Mass Pimpage and Johnny Depp links.

Remedy by mimesere (Wes/Gunn)

because it's fun and snarky and I loved it even though I don't follow the series.
_{(btw, there's a fic where the same boys are naked and chained to the ceiling and it's absolutely freaking *hilarious*, could somebody point me to where this is located?)}

[edit] The other fic is *also* by mimesere!!! GO READ.

Putting Down
SUMMARY: In which Gunn has a craptastic day.

wikdsushi's written Discslash! and it's Vetinari/Vimes!

It's preslash and it's slow with everything in shadows and implications and An Epic Battle of Confused Stares. Involves a baby, with an in-character and sharply dangerous Vetinari. (btw, no mpreg) and, y'know what? go check out the rest of 'er Discslash too.

spike21's written more Sands/El. Read White Cane and please leave more of a coherent response than I was able to? cool, thanks.

[]

Also, have ya'll read lil_neko's humo caliente series (Sands/El) yet?
It's just gotten better and darker and more grimed the futher it goes, in a wince-worthy kinda way...

Crucible by guede_mazaka (El/Sands/Lorenzo)

First of all? I don't usually like threesomes. But I'm *really* glad I checked this one out.

I love the interaction between all the characters, and even Fideo, Lorenzo was made understandable, everybody's history showed through in their actions

and Sands? some very inventive cursing, a very interesting reaction to certain events, and just.

SO. very. ravished.

::massive squee:: Goodness.

but guede_mazaka takes a good 9,000 words or so to get there so you're in for a very good ride. (or as hippediva metaphors more gracefully, the 'jangling harmony' of everyone's vocalisations)

And don't worry about the intimidatingly huge inital paragraphs, they're worth it.

The Tempest by sparrowhawk723 bring up some interesting images of Bootstrap Bill that I'm not sure have been touched on yet. I'm not quite sure if I could pin down why I like this fic so much but there it is.

Do you want to see a Naked Jack? sure you do! ::grins::

Warning: NOT WORKSAFE

This update in Howard Dean's blog made me think of sistermagpie's questioning the use of the term "UnAmerican." Am wondering just how far Dean is relying on pent up America's resentment of our government being "UnAmerican" and if it would work.

In theory I think it's gorgeous and awesome that Dean's calling for the people to help him take back our government. I'm just hoping that it'll work and that it won't get him assasinated or something. (::coughKennedycough::)

mauralabingi has a wonderful current project transcribing The Mysteries of the Court of London there's a link to what has been transcribed so far and it's...well. She can explain it better than I can.

Entertainment Weekly article on Johnny Depp

[]

"['Train' is set] in Los Angeles in 1953, it tells the overlapping stories of an African American caddie, a jaded police detective and the victim of a horrible crime. Its three-character structure and noir tone would make it a fine candidate for a movie; Dexter said Martin Scorsese had read it and expressed interest but couldn't fit it into his schedule. Dexter [the author] even had a casting suggestion for the lead role.

"Johnny Depp," he said. "I think if you told him he was going to play a 19-year-old black kid, he could do it. It'd be a challenge, but he's talented enough to pull anything off."

- from here

::ponder:: Y'know. I think I could see that.

::laughing so hard::

after schlepping around on metaquotes for a few weeks now, i can only be amazed by the sheer complexity and random absurdity of this internet-based phenomenon known as "slash." not that i would begrudge any pretty fictional character the right to arbitrarily bugger slap-silly any other character--far from it. let there be beautiful men frolicking in unlikely sexual pairings! that's my motto. but this having been said, i'd like to add the following: poor, poor Johnny Depp. i bet he thought he'd escaped the bootylicious purgatory of fanfic.

- from wicked_wish

go read the rest of it. ::giggles and shakes head:: poor Johnny indeed, never asked for the baggage of being a celebrity, but what can you do when you're born with bone structure that stunning?

[]

have you seen the current_affairs community yet? It's political slash, proof and ramblings.

[]

oh, and read this post in metaquotes AND IT'S COMMENTS. I think the comments are almost better than the post itself...

[/endpimp]

(no subject)

I think it may be me but the sky is amazingly blue today.

Like an amazingly bright and blinding blue that just reaches out and *buggers* the eyeballs.

or.

it could be the meds.

also? I keep getting randomly shanghai'ed by images from Crucible(...lovely gunfights, and wonderful snark, and gaaaaah, ravished Sands...)

::clicks friendslist::

ooo! more fic! pretty!

however. am homeworkloaded tonite. mass pimpage will have to wait. ::pout::
