Title: Revealing
Fandom: Magic Knight Rayearth
Rating: General
Length: 1100ish words
Content notes: None
Author notes: Umi/Clef, modern day/mundane AU - marriage of convenience. Just a snippet of 'oh, oh no'. Because I went elsewhere with the prompt so I could write fluff XD.

The looks on their faces were so worth going through with this whole thing.

Title: So, You Want to Know What's Next...
Fandom: none really
Rating: PG
Content notes: None apply
Author notes: The videos are from a youtube channel called 'Ask a Mortician', so they do deal with various topics around death and burial and other such things.
Summary: sort of a 'pic spam' but with videos - questions from kids, a video about methods of decay, questions about crows, post-life options, and a few others - proceed with caution if these are topics that may upset you or may not be to your liking.

Caitlin is very respectful in her discussions and answers, but she also has an odd sense of humor and she really enjoys her job. If you have any specific questions about any of the videos for specific squick or trigger instances, feel free to ask (PM is fine if you don't want to comment here) - if I don't remember, I'll be happy to scrub through the video to check for sure.
