Ouphe's/An Ouphe's fics *retires sub-pseudonyms*

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
As I'm wont to do, I went away and played as someone else for a while. Now that I'm engaging in a fandom tidy-up, however, I thought that I'd move these fics here. I hope that you enjoy them. :)

The Tick-Tock of Fatherhood )

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
Hi everyone!

Because so many people are in transit this weekend and we're still putting together our posting schedule, we're going to delay posting until the evening of Dec 1. Sorry for any inconveniences! We can't wait to get things started, and hope you all enjoy the fest!

FIC: In Darkness and Regret (FFIV)

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
Title: In Darkness and Regret
Author: Rushlight
Fandom: Final Fantasy IV
Pairing: Cecil/Kain
Spoilers: for pretty much the entire game
Summary: Being honest with yourself is the first step toward true happiness, but that doesn't necessarily mean you can get there from here.
Author's Notes: I just recently finished playing FFIV on the DS, and loved it. This little scene popped into my head as I was playing, and while I tried to resist I couldn't help writing it down.

When Fandoms Collide

I am having real problems with the demo dance currently on Strictly. I've always thought of Matthew as a model for 'my' Draco, and here he is dancing with a redhead (Ginny?) while this dead ringer for Harry is swinging a blonde Astoria round the floor.

Yes, I'm totally gaga.

Don't eat while reading this. Eeesh.

By the way, hearkening back to my earlier post--this doesn't spoil anything, since you can see on the Yuletide list of requested fandoms that no one asked for it--I did not get assigned to write for Richard Adams's The Plague Dogs. I decided, when I accidentally included it in the list, that rather than redo my list I'd just go read the book once and for all, even before the assignments came out, so I got it from the library.

I got through Ulysses easier than this. This is...guys, I have written some interesting metaphors myself in my time, some of them admittedly more purple than should be seen outside of crackfic, but this takes them all:

...Rowf's rump slid suddenly forward as smoothly as a turd from a healthy anus...

I can't even facepalm. It's too squicky.

We went down to Salinas to J's sister's new place, and holy crap is it huge. It's got a nifty layout, and infinitely more space than their old house. We hadn't seen Natalie since before she was walking so it took a while for her to stop giving J and I the suspicious eye, but by the end of the night it was lots of carry-me arms, and where Sophie is usually all about her Uncle J, somehow this time I ended up with her hanging on me more often than not. I suspect it was that I was wearing a pink shirt so that boosted my coolness rating. It's interesting to see the ways her personality has changed now that she's a big sister. Sometimes I wish we lived a bit closer in order to visit more often.

Anyway, we hung out, ate food, played with dolls, tried to devise a plan to steal their adorable pug, and at the end of the evening I got the bonus of belated b-day gifts. See subject. I have also increased my fuzzy scarf collection by one, so I should probably put out some of the ones I don't wear often out onto the curb.

The drive was nice, and J and I talked a lot about the ways in which we'd like to focus on our projects for school and general creative things. I'm back to having a solid idea of where to go with my current assignments so I'm feeling very rejuvenated about them. Which is good, as I need to be doubly-focused this weekend, since I didn't actually get any extra days off, and the lab is closed tomorrow which is typically my dedicated time to go in and work all day on my homework!

Let's see--

1000 words of NaNo today. I'm at least a day behind as far as wordcount goes. Very frustrating. But I am getting there.

Gaming machine attacked by toxic malware today, so I lost at least an hours worth of time, and had a bit of a fit trying to get the bloody thing *off* my computer. *sighs* Gone, now, but really not a happy thing.

For those of you who have followed my family issues with my mother's side of the family--good thanksgiving this year. There were only eight of us total, so it was nice and quiet, which means no huge blowups.

Also, being by myself, I got to watch anything I wanted on tv, not football. Anime yaoi, ho!

I had to work part of the holiday, so I just counted the time I did have off as a good thing, and took it easy rather than make plans with others. I did make time to make a yummy dinner for myself from scratch:

Chicken with sun-dried tomatoes in dijon-riesling-cream sauce
Sesame noodles
Spicy peanut butter soup
Tart green salad with proscuitto and asiago and warm balsamic dressing
Warm butterscotch-maple pudding

I love mixing cuisines.

Combining Snarry Recs

[info]sev1970 posting in [info]snarry_recs
Add to Memories Tell a Friend
Most of you are members and post recs at LJ, but there is also a [info]snarry_recs at IJ. I have debated whether or not to do away with the IJ one, but I just can't do that, so what I am going to do is combine the two. I am going to have one master list on the user info page and it will reflect the fics rec'd at both IJ and LJ. You do not have to join both the community and asylum unless you want to read a fic rec that is at the site you are not a member of - in that case you will need to become a member.
