I'm a little late, shocking I know ;)

I've been trying to make myself actually get involved with my fandoms this year instead of just lurking everywhere so in the spirit of that... 1. Fic - Anything Lily/Kaya. Because I can't recall ever reading one (though I could be wrong) and that twisted part of me that loves off the wall pairings NEEDS to see this in print. 2.
