    Hiiiiiii.
    *comes up for air*

    OH GOD, FLIST. Is there any better feeling in the world than finishing a deadlined-fic and sitting back, cracking a beverage of your choice, and just, like, not writing fic for at least 24 hours? a;lskjdf. I like writing fic, don't get me wrong. But that feeling you get after finally finishing something you've been sort of chewing on for awhile? Yeah. That's a damn good feeling. :D

    Fic-writing binge included making a pot of coffee and writing several thousand words on my birthday last week, which, aaaaaah, how awesome is that?! It was a great day overall, for several reasons, and thanks so much to everyone who wished me well or got me awesome v-gifts and things like that. ♥ ♥ ♥ ! I really appreciated it. Fic-writing in pyjamas with coffee and chocolate! Nothing better.

    I have fic recs from like a hundred years ago that I need to write up, and how on earth is it already December 1 tomorrow?! Well, better do it tomorrow, or you'll all be distracted with shiny holiday fests starting. :)

    Speaking of which... you're all posting about which ones you'll be watching, so, sure, here goes: my one real commitment is [info]smutty_claus, because that's the only one I'm in, but I'm also going to keep an eye on [info]snupin_santa, naturally, and probably [info]hp_yule_balls and/or [info]hd_holidays a little bit.

    And! [info]r_grayjoy kindly reminded me this morning that I have potential gifts coming from prompts I submitted to [info]daily_deviant's Kinky Kristmas fest! Not that I'd forgotten it was happening, but I did forget I'd left prompts a few months ago. *headdesk* I just went back and checked my prompts and THEY ARE AWESOME and got claimed and stuff so I'm super excited to see them. :) By the way, listen: I tend to run around the internet leaving prompts wherever they're solicited, so if you've ever claimed one that is meant to have names attached (I always assume they're just sort of going in an anon pile) and written something for me and I haven't seen it because I fail, point it out to me PLEASE. :)

    Random: [info]smutty_claus and Kinky Kristmas have my favourite banners and icons so far, though. Hiiiiii, sexy women in lingerie and boots and stuff. ♥

    No matter what fests you're following, though, be sure to take a second and leave a few words of feedback if you see something you like. It doesn't have to be long, and it doesn't have to take much of your time, but OH MY GOD it means the world to an author or artist to know you saw and liked their stuff. :)

    Signing off with a teenyfic!rec: The Old School Tie by [info]hereticalvision (Harry/Scorpius, PG-13, 300 words). This was the winning entry in last week's Harry/Scorpius Last Drabble Writer Standing contest, for the theme of 'detention,' and it was this wonderful, creative take on the theme. Totally made me smile.

    *re-uploads holiday icons, whee!*

    Twilight =/= Crimial Minds. Really.
    As seen in a Morgan/Reid comm...

    ...because I'm a little obsessed with New Moon at the moment...

    Then, honestly, go look for Twilight comms. Because Reid doesn't even know what Twilight is (a canon fact that I heart totally) and I'd prefer to keep it that way.

    This and That
    * Hope all who celebrate Thanksgiving had a wonderful time spent with family and friends.

    * The Girl Child went to the Black Friday sales this morning. At 4:49, while I was doing some serious sleeping, she texted. Scared me to death. Why did she text at that unholy hour, you ask... because she spotted John Travolta at the mall. Jesus. She's a freak.

    * The Boy Child had to work today - so no shopping for him. Instead, he gave the Girl a list and his debit card. He gave his sister his fucking debit card. When she was going to a mall. The boy is an idiot. Honestly.

    * It's chilly here in the Sunshine State tonight. Lovely thing, that. Right along with the Criminal Minds marathon on A&E.

    * And, on a Criminal Minds note, this week's episode killed me. Dead. *pets the CM team*

    • 17:01:07: wow, this was my first thanksgiving in two years without any lap-band restriction. I did well, but still ate more than usual!

    • 21:24:19: played Hand and Foot with Mom, Grandma and Step-Dad. Mom and I kicked butt.

    Random things, and art recs
    FACT: When you are used to writing antagonistic pairings, writing friendship pairings is hard. And features way too many OOC fights before the sex. :/

    FACT: I heard some old Heart song on... IDK, a bathroom cleaner commercial or something the other day, and now I can't get it out of my head. Also, it has now become the soundtrack for my [info]smutty_claus story. I... don't know if this is a good thing or not.

