Woah.

Just in case anyone thinks LJ's downtime is just TPTB being incompetant, read this:

LiveJournal, Russia's blogging platform of choice, is sustaining biggest cyberattack attack in its history. Bloggers say the Kremlin wants to crack down on political discussion.

"LiveJournal, Russia’s most popular blogging platform, has been under a massive DDoS attack for the past few days. The attack has effectively wiped out Russia’s main refuge for unbridled political discussion, a hugely lively and extensive domain frequented by politicians, opposition activists and social commentators alike...

“The reason for attack is more than clear in this case — someone wants LiveJournal to disappear as a platform,” Ilya Dronov, development director at SUP, wrote in a post on his LiveJournal blog earlier this week. He said the hackers were hoping to push bloggers from LJ to social networks where “it's easier to fight individual users.”"

Friends Only

My fiction isn't locked, but everything else is friends only. Comment here if you feel like saying hi. :D

(no subject)

So this is me. Here. Because miriam is awesome.

I may not be here a lot, considering I'm taking a fandom break in general, but another journal place, especially with the intentions DW has, can't be a bad thing.

FIC: And You Are...? (Arthur/Merlin, NC-17)

Apparently, I'm having a fling. :D

Earlier this afternoon I was innocently scanning the Porn Paragraph challenge over at

linaerys's lj and SUDDENLY I saw that

suaine had posted the prompt: Merlin + Arthur + AMNESIA.

AMNESIA.

My most beloved and utterly bulletproof kink. And so.

( 930 words of arthur/merlin amnesia porn-fluff, for which I should probably apologize but OH WELL, NOT TODAY. )

re-posted here so I could add such frivolities as punctuation.

FIC: two datestamps to So Close to My Heart (j2)

Well, I obviously need to have the concept of 'datestamps' explained to me, because after rocking through the first few prompts, I stalled out trying to make the rest of them actual fics instead of little glimpses. It is very vexing. (x-posted nowhere, b/c I'm not sure what I think of these. If you hate them, just pretend they didn't happen, 'kay? :D )

Original story here

So Close, a year and a half before (931 words) -- the first time J, J and J hang out without the Rosenbaums present, for

lomedet

( Read more... )

So Close, a year and a half later (1750 words) for

wendy, with bonus Alona for

FIC: Brilliant (Arthur/Merlin, R)

ahahahaha... I wrote Merlin fic. I watched 1x10 last night and it just HAPPENED... when confronted with slash that blatant, what could I DO? I was overwhelmed!

Title: Brilliant
Pairing: Arthur/Merlin
Rating: R
Spoilers: for one line of dialogue in 1x10
Summary: Merlin drinks, Arthur disapproves. Until he doesn't.

For the primae noctis challenge over at

merlin_flashfic, oh, GOD, am I nervous. But whatever, nothing ventured, right? :D

Brilliant

I still have datestamps to post. I fail at hiatus, obviously. :D

happy endings and date stamps

Happy ending comment fic, chez

memphis86, lots of lovely prompts -- I hope everyone goes to play. :D:D

Mine is here. Boys snuggling in bed, rated a very definite G.

(Also? In my head, it takes place in the Not Moving Mountains, Jensen-gets-over-mono 'verse, so it's the same as a datestamp, yes? *bg* From

wendy's prompt and

yehwellwhatever)

I have one more datestamp that came out of this post

( datestamp for G is for Gamble, n3 )

More datestamps on Monday. :D

I'll have the next batch on ~~Wednesday~~ make that Friday. My life, so crazy. :D

lj breaks and datestamps, anyone? :)

So I have this novel I started during NaNo, right? I wrote 30k words, plotted the whole thing out, fell in love with people who weren't the JJ's (!!!) and basically started doing what I've said I wanted to do for YEARS.

And now it's the end of January, and I want to finish the first draft by my birthday in April, b/c I can be just as symbolic as the next person, BUT. I'm having a hard time getting down to tacks here when I ALSO want to write the JJ's making out in the surf of some white-sand beach, and Merlin and Arthur falling in love in Victorian England. I was moaning to

sori1773 about this a few weeks ago.

Me: What's wrong with me? It's like I'm purposely distracting myself! If it weren't for NaNo, I would never have started the book in the first place. *frets*
She: So do another NaNo.

She's smarter than I am. It's one of the reasons I love her. :D

Soooooo, I'm taking a live journal break for the month of February to work on my book. (eeep!) I'll still be around on email, and to answer bigbang questions, and I'll most definitely be back in March.

But BEFORE I GO *g*, I'd like to offer up some datestamps, if anyone's interested. (oh, man. I never do stuff like this b/c I always expect, you know, *crickets* in response, but.)

Comment here with a future time frame and the title of anything I've written, anything at all. I'll write a few hundred words in that 'verse and post them on Monday.

Thanks for playing. :D

ETA: That's ten, so I'm going to cap it here. Thanks so much for the prompts! :D:D

Fic: Numbered Days (j2, PG)

aaaaaaand, let's try this again. *koff*

Title: Numbered Days
Fandom/pairing: cwrps, j2
Rating: PG (This is a first kiss story.)
Word count: 4600
Summary: "You're pretty, he's pretty... you both like dogs. It's fate!"

