Way-too-tardy fic rec

Continuing to follow summer_of_giles this year, I got reminded of a story from a couple of years ago, which I didn’t rec at the time (but did have the good taste to comment on at the story itself): “the Mirror Broke (But All My Friends Were Laughing)”, by 23Murasaki. The narrative made sense, the characters made sense, and it was just all-around entertaining. Worth checking out again, for anyone who’s interested in things like that.
