omi_ohmy, for her efforts with my Smoochfic. I've had a nagging desire to do something to sort out my feelings about this out-take of Draco throwing Harry his wand, ever since I saw it, and then thinking about some of my favourite parts of The Tempest this week made the rest of it fall into place. I hope you like it, Omi, despite the essential daftness of the premise. (Also, sorry I didn't let you beta it first, but I wanted it to be a surprise. I bet you are itching to put all the dodgy bits right :D)
This week's general nonsense, part 2
Apr. 28th, 2013 04:19 pmRight, a matter of great pressing importance. Mr Birds broke my favourite mug for tea, and I need another one.

I know it can be a bit icky when people show actors fanart and such of the characters they play. However I think I love Mark Ruffalo a little bit after reading this:
"MARK RUFFALO KNOWS WHAT SCIENCE BROS IS, SHIPS IT"
He seemed so genuinely delighted by the whole concept, I found it strangely heart-warming. I've seen actors confronted before on talk shows or at cons, and they usually take it in good part, but then they're trying to appear likeable and funny, so it's hard to know how they actually feel about the subject. I know Tom Felton always seems amused by the things fandom comes up with, and often makes jokes about Drarry or Drapple. However I can think of other actors for whom this must have been a cringy situation.
What do you think about people having fandom thrust upon them like this? It seems sort of disrespectful, but then the interview above shows it can be a thing of joy... And, incidentally, do you ship Science Bros? I don't follow the Avengers at all, but Mark Ruffalo (is it just me who always wants to say Mark Gruffalo? :D) and RDJ are both so cute, I could be easily persuaded...

8 Harry/Draco Drabbles from LDWS
Apr. 1st, 2013 07:58 pmBefore the drabbles, I wanted to post my beautiful banner from the ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
slythindor100 LDWS contest.
I know it would be more cool to pretend I was not super super excited to win, but I was. SO EXCITED. In fact every week was SO EXCITING. I loved this contest (and hated it in equal measure when I read the evil prompts and word counts each week, heh).
I also wanted to thank the very lovelyomi_ohmy who betaed them all, encouraged me, and did flailing and bouncing with me every week. ♥
All of the contestants' drabbles are here, if you missed them, and under the cut are mine. I think I was most pleased with weeks 2, 3, and 8.
( This way for drabbles )

Signal boost for the WANKING COMMENT FEST
Mar. 26th, 2013 09:28 amWhen I posted about bringing back wankfest recently, people were heartily in favour of it. We had badges, and t-shirts and all sorts.
NOW OUR PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED!
Thanks toalby_mangroves...
Any fandom, any rating, any character or pairing as long as there's masturbation.
Art, Gifs, Fic - whatever you feel like gripping firmly. No pimp banners because it's just me and my hand, here at my desk. At work. Ahem. What are you wearing?
It's mostly Merlin prompts and fills at the moment, but I've started you off with 3 HP prompts as well. And let's face it, any wank is a good wank. Hoorah!
YES, I WANT TO JOIN THE WANKFEST!
(Maybe someone will do ART...)

Dear dustmouth,
I am sure you have long ago fallen over, and i hope you are now sleeping soundly, having had a joyful day, but it is still your birthday HERE, so I don't completely fail. It's a semi-fail. I did, however, fail to finish your present (and fail by about a billionty at getting it to you). So you don't get inappropriately excited, here is the WIP, and I hope you like the idea, at least. I would certainly have finished the outline today, but I ran out of navy thread (and I was only using navy thread because I'd run out of black... you see how well-thought this whole project was). I love to sew, but I can't remember the last time I did. There are always babies around. My children saw me sewing and said "What are you DOING?"
Anyway, this is to say a small THANK YOU for all the lovely arts you give us. ♥ I have no idea why I thought you would like an ineptly sewn copy of your own work, but there you have it. :D I will send it to you when it's done and you can use it to clean up spills with, or something ;-)
Sirius' eye was HARD. This was second attempt and it's still not right. If I unpick it and redo with a felt tip, please pretend not to notice :D

