Below is the Master List of fics/ficlets etc in the pan-HBO-War-Fandoms-Modern-AU. I've broken them down by the years in which they are set. All different sections of the 'verse are here.
Rating: PG-13 (Some art may be considered NSFW depending on your work place.)
Summary: In 71 BCE, Spartacus and his forces are nearing the end of the rebellion. After a failed escape plan, Agron and a handful of others are separated and forced to flee on the seas south to survive. This is the story of how they learn to live and cope in a new world.
Warnings: As Agron is suffering an injury, this fic deals with the mental state of coping with a bodily injury and feeling useless. I know this can be triggering for some people, so I’m putting that warning here. There are also some scenes that can be construed as ptsd-flashbask-esque. There is also a mention of off-screen character death via crucifixion, though none such torture is described.
Disclaimer: Spartacus belongs to Starz. This is a fanwork with no profit made of offense intended. Part titles come from Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Notes: This fic is both a canon and historical alternate universe take on what occurs in Spartacus post-Vengeance. Anything that occurs in War of the Damned not seen in the pre-season proms is strictly coincidence and this will not be compliant with that continuation of the story. In terms of history, while inspired by the actual time period and events of the last battles of the historical rebellion, this completely deviates from that as well. Gannicus’ death occurs much earlier in this fic ‘verse than it did in history. Modern German phrases and writing are used at times within the fic in place of what would’ve been the written Germanic runes and the spoken language of the time.
On the art: All the amazing artwork for this fic was done by Miss Steorie. The pictures are combined with the text and when you click on them you can go to photobucket to download the full sized files. I highly suggest you do this as there are so many amazing details and so much work put into them, you owe it to yourself to appreciate the full beauty.
So, if you're from lj/dw you know the drill: If you'd like a holiday card since from good old North Carolina, drop me a line in the ask/submit/fanmail on tumblr/as a screened comment on lj or a pm on lj/dw/twitter or e-mail your address to rivlee130 at yahoo DOT com. Skew, I think I need a new address from you. Kay, you know you're on the list. Does anyone have Nat's new address? Aspen, Holly, Terribeth, you are all on there too of course! :)
Comments on screened if you want to live an address there.
Just writing all kinds of fic. Even though I haven't updated this journal in a while, the fic comm is getting steady updates. Fic writing is pretty much all Spartacus, all the time, and since I'm working on both a major WIP for the series, and a Big Bang fic, I suspect I'll make a lot more writing rants over here.
In other news:
Things are going pretty well on my side of the world/with the family. General bs related to nursing, medicaid, and funding, but that's the norm.
I already have plans to visit Nashville again in January. Trying to work for a day/weekend off sometime this month to go up to the Mts and see the leaves. Mom's looking into it since we'll need coverage for Carrie. Blue Ridge Parkway is just so damn pretty this time of year.
I started watching Elementary and adore it. I love the dynamic between Sherlock and Joan, very brother-sister, I won't take your b.s. I love the fact that we're seeing more of Holmes as he was in the actual friggin' stories, even if ACD, you know, hated the character that made him famous. And I really love the fact they use a Rube Goldberg Machine for the opening credits. It's perfect. And even though I am not yet in love with the show, I will defend it just for the sake that people are getting all up and arms about the fact it's not a carbon-copy of BBC's Sherlock. (I like that version, but how in the hell it's become the Holy Grail of Adaptations I don't even know.)
Not dead, life has just been eaten by work and Spartacus fandom. I've posted some fic at larks_still_fly and worked on some ridic mixes I'll have to make proper posts for eventually. Currently writing/posting one big fic in Journeys 'verse and a bunch of little ficlets from other things.
-In music I love news:
Recs: The Lumineers and Cold Specks. If you only listen to one of the two, go with Cold Specks. Her music is breathtaking. And if you haven't listened to Empires' Garage Hymns, go do that now. But only after checking out Cold Specks.
Gaslight Anthem's new album, Handwritten comes out on the 24th. I am overly excited about this. I love that band too damn much.
-In tv news:
Behind on everything. That being said, I am actually looking forward to the CW's new show based on The Green Arrow. Other than that, the cable in my room hasn't worked in about a month, so I def. need to fix that before the start of fall tv.
-In movie news:
Finally saw Brave with my mom, sis, and carrie's aide, Serena. It was pretty much Carrie's first time out of the house in a year for something that didn't involve doc appts. She did damn well and LOVED the movie. I also loved the movie and want the soundtrack, like, now.
