I have some variety for you today, which reflects just how random my thinking is right now.

Harry Potter

On the Last Day of Our World by Sansa -- Harry/Draco

Long, plotty, angtsy romance. As soon as I started reading this I knew I'd read it before and forgot all about it. It was a pleasure to read again.

Doctor Who

The Final Countdown -- Daleks rock out on YouTube

Just stupid and funny. It's vids like this that make me thankful for YouTube.

Supernatural

Oath by elementalv -- Dean/Castiel

It’s not that Castiel particularly wants to have sex.

Bert & Ernie Are Gay (Not On My Watch) by justabi -- Dean/Castiel

If Dean has to make like Bert and Ernie to keep this one goddamn promise to a guy who full on rebelled against God for him, well, then fuck it. Bring on the Muppet sex.

Twitterpated by rain_dances -- Dean/Castiel

Castiel insists that Dean and Sam start using twitter as a means of communication (seriously).

we got some work to do now by atimi -- Many pairings.

SPN/Scooby Doo crossover; rated NC-17; a multitude of pairings (but no bestiality. promise.)

Those last two are pure crack and absolutely must be read by everyone. Many thanks to kitty_poker1 for linking me up.

And now a request! Does anyone have any more recs for Dean/Castiel or Sam/Castiel or Sam/Dean where they are NOT brothers, or at the very least brothers that grew up totally apart. Must be very well written because my time is limited and I only want to read the best. Boy, I really sound like a snob! But seriously, these are my first steps into this fandom and I want them to be worth it.

Yet again, I have been mostly absent from online life, aside from a few stealth-like activities. The main reason for this (apart from my terribly slow desktop computer) is because of my Open University course. It's a killer this year, an unbelievable amount of work. I had it easy last year, I'm sure. I've just spent the last few weeks studying Pride and Prejudice and Frankenstein (1818), writing an essay on the narrative voices used by Jane Austen and learning all about the rise of the realist novel. I handed in my essay last night and now I'm planning my essay on character and genre in Frankenstein, of which I have developed an absolute obsession. I have three days to indulge in some extra reading (Paradise Lost) before I have to move on to Great Expectations and concentrate on the essay.

Anyways, sorry for being quiet. I'm catching up on my comments and emails now. I've had to delete all my LJ post notifications because I took one look at all two hundred of them and flailed.

I notice y'all are Twittering again. HERE IS ME

OMG, nine days until The Hub2!! Who's excited/skeered?

foreverbm is fabulous! Look HERE and HERE to see exactly why we think Michael and Ben are the bestest and the hottest and the sweetest.

And talking of hot, I was browsing tomfelton_daily and I found a brand new Piccy. Fuck me backwards on a bicycle, how gorgeous does he want to be?!?!?!?!?!?!

Want to see this film nooooooooooooow

The flash of the Bathroom Scene made me squeal like a little piggy. DRACO!!

I've been meaning to do this for days

Coda to an Epilogue: Twenty Years Later, Or The Kids Are All Right by Maya

This is gen, Harry and Draco friendship specifically, and it's absolutely hilarious. Draco and Harry end up in the sewers beneath Durmstrang looking for their missing children, James and Albus, and Scorpius. All the characters are so well crafted and the children are a hoot, especially Scorpius who is just like his father but not. This is the same author who is writing the brilliant H/D Drop Dead Gorgeous (WIP) and the side story The Way We Get By (Complete) which you should also catch if you can as it's one of the best H/D's out there.

This latest fic is in three parts, is complete and actually makes the official epilogue bearable. I can't recommend it enough.

Here I go again. I just appreciate recs so much that I simply must pass them on. The HP fandom is so huge, it's wonderful to be given stepping stones through it.

Firstly, entrenous88 has written an H/D drabble - requested by me - set during Half-Blood Prince. Watched. Entre is well known for her Spander, and her venture into writing HP is a very new thing, so I personally think it would be wonderful to go give her some love and maybe encourage her to write more in the process.

Secondly, this next fic was rec'd to me by literati in response to my last post, and like everything she's rec'd to me so far, it's fucking awesome. ~hugs lit~ The World of the Living. This is an incredible H/D set from Luna's POV. It's beautifully crafted and the characterisation is spot on. It's not a long fic, spread over just two parts, but it's a fantastic example of how much talent there is in the HP fandom.

On a side note, I picked up the new HP & OotP game for my PSP yesterday. It's hard. I completed GoF in about two days on the PSP and two weeks on the DS, but this? It's going to take months, baby.

It seems that the recent rumours of YouTube-style witch hunts and purging were a hoax, so I've decided to unclench and unlock all my posts. Business as usual. However, I'm still a little unnerved, so I may still may lock the odd post here and there and go into another total lockdown if things look to turn nasty. If you haven't already commented to me to be added as a friend so that you may still view these posts, feel free to do so here. ~huggles~

On to the pimping. I've been feeling rather poorly recently, so I've had plenty of time for reading. I feel the need to pass on the following recs (ALL HP - All Drarry):

Big Dick, Come Quick by Calanthe - Now, I know what you're gonna say, but this fic started out as a PWP and morphed into a long and gorgeous romance. Draco’s got a theory. About sex. And after much searching for the right candidate, it appears that only Harry Potter, his life long enemy, can help him test it out. Post Hogwarts. Beautiful feelings and plenty of comedy. Hot as fuck.

Dancing Queen by Maya - Dudley in leather takes Harry to a gay club. Guess who he meets? Funny and cute and Draco in glitter. Don't miss it.

Gold Tinted Spectacles by Beren - Harry is about to enter his seventh year, and things are not quite what he expected. He is no longer the angry boy who watched his world fall apart at the end of his fifth year, but neither has he completely found his place yet. He is looking for something, and to his confusion it seems to have something to do with Draco Malfoy. Plenty of fluff and feelings, oh my, teh cute. Long.

The Goodness of their Hearts by Taratext - Post Hogwarts - Malfoy Security Inc. is hired when Chudley Cannons' star Seeker Harry Potter starts receiving disturbing letters. I *adore* future fics and this one hits my the spot. Romance, mystery, comedy.

Paying the Piper by Sansa - AU, Non-magic. One small town, two murders and countless suspects. Police Chief, Severus Snape, and his side-kick Draco Malfoy must discover the truth behind the crimes. But new kid in town, Harry Potter, turns out to be the biggest mystery of all. I saw this rec'd just today and simply had to take a peek. I was totally sucked into it. It's an honest-to-god murder mystery that really does keep you guessing right up until the end. I was positively vibrating in my chair at one point it was so damn exciting! Lovely H/D and the friendships with Snape are brilliant. Honestly, you may think the premise is a little odd, but you'd be silly to not give it a go.

There, I think that's it for now. The recs will be added to those on my website at a later date.

Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
