fic_variations claim. I feel so accomplished. Maybe now I can do something else, and stop neglecting my other fandoms...
(Crackrabbit somewhere in the back of my head: But you said you were going to do that Looking In Looking Away follow-up after this...
Me: SHUT UP. SVU needs love too.)
Here it is. And now I go to sleep.
Also, happy 4th of July to all my friends who celebrate; happy Wednesday to those who don't.

fic_variations Prompt/Claim: “Light/Shadow”, Alexx WoodsAuthor’s Notes: I forget which website/fan resource says this, but I’m going with the version of events that has Alexx living away from her family (because her family and her job are not in the same place). I have no idea if this is correct, because I don’t think it’s ever been explained, but I’m rolling with it.

When Alexx bought her apartment in Miami, she made sure that the bedroom window faced west. The day dawned too bright here, and she didn’t want to wake up to the searing orange sun that early in the morning. Waking up was hard enough without that light in her eyes.

But the westward window let her enjoy the evenings that lasted forever. During the summers she got home before nightfall. The evening, the sunset, and the cool of the night were her own.
She left the window open as she lay in bed sometimes, and let the sea breezes flow in. It was one of the bright sides of living here.
She tried to remember those bright sides. They were her reminder of why she took this job. They made the days alone in her house that much easier.
