Friends Only

This journal is friends only. I guarantee my recs will be public, so you don't need to be friended for that. Most other stuff, however, I lock away, just because. If you'd like me to friend you, say so (and why would be helpful) and I'll probably do it.

Be warned, my journal involves crack, rambles about college, me being emo, me quoting (and reccing!) fics, goodbadfic, h/d, h/d, h/d, bottom!Harry, rants, and occasional wank.

I think most all the people who commented said they cried at the end. I know I did. Because the angst is SO brilliant. But it doesn't read like "omg emo woe," it's funny and happy and Marauder all with the war brewing and the angst in the background contrasting and accentuating and guh, so much perfect. It should be everyone's lifegoal to make someone laugh and cry in the same fic, and Britt accomplishes. Read it.

Potter Sucks Cocks for Chocolate Frogs by Calanthe
Summary: How often do you read the graffiti on pub toilet walls? Harry Potter discovers that when he’s the subject of said graffiti an awful lot of people pay it rather too much attention, leading to life-changing opportunities for the boy who lived (to suck cock?). PLEASE NOTE - this story is on hiatus due to the author's horrible morning sickness.
Characters:
Genres: Romance, Smut, Crack!Fic
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Adult Language, Sexual Content

http://www.thehexfiles.net/viewstory.php?sid=6725

Yay for hilarious! The on-hiatus is bothersome, but it's a really good read anyhow. Go forth, my children.

Quotes:

The just plain hilarious:

"Oh no, sir,” Dobby said, cuddling Harry’s thigh. “Dobby made Harry Potter his favourite coconut cake. Dobby is remembering how much the evil Malfoy brat is hating coconut.” Dobby gave Harry a look that implied I am, without a doubt, the sneakiest house-elf that ever cleaned the Slytherin dorms, his bulbous eyes narrowed and crafty.

The wonderfully mean Draco:

The temptation to pick the fat slice up with his fingers was strong, but Harry resisted. He’d learned, quite painfully, that Malfoy not only detested when people didn’t use the provided cutlery for eating - a fork in this instance - but also that he had no problem whatsoever with stabbing Harry in the back of the hand with said fork whenever Harry ‘forgot’ his manners.

The hot:

Harry had never looked so closely at another man’s penis, and standing there looking at Malfoy’s, he couldn’t for the life of him work out why. It aroused incredibly strong emotions in him. It wasn’t pretty or cuddly or comforting-looking. Instead, it was masculine and dominating and…yes, virile. In that moment, Harry could totally understand why ancient people worshipped phalluses. Fuck! He was so hot for cock it would more than likely kill him if he didn’t get it soon. Harry wanted Malfoy’s cock. He wanted to touch it, to kiss it, to lick it and stroke it and fuck it. He wanted it inside him through any and every orifice that could accommodate it. Nothing else would do.

(Despite that encouraging tidbit, the fic gives me bottom!Draco vibes. Woe for me. I recced it anyway though, which ought to say something.)

Need I say any more?

Love,
K

He tries to do wandless magic (“concentrate boy!”) but the only thing that comes out is a pathetic whimper past his parched lips. His father always did say muggles are a disease, diseases are contagious and they kill and Draco doesn’t want to die.

It's weird when I see authors and I'm like: "Hey, they also wrote this, this and this! And I never knew!" That happened on her webpage today. Multiple times.

This sort of fic makes me jealous, because it's got a special sort of style and I just can't seem to manage that. Check out her other fics too.

Grammar rant

mood: twitchy

Being my flist, you probably know that I get a little twitchy about grammar. In fact, being my flist, you probably share my twitchy views.

(And no, oralroberts, I don't care if I do have a misplaced comma in here, I can still insult other people's grammar when it's this bad. :P )

( Eww, long. )
