| It's that time of the year, and I'll be away for the next two months. This means if I do comment, I'll be doing it ninja-style: swift and out of nowhere =P I highly doubt I'll have time to be on MSN, so contacting me via comments are the best way to go. Feel free to spam this post with links! And see you all in August! *hugs* P.S. Silly poll: "In the absence of Moaning Myrtle in the 6th movie, Draco should..." P.P.S. Wizarding swimwear. Scroll down for dork!Draco in green speedo and waterwings X-D X-posted @ LJ | ||||||||

| I agree that: 1 a. Fanfic authors have the responsibility to put up warnings. 1 b. Fanfic readers should not act all offended if they choose to ignore those warnings. 2 a. Those who like crossgen might identify with the younger, not the older, of the pairing. 2 b. Those who like dub-con/non-con/rape might identify with the one overpowered, not the aggressor. 3. Non-fandomers will not stumble upon chan unless they specifically look for it. How many of you even know what "chan" means before becoming part of the HP fandom? (Note: "shota" =/= "chan." More on that some other time.) *. ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small} florahart's replies to this comment are well thought out that you should read them in their entirety.Customs officials may search laptop or other personal electronic storage devices at the border.

T. Arnold person was arrested for having real child pr0n, but who knows? Having a bootlegged movie on your laptop might also be cause for prosecution. X-posted @ LJ | ||||||||

| Disclaimer: This is my own observations on androgyny and the Japanese genre of Boys' Love. I'm a Japanophile and have a few Japanese friends in rl, but I'm not Japanese. Just to let you know. Wanky comments will be deleted =P Plug at will. Am curious about what other people think. This post originated as two comments in response to flyingskull’s comment on the Boys' Love genre. ( On Boy's Love ) ( On Androgyny ) Comments? Theories? =) Now X-posted @ LJ. Next up: - "Why Slash Attracts Women--My History of Encounter with Slash" - "Manga Art: the romanticizing of violence and Caucasian characters" | ||||||||

| Claim your thematic_hp prompt: Wizarding society & traditions There are 22 prompts left to choose from. You can write a drabble, an epic, or anything in between. Gen, het, slash & femslash are all fine. The round finishes on 30 April; however, late submissions will be welcome. Some of my favorite prompts: ( Melfinatheblue should skip this LJ-cut =P ) 1. This fic search for jennavere's Vertigo is made of WIN lolol \o/ 2. Do me a favor? If someone posts a fic search using NEON GREEN font, please to be ignoring them? Otherwise they will never learn ARGH T_T 3. Anyone has a link to "Strawberry Jam"? It's an H/D fic at Pit of Voles. AU HBP, Draco asked Harry's help to go through his birthday, which is when Wizard's gift/talent manifest. Draco ended up getting the Healer gift. (X-posted @ LJ) | ||||||||

| Lucius: "I don't understand why you won't use the hair-fluffing charm I taught you." Draco: "With all due respect, Dad, I look gay enough as it is by virtue of being a Malfoy. Just yesterday someone groped my arse at the Ministry lift!" Lucius: *is interested* "If you flirt with them, will they give you a promotion, do you think?" Draco's hair: *threatens to stand up* Draco: "ARGH!111" *leaves the room with a dramatic robe swirl* Lucius: "That boy. Wherever did I go wrong? I suppose I should be thankful he washed his hair everyday Narcissa: *pats her The conversation that led to above crackfic: Lucius has the ultimate comb-over... | ||||||||

| Score is angsting that Jade isn't around for Christmas hols. The subsequent conversations with Al are here, here and here.  sneaky_potter said: !!! Is that you? You're so bloody cute as a child. Why weren't you wearing any clothes? X-Dscore_malfoy said: No, it's my dad.Of course it's me, you idiot! Although grandma likes to say that we're indistinguishable save for my eye color. I'm less pasty too, although I wouldn't say that to my dad. I...really don't remember why I wasn't wearing any clothes. I might have come back from playing in the mud or something sneaky_potter wrote: So now Score thinks that I want a girlfriend. Sometimes, he's so clueless I want to cry.I just...I'm his best friend, and I know that he doesn't think of girls that way (or boys), so in a way that's a great relief. Sometimes, though, I wonder--is it really Jade that's the problem here? That's what I've always thought before. But maybe--maybe I'm just too convenient for him. ... Jade talks about taking English class at school and her classmates snubbing her. The conversations between Jade, Score and Al are here and here. meigui said: We're reading Harry Potter: the Hogwarts Years for our International History class starting next week (^_^)Ingrid flipped out when I told her my brother is the best friend of THE Harry Potter's son. She pestered me to ask you to send pictures! "Preferably the two of them in Quidditch uniform." She probably wanted to make money out of this (*_*) score_malfoy said: ROTFL X-DWait, wait, I have to call Al over here! AHAhahahahahahaha... sneaky_potter said: Huh? What?Oh, hi Jade. Long time no see. It's a bit disturbing how easy it is for me to RP as two 14 y.o. boys and one 10 y.o. girl...interacting with one another. Awesome split personality, Y/N?

| 1 a. slytherin_100's third prompt is Game, open until January 5, 2008. Bonus points if you include Tom Riddle/Lord Voldemort. The second prompt, maze, is open until December 29 (bonus points if you include Blaise Zabini). 1 b. My response: "Mind Games"--(Padma Patil, perceived H/D, 100 words). I might have written Ten Things about Padma Patil too >_> Will expand it to 20 Things. 2. The two-week special writing_game is up here. This is also the trial run for our new Post Secret feature =D 3. Psst! Snamione fans! Match the story to the quote Christmas quiz. 4. FYI, Americans, the British do not use the word "cooties." I changed "Gryffindor cooties" to "Gryffindor germs" in my 20 Things about Score. 5. I'm only 2/3 done with the fic that is due on the 23rd. Haha. Ha. 1000-2000 more words to go... @_@ And still need last-minute beta too. Shoot. Some arguments against fanfic (with refutations) @ LJ and IJ If fanfic is indeed more about social interaction and acceptance than it is about dollars and cents… Bring on the thick red curtains! \o/ 1. herohunter wrote Clex discussing Harry Potter for me, me, me. MWAHAHAHA. "Of Wizards and Hobbits" (Lex/Clark, G, DH spoilers, 838 words) Summary: Lex and Clark have deep discussions sometimes (I'm not sure this is one of them...). 2. rivkat wrote me an amazing thief!Lex too, but I am horrible and haven't read or commented ^^;; Will rec after I properly go 3. It looks like I'll be writing the Lex-Luthor-is-sorted-into-Slytherin Will try to keep it at 750-1000 words. (X-posted @ LJ and GJ) | ||||||||
