By the way, hearkening back to my earlier post--this doesn't spoil anything, since you can see on the Yuletide list of requested fandoms that no one asked for it--I did not get assigned to write for Richard Adams's The Plague Dogs. I decided, when I accidentally included it in the list, that rather than redo my list I'd just go read the book once and for all, even before the assignments came out, so I got it from the library.
I got through Ulysses easier than this. This is...guys, I have written some interesting metaphors myself in my time, some of them admittedly more purple than should be seen outside of crackfic, but this takes them all:
...Rowf's rump slid suddenly forward as smoothly as a turd from a healthy anus...
I can't even facepalm. It's too squicky. |

I had to work part of the holiday, so I just counted the time I did have off as a good thing, and took it easy rather than make plans with others. I did make time to make a yummy dinner for myself from scratch:
Chicken with sun-dried tomatoes in dijon-riesling-cream sauce
Sesame noodles
Spicy peanut butter soup
Tart green salad with proscuitto and asiago and warm balsamic dressing
Warm butterscotch-maple pudding
I love mixing cuisines. |

| Glee & etc. |
[Nov. 26th, 2009|11:04 am] |
I have not yet seen this week's episode, but: has anyone else found themselves just recording Glee and then fast-forwarding through it to (mostly) watch only the musical numbers? The actual "plots" have generally become deeply embarrassment (and otherwise) squick inducing for me, as much as I love the music.
While I'm talking about squick-inducing things, TCM is running a Fred Astaire marathon today, and Swing Time is on. I love this movie, not least for the completely awesome white dress with gorgeous full skirt that Ginger Rogers wears when she dances on the stairs with Fred. However! I believe that this movie is also the one which has Fred dancing in blackface. *facepalm* When I fell in love with this movie as a child, I didn't know any better, but now? Ick.
And while I'm here, I'd like to wish all who celebrate it a very Happy Thanksgiving! |

Author: lesyeuxverts
Characters: Severus Snape, Lily Evans
Rating: R
Warnings: character death
Themes/kinks chosen: symphorophilia
Word Count: 1,095
Summary: " Je suis le ténébreux,- le Veuf, - l'inconsolé, Le Prince d'Aquitaine à la tour abolie: Ma seule étoile est morte, et mon luth constellé Porte le soleil noir de la Mélancolie."
Author's notes: Huge thanks to bewarethesmirk for the beta, and thanks to the folks at the slashretreat_dc for the brainstorming help! I was heavily inspired by Nerval's El Desdichado, and this work owes a great deal to that poem (although I was very nearly distracted by the fact that he kept a pet lobster … but I managed to finish this in spite of that, so all credit goes to Nerval!)

Title: Spoils of War
Author: ciraarana
Pairing(s): Harry/Ginny, Harry/Severus; also mentions Ron/Hermione and other canon pairings
Rating: R
Word count: ~ 11,000
Disclaimer: This is a work of fanfiction set in the Harry Potter universe – all recognisable characters and settings are the property of J. K. Rowling and her associates. No copyright infringement is intended. No profit is made from this work.
Warnings 1: het, slash, violence, blood, sex, nastiness in the past, AU
Warning 2: Attention! This story is a carnivore! It has eaten five betas so far. Please, do not attempt to proof-read – you won’t make it past the second chapter and I’ll never hear from you again.
Summary: The war has changed Harry. His loved ones have to deal with that.
Author’s Note: In response to the_flic's pleading for more Snarry, I've decided to post this fic. It's not very good, I'm afraid. It was my first attempt at Snarry, written pre-DH. The essential idea behind the story - the idea that sparked this fic - isn't as well-explored and clear as I wanted it to be. I think. You might think otherwise.

| The Prisoner Remake? |
[Nov. 23rd, 2009|10:23 am] |
| [ | Tags | | | tv | ] |
| [ | mood |
| |  curious | ] |
Dear flist: I have 6 hours of The Prisoner sitting on my DVR at home, along with however many other hours of TV I normally watch. I will not get to watch it until I get back, at which point I will have many other things I could spend my time on.
My question is, as someone who has never seen the original, is the remake worth it? It's got Ian McKellan, who almost makes it worth it in and of himself for me. However, I've been hearing not-so-good things about the remake, albeit from fans of the original, to the point where I'm not sure even Sir Ian will be able to save it. Should I bother trying, or just delete from the DVR unseen? |

[Nov. 23rd, 2009|03:24 am] |
Title: Sex, Lies, and Audiobooks
Author: RaeWhit ( aka joanwilder)
Team: Snitch!
Genre: Alive and Kicking (EWE)
Prompts: Secrets and Lies, Coming Home
Rating/Warnings/Kinks: NC-17, mild bondage, whipping
Word Count: 48,000+
Summary: Belonging and deserving, needing and wanting—desires of the human heart that Severus and Harry must face when they're forced to the little village of Lochdubh to settle a very late codicil of Albus Dumbledore's will.
Author Notes: The village of Lochdubh and its inhabitants in this story are the property of BBC Scotland (from the series Hamish Macbeth). All things Harry Potter belong to J.K. Rowling et al. I'd be remiss if I didn't express my appreciation to Rudyard Kipling for his masterpiece, Captains Courageous.
This is my journal posting of my 2009 Mixed snarry_games fic. My heartfelt appreciation to jadzialove for the excellent beta reading, to whitecotton for help with Scottish-izing my Scottish, and to sestra_prior for her assistance with British questions.
This is posted in six parts; subsequent parts have been linked.