Last few hours to vote...
Mar. 21st, 2013 08:08 pm... in this week's H/D LDWS contest. There are only 3 drabbles to read this week, so you could probably manage to get the job done and dusted in two minutes if you were so inclined. Of course, you could also eke it out, letting your finger linger over the magic button and wringing every possible drop of pleasure from the whole process (no, I have no idea why innuendo seemed like a good idea at this particular point).
And wish me luck, because, ruddy nora, it is getting a bit hard on the nerves :D

veridariTwo H/D recs and a video
Mar. 17th, 2013 09:12 amI have been up for hours and am feeling all bouncy and buzzy. This afternoon I will eat cake, and probably crash, but for now I can bring you these lovely gems that I have discovered.
( Click for gems )
( Click for gems )
I know you all knew this a gazillion years ago, but this is the first I heard of it. They filmed a scene in DH2 where Draco breaks ranks from the crowd of Death Eaters and ran past Voldemort to throw Harry his wand...
And David Yates talks about it here:
"There was also a moment where Tom … we had this scene. In this scene where Tom throws Harry a wand, which is a big deal – a hugely different ending. It’s not a different ending, it’s a different moment. And we thought, “Oh my god, is that too much of a turnaround for Malfoy?” So Malfoy suddenly becomes a good guy – so that’s what Steve [Kloves, screenwriter] wrote.
Actually it felt really uplifting and you went, “Oh cool.” But when we put it all together, I think [producers] David Heyman – and David Barron in particular – were concerned about it because they didn’t feel it was most effective for the character, where Steve and I were quite keen because we thought, “That’s a really uplifting moment.” But we cut it out eventually..."
I am gutted. I actually, really feel quite strange and upset about this. I am sure I will get a grip in a bit. But meanwhile *sob* *sniffle* *throws self on flist's bosom for comforting*
p.s. I also laughed quite a bit at all the "Voldemort has a NOSE?" comments on the video :D
E.T.A. I just made poor Mr Birds sit down and watch this. I said "look look LOOK OMG!" He watched it carefully and said "Whoa, Voldemort has a NOSE!!!"
O.o

I just got the hd_smoochfest prompt I wanted! ♥
I did not get chucked out ofslythindor100's drabble contest yet! ♥ (I reckon it was a close thing this week). And there's a new prompt in an hour and a half.
hd_remix and bottom_draco started posting today! ♥
By the way, what is the etiquette for commenting on adaptation fics / art when you are not familiar with the original? I can't really say "This looks great and I can see you've put a lot of work into it. However, I don't know any of the characters or get any of the jokes. Bye!"
Conversely, if I only comment on the ones I know about, that will be about 4 fics. O.o
I am the H/D monthly reccer atcrack_broom this month! ♥ Erm. I had really better think about what I am going to rec.
Finally, you have to see this monster Lego model Hogwarts a fan made. ♥ The detail and scale of it is stunning! My boys want to know why I don't do cool stuff like that. We have had such fun looking at all the different rooms and discussing the scenes. There's going to be videos and timelapse of the set up in a week or two, so I am looking forward to getting over-excited all over again. Hooray for you too, Alice Finch, you crazy superb Lego lady!

Title A Princely Scent
Author
birdsofshore
My own prompt: Armpit fetish
Kink Showcased: Armpit / sweat fetish (maschalagnia, apparently - who knew?)
Rating: NC-17
Pairing(s): Harry / Draco, Draco / other characters (in fantasy only)
Summary: An underarm is so delightfully clandestine, a truly secret little area of the body, almost shockingly sexual when finally revealed.
Warnings/Content Notes: Mild voyeurism, light bondage, frottage, wanking, and a blow job
Word Count: ~5000
Author's Notes: I am a happy admirer of armpits myself, and I wrote a little armpit moment into one of my fics recently. The reaction I got from one of my readers made me realise that this could be worth exploring further...
Thank you so much toomi_ohmy for taking on yet another challenging beta job.
Thank you tomarianna_merlo for kinky enthusiasm.

