Thrive to spite them

I really like the story JZ. I hope you write more because I like your take on Stede.

For some reason I have been reading SPN fanfic. But only certain types and then I started reading Down to Agincourt and this is pretty much all I've done the past few days.

I haven't watched Supernatural in a long time. I'm not really sure why I have this sudden craving for it but here I am. I barely remember certain things.

The weirdest thing is that at some point when reading this ( but not in any of the other fics I've read) I suddenly started hearing Eliot Spencer instead of Dean's voice (although most of the time Dean sounds like.generic male voice in my head and Cas only sounds like Cas at certain times and the rest of the time he is male voice #2. ). And then I started picturing Eliot instead of Dean for some of it. But that was back in first part of the series and it hasn't happened since. I kept wondering if maybe Cas would.somehow morph into Hardison . Which didn't happen and I'm a little disappointed my brain couldn't make that leap.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

A fic I'm not about to write because I have zero interest in spending time inside Izzy Hands's head to the degree it would take to write it, but one I would read the crap out of if someone else wrote it and if anyone already has then I need to read it right now: OFMD/Ted Lasso crossover in which Coach Beard inexplicably turns up on the Revenge (maybe he fell through a wormhole sometime during the events of "Beard After Dark"? Anyhow, he's not only the Richmond crew member most likely to have something like that happen to him but also the one most likely to look around, shrug and roll with it) and has Opinions about Izzy and about how to be someone's steadfast right-hand man while also maintaining some healthy fucking boundaries. Even one. Just one boundary to start with. It doesn't have to be any bigger than your toe, but you gotta start somewhere because you are headed over a goddamn cliff, my friend.

I love that vids with CXGF audio are a thing. There's so many songs that work.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Did any of you catch the latest HP fic from astolat last month? I finally got around to reading it, and although I am not really much of an HP fan, I liked it a lot. [link]

Not fic, but utterly delightful OFMD/Lilo & Stitch crossover art.

Not fic exactly, but hilarious: Our Flag Means Death if it was a BestofNextdoor neighborhood

From the same person who did a mega-thread of OFMD characters as medieval marginalia. This is the kind of ultra-niche fandom shit I've been craving!

Fan vid more than fanfic --

[link]

This is: The Chain by Fleetwood Mac but ao3 titles ... so it's images of fic titles to go with the lyrics or what is going on with the music (like bass or cymbals or sweet guitar riff). heavy on the OFMD fic because the vidder is a big fan.
