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

I'd quite like to read Father Ted Slash. But then I have an unhealthy degree of affection for Father Dougal.

So I'm still Ple, then. Cool.

Who's he with, Fay?

Not Harry, at this point. But I'm trying to get them together, or at least lay the groundwork. Pesky boys with their pesky not liking each other-ness. Um. And, despite my best intentions and my qualms about writing the HP porn (they have to be 17 at this point, I'm fairly sure, much as I'd like them to be 18) I seem to have just written The Big Gay Sex. It's far more coy and seemly than my Big Gay Sex stories in other fandoms, but - um. Oh, again, dear.

But I just found myself so very overexcited by the idea - and I've started a little zeitgeist thing, because I told Zhara about my plans involving school ties and a vaguely St Sebastian-pose, and this led to Zhara writing tie-centric bondage and Diva getting thoroughly carried away with the St Sebastian thing. But it has also led to some sizzling porny goodness in the Tissue of Silver- verse, to follow immediately after the climax of the snogfic. What with them both being card-carrying grown ups and all, her story is considerably more detailed than mine. Keep your eyes peeled.

(I'm not suggesting, incidentally, that the notion of using school ties in the HP shaggage is new - I have absolutely no doubt it's a hoary cliche, but I haven't read widely enough to know. It's just that there's suddenly a lot of it going on in the folks I do read.)

From what I've read- which isn't that wide, but covers some- ties in HP are pretty much like swords in LotR, ie, the easiest Freudian-type-thing going. And like a stake in the Buffyverse, they're, um, good.

And by good I mean Freudian, and by Freudian I mean porn.

And speaking of HP, can someone direct me to a crash course in 'who the hell is x?' for the Rowlingverse, please?

It seems I'm writing HP in the course of slashing my slashers, and I don't know who Ginny or Pansy are.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I'll just sit over here and grit my teeth. Stupid F2Fs... At least I get Trudy and the Haligonistas. And then Teppy for NYE.

Oh, sweetest, I *wish*! But all the plane fares from Cincy to Halifax just have cruel laughter before the dollar sign.

Not that you caught on film, at any rate. *g*

Yeah, I wish somebody had caught you kissing Teppy on film.

Hec's brain would go boom.

Shhh, ita. Don't give away the whole slavery-ring plan. I've almost got Teppy in my clutches.

You wish...

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

Ginny is the Weasleys' only girlchild - she makes a fleeting appearance in HPatPS, then attends Hogwarts in HPatCoS. She's the one who gets tangled up with Tom Riddle's journal, poor dear. Canonically she has a terrible tongue-tying crush on Harry, bless her little ginger heart.

Pansy is Pansy Parkinson, a Slytherin lass.

So if I was heading for, say Ginny/Pansy, I might be considering the evil Slytherian Pansy pulling Ginny away from her crush on Harry?

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

Yep. You could totally build on the Bad Things little Ginny did whilst she was under the influence of Tom Riddle, to make her feel like she should have been sorted into Slytherin. And Harry's continuing obsession with Cho and his determination to see Ginny as a little step-sister-type-person wouldn't help.

This is FUTUREFIC we're talking about, yeah? Because I can't get the idea of ickle!Ginny out of my head. But there's only a year between them, so it's not squicky in an agegap way, in the manner of t shudder Snape/Ginny t /shudder

It's FUTURE!FIC alright. Ginny's 17, roughly.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

Hmm. Ickle!Ginny badness is looking kind of good today, I have to say. You know, because as long as they're the same age, it's okay.

I say, and accept my very-hellbound status.

It's kind of got to be FUTURE!FIC because what I'm actually aiming at is Ginny/slasher, Pansy/other slasher. And I don't know if they're as cheerful about thier status as residents of Speical Hell as we are.
