The perfect way to start actually using a Dreamwidth account is obviously to post fic.
Cyteen fic, at that.
Five Board Games Ari Emory II Has Played and Disliked
1) Go. Planning out the shape of a confrontation ten or twelve steps ahead of the actual pace of the argument is neither novel nor relaxing.
2) Trivial Pursuit. Although, upon reflection, it might have been more successful if they’d had an edition newer than eighty years old.
3) Chutes and Ladders. The most boring fifteen minutes any four year old has ever spent.
4) Battle for the Hinder Stars. Somehow all of the ships had unlimited fuel and foodstuff supplies, and the strategic set up of the game didn’t even make a note of the independent Merchanter’s Alliance, which was bizarre, given who’d finally ended the conflict. Interesting concept, but a deeply flawed execution.
5) Chess. Uncle Denis said she was quite good.

I haven’t. I want to, but Cherryh tends to leave me an emotional wreck, and no series more so than the Union/Alliance, and Cyteen had me jittering all over the place and walking into walls when I read it, so I keep chickening out whenever I run across it in the library.