Also,
veridarislythindor100. There will be 12 H/D drabbles to choose from. The prompt is "Accio." Please watch the community to read them and vote for your favourite. ♥ I am worried this is not going to get all the adoring reads it should, because there are some potential reasons to be put off. I will tell you all the reasons you might THINK you won't like it, and then explain why you are soooo wrong. :D
First, it's athp_kinkfest, and that's not everyone's cup of tea. But this is not kinky or scary. Well, it's a leetle bit kinky. But only in a good way. There's nothing that should upset (except, maybe, the atrociousness of one of the jokes. JUST KIDDING).
Second, it's got a threesome in it, and it's one some people find a bit problematic: Harry/Draco/Snape. But would you really begrudge Snape a share of the smutty goodness that H & D can bring to his life? You would? You hard-hearted devils! Read this, and feel ashamed when you contrast your own meanness with Harry's open-hearted goodness (and then you can get all flustered at the hot emotional dynamics between the three of them, heh).
Third, and there's no getting round this, it's, erm, about having a fetish for lollipop ladies / crossing guards in uniform. STEP AWAY FROM THE BACK BUTTON. This may cause you to believe that this fic is perhaps a little less than serious and dignified at all times. And you may, strictly speaking, be correct. It is an absolute hoot. But it's also hot and touching, and has moments of poetic wistfulness, and gorgeous observations about people's motivations and reactions. I adorewho_la_hoop's light and tender touch with kink, and the playful, romantic mood that surrounds all the wit and sauciness.
The fourth reason is: there is no fourth reason. In fact there is NO REASON that you should not immediately go over the road tohp_kinkfest and read this work of genius. Off you go, now. Hold hands at the crossing, and remember to thank the nice lady.
(I am sure you have all read who_la's fics before, and know they are all joyous things, so none of this would have put you off anyway, but I just wanted to draw your attention to this fic's existence, just in case :D)
Title: An Idiot's Guide to Crossing the Road
Author:who_la_hoop
Prompt Number: #266 submitted bybirdsofshore Snape really likes Muggle lollipop ladies. Consequently he spends a lot of time crossing the road.)
Kink Showcased: Uniform kink (lollipop person/crossing guard)
Rating: NC17
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco, Harry/Draco/Snape
Summary: Snape can't really be alive . . . can he? But why is someone with his face lurking about around a certain lollipop lady? When Harry and Draco discover the truth, it's possible their lives will never be the same again.
Content Notes/Warnings: EWE. Live!Snape (being dead puts a crimp on your sex life, after all). H/D established relationship. Sort of public sex. Threesome. Unattractive uniforms. Mild spanking. Wanking. Blow jobs. Bad jokes.
Word Count: ~10,000
Author's Notes: I am not quite sure what genre this fic is. It's a bit cracky. But also a bit dirty. So, er, dirt-crack! Or crack-dirt, if you prefer. Either way, the blame for this can firmly be placed with Mr Birds, who prompted this in jest. Though maybe a teensy-weensy bit of the blame can be appointed tobirdsofshore, for not disciplining her man firmly enough. Let them both serve as the Awful Example – never prompt anything unless you actually want to read it :D
PS. I have modified the pairing, to suit the 'plot', so apologies to anyone who was looking forward to Snape shagging a Muggle lollipop lady, you'll have to put up with the multiple cocks instead.

The lovely
marianna_merlo has started this Boston meme, to get local people in contact with one another. I'm not from Boston, but I know some of my flist are from Boston, because I've seen you talking about it. But I can't remember who you are! Please go and comment and spread some fandom love around Boston. ♥p.s. If you type Boston loads of times, it starts to look really weird. Boston. Boston. See? Boston. It's making my head go funny.
