    Dear My Fingers:
    I appreciate your industrious hacking away at the (somewhat-past-)due fic, but some of these errors of logic and departures from expectation as you go along are a bit ridiculous.

    For instance, "building" and "bukkake" (of which there is none expected in this fic) are really quite not at all the same thing, and are not interchangeable.

    Pls to type what (and only what) the brain says now.

    Thx,
    Me.

    Wanted - one drabble/ficlet prompt!
    Resulting drabble/ficlet to be posted sometime in December.

    Usual request - pairing or character, plus a 1-to-3-word prompt. Any fandom you know I write/have written is fine.

    Thanks!

    [If I get multiple prompts, I will write more than one if the muse is cooperative.]

    Happy Thanksgiving!
    To those who celebrate - and a happy Thursday to everyone else!

    We're going to our neighbors' for the evening in about two hours; pretty much all we've done today is take Juno to the dog park (where there were a handful of other dogs), have brunch, and cook stuff to take tonight. SO's worked a bit on his window. So yeah, definitely a holiday.

    Tomorrow I'm actually going to roast a turkey breast, just for us, because otherwise there would be no leftover turkey. There were fresh ones in the store yesterday when we stopped to pick up some milk, so I made the decision partly on impulse. I'll make dressing and gravy too, but other than that, it'll be some of the near-infinite supply of leftover veggies, nothing special. Probably won't make mashed potatoes, at least not for tomorrow. Possibly for with leftovers though. I contemplated making rolls (my sister having called about that recipe this morning) but I think maybe will wait and make them at Christmas instead.

    I'm so thankful....
    If you've commented on a post....

    If you've left a drive-by-hug...

    If you've read and enjoyed a fic I've written...

    If you commented on the fic...

    If you've stood by me in the good and bad...

    If you've shared your life with me...

    If you've laughed or groaned at my insanity...

    If you've written for or enjoyed fics at my little H/D community [info]slythindor100

    If I've been lucky enough to have met you at a fandom event...

    Fandom is a funny place. We laugh with each other. We cry at each others sorrows and cheer the victories...large and small. And sometimes we hurt each others feelings. I hope I've never done that...but I'm human and I make mistakes. If you're ever in the Chicago area - let me know...I'd love to meet every single one of you.

    Today and everyday....




    My turkey is in the roaster, stuffed and happy, I have 3 dozen freshly baked yeast rolls, a coffee cake, pecan pie all done. The pumpkin pie is in the oven and the broccoli casserole is about to be made. Next it's the pretzel salad and then I can sit down with a cup of coffee and read the paper.

    I hope you all have a lovely day. ♥♥

    Fic: Le Ténébreux (Severus Snape, R)
    Title: Le Ténébreux
    Author: [info]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 [info]bewarethesmirk for the beta, and thanks to the folks at the [info]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!)

    The Rec Post Of DOOM, Part 2
    hd_career_fair may be over but I've still got some excellent recs to make. These fics are so varied from one another that there's something to everyone's liking. My only wish is that Harry and Draco would continue having diverse and imaginative careers outside this fest. After all the fun and unusual scenarios I'm not sure I'm ready to go back to the compulsory, more than plentiful Auror!fics quite yet. :D

    Little Red Courgette (H/D, PG, WC: ~31,000) featuring Cartoonist!Harry and Assistant Junior Under-Secretary in the Office for the Volumetric Standardisation of Edible Wizarding Greengrocery Produce!Draco by [info]blamebrampton, art by [info]raitala
    Summary: When this season’s purple courgettes are woefully thin, Draco Malfoy thinks it amounts to small beans. Next thing he knows, the Department of Standards is over-run with leeks, Brussels sprouts all sorts of legislative difficulties, and somebody appears to have put a roquette under Harry Potter. Can Draco seize a marrow victory? Or will his plans for peas be squashed?

    Draco smiled slightly; he knew the feeling. Of course, he was partially responsible for the dark circles beneath the Minister's eyes these days. His last report, all four-hundred-and-twelve pages of it, had been a detailed summary of the desirable diameters of lettuce varieties, from hearting to non-hearting. Shacklebolt had read it, too, as the three red circles around mis-spelled words proved.

    Blood and Brimstone (H/D, NC-17, WC: ~42,000) featuring Inquisitor!Harry and Prodigal!Draco by [info]calanthe_fics (Set in Ginn Hale’s Wicked Gentlemen universe)
    Summary: The Inquisition claims it reforms and cleanses Prodigals of their demonic heritage, but Captain Harry Potter learns that the Church has lost its way and is worse by far than the devils in Hells Below.

    Harry thought that if more angels looked as compelling and dangerous as Draco he'd have worked a lot harder at praying over the years.

    Silhouettes in Sunsets (H/D, PG-13, WC: ~23,000) featuring Day-time Accountant/Night-time Luthier!Draco and Owner of Hedwig's Owl Emporium!Harry by [info]potteresque_ire
    Summary: Draco Malfoy is a Gringotts accountant by day and a luthier by night. Harry Potter is the owner of Hedwig’s Owl Emporium on Diagon Alley. Music and scheming owls will bring the two men back together.

    It will be a long night. Draco has never worked on a harp before -- how can a heart so open, so candid need so many strings to speak?
    Harry's reasoning is simple: because it's talking to you.


    Normal Does It (H/D, NC-17, WC: ~26,400) featuring Captain!Harry and Druidic Warrior!Draco by [info]lotus_lizzy, art by [info]cydienne
    Summary: On his deathbed, Lucius gives Draco an almost impossible task that will hopefully salvage the reputation of the Malfoy family. Draco finds himself in need of a magical ship called the Wave-Sweeper, but finds one Harry Potter standing in his way. This "new" Harry Potter, with his strange obsession to be "normal", assigns himself the task of being Draco's watchdog. Together, with a motley crew of Hogwarts alumni, they fly both sea and air following an ancient map that leads them to an unknown island and strange creatures, but both Harry and Draco are harbouring secrets that threaten the tenuous relationship that grows between them.

