"Did you say 'manslaves'?"

[mooging]

SNOOOOOOOOOOW! THERE IS SNOOOOOW! IT IS SNOOOOOOWING! 

Yes, I am allowed to be childishly delighted by the snow. It is lovely. Lovely snow. Snoooow.

Anyway.

I thought I'd do that thing where you list the fic you've written over the last year. I don't know if any of you reading this read everything I wrote, or indeed wanted to read any of it, but I'll make the list because I am filling time for posterity anyways, and, idk, maybe there's something here for someone to spend five minutes reading or something. Also, some of this was just posted on a community and not here, so, er, this can be a place to find non-here fic? idk. Shhh me.

All the spoiler warnings, etc, are at the start of these fics, so you shouldn't be accidently spoiled. Ones with a star next to them are ones I am particularly pleased with, for whatever reason.

Green Wing:

- Wind and Rain and Maybe-Cliches; PG13-ish, Mac/Caroline (a little Mac/Guy)
- Rambling is a Side-Effect of Greatness; PG, Mac/Guy *

Real Person Fic: (side note: all of these are locked in their respective communities)

- Woe is RIchard, Except Not; Top Gear, PG13, Jeremy Clarkson/Richard Hammond/James May
- Drunken Kissing is the Best Kissing; Mock the Week, PG13, Ed Byrne/Russell Howard *
- Fascinating Things, Cupboards; Mock the Week, PG, Ed Byrne/Russell Howard

The History Boys:

- Lemsip (it's not all it's cracked up to be); PG-ish, Irwin/Dakin
(see also: crossovers)

Doctor Who:

- Above Them, the Sky is Burning; High R, Master/Doctor/Jack
- A Different Sort of Need; R, Master/Doctor

Life On Mars:

- Oh, the Corners and the Stars; PG13, Sam/Gene
- Of Life and Death and Bombs; PG13, Sam/Gene
- Paper Cuts and Ponderings; PG, implied Gene/Woolf, implied pre-Sam/Gene
- Denial is a Kind of Lucidity; R, Sam/Gene
- And the Reasons We Have; PG, Sam/Gene (spoilers for season 2 finale)
- Definitions are Complicated; PG13, Sam/Gene, Sam/Annie *

Battlestar Galactica

- A Little Rhyme and a Reason Forgotten; Battlestar Galactica, R, Kara/Laura

Crossovers:

- Lipstick Kisses and Red is Like Hate; Ugly Betty/The Devil Wears Prada, R, Wilhelmina/Miranda Priestly
- To Drink; The History Boys/Harry Potter, PG13, Irwin/Lupin *

Also, I'm thinking about buying the Sally Lockhart books: should I? I really like Philip Pullman, and I feel terribly bad about watching the tv adaptations without having read the books, so, er, yes. And on this note, does anyone have any book/tv/film recommendations along the lines of rolilcking period drama - such as, idk, the Sally Lockharts, the Lucifer Box books, The Prestige, Tipping the Velvet, Dracula. You know, meaty plot, less repressed romance and more hansom cab drama - not that I don't like the repressed romance (I do, a lot), I'm just in the mood for, er, Rollicking Period Drama Frivoling.

THIS ENTRY WAS SO VERY RUBBISH. Here is a picture of Gary Oldman sexing it up as Dracula to make everything better:

ajkgbbkjbbksjkjb, is what I have to say to that.

WHY IS IT SNOWING EVERYWHERE EXCEPT WHERE I AM.

Yes, get the Sally Lockhart books, and you can read them, and I can read them as well! Except I have to get round to re-finishing The Amber Spyglass, and therefore may lag behind you to quite some degree!

I APOLOGISE FOR YOUR LACK OF SNOW. I HOPE YOU GET SNOW?

Yes, we can do simultaneous readings. Although I have to finish The Prestige first, which I have started - the film obviously did not give me quite enough of a Sexually Charged Magician Duel kick.

Have you read this (http://community.livejournal.com/masterficathon/4851.html), by the way? I remember I was writing it with you, but I don't remember if I made you read the finished thing or not, and I'd quite like a Maddie-opinion, if, er, that's not being pushy or anything, oh dear, this is why I don't try to communicate with others.

AMBER SPYGLASS = ♥ ♥ ♥

INDEED.

Dracula!Gary is the only incarnation of Mr Oldman that I would SO shag.

Oh god, that fine tailoring and dandy hat. *whimpers* God, I love men in a sharp suit.

[moogle62.livejournal.com]

I think you know my opinion re: shagging Mr. Oldman.

Seriously though, Dracula!Oldman is just unbelievably attractive HOT.

[missfoxie.livejournal.com]

I believe I do know that you would SHAG HIM SENSELESS, yes.

PS- Just out of interest, how do you go about thinking up titles for your fics?

[moogle62.livejournal.com]

SHAGGING sorry what I got distracted there.

I have absolutely no idea as to how I go about thinking up titles for my fics but whatever I do, the titles fail, so, er, it doesn't really matter. No, wait, usually I think of a line I liked from the fic itself, or the idea I'm trying to get across, and kind of re-word it, if that makes sense?

[missfoxie.livejournal.com]

I cannot think what by.

That makes total sense. I was just wondering about the title process, as someone else on my flist was interested in how everyone else thinks them up because she believes she is crap at them. I do what you do, though I also tend to use song lyrics and quotations a lot too.
