Aletheia ~ Veracious Reality

Three crossovers:

1. Like an Onion Inside Out (The Doctor, the Queen, and the TARDIS Remix) by spiralleds
(Narnia/Doctor Who, The Doctor/Susan Pevensie, PG-13)
Summary: Sometimes endings are just the beginning.
Spoilers: Inclusive of the entire Chronicles and through series 4 of the new Doctor Who.
Warning: character deaths, talking animals

Author's meta

Includes Nine, Ten and Thirteen. And it WORKS. Also, even though it's character death, it's Narnia, after all =3

2. Congrats, You've Met Your Match (The Space Captain Remix) by roga
(ST:XI/SGA, Kirk/Sheppard, R, 3000 words)

Ridiculously hot even without the sex. The original reads as the missing sex scene ;-)

3. Ten Synonyms for Sensational (The Dragon/TARDIS Overdub) by nopejr (Doctor Who/HP, Ten, Draco Malfoy, PG)
Summary: The Doctor pouted. Draco wasn't impressed.

Cuuuuuute *_* And funny. With fanartzes!

And three non-crossovers:

1. Still Waters (Hypothetically Speaking Extended Dub) by cimorene [LJ]
(ST:XI, gen, mentioned Spock/Uhura, implied Kirk/Spock, PG)

Author's meta

The original is an always-a-girl!Spock genderbend. The remix is Jim's pov, and his finding out (via his slutty ways myriad charms) that Spock is practically royalty. I love how the remix shows the differences of the Kirk/Spock dynamic when Spock's male instead of female.
tl;dr: Am deeply impressed, read it!

2. Art Appreciation (Boxed Wine and Crackers, or the Decline of Public Funding, Remix) by eyebrowofdoom (Smallville, Clark/Lex, PG)
Summary: If you can do this, you must be morally old enough for a drink.
Spoilers/Warnings: adult themes.

Leeeeeex, you're so cute. Only Lex would have a fantasy life as a starving art student X-D

O/T: In other news, Michael Rosenbaum's Adina/Adam is the only 3-D character in Sorority Boys. I wasn't expecting anything but a stereotypical slapstick comedy (w/ bonus crossdressing Rosenbaum!), so his acting really impressed me =D (believable character, inner conflict, repress repress repress, deny deny deny)
Also, he looks SO YOUNG in that movie.

3. Free Range Subjects (The Scientific Method Remix) by suaine
(Merlin, Merlin/Arthur, R)
Summary: No one ever said science was easy, and alien scientists are only human, after all.
Spoilers and/or Warnings: non-con (an alien made them do it)

It's an AMTDI fic from the aliens' pov =DDD \o/

Fic-changing meme gacked from herohunter:

Pick one of my stories and tell me a point in the tale that you'd change -- something tiny or big -- and I'll tell you how that one difference would have altered the course of the entire story.

Most of my fanfics are AU anyway, but have at it! =D

ST: XI recs:

1. Fanart: GQMF Colour by jbadgr
Spock inna suit MMmmmmm <333

2. Star Trek - I Love the World, Boom de yada yada fanvid by BigMamaG
Kirk's "I love real dirty things" & Nero's "I love arachnids" = X-D

3. Your mom is illogical...
Aaaaa Chibi Trek *_* Chibi Sulu (& Chekov!) is soo cute (read: suave and good-looking), but not as ADORABLE cute as Chibi Spock! =DDD

3*. Ahahahahah kappa!Spock X-D

4. Eyes Like An Impossible Storm by waldorph [@ LJ]
2,108 words, slight Kirk/Spock, PG, angst, outsider POV (Winona Kirk)
Summary: "She thinks that maybe in another universe, one where ships didn't come out of lightning storms in space, she would have had a brown-eyed, steadier child"

5. Vid: Circus (Star Trek XI; Kirk) by butterfly
You have to d/l it, but it's worth the effort.

What I've written for this meme so far (a flospy, a drabblet & three 100-word drabbles):

- Three facts about Aziraphale from my personal canon/fanon [Good Omens, 129 words]
- A reason Aziraphale is awesomecakes [Good Omens, 60 words]

- The last dream Dog had [Good Omens]

- Four people Chekov never fell in love with, and one person he did [Star Trek: XI]
<-- Awkward sentence construction is awkward.