    ... but man, those chicks could rock, riiiight? *air guitar*

    FACT: The S.O. and I just heroically got out, by exploiting a technicality, of a horrible Thanksgiving dinner we were supposed to go to tomorrow, hosted by the distant relations of a pseudo-acquaintance. Yes! *fist pump* Pyjamas and bacon sandwiches on the couch by ourselves, here we come. Thank God. Americans, I love you and appreciate that you love Thanksgiving so much, but honestly, I usually have better things to do on my birthday or close to than hang out with other people's families who invite the foreigners out of pity. I appreciate the gesture, but, no. Just, no. :)

    FACT: Fabulous art recs are fabulous! Before I head back into writing lockdown, here, have some art!

    Till Death Do Us Part by Anon at [info]hp_darkfest (Harry/Ginny, Harry/Draco, R: blood, character death [Ginny])
    Mind the warnings, please: this is a very dark piece, thematically. It stunned the breath right out of me with its implications. It made me super uncomfortable and want to weep for humanity, in a way, but it's also an astonishing piece, both artistically and conceptually. Very highly recommended, but not easy to take in.

    Pensive by [info]stellamoon (Draco, G)
    Utterly stunning. a;lskdjf. I cannot even put into words how gorgeous and erotic this portrait is.

    As You Witch by Anon at [info]radish_love (Harry/Luna, PG)
    Yeah, ANON. *coughcough* Just about as anon as the first piece up there. :D There is no reason in the universe for this piece not having about 8 times as many comments as it currently does. It's fabulous.

    Teddy and Victoire by [info]ericahpfa (both PG)
    Erica is drawing next-gen portraits!!! *runs around flailing*

    "Looking for these, Potter?" by [info]tbranch (Harry/Pansy, R)
    Because I never, ever get tired of tbranch's Pansy, or Harry/Pansy. *purr*

    Lily/Lorcan/Lysander by [info]_aurora_sky_ (NWS LIKE WHOA OKAY. Also, incest)
    Because this post did not have nearly enough porn in it. :D Well, this isn't just porn. It's actually really gorgeous, with the positioning and the lighting and things like that. *nod* It's also hot like burning, okay, and I don't even care what you think of the next-gen characters or who Lorcan and Lysander are or whatever. HOT LIKE BURNING.

    See something you like? Leave a bit of feedback for a talented artist today!

    *runs back to writing*

    Fic: Light as Iron, Singed as Pearl (Harry/Draco, NC-17)
    Title: Light as Iron, Singed as Pearl
    Author: [info]snegurochka_lee
    Pairing: Harry/Draco
    Rating: NC-17
    Word Count: ~13,800
    Warnings: Dom/sub. Bondage. EWE.
    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.
    Notes: Written for [info]hd_career_fair last month for this prompt. "Thank you" does not begin to cover my gratitude to the divine [info]marguerite_26, whose handholding, beta work and modly prodding went well beyond the call of duty. When I was tempted to make Harry Minister for Magic, she also gets the credit for very wisely suggesting the position he has here instead. Thank you also to everyone who read, commented on, and recc'ed it at the fest. ♥ ! Originally posted anonymously here, where you can still read it in one file, if you prefer.

    ( Light as Iron, Singed as Pearl ) - over at LJ

    Feedback is always appreciated, either here or at LJ. :)

    • 21:04:26: oh my god, Kelly's smile lights up the whole stage. It was great to see her just GO for it, even if she had a few goofs.
    • 22:07:11: can anyone send me the last 20 minutes of tonights dancing with the stars?
    • 22:07:44: I paused it when step-dad got home, but then the next show started and it wouldn't rewind!!! *pouts* mom is PISSED. need help!
    • 22:49:13: step-mom has hit "I want a granddaughter" mode. Told her to rent one.

    Um, WTF?
    HPFandom.net... account suspended... any information to be had?

    Per darlinggirl1263 on LJ: The account was suspended for "excessive CPU usage". The mod is working to get things back up and running. We'll just have to wait it out.

    ETA: Had a couple of people asking for an older fic - meaning the ones I have not tagged here on IJ yet - so, I figured I'd just link you my LJ tags.

