I've decided to lock all of my personal posts - no reason other than that I rather like the idea of having at least a semblance of control over who reads those posts. Fanfic and other fandom stuff is unlocked.
Drop me a line to be added back!
Note: I no longer use LJ as a fic archive! All of my fic is stored on AO3 here.

1) Title: Flood Pairing: Harry/Ron/Hermione Rating: NC-17 Word count: 4,738 Summary: Hermione's idea, of course, this getaway. Away from prying eyes, no one else to focus on, see how they got on then with this new thing between them.
2) Title: Hypnopompia Character: Hermione (mentions of Hermione/Ron) Rating: G Word count: 1,289 Summary: Hermione wakes up.
3) Title: Avant nous, le déluge Characters: Harry, Ron and Hermione Rating: G Word count: 1,154 Summary: "None of them could sleep, the first time they tried." A little missing scene about what happened directly after Harry renounced the Elder Wand.
4) Title: Track Changes Pairing: Kieren/Simon (In The Flesh) Rating: PG-13 Word count: 7,125 Summary: It's an up-and-down road, that's the reason.
Title: The Lace Set Pairing: Lavender/Parvati Rating: G Word count: 926 Notes: written for an anon's request on the rant meme Summary: "Ron Weasley is an insensitive prat, Lav, and I told you from the start."
Title: Breathing Pairing: Luna/Ginny, Harry/Ginny Rating: G Word count: 1,709 Notes: written for an anon's request on the rant meme Summary: Ginny has cold feet.
Title: Bedtime Pairing: Harry/Ron/Hermione Rating: NC-17 Word count: 2,166 Notes: written for an anon's request on tumblr (I'm still accepting prompts, by the way, if anyone's interested!) Summary: Harry's working too hard.
It's been very, very quiet around here. I didn't think my move to tumblr would end up being so all-encompassing, but it has been - not because I prefer tumblr as a fannish platform to LJ (I still don't!) but because some of the people I interact with on tumblr have also become real-life, close friends.
That's not to say I don't still regret the fandom-wide shift to tumblr - even allowing for all sorts of xkit extensions it's STILL harder to have a conversation on tumblr than it ever was on LJ. And now with the new update and people scrambling to make that complicated xkit script just in order to have a reply function, I've realised even more that LJ is still more suited to in-depth conversation.
So, with the old "be the change you want to see in the world the internet" in mind, I've decided to try and revive my trusty old LJ. I hope that there are still people around here; I will be advertising this post on my tumblr, as I do suspect that there are people among my followers who, like me, sort of regret not having the same community on LJ we used to have, but who've stopped using it because there's no one left to talk to.
We'll see how it goes, yeah?
I owe my flist:
- a life update (work, house, hobbies, relationships) - a fannish update (what have I been watching, reading, writing, loving?) - a renewed dedication to actually reading people's posts on LJ and replying to them the way I used to - a more specific focus for LJ: more extended fannish (or rl) thoughts posts that will be more thought-out and edited than anything I write on tumblr (because while I enjoy tumblr's idiom from a linguistic pov, I miss actually writing things out properly. I could do that for tumblr, too, but maybe it's a good thing to have a separate way of doing things for my LJ.)
Title: I Have Heard of Your Paintings Well Enough Pairing: Kate/Irene Rating: G Word count: 300 Notes: For the fyeahsherlockfemslash blog over on tumblr (which I co-run and you should all definitely follow) for their Week 1 of Femslash February challenge: a tribute to your favourite femslash pairing. I'd say sorry for all the Hamlet references, but eh.
