I couldn't think of any good segues
- Gorgeous art nouveau Firefly posters
- A sculpture made for Superman/Batman fans.
- I am definitely buying this issue of Tiny Titans - Batgirls! Batgirls!. They've even got Bette!
- I saw of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 and really enjoyed watching it although I came out of the cinema feeling curiously flat. I suppose it was because is the final one and there wasn't a cliffhanger? I don't know. I'm now desperate to read Seventh Year fic about Neville. Can anyone (
lyras?) point me in the right direction?
- I finally watched the first four episodes of Avatar and I am completely charmed. I'm really looking forward to the rest of it.
- My plan for this evening is to reply to comments and emails. I was ridiculously busy last week with job applications and getting ready for my graduation and I barely had a minute to myself. This was the first graduation that I've actually enjoyed, despite the fact that most of the people I'd hoped to see weren't there. I got to wear a very silly hat and robes in my favourite colour and the event was surprisingly relaxed despite vast quantities of processing around The Founder's Building and fanfares from the Life Guards(???).
- Have some recs
This Town We're Painting by
Fahye (St Trinian's; Teen; Annabelle Fritton/Kelly Jones)
She'd never expected to find herself a government employee. But these days Kelly had a boss who'd never once tried to hit on her, an expense account of apparently exospheric height, and a job that was almost as fun as outright crime.
I rewatched St Trinian's the other day and this is exactly the future fic I wanted. Makes perfect use of the St Trinian's old girls network.
Twenty-Year Man byellen_fremedon (Vorkosigan Saga - Lois McMaster Bujold; Explicit; Ivan Vorpatril/Byerly Vorrutyer)
Lord Ivan Vorpatril and Byerly Vorrutyer, making Vorbarr Sultana safe for (highly limited experiments in) democracy.
Fascinating and plotty fic where Ivan accidentally stumbles upon Barrayaran political intrigue and decides to investigate. This fulfills my desire for competent Ivan fic. Which reminds me, there's a new book out, isn't there and I haven't even tried to find it. I must remedy that when I've read A Dance with Dragons.)
