LJ Cuts are Good Things. Especially to anybody who friends you and doesn't want your posts to eat a friendslist page up.
If you edit in html rather than rich text mode, use this helpful guide, which includes the wonders of LJ cuts and other such things. ;)

Thanks to Anity and Leto for beta-ing it.
Thoughts?

What does a LJ cut do?
For one, it means that it hides all the text put into the cut, so that you only see that by clicking on the post.
Take a look in here. Scroll down a bit. The entries with those bolded bracketed links are entries with LJ cuts. If you click on one of those entries, it will open it up, and you can see the full post. Until then, see how much easier it is to find individual posts? It's far less cluttered that way.
Also, on livejournal there is a thing called the friends page, where you can see all the posts made recently by your friends. Without an LJ cut, a post like yours is truly huge on the friends page, and requires a lot of scrolling to go past. It's considered polite to put long posts behind a cut.
Also, you use LJ cuts if you are saying something or using images that a person may find distressing or are not work safe. Then you use a cut, and warn outside the cut for what is in it.
Nice job. Very nicely killed.
...um. I don't really have much to say... I was entertained, which is good...
Oh, yes. Looking forward to seeing what happens~ somehow, I get the feeling these two are stuck, no matter how they try. ^_^
Thanks for the praise. I'm working on the next, much shorter one right now. Want to beta it?
And that's not entirely certain. Mostly it depends on whether or not Alex goes crazy or not in the next two missions...
I'd love to, but what's the fandom?
