It was, and I have a vague memory that I did specify at some point (and
probably also moaned about it when I started habitually breaking that
deadline), but after all this time I'd have to go back and search to
find an actual example.

Psychovant is always lots of fun, combining fourth wall breaking with
obnoxious truth-telling

Oh dear crap on a stick, I hadn't recognised that. (If I wanted an excuse,
I could make up something about how since these are NTB stories taking
place in highjacked issues of an LNH series, they require an LNH guest
appearance to metatextually anchor it, or something, but the truth is
that I didn't realise I was doing it.) Hmm. Now I'm wondering if I
should do a 'straight' NTB story just to buck the trend...
