Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

If you like procedurals and a slow burn relationship, Jane/Lisbon of The Mentalist has its charms. I've written some stuff in that fandom that I am pretty proud of, and my favorite authors list on FFN features some very good writers. [link]

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

There is tons of Brienne/Jaime. Found some funny light stuff that was good for what I was looking for.

I went browsing on AO3 the other night wide search anything written in last 7 days. 1) there's a lot of media I have never heard of. 2) why is someone writing Zootopia fic? 3) I am such a newb to all this still - Character/YOU or Character/READER wha? how is there dialogue - I just don't brain that way. 4) Wrong pairings are wrong - Arrow fic should NOT have Diggle/Thea - NO NO NO.

Shut up about #2, I totally ship the bunny and the fox. But I haven't looked for fic, because of obvious reasons.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I totally ship the bunny and the fox.

I haven't even seen Zootopia and I ship the bunny and the fox.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

I also ship the bunny and the fox, but no way in hell will I go read Zootopia fic. Nuh. Uh.

3) I am such a newb to all this still - Character/YOU or Character/READER wha? how is there dialogue - I just don't brain that way.

There are a LOT of us who don't brain that way. I still side-eye Character/YOU or Character/READER fic really hard. Just write a self-insert Mary Sue the way the rest of us did back in the day!

Woe to the fucking wicked.

There is also apparently a...thing where there's a standard character string used (y/n or something like that) so that readers can search and replace to put their names in.

I feel like one of those "uphill both ways, barefoot, in the snow" old timers.

Oh, so THAT'S what I see on Tumblr. I had no idea what that was.
