Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

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.

If I only had a brain...

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.

Hephaistion, who always resisted the party favors Alexandros tried to foist on him, recoiled at the sight of their son in a gilded pink party hat in the conical Persian fashion

Oh, just one more...

“Fuck you,” muttered Hephaistion. It had taken him six months of intense training to get his body back to the lean hardness it had had before the pregnancy, and three more to where he could have sex without obsessing over his sutures or imagined stretch marks. If he had to endure one more remark about his thighs, he was going to kill somebody.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

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.

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty

Oddly, the part that's bothering me is that I don't think Hephaistion would have known what colour-blindness was.

googles Yes; John Dalton is credited with discovering/describing it in 1794 or thereabouts.
