HLH_Shortcuts '20 is releasing

[brightknightie]

hlh_shortcuts released the first three stories from its 2020 AO3 collection on New Year's Day night. That leaves us fourteen to go! Traditionally, the stories all release anonymously, a few at a time, and then there's a guessing game before the authors are revealed.

One of the first three stories released happened to have been written for my sign-up: "between a spark and lightning" (Teen, gen, 4K words; Michelle/OMC, Cierdwyn; warning for violence).

When I commented on it, the author replied that she'd found my sign-up "definitely a challenge." But she persevered and generously invented a future for Michelle ("Rite of Passage"), my favorite one-shot guest star, and coincidentally echoed my own head-canon (other people's, too?) that Cierdwyn ("Take Back the Night") was Michelle's second teacher, able to give Michelle an important dose of focused tough love that Amanda was not.
