Oh, c'mon, it's a Five Things! They're supposed to be angsty. Besides, I'll never cause as much heartache as Shrift, when she did her Five Things That Never Happened to Dan Rydell. That absolutely killed me. And inspired me.
Besides, the last one is happy. As is the first one, even though he doesn't know it.
Yeah, but... Harry! Harsh, dude.
I haven't read shrift's SN 5 things story. Clearly this needs to be remedied ASAP.
Although you'll note I couldn't quite get to Jack/Harry. Well, let me rephrase: Harry couldn't quite get there, since Jack threatened to shoot him.
Poor Harry.
And yes, Shrift's SN 5 Things will break you into tiny little pieces. Gah.
Holy @#$@#$@#.
Persians, Hephaistion decided, must be born color-blind. There was no other way of accounting for the garish display of wrapping paper, streamers and party favors the palace eunuchs had set out for the little prince’s first birthday.

If he had to endure one more remark about his thighs, he was going to kill somebody.
runs screaming from the thread into the night...
Jesus, Betsy, warn a person. Sheesh.
Ohdeargod, Betsy. Where the hell did you find that?
t checks link without clicking Ah, I see. So much for the people who say LJ is where the good fic is...
Somebody linked to it on A.J. Hall's comment page.
Well, that's... wrong. At least it's well-spelled, I suppose.
What does it say about me that I'm actually somewhat more bothered by The Persians Do First Birthday Parties With Streamers And Party Hats than by Hephaistion Gets Pregnant? Probably that I've been in fandom too long, I suppose.