Notes: Written for

deathbymutation in the

spn_j2_xmas fic exchange. I used your prompt that asked for Jensen saving Harley, and a misunderstanding about why she needed saving in the first place. Only somehow the boys ended up in college while that happened. (And *ahem* Harley is a girl dog. I'd appreciate it if you'd give me that one.) :D I really hope you like this, hon, and I'm sorry it's so late. :D

FIC: Not Moving Mountains, 1/2 (J2, NC-17)

Title: Not Moving Mountains
Words: 12,182
Pairing: J2
Rating: NC-17
Disclaimer: This is entirely a work of fiction.
Summary: Written for Sweet Charity and the wonderful

destina, who asked me for "J2 non-AU comfortfic. Of any sort. As long as it's warm and fuzzy in the end. And has lots of touching." :D

Notes: A few more at the end, but HUGE beta thanks to

setissma,

luzdeestrellas and

wendy. Huge. Really.

FIC: Forgotten, pt. 4 (spn, dean/castiel)

It's been awhile! I may be writing this for myself at this point. :)

Title: Forgotten, part 4/?
Fandom/Pairing: SPN, Dean/Castiel
Rating: Adult (finally!)
Word count: 2000
Summary: Dean knows what he used to be but he still doesn't remember anything about it; Sam is missing; and Castiel just hopes they can stay ahead of pursuit.
Notes: An occasional series. I'm going to wrap it up by the end of the season, though. Also? This has gotten kind of hand-wavey on canon.

Previous parts are here

So Close stuff

This is SO COOL.

juice817 and her beautiful reading voice *g* made a podfic of So Close to My Heart, and I'm pretty much thrilled to DEATH. Links to download or to listen online are available at her journal here. If you check it out, tell her how awesome she is, yeah? :D:D

Also very cool --

sandrainthesun made gorgeous cover art of Dr. Jared and daddy!Jensen as part of the Fall Fandom Freeforall. Jared in a lab coat! That says Seattle! I'm tickled.

( cover art hee! )

I'm all bouncy now. Thanks, bbs! :D:D

FIC: Forgotten, pt. 3 (spn, dean/castiel)

Title: Forgotten, 3/?
Fandom/Pairing: spn, dean/castiel
Rating: PG-ish for now
Length: 2100
Summary: Dean's starting to figure it out.

Notes: I'm having WAY too much fun with this. Anyway, here's the deal with this WIP, as well as an index with the previous parts. And at least as far as Sam goes, this still has a nodding acquaintance with canon. Like they went to high-school together or something. Thanks for reading. :D

Sweet Charity and The Boss

The Sweet Charity auction started today! They're raising money for Invisible Children, so you might want to go over and see what's available. (spoiler -- many awesome things! I've already bid twice.)

I'm offering a short slash story of at least 3000 words, officially either Sam/Dean, j2, or bandom (mcr, patd), but honestly, I'd be willing to take a shot at any fandom I've written in before. No het, non-con, hardcore kink or death fic, though. And hey, the more AU the prompt, the better. :D

This is the auction page.

So. Last night G and I are watching the Bears game in our bedroom, and Kid 2 wanders down all sleepy and cute and awake so we bundle her up and put her on the bed with us to watch the half-time report. And the big story is that Springsteen is going to do the half-time show at the Super Bowl, and there's a whole montage of recent Bruce tossing himself into the crowd and Van Zandt wearing his do-rag and playing his guitar and they're all being rock-star-like and singing 'born to run' and I'm thinking, "Yes. Bruce, you still have it. You are still cool."

And then, from the pile of pillows and blankets next to me, a voice sighs, dripping with all the world-weary ennui a seven-year-old can muster, and says, "Old people singing a song."

THANK YOU, sweet-pea, for that reminder of my mortality. I think G and I were hysterical for ten minutes.

Enjoy your Monday. :D

FIC: Forgotten, pt. 2 (spn, dean/castiel)

And suddenly, I have a WIP. *g* I know where I'm going with this, but I can't wait to learn more about canon-Castiel, either. eeeeee!

Title: Forgotten (2)
Pairing/Fandom: spn, Dean/Castiel
Rating: PG-ish, for now
Summary: His time in hell isn't the only thing Dean's forgotten.

Notes: I just can't leave these two alone. hee.

Part 3

Entry tags:

FIC: Forgotten (spn, dean/castiel, PG)

I don't know what this is. I can't even call it speculation. More like 800 words of utter insanity. *desk*

Title: Forgotten
Pairing, fandom: dean/castiel, spn
Rating: PG-ish
Summary: He wants only one thing.

Notes: Honestly? I think I've been waiting three years for an excuse to do this to Dean. heh.

I actually finished something -- a ficlet!

So I was over at

tvm's brilliantly conceived hurt/comfort comment meme (post a prompt! write a fic!), reading all the awesome, squooshy, lovely stuff w/o any thought of writing anything myself UNTIL

regala_electra requested post-hell with blind Dean and scarred Sam. Thus I present:

possibly the most self-indulgent thing I've ever written

Which covers a lot of territory, I must admit.

In other news, it is now Tuesday. TWO MORE DAYS, YOU GUYS. :D:D:D:D:D
