Four excellent things

[birdsofshore]

1) How to see all of the notes people have written in bookmarks on your fics on AO3:

This is bloody magic! I love reading what people have written in bookmarks, although sometimes it makes me sad when they apparently loved the fic but left no comment. And you don't get notifications of bookmarks, so unless you remember to check periodically for each fic you never even see them. Anyway, this fixes all of that! Just substitute your AO3 name in the appropriate places and TA-DAHHH.

ao3.org/bookmarks/search?bookmark_search%5Bbookmarker%5D=-YOURNAME&bookmark_search%5Bquery%5D=YOURNAME&bookmark_search%5Bsort_column%5D=created_at&bookmark_search%5Bwith_notes%5D=1

2) Proof that H/D is canon



As a Britisher I can confirm that the above is entirely true. Therefore, H/D.

3) The most wonderful Harry art that has melted my brain

shiftylinguini has created Moneymaker!Harry in her new art, 9.05 pm, and he is DIVINE. I had just about recovered from dicta's amazing fic and now BOOM! I'm useless again. SFW but may make your brain melt.

4) Fangirl seeking friends

maccadole has been away from HP fandom for a while, but would like to join in with all the shenanigans here on LJ... would any of my lovely flist please help her get started by friending her? She likes H/D amongst other pairings and is cool and interesting to talk to.

Thanks for that AO3 bookmark tip, totally made my day putting it to use. :)

This is my favorite so far!

WTF THE FUCK...... WHAT THE FUCK....

this realized all of my dreams. honestly this fixed everything wrong and it was Plausible and Im Character and i want to Die.

Alright. The Eigth Year Fic in which harry gets a car, gets the Right after school job, goes to a few parties, promotes interhouse unity, and gets a boyfriend.

Also? There's twister.

LOLOL!

It seems some people who bookmark me do so and then also use that to disclaim parts they *weren't* fond of too, though. LOL! Not that I begrudge someone doing that. It works to use that space for that probably more than the comments, certainly. It's just sort of snort-funny to suddenly find, "I really liked this except for this one stupid bit," LMAO! :-D

I will go friend your friend for sure! Any friend of Birds! (Though now I'm going to be SUPER SUSPICIOUS of you whenever you're really nice to me! ;-PPP )

LOL, I seriously found out about that AO3 thing yesterday, and I totally almost made a post today about it!

My fav is Kinda lame soul mark story where Draco and Harry are auror partners. uhh, okay? Sorry it was "kinda lame".

Also I have one on my Harry/Gryffindors gangbang fic that just says "introductions"....Still puzzling that one out.

Though, something really interesting/weird I noticed about that URL, is that I think if people mention your username in the bookmark notes, even if it's for somebody else's fic, they also show up there. I few people have bookmarked random fics that I've recced, and mentioned me in their notes as a reccer, and those bookmarks show up there as well.

Only two bookmarks for me *le sigh*

[alisanne.livejournal.com]

Ahahahaha! OMG, I am in love with that bookmark thing.
My faves so far:

The English language is very complex. ;) Indeed it is. *g*

Don't break time people. ...But if you do, fix it properly. Good advice...

Harry gets drunk, finds out he is gay, and sleeps with Severus Pretty much a summary of all my Snarry fics... LMAO.

Ooh, thanks for the mention and your lovely words. You're so kind.

Ghhn, that art rec though. And I haven't even read the fic it's from so that went into my to-read list. HAH, and the AO3 thing sounds brilliant. If I remember it in the future I'll definitely use it once I have some fic up and they've hopefully been bookmarked. SNORT. People seem to write down the strangest things when they bookmark stories.

I went on a bookmarking spree and then I forgot about that little tool. I need to go mark a few more.

[kitty_fic]

LOLOL

here's a good comment on mine:
Um.., that's it? I don't even like top Draco! That should have been on the warnings! How the heck did this even get so many kudos?!!!


Thanks, Birds! ^_^

[khalulu]

Thanks so much for the bookmark link - it makes it so easy to see the comments!

The whether-a-British-person-likes-you thing was very funny too.

[themightyflynn]

Dear lordy, apparently my 19 Years has divided the fandom!

WIP-Long time between updates On a fic that was updated weekly on Sundays and roughly a month before the entire 52 chapters were completed!

I read about half of this before abandoning it. It's basically a canon-compliant fic where Draco and Harry get together after having hate sex at King cross. It's a huge Ginny bashing fic and the plot is pretty boring. The one thing going for it is that the smut is REALLY well written. The ace writes good sex? Huh.

I think I might have died sometime in the last three hours. Now I'm a murderer!

Thanks for the link, it's fun! :D

[capitu]

Well, I don't have many bookmarks, but this is something cool: Someone put my whole rec for a story as their bookmark! Plenty of those, too! :D

[shiftylinguini.livejournal.com]

Eeee!!! Thanks so much for the shout out, Birds!!! :D :D :D One can never get over Moneymaker. I had to re read it to finish this art, can you believe the hardship? and then again to make sure I had the jacket right. And then again before I posted it.

Also I did the bookmark thing, and I have none LOL. woo. And I also hope you realise this means I need to go and bookmark all your fics with silly captions. I mean...I don't have a choice now. This needs to be done.

<33

That was an awesomesauce AO3 tip!!! It made my day to read those. Even the ones that were, quite literally, simple bookmarks. "Chapter 3." LOL!

I had seen that "does a British person like you" meme and had absolutely NOT thought to apply it to Harry and Draco. You are absolutely right! I'm taking that as gospel now.

shiftylinguini is the mostest beautiful drawing person and I loves her and all her art. Long Live Shiftylinguini!!!

Also, I has friended maccadole. :D
