cluegirl	11:02p	Well... it's been a long time since *that's* happened... I haven't tripped the 'skeevy old perv' radar for a long time now. Generally I read outside the prey group for them, but I drew one today, and he was both obtuse, and immune to the 'gentle brush off'. It was kinda funny, in a sad sort of way, to find it happening today. Well... a sad, and 'I need to wash my hands now' sort of way, at least. Went out hat hunting today -- unsuccesfully, although I did score some great resale items, and a ripping pair of naughty librarian shoes. No hat fit the bill though, alas. One of the hunting grounds one hits when one is looking for a hat to mutilate and remake into an 1830's Fascinator, is the ubiquitous Salvation Army store. That's where my 'admirer' drew a bead on me, and then proceeded to follow me around the store, making idle chitchat, most of which involved asking dozens of questions about me -- most designed to lead him to pertinent predatory information, such as where I lived, and with whom, and whether I had any family nearby. You know, the sort of thing serial killers want to know. The funny thing was, he in no way *read* as dangerous. Hinky, sure. Skeevy, absolutely, and no way was I inclined to let him know where to come looking for me, but he didn't trip my Predator radar, and that's pretty well-honed these days, I must confess. He read as a lonely, slightly confused, slightly dazzled old man of limited means, and not much understanding of personal space, who wanted to talk to a girl that wasn't afraid to look him in the eye. And anyway, he kind of ran away when he learned that, instead of living in an apartment with female roommates, I was married. I shrugged and smirked a bit, and considered the encounter finished. Until I passed him and his stinky cigar outside, on my way to the car. He came shuffling after me, calling more questions, and I decided to be polite to him, and indulge him in a bit more conversation. I realize, reading over the preceeding, that friends will be shaking their heads and calling me an idiot for stopping, but I haven't entirely set the scene aright; it was a bright, sunny day today. I was in full view of the store's entrance, and there were three men within fifty yards, loading donated clothing into a truck. Also, while the man was taller than I, and might have weighed just a bit more, he was palsied, slow, and had one hand occupied in hanging onto the natty rag of a cheroot he'd chewed nearly to pieces -- nobody who loves a cigar that thoroughly is going to drop it on the ground just for a chance grab. I was in no doubt of being able to defend myself, should I need to. And really, I was more bemused by him than anything else... He asked some more leading questions; did I shop at this grocery store, did I live on a steep or a gentle hill, and suchlike. I gave vague and misleading answers, and let him chatter about other people he knew from various places, and pepper me with the occasional compliment. Asking if he could kiss me though, was where the line got drawn. Getting pushy about it and trying to insist that he kiss me on the mouth... well, that was a big ol "nuh UH!" I pushed him off, laughing to take the sting out of "dude, I don't even know you!" Then I patted him on the arm, said I needed to get going, and left. So here's the brain-twist. I know that sociopaths pass -- that's how they survive, that's how they hide, and most of all, that's how they hunt. But I also know that part of that hunting parameter is based in a deep, instinctual perception of safe victim types. I haven't read 'victim' since I was 14, and the only place I have ever 'read' floozie, was at renfaires, when I was playing such. Even at burlesque, I never made myself available to the audience for grab-arse and chatting-up between acts. So he might have been just a lonely old man who asked hinky questions and didn't want to heed 'no,' he could have been a psycho with a taste for Tiger, but without the organization to plan his drop, or I could have another interesting encounter with him sometime in the future. Based on my instincts, I'm going with the first notion. But rest assured, I'll let you know if he turns up again. If he tries to kiss me again, I might need to take up a collection for bail money though. I'm just sayin'. (Comment on this)
eeyore9990	10:39p	Fic Rec Okay, so. Confession time. I've been a bad reader/commenter lately. Of course, I've had my head buried in my own fic, but that's no excuse. So, starting now, I'm going to try my hardest to rec something(s) every single day. Today I read a fic that just... Okay. Wait. First of all, I read several fics today, and enjoyed them all muchly. But this one particular fic really sparked something inside of me. It was everything I love about Snarry. The witty snark, the sort of adorably bumbling Harry, completely abused by life but still maintaining his stiff upper lip Snape... gah, it was just fantastic. It was hilarious and sweet and hot and perfect. I encourage everyone to rush over to snarry_holidays and read Monkey Business. Caution: You might want to massage your grinning muscles before you go over there. Get them good and ready to grin HARD for however long it will take you to read an 8k+ fic. Because you will. :D From start to finish, you will grin like a devil, if you're anything like me. Now. Go! (Comment on this)

snarry_holidays [ snarryhols ]	5:27p	Fic: Dust of Snow Title: Dust of Snow Author: Is Snogging Someone Under The Mistletoe Giftee: who_la_hoop Word Count: 10,200 Rating: NC17, but not by loads. Pairing: ...Snarry? Warnings: none, unless you think EWE is a warning. Disclaimer: All Harry Potter characters herein are the property of J.K. Rowling and Bloomsbury/Scholastic. No copyright infringement is intended. Summary: Severus wakes up, to his surprise, but he has some catching up to do. Author's Notes: The prompt included relative equality of Snape and Harry, and for Snape to be rescued/saved by Harry. Severus was surprisingly uninterested in bringing quite the usual measure of snark or bitterness, but maybe he's just turned over a new leaf? Thanks to I and V for reading through.

