Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

Fay, you got me hooked on it, and now there are these two monstrous final chapter-halves, and I should be working! And also I'm a little sulky because I find it difficult to root for the Draco/Blaise when there's a Harry in the picture. Because I am that annoying with my favorites.

My mind went to a horrible cosplay place...

That's funny, especially since a friend wants me to dress up as Lust for Dragon*Con this year.

Aw, crap. I thought they were final, but alas! There is one more chapter still to go, which means I must wait! Not a skill at which I excel.

Huh. Aside from FMA, which anime/manga have you been following?

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

Well, shit, Shrift, she's practically dressing as you.

Emily - I know, it's a bitch that it's not the last chapter. Another week to wait. For my part, though, I'm totally sucked into the pairing that you mentioned. I'm enjoying the whole element of the, er, other chap, but I'm evidently a sucker for this whole long-time-brewing business. Er. Yes.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

There is that. And also, the so-sexiness. I'm made a little nervous, though, by how totally at the mercy of events Draco seems to be throughout (I don't think that's a spoiler). He keeps reacting rather than acting, and at this point I'm half-expecting... well. More surprises.

Oh, and plus part of the problem is that I'm having trouble visualizing the other chap.

Er, or possibly the non-other chap. I can't quite tell which one you mean. Regardless, the one which I would, for obvious reasons, have trouble visualizing, as his gender wasn't even semi-canonically established until recently!

I have to rec Zahra (HackThis)'s fabulous almost-finished WIP Trade.

Fay, would I like this even if I've never seen Alias?

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

Jilli, yes. I didn't really follow the crossed-over person's arc on Alias and also never liked him, but I'm enjoying it despite that.

edited for clarity

Have you seen the artwork, Emily? Pretty.

Plei, I'll whitefont, because I was entirely not expecting it and was just tickled to death - I didn't even really register it was going to be a crossover initially, I was just reading it as an AU. But if you really want to know, it's Sark.

And it works wonderfully, imho.
