Okay, this is really funny. Especially if you read HP fic.
...or any fic, really. Heh.

This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.
Interesting that you assumed the gin was already in the cat dish before Baby Jesus got his holy little hands on it.
Either we're bad kitty mommies (and my cats' water dish? right by the liquor cabinet) or we forgot he could turn the water to gin.
Quick Rec question-- I finally got the proper software loaded on my Mac to watch vids, and need to get caught up in them. Do people have any they would recommend? I'd be especially interested in vids from ME shows, of course.
Unfortunately, a lot of ME-verse vidders took their work down a couple of months ago because of a kerfuffle (some fan giving a 'gift' of a burned copy of other people's vids to Joss and Nate Fillion in a FF convention without asking the vidders, I think.) Some are back up, but a lot of the good ones are missing.
My favorite vidder in ME-verse is probably sisabet. She and her sister Dawn run Head Tilt, where they used to house most of their vids. I see that their kick-ass Angel vid, "Cowboy", is still up, but some of my other favorites, i.e. "Last Stand", "Closer", and "Brass in My Pocket", are missing. Ditto the kick-ass Xander vid and a great vid about "Restless" the titles of which are escaping my brain for the moment. Damn.
Other vids I recommend;
Here's Luck's vids, a lot of which are Faith-centric, at Paper Cup.
Luminosity's got a bunch of vids on different shows at Eye Candy Works. They all rock. Especially "Southwest Voodoo".
Bonibaru's "Out of Gas" vid, set to Rufus Wainright version of Hallelujah, made me cry like a baby the first time I saw it. I'm not kidding.
Laura Shapiro took her vids down, but I'd beg and steal for someone to send you her Willow vid, "Transparent", and her gorgeous Due South vid set to "Lord, I Have Made You a Place in My Heart".
Headtilt.com is the website of dr. dawn and sisabet, two sisters who vid. sisabet, especially, is amazing.
here's luck makes excellent BtVS vids, too, although right now they seem to be unavailable because the server's down.
Laura Shapiro was the first vidder I ever watched. She's incredible. But she took her vids down from the public page, after a vid-stealing fandom scandal; I think that if you email her with the promise that you won't steal or redistribute her vids against her knowledge, she'll give you directions to the password-protected site.
t edit xpost. Heh.
Okay, here's another-- [link]
I'll look through my bookmarks for more....
and a great vid about "Restless"
"Clint Eastwood", Gorillaz?
xpost. Heh.
Great minds, yada yada. *g*
"Clint Eastwood", Gorillaz?
I think so. All my vids are at the home computer and I have mind like a sieve. It's the one with the refrain, "The future is coming on", showing transformation of each characters through the seasons. Kind of sad and creepy and wonderful all at the same time. Great vid.
I think the Xander vid was called "Twilight"--something.
Yup. That's "Clint Eastwood."
Lizard! Are you excited? *I* got excited just reading your Beep Me post.
I'm *incredibly* excited. Or, y'know. Yesterday after finally getting my parents to sign off on it I was ecstatic. This kind of happy is like being on drugs, like constant shocks of pleasure through my body.
But now *her* parents who had been behind it all along have suddenly decided they don't want to do it. Now we're working on them. (And I'm kind of going, Man, you can't do that, three days before I'm going to visit you, reverse what you'd been saying for months. I already took time off work, told everybody I'd be going, I'd almost bought the ticket. ... Meep.)