- Three facts about Spock from my personal canon/fanon [Star Trek: XI]

No Kirk/Spock yet because they're 100 words each. I'm a drabble writer, not a miracle worker. (Except if I skip several years ahead in the timeline, I suppose.)

[ LJ | IJ | DW ]

1. YES YES I got almost everything right AHAHAHAHA >=D

2 a. Love the one easter egg sarahtales dropped in the book =)
Suddenly made me see two of the characters in terms of Maya's HPverse.

2 b. I'm not the only crazy fan who contemplated the possibility of a TDL/FMA x-over/pastiche, yeah? Just think: homunculus, the philosopher's stone and automail in TDL-verse. *whimpers at the thought of Alan outfitted with automail*

2 c. There are ENDLESS pairing possibilities between Nick/Alan/Mae/Jamie. Nick/Alan, Nick/Mae, Alan/Mae, Nick/Mae/Alan, Nick/Jamie, Alan/Jamie, Nick/Alan/Jamie...you catch my drift.

3 a. Love how the second and third book will come out in 2010 and 2011 YESSSS \o/
3 b. This would mean me spending $45+ every year for the series. (~$30 for the Japanese translation and ~$15 for the UK cover.)
3 c. I need to buy a book cover for the uber-pretty Japanese translation.

4. The night after I finished the book, I kept on having vague dreams/impressions about Nick. And possibly [SPOILERY main antagonist's name].

5. If I use random Japanese The Demon's Lexicon quotes for my post subjects, that won't be spoilerific to you guys, will it?
If any Japanese readers on my F-list want to read TDL and haven't, please let me know now.

Star Trek XI recs:

1. midnight_city's [fanart] - star trek stuff

It's cute like a v. v. cute, LOLarious thing X-D
Guess the movies! (Hint: both by Pixar =3)
Kid!Spock in a Starfleet summer camp get-up is the BEST THING EVARR <333

2. hollycomb's Sulu/Chekov fics, which I'm totally all over, once I get over the reflexive tic of "Hikaru no Go! Touya Akira!" whenever I read Chekov calling Sulu "Hikaru" ^^;;

2a. Trouble Sleeping (Sulu/Chekov, R)
Summary: Sulu and Chekov sleep in the same bed, but they're never in it at the same time.
How they got together in the end. Sulu PINING. V. sweet <3

2b. Space Sickness (Sulu/Chekov, NC-17)
Summary: Chekov is sick, Sulu is lost on an alien planet, Kirk is a cockblock.
Established relationship. Sweet and h/c and atmospheric and just right *_*

2c. Theoretically (Sulu/Chekov, NC-17)
Summary: Sulu makes Chekov watch the classic American Terminator movies. Chekov has some thoughts.
I wanna watch the new Terminator movie because Anton Yelchin's in it, but apparently it's even more awful than T3? ^^;;

2d. If I Didn't Care (Sulu/Chekov, NC-17)
Summary: Kirk and Chekov have a harrowing experience together on a dangerous planet, and Sulu is definitely not jealous.

If you only have time to read two, read the first two. If you only have time to read one, read "Space Sickness."

Sulu pining *_* Chekov seducing Sulu >=D

3. rageprufrock's new WIP: Discourses in Management (Lab), pt 1/? (PG-13, for language)
Summary: “How’s it going?” the instructor asks, her voice a harmony, hovering nearby. / "Futilely,” Spock volunteers at the same time Jim says, “Shitty.”

