everyone's so gaga over CK in Leverage right now
I wish I wasn't so distracted by his hair.
May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Oh, I so understand. I've not seen Leverage, but any time I see CK I'm distracted by the hair. It's such a pity. You know, from my own pov. Clearly he likes it, so that's nice. But I'm not a fan, and it does distract me.
Meanwhile, could anyone beta me a Dean/Castiel thing I'm writing? Given that I've only seen 4 1/2 episodes of SPN Season 4 at this point? Pretty please?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Fay, I'd be happy to help out. Profile addy is good.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Absolutely, Fay. Profile addy works.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Totally random fic rec request:
Matilda has been gorging herself on Miyazaki movies for the past few weeks, and I'm getting more and more entranced with Spirited Away: the richness of the characters, the vividness of the world of the bathhouse, the glimpses of other worlds, other stories (the shadow people on the train, the two figures waiting patiently at one crossing as the train zips past, the shadow girl playing hopscotch at one of the stations. Imagining what sort of young woman Chihiro grows up to be, wondering if she and Haku ever meet again and if she recognizes him, wondering if Lin ever gets her train ticket away from the bathhouse and where she goes to).
It's just such an incredibly rich, detailed world, and I want more. So, to prevent myself from blundering into some badfic horror, I'm asking all y'all, (a) does Spirited Away fic even exist, (b) is any of it as shimmeringly good as the movie, and (c) if the answer to (b) is yes, who's written the good stuff and where does it live?
Thanks!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Huh. There's none at the Yuletide archive, so there goes my first idea.

I know there is some out there, JZ, but for the life of me can't recall where. I reckon Yuletide would be a good place to go looking, though.
eta (x-posted with Dana): Nope, I stand corrected - just checked it out and there's none. But I'm sure I've read some at some point - not brilliant, but not bad. Damn. I'll have a look around.

A friend of mine has a couple of SA fics here.
"Hand of Sorrow" fits the subject of one of your wonderings fairly well.

So, in case you're interested and not on LJ, I have committed SPN fic:
Largely All About Castiel, because I think he's fab. But the next one's about Ruby, once I've finished it.