faynia	2:59p	ASS_Fest Round One: Why yes, I have written something recently Round one is over, and I can proudly lay claim to my pretties. Title: How to Embarrass Scorpius Malfoy Name: faynia Prompt: #011 - Scorpius kept accurate account in his head: up to this point, Albus has kissed him exactly twenty-seven times. The weird thing about it? None of those kisses were placed anywhere near his face. Prompt Given by: grey_hunter Word Count: 755 Rating: PG Betas: lesyeuxverts Author's Notes: I’d like to thank everyone who suggested a part of the body for Al to kiss. It was a big help in finishing this fic. Summary: Squeaking was undignified, but Scorpius wasn't sure he had any dignity left.

cluegirl	11:15p	So I turned myself to face me ( but I never caught a glimpse ) (Comment on this)
faynia	9:39p	*cracks knuckles* So, the 10th is a heck of a lot closer than I thought it'd be from the otherside of NaNo, which means I'm desperately seeking out someone who can help me gather my thoughts and poke holes in my rather shoddy outline for my Next Gen fic. It's AS/S, it's sorta plotty, it's definitely going to need an extension (heh), any takers? Please? (Comment on this)
snarry_holidays [ snarryhols ]	8:07p	Fic: Deconstruction: A Writer's Tale Title: Deconstruction: A Writer's Tale Author: A would-be clever girl Giftee: femmequixotic Word Count: Approximately 4,700 Rating: Approximately PG-13 (but there is some swearing and some implied naughtyness) Pairing: Why, Harry and Severus, of course. Warnings: AU, AR, Severus and Harry living as Muggles, existential ramblings, attempts at high-concept meta, disregard of the epilogue entirely, and a few bad words. Disclaimer: All Harry Potter characters herein are the property of J.K. Rowling and Bloomsbury/Scholastic. No copyright infringement is intended. Summary: What is love but a contrivance? Let us, gentle reader, deconstruct love and determine for ourselves what it is and what it isn't. Author's Notes My dearest Femme, it's not at all what you could imagine, I think, but it is earnestly given to someone who I think—above all—will understand what it is truly trying to say. There is desperate kissing against walls and the hint of, "Oh my god, I have to fuck you NOW!" So hopefully those elements will soothe any potential discontent. Happiest of Holidays to you. Much thanks to my fantastic beta and to the mods for being incredibly patient. ( Deconstruction: A Writer's Tale ) (15 Comments |Comment on this)
eeyore9990	4:21p	A Smile Like That, PG If I were doing Advent Drabbles, this would be yesterday's. :P This is just something I wrote on the spur of the moment, and is not part of the ficlet offer I made earlier. Anyway, enjoy. It's, umm, not really attached to any fandom, though in my mind it is, of course, HP. Make the characters any of your choosing.

Disclaimer: All Harry Potter characters herein are the property of J.K. Rowling and Bloomsbury/Scholastic. No copyright infringement is intended. Summary: “If you ask me why, I couldn’t answer. I don’t know what possessed me to do it. It just happened.” A love story. Author's Notes: Thanks to B, E, and Y for the beta. This was inspired from a recent death in my family, my grandmother who passed away recently. I was quite close to her and so dealing with that was hard. In a sudden hit of inspiration, this came out of me. I don’t quite know how, but it did. So I hope you enjoy it, and Merry Christmas for 2008. - ( If You Ask Me Why ) (10 Comments |Comment on this)

cluegirl	1:17a	Well. That went well. No, seriously, it totally did. This has been the best Thanksgiving we've had in years. The feast was amazing, the company was wonderful, the conversation all over the map, and inclusive leik whoa, and even when the kitchen was overflowing with people, cats, and not enough tupperware, nobody got an eye put out, or went home crying. There were 'before' pictures -- everybody took some, -- but we were in such profound food stupors, we plumb forgot to take 'aftermath' pictures, until we were halfway through putting the carnage away. We watched, and greatly enjoyed True Blood over the visit, and I ain't afraid to say so. I've had that insidious opening track in my head ever since, thank you. And, had Friday managed to be more than a protracted, daylong nap, punctuated by raids on the leftovers, we might well have watched Waking Ned Devine, as well. But, well, not so much with that. That's okay though. The daylong nap was still entirely enjoyable, and did wonders for charging everyone's batteries after the cooking frenzy of the days before. Today, we drove Mystery Guest #1 to the airport, and then took Mystery Guest #2 home to Boston. Took the opportunity to introduce her to another of my ex-Albany, now-Bostonian friends, and was thrilled to see a rather immediate click happen there. I'd always rather suspected those two would get on famously. Dominus and I elected to make the drive home tonight, in the interest of him getting a whole day offline tomorrow, since the poor boo had to work on Friday and all. As is usual for us, we spent the drive home from Boston arguing silly worldbuilding things, like heirarchy of powers between vampires, werewolves, human mages, and the sidhe from my Blackwatch universe. Silly, I know, but I'll try any trick to get the muse's knees apart, don'tchaknow. And without recourse to Snow Leopards or I-hate-everything baskets*, we made it home just as he was beginning to get the exhaustion-light tracers, so all was well. And now? I take my pills and go to the sleeping. Cheers, all! Current Mood: satisfied Current Music: I wanna do bad things with you... (1 Comment |Comment on this)