    'Ron's not lying. Voldemort's body is really gone. My father thinks the Unspeakables stole the body to run tests on his skin. His body secreted a natural sun block, keeping his body free from melanoma.'

    Wrong Side of Dead (H/D, R, WC: ~30,000) featuring Scout!Harry and Model Member of the Force!Draco by [info]sirra_scribbles (A Zombie Apocalypse!)
    Summary: "Zombies reached out their grey-green fingers stained purple and red at the tips, their mouths open in groans."

    "Unscrew the fuel tank cap, here." Draco dropped one end of tubing into the green tank. "Now start siphoning."
    "What?" Harry sceptically eyed the tube in Draco's hand and the petrol tank.
    "Get down and start sucking."
    His eyes widened and a faint flush came to his cheeks. "Beg pardon?"
    That was queer, Draco thought as he felt his own face warm. "You poofter. Now you have the job of lifting the moped."


    Light as Iron, Singed as Pearl (H/D, NC-17, WC: ~13,800) featuring Commissioner!Harry and Club Owner!Draco by [info]snegurochka_lee
    Summary: The owner of the elite BDSM club M had not gained his reputation as the most coveted Dominant on the scene by taking on just any riff-raff submissive who asked. It would take an unexpected letter to convince him to accept a new client, but it might turn out to be the biggest mistake he ever made.

    Quick as lightning, Draco's hand shot out and he curled his index finger under Potter's chin, his thumb digging into the side of his face. He squared his shoulders and shifted his voice, making his new persona plain. "What did you say to me?" he said quietly.
    He held back a grin of triumph when Potter crumbled. Casting his eyes down, his shoulders curved and his arms fell limp. Draco stared. Remarkable. After a heated pause, Potter took a shuddering breath and murmured, "Not here."
    "You don't decide that." Draco shifted his hand so that his thumb slid over Potter's lips. Despite himself, Potter parted them and swiped his tongue up the pad of Draco's thumb, a flash of heat creeping up his face. With his own blood rising, Draco threw caution to the wind and leaned in close to Potter's ear. "I decide what happens here. If I want to bend you over this desk right this second and fuck that grin off your face, that's my decision, not yours."
    Potter whimpered.


    Scratching the Itch (H/D, NC-17, WC: ~10,000) featuring Model!Harry and Model Agency Owner!Draco by [info]tray_la_la
    Summary: Draco Malfoy is a homophobe who's allergic to gay men. He's also the owner of a male modeling agency. Go figure. Harry Potter is a model for hire who may just prove to be the cure to Draco's ails.

    Draco rolled his eyes. Fucking Paris. He’d been to Paris: everyone wore black and nobody gave a damn.

    Lazy day
    Walked Juno, did 6 loads laundry, took Juno to the vet (time for a vaccine & also more heartworm med), and read a couple of novels. Now cooking beets (for me)and radishes (for SO) for dinner. Maybe will also make the little bit of broccoli; we've had the beans-and-greens 3 days running, so even though there's still lots, time for a break from those. Also have leftover baked chicken and noodles.

    So, yeah. Basically a lazy day, in which no work for either teaching or school got done. I didn't even check those email accounts.

    Have some fic to edit, and am gradually developing an idea for my Yuletide fic. Oh, and thanks to [info]cruisedirector for the AO3 invite - of course now I have tons to upload, but that's the way it goes.

    Regarding BDSM fic and How it Should be Written
    Dear women in fandom,

    Don't tell other women what they can and can't write. Don't tell them how they can and can't express their kinks.

    Please keep in mind that when we write fanfic, we are writing fiction. We are exploring our fantasies, not demonstrating how our kinks work in real life.

    If you don't like something you are reading, then backclick.

    If you want to post a BDSM instruction manual drawing from your own, specific personal life experience than go for it! I'm sure a lot of people will be grateful and find it extremely informative.

    But when I see one woman in fandom saying that she hopes a post will stop other women in fandom from writing a particular kink because it isn't written the way they personally want to see it written it make me furious with furious rage.

    Especially if you are coming from the perspective of someone who lives a lifestyle that is frowned up and denigrated by greater society. You should know better. You don't try and stop other women from expressing their kinks in fiction. You don't tell them to do it "right" or shut up.

    Women should not be trying to silence other women.

    Given that, I challenge anyone who reads this and is interested to write and post BDSM fic in their LJ written exactly to their own personal kinks. Make it completely realistic, if that's what gets you going, or don't worry about making it realistic at all. Do it if you've got 10 years of experience in the BDSM community, do it if you're vanilla as hell in real life, do it as a celebration of the freedom we have in fandom to express ourselves exactly as we please through fiction.

    Just don't tell other women what they should and shouldn't write and don't let anyone else tell you what you should and should't write.

    More *thud*
    Read online discussion comments, wrote a recommendation, taught two classes, met w/ two different students re: research paper, revised lecture, wrote up lesson plans for all next week, read two chapters in source reader, wrote up two sets of discussion questions, dealt w/ both work and student email, checked on LIS classes' readings/assignments/due dates (some reading & discussion to do this week and should work on last big assignment).

    It's now 4 pm, I'm incredibly stiff and sore from yesterday's gardening, and I'm gonna go home and drink tea and edit ficlets (or else read Yuletide canon). *nods firmly* I can write a quiz and another recommendation at home later this week, also grade a couple of reviews and do a last bit of reading for one of the classes I'm teaching. So yeah. Outta here...
