Thrive to spite them

Well, there's something for every taste out there. At least the website looks nice.

Been re-reading LoP, just got to the section where Narcissa's talking about having only slept with one man she trusted, who married her best friend. Said man was cheating on said best friend, in order to win a bet. "Queer as Scent" shows that Narcissa's best friend is Harry Potter's mother. Which insinuates that James Potter is not the nice guy one assumes. hmmm....

edit: white fonted for the sad souls who've not read Hall's lovely stuff but might want to

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

Yes! Hall posted a filk which detailed what happened in the Pendleverse, actually. Hmm... skips off, rifles through LJ entries

... here It's actually in the Comments section rather than the main entry, but I've left the link to the page as a whole because it's in response to Raincitygirl's comment.

James Potter - something of a scallywag in his youth, it appears. Not quite a cad, but...

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Out of curiosity, has anyone run across any well-written LotR fanfic which wildly violates canon by, say, putting Aragorn and Eowyn together?

t sap looking for a good fix

Well! Please, please, please don't let it be that Draco and Harry are related. That would be bad. Everyone says (in the fic) that Draco takes after the Veela side of the family, but he's got Lucius's hair.

Edit: And I'd be interested in some good Aragorn/Eowyn fic, too.

Did anyone ever find that Magneto/Wolverine, btw? Or is it like the Holy Grail of X-Men-verse slash fic?

The rest of LoP has reassured my that Draco is Lucius's boy. t and one of these days I'm just going to stop editing out that extra O that turns the name to Lucious. Even when I think about it, I spell it the wrong way. Or the Freudian right way

Still on board the Narcissa love train.

Movieverse? Nah, I found diddly.

If you want comic book stuff, I think there might be a few Rogue/Wolverine/Joseph (aka Erik aka Magneto) triangle things out there.

And, oops, I totally forgot to keep looking for Crow recs for ita. Must keep trying.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

Okay, I thought I wrote a post just now, but it's nowhere to be found. Grrr.

So! I went out of town for a week or so and look what happens! All kinds of things, and I'm just talking about this thread! I can't even begin to touch the other threads yet.

Kristen--I would recommend watching SV only to gain familiarity with MR's voice. It enhances the experience, trust me. Purrrr... A shortcut: You can download clips from here.

PMM--Woo hoo! Dan & Casey fic!!! whispers so that Kiba can't hear... Dan and Casey do too have sex. Their love is good and true and pure and real, but also with the "I know you better than anyone on the planet and turned down an amazing job offer just for the privilege of working alongside you, even though I knew it would most likely destroy my marriage, and even after it did, I never regretted a single decision that I made, including accompanying you halfway across the country" hot monkey sex. And that's just Casey's half of the story. Don't get me started on Danny.

As I said in Shrift's 'blog, I think that the release of the SN DVD's should spawn a Sports Night Fic Renaissance. This may finally be the thing that gets me to write. Somehow, Ewan McGregor pouring oil and glitter on his chest and shimmying completely out of his leather pants didn't do it. Xander's mile-long, fuck-me eyelashes and sexy, Pack-hyena smile didn't do it. Lindsey (though he still makes me gasp) and Angel's twisted BGL didn't do it. The Clex and the sexual revelation that is MR didn't do it, though the joy that is Platitude Porning came close. I almost, almost got there after Phallus in Pigtails sparked my imagination and I realized that there are about three SB fics out there worth reading, but no. But I think Dan and Casey's pure, true, intelligent, intimate, talky (sexy) love may do the trick.
