And almost sixty-five percent of that was actual compliment. Is that a personal best?

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

I like the whole thing, but I especially like the sheer nerve of this sentence: "We are all, to some extent, the sum of our dichotomies, but in Stark the inconsistencies have reached a cartoonish paroxysm. "

[Edit] Don't want to imply that this is the best thing about the work as a whole. it is freakin brilliant. But that sentence stands out for nerve, for sheer chutspa.

I've met the writer, and I can say authoritatively that she does not lack in chutzpah. *g*

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

I've been posting a few Doctor Who fic links over in Boxed Set. Is anyone interested in having me post them here? I've been limiting them to BS, because there seems to be less of a crossover between here and there than with other show threads. Except maybe SG-1/SGA. Then I got to thinking, there's a lot of folks watching the show who don't go into BS, so they don't get spoiled for other shows. Should I start posting them over here, too/instead?

Whaddaya think?

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Hee. I will do that, then.

This is an alternate season 4, so if you've seen season 3, this is perfeclty safe for spoilers: [link]

The same author has started an alternate season 5, spoilers all the way through the finale 4.13: [link]

I'll post more as I come across them. I've been stalking an LJ community for Whofic and they have some really excellent stories on a daily basis: [link]

One of the better articles I've read on the subject.

So I've watched Iron Man and after reading the fabulous Vanity Fair article fic, I've been munching my way through HackThis's fanfic (v. good). Anyone got any links to more Iron Man stories?

Or, for that matter, any Hancock stories?

(I loved that film, but it appears that the critics didn't.)

Fay, Dotfic on delicious has a nice list of IM recs.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

And she's an excellent writer with good taste, so while I've not seen IM yet, I'd guess her del.icio.us is a very good starting point for recs.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
