Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Both! t /unhelpful

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

Yeah, both.

Also?

Seething.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I have to carry on my luggage, though.

Okay, you guys help me decide. One has shorter sleeves and is more cleavage-y, with a fairly tame black and white print. The other has longer sleeves and a higher neckline, but is a few inches shorter and has a brighter blue print.

Normally, you know, Club Vivid, cleavage, but I don't know! I am torn.

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

Dude, cleavage. Cleavage is always the win.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Which one makes you feel more like yourself and comfortable?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I had to try them both on again. I like them both, but I think the blue one feels more Club Vividy to me.

I edited my post because the "like yourself and pretty" was too redundant

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

::seethe, seethe, seethe::

Cleavage!

Or, blue. Blue is good. Go blue.

Always Anti-fascist!

Ok, new line, I'm emphatically NOT down with Presidential RPF. I mean, it's nice to have an attractive Pres. again and I hope that he and Michelle have a satisfying intimate life(and I know he and Rahm are very big with the touching, with each other and Pelosi,) but it's not even that I'm a prude...I just want to pretend that they think solving the nation's problems is the biggest orgasm of all. I mean, I've seen what the Mayor did on The Wire so I kind of know it's not true, but I'd like to believe that and I can't if I read them sneaking off into some conference room to shag like rabbits.

"I make mistakes, but I am on the side of Good," the Golux said, "by accident and happenchance.” – The 13 Clocks, James Thurber

Firstly, Erika, that sounds absolutely awful. Not even awful enough to read for snark value, just...dreadful.

Secondly, I dimly recall that there's a way to change the appearance of a fic in lj so that it magically takes on the appearance of your own journal. But I've been trolling through the FAQ listings and can't find out how to do it. (There's a story where the page is divided vertically; the left side is a medium green, the right side is dark green, and the text is in white and goes across both sides.) I just can't torture myself enough to read it as is; is there some way to convert it to the traditional (but oh so readable) white background/black text? I was hoping someone here would know how to do this.

Thirdly, I came across a listing for a story called...drumroll please...The Vampire Doyen. The author's note is: "Doyen is French for Dean." You might think this is a frisky Victorian-era erotica about randy schoolgirls crossed with a Twilight-type vampire as the headmaster, but you'd be wrong. It's our very own Dean Winchester. (She says it's written for "My own sick pleasure. I love vampires, love Sammy and love Dean..what could be better than tossing all that together in a salad of sensuality? [smirks]"). Another one that I can't bring myself to read, even for the snark value.