---

In other news, even though Kuroshitsuji (Black Butler) is a cheap, loli-shota knock-off of Kaori Yuki's Count Cain, I did enjoy the Bengali Prince arc, because no manga is complete without SURPRIZE appearance of South Asian/Middle Eastern/teeny European Kingdom royalty.

Also, can't help but be amused by the American chef (An American chef in a British household? lololol).

Okay, I lie, my fav. character is still the Bengali prince's servant.

Several of my post titles since April are quotes/snippets that have compelled three of you to wonder, "Who's Simon?"

Simon 'Templar' Drake is from Shadow of the Templar series, which some of you probably have heard about from sansa1970's rec last year. The series follows an FBI team and a world-famous jewel thief in a series of cases. The main pairing is Simon Drake (FBI team leader)/Jeremy Archer (thief). Banter, random geekery...oh and Archer is British =P What's not to love? ;-) ( Read more... )

Simon Drake aka Templar 29 y.o., 6'3", team leader, defender of the free world, an all-American middle-class boy from the Midwest.
* Good-looking and knows it >=D
* Repeatedly tell Archer point-blank that his job and his team members are way more important than him. Ouch. IDK why Archer doesn't just dump him. Oh right, because he is SO FINE.

Jeremy Archer aka Shadow aka 'James Crown', and dozens other aliases
27 y.o., 5'10", criminal, adversary, pain in the ass, British. ( Read more... )

Nathan 'Nate' Waxman aka Specs 28 y.o., 5'9", tech (hardware), bomb disposal, all-around mascot, a nice Jewish boy from New Jersey.
Has a crowbar with "Speak Friend And Enter" etched down the length of the grip. ( Read more... )

Michael 'Mike' Takemura aka Honda aka 'that crazy bastard' aka 'the loose cannon'
27 y.o., 6'1, undercover work, combat/tactical driving, general muscle, crazy
The Brooklyn-born son of a first-generation Japanese-American father and a mother of Hispanic descent.
* I just LOVE that his nickname is Honda. Not as bad as Toyota, but still. ( Read more... )

Sandra 'Sandy' Leone aka Springheel 28 y.o., 5'7", second-in-command, undercover work, general muscle
Came from old New England money. The best martial artist on the team. Have kicked Mike's ass so bad on numerous occasions.
* The only woman on Simon's team, but she doesn't feel like a token female character at all. ( Read more... )

Jonathan 'Johnny' Pilgrim aka Texas 33 y.o., 6'0", weapons wrangler, general muscle
Started his law enforcement career with the local police force.
* I like his interaction with Specs, mostly. So awesome protective =3 Like his jibes at Honda too. ( Read more... )

Richard 'Rich' Story aka Specs Two, 30 y.o., 5'6", tech (software), hacker-of-all-trades
A computer genius par excellence (and a nerd in the most classic socially-awkward sense). Native Seattleite.
* Total jerk to Archer, but you can't help but like him. ( Read more... )

+ Finished writing for armer_gayms' Bro Code challenge and I like it \o/

Smut Love for every holiday: A regular holiday-a-thon community

The stories posted at holidaysmut are mostly original slash, but fanfic, femmeslash and het are also welcome. Using HP fandom's smut-o-meter, a lot of the stories I've seen are in the PG-13 range. (If I'm looking at the tamer stories, by all means, someone link me to the NSFW ones =P)

To quote the mod:

[A]ny rating is welcome, too. Despite the comm name, we definitely value romance over smut, so it doesn't have to be smut. Smut is, of course, welcome.^_^

Also, as long or short as you want, poetry or prose or art, all welcome.

And most importantly for me (and I suspect for many of you procrastinating writers out there), the challenges never expire. All the challenges can be found on this tag.

