Just confirming that yes, Tamari's right After the exchange is finished, you can cross-post it wherever you like, so long as the fic is initially posted in full here.

Just to confirm, can I post it here and announce who it's for - right now? I'm a little paranoid... don't wanna make any mistakes...