    Jesus. I gotta make myself get those old tags done. I mean, it has only been two and one-half years, right? *hates that kind of stuff*

    Vanilla and Kinky and Lifestyle! Oh, my!
    To be honest, I hadn't intended on posting anymore about BDSM. Not outside of fic, anyway. But someone asked the difference between kinky sex and Lifestyle. And the answers to this are endless. Especially if you try to use nothing but serious, technical type jargon.

    Good thing we all know I'm not so great with sticking to the technical, huh?

    So, let's look at this like a bowl of ice cream. ( Because, really, who doesn't like ice cream? )

    First posted as commentfic at kinkme_merlin #6
    Prompt: Arthur/Merlin
    Merlin had to run from Camelot after his magic was revealed and, years later, Arthur doesn't know what happened to him. In the meantime, Merlin has been traveling about, making a living by telling tales about Arthur and life in Camelot. One day, Arthur hears people talking about some story involving him that only Merlin could have known and realizes it's confirmations that Merlin's still alive

    Lockdown, and Lee finally figures out what LDWS stands for...
    Urf. I am in writing lockdown until [info]smutty_claus is done, because *draws hearts around story* but also *stabs it with a fork* a;slkjdfs.

    But! Had to reappear for a moment to point out that the first-ever Harry/Scorpius Last Drabble Writer Standing competition at [info]harryscorp100 just started. Yes, I have a soft spot for Harry/Scorpius, although no, I'm not in this competition. Just an interested observer. I only recently figured out a.) what LDWS things are, and b.) how they work, so now I want everyone to do them. :)

    So, there are 15 writers in it, and each week they get a prompt, and then they write a drabble (defined here as under 500 words or so, I think or, in any case, not 100 on the dot), send it in, and they are all posted anonymously mid-week. Then readers vote for their favourite, reveals happen on Sunday, and a new weekly round begins, with one less person. Fifteen weeks later, we have a winner. Fun, yes?

    Maybe I'm just addicted to reality TV shows wherein voting for favourites occurs? Hm.

    Anyway, I point out this week's Week One drabbles because they are all super good. The first prompt was 'Age Disparity,' so all entries have something to do with the age difference. Scorpius is underage in some but not in others, so read the warnings and go with whatever floats your boat. I had a great time over coffee the other day reading through them and trying to decide on a favourite. No, I'm not always in favour of competitive stuff in fandom, and yeah, it sucks that someone has to be eliminated every week, but hopefully all the participants are okay with that and know not to take it personally. Anyway, if it appeals to you, go have a read through over there and vote!

    In other news, I just read through a super awesome story for [info]snupin_santa this morning that made me fall in love with Snupin all over again. Swoon!

    *runs back to [info]smutty_claus* Hope all your holiday fest stuff is in and you lot are having a relaxing weekend!

    Hi! My name is Minxie…
    …and I'm a submissive. As in, a contracted and collared sub to my husband, Matt. D/s, BDSM, leather, lifestyle, call it what you will. It is what it is.

    Originally, I intended to post something like an introduction because, as my fandoms branch out, there are new people on my flist. And I tend to be loud and opinionated when it comes to head exploding kink fics. Figured offering some insight to me might help explain the tangent rants I sometimes have. Along with the fact that most, if not all, of my fics have some display of power dynamics, no matter how subtle.

    I'm sure those of you who know me best find that to be an understatement. Heh.

    This has morphed, through conversations with friends, into not only a hey, this is me post, but also one that, for lack of tact on my part, is a whoa! let's think about this before you write it post. Mainly because BDSM comes under enough fire without having misleading works of fiction floating around out there stirring up more trouble than they're worth.

    And, honestly, not trying to be a bitch, but if a piece of fiction disregards the basic principles of safe, sane, and consensual they really are more trouble than they're worth. They set a stage for others, those not in the scene, that can lead to misunderstandings, arguments, and, most important, serious injury.

    Not cool.

    Not when it takes just a few lines of dialogue, or even implied conversation to lend believability and credibility to the work.

    To that end, I've started a list. ( Which is actually quite funny seeing as I despise lists. )

    Got questions? Ask 'em. I'd rather you ask me something embarrassing than you make my head go splodey in the next fic I run across.

    * * *


    Whoa! Additional Lifestyle discussions taking place...

    [info]irana is talking about consent, SSC, and RACK. You can read that post here.

    [info]snapesgirl_62 is talking about polyamory. You can read that post here.
