process. The fic was something of a joy to write – both literally and ironically.)

Dear Yuletide Author,