Some challenges that I'm toying brainstorming and/or writing for: ( Ten for now )

Happiness meme - Day 6/8 & Day 7/8

1. Conversation seen at sams_cafe: Doesn't this news/blog business model sound cool?

2. Sinfest: "I'm good enough."

2. [identity crisis] On Race, or Privilege, Or Just Being Human

Rights, I guess, equals entitlement, equals a demand for privilege. It's hard for me to think of a right to be free when I've grown up in a family and a society where my family members - and country members - have sacrificed everything they are (in "Western terms") for their family. Their time, all their income, every inch of their soul and being, in family. Their children are their assets, their stability is their bedrock. Whatever right one has to be something less than practical, to leave the family home, that right gets overwhelmed by other desires. Same as freedom. The desire to see parents happy, or the wish for a smooth life, even in exchange for doing what one loves.

3. Why Aren't People Commenting on My Post/Story/Whatever?

15% were planning to get back to that post later. It's open! It's in a tab! Or it's in Read Later!
[...]
10% of the people who read you only lurk. They lurk everywhere. Maybe they can't type. Maybe they have tentacles and can't find a tentacle-ready keyboard. You don't know. And do you really want to risk displaying your prejudice against the betentacled?

Link seen at animeartistjo:
4. Mmm, Catholics, you deviant old thing, you

Legend says that Bacchus appeared to the dying Sergius as an angel, telling him to be brave because they would soon be reunited in heaven.

While the pairing of saints, particularly in the early Christian church, was not unusual, the association of these two men was regarded as particularly intimate. Severus, the Patriarch of Antioch (AD 512 - 518) explained that, "we should not separate in speech they [Sergius and Bacchus] who were joined in life". This is not a case of simple "adelphopoiia." In the definitive 10th century account of their lives, St. Sergius is openly celebrated as the "sweet companion and lover" of St. Bacchus.

AHAHAHH Patriarch!Snape X-D

5. Why Dreamwidth?

The question then is: why don't people click on ads on social media sites?

[W]hen you're browsing your Livejournal flist or Facebook feed, what you're not looking for is to purchase something. Not usually, anyway. Spending money is probably the farthest thing from your mind. You're looking to find out what your friends have been up to, browse your sister's vacation snaps, or read some fanfic. Buying something is probably the farthest thing from your mind.

Also, yay for pretty straight-haired brunette Katie! =D (Mainly for Drop Dead Gorgeous visualization purposes)

That unicorn-in-captivity tapestry in the background of Harry/Ginny? Totally on purpose. Because their love is SO PURE and some such. James, Al and Lily were products of immaculate conception MWAHAHAHA.
For some reason, I had a flashback to the second Matrix movie when I saw that scene.

1 a. Am so crazy-obsessed with this fanvid:
Merlin - The Dance (LJ post) by mamoru22
Merlin/Arthur vid to Maria Mena - I'm In Love

1 b. Untouched by solanyxe
PG-13, 'Untouched' by The Veronicas, 00:02:55
Summary: Arthur and Merlin both feeling 'untouched'

Motivational posters by andropovka:
2 a. Ventriloquism: "Ooh yes, Arthur you're so strong!"/ "Mmm, Merlin, I need you now!"
2 b. Sweet: Son, men do not give each other flowers.
2 c. Kingship: We built this city on rock and roll. And dead magic people.
2 d. Unwise: When dealing with an aerial foe, get into a target-shaped-formation
2 e. Arthur fanboy: the lights are on but there is no one home. Mmm muscles...

3. otempora42's Ep. 1x05 picspam: I love how everyone just stands around while Arthur does all the fighting. Makes you wonder why it's so important to be of noble birth when you're just going to be Arthur's cheerleader.

4 b. Five magical creatures Arthur didn't kill
4 c. Five ways Arthur almost found out about Merlin, but didn't.

5. Awesome personification of emotion as laid out in 1 Corinthians 13:
Of Anger and Love by Ras Elased
Summary: Anger is a false thing. It is never alone. Anger lies like a harlot with a multitude of other emotions, shrouding them in her bed linens to hide them from sight...Love, when it is true, is always alone.

