Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

I'm also annoyed because I'm writing my goddamned paper about what makes fic so shiny-- that you're assuming authorative power over someone else's work. In coded academic language, of course, and I'm using Elizabeth Alexander, a poet, and the poem I wrote as fic for her poem, but it's the same ideas. And no, no, no article I've ever read addressed what I think are the most important issues raised by fic. I think it's doable, and it ought to be done, but I haven't seen it. That's because people are stupid.
Yeah. I'm really spiny today. Why do you ask?

Speaking of fic, I've finished all the A.J. Hall and the Tissue of Silver, and now I'm looking for more good Draco stuff. I don't want to dig undirected through the HP fan sites. Badly written teenagers in lust is not something I want to have stuck in my brain.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Check PolyRecs. We've got a couple Draco ones. Mostly Draco and Snape, I think. And...Resonant? posted a new one recently.

It's a dumb piece, but the writer's not a brilliant person, so.

I guess I'm just really in mourning that the sequel to Lust over Pendle isn't around yet. I really don't seen Draco/Snape--at least not in a good way.

This is a true thing, RL. There are important issues- like narrative authourity and the granting/not grating/abuse thereof- and maybe I should try and write about those things. But I can't be bothered, and I wouldn't do it very well anyway.

Is there a link to the PolyRec site? Searching Yahoo brought up some strange polymer sites that I don't think are right.