1. Ficlets and drabbles galore. Sooo easy* to write them.

2. Merlin characters are v. v. easily transplanted into AU situations.

3. Present tense.
Are your English/Creative Writing teachers telling you to do this? Stop it, please D:

4. People are less concerned with Britpicking (compared to HP).
I still maintain that Merlin's referring to a donkey when he calls Arthur an "ass."**

5. Reverse print.
Why white on black, whyyy? =O Think about your poor readers' eyes!
?format=light*** to the rescue.

* Is this the case with all TV fandoms? It seems to me that SV was filled with epic-length fics.
** So "arse" should still be "arse." Or you can use "bottom" instead.
But in general it doesn't bug me, because Merlin/Arthur = hot. Shallow reader is shallow.
*** Even more annoying is the few people who changed their fonts on an html level, so that the font stays a funky shape/color/size even when using "?format=light" or "?style=mine." *cries*

4. I was watching this with my thirteen-year old cousin, and he was really into the whole Arthur-running-from-the-spiders bit and right after Merlin moaned "FASTER! GO FASTER" my cousin went, "YES! YES! HARDER, ARTHUR, TRY HARDER! DON'T STOP! DON'T STOP!"

5. 'Sophia may have been your first love, but she won't be your last.' Uther is trying to secretly remind him that he has already twice tried to convince him that he was in love, first with Merlin and then with Lancelot. He'd even started bonding with Merlin, trying to get to know his son's new boyfriend.

In Times of Drought by Ramtops_Witch
(Merlin/Arthur, NC-17, Rough sex, dom!Arthur)
Prompt: When Merlin complains about his thirst, Arthur goes out of his way to quench it. Blowjob, frustrated Arthur, Merlin likes it rough.

3 b. Which continues:
Lessons in Being Arthur’s Manservant
Part One: Doing What Your Prince Tells You, Damn It.
(Merlin/Arthur, NC-17, Bondage, Dom!Arthur, Humiliation (slight))
Summary: Merlin is taught a valuable…lesson. Oh let’s be honest. It’s smut.

3 c. And continues: Lesson Two: Riding Royal
(Arthur/Merlin, NC-17, Dom!Arthur, Riding, Pony-play? Spanking.)
Summary: This is why the kink meme is dangerous. *Ahem* I mean: Arthur is not content with Merlin’s body of knowledge and proceeds to expand it.

4. I may be semi-stalking ramtops_witch to see if she has written MOAR Merlin.

5. And she also wrote kitty!Merlin =D

Pairing: Arthur/Merlin. Merlin Kitty/ The ladies of the court (non sexual. Pervert).
Summary: Due to a Spell Merlin is turned into a Cat Person. WARNING: EXTREME LEVELS OF CUTENESS MAY RESULT.

Originally a tl;dr comment on syllic's post.

1. Don't you wish we have glasses that serve as a computer screen, and it tracks our eyeball movements so it scrolls down automatically as we read fanfic discreetly everywhere?
On the train, on the bus, in the car and on the road. In the market, on the run, in those meetings that're ho-hum.

2. I personally can't get into fanfic if I know zilch about the original source (Smallville and Merlin don't count because d-uh, everyone knows smth about Superman and King Arthur). Because fanfic always assumes some prior knowledge of canon.
And I need to know who is this Castiel guy and what is he doing sexxing up Dean, and is this Castiel person taller than Sam, older than sin, and have pretty pouty lips? And does he have wings? Is he an angel, a devil, incubus, what?
(Am not in the SPN fandom. Only watched the first four eps of SPN. Gave up.)

3. You should read Megan Whalen Turner's The Thief, The Queen of Attolia & The King of Attolia. It's children's book/YA/history-religious fantasy/THIEF. Because they are awesome (as awesome as Good Omens, in a different genre kind of way) and you can read them ON THE TRAIN/BUS/SUBWAY/PUBLIC TRANSPORT.

Multi-fandom recs grouped by fandoms: ( HP, Smallville, Good Omens )
