Relationships: Arthur/Eames (Inception)
Characters: Arthur (Inception), Eames (Inception), Robert Fischer, Original Characters
Summary:

In which Arthur's biology hates him (and the feeling's mutual), Eames' patience is sorely tried indeed, and the future of the educational system is on the line. A sequel to The Revolution Will Not Be Civilized.

So, last night I read this article speculating about what Nolan intends to do with his last Batman movie. (Link contains spoilers for previous Nolan Batverse movies, and speculation about the next one.)

THIS IS RELEVANT TO MY INTERESTS OK.

( Cut for potential spoilers and semi-coherent ranting about Batman. )

So I truly, dearly hope that TDKR takes the path aligned in the article. Both because the sheer meta of it makes me intensely happy, and because, on a perfectly shallow level? The possibility it suggests for John Blake is just YUM. :D

Wrote 3 ficlets for cherrybina's fluff meme:
- House hunting with a super-picky Arthur
- In which Arthur bites Eames for stress-management (inspired by a twitter convo that also had skellerbvvt write this)
- Revolution!verse ficlet, with baby

(On that subject: I planned on adding a two-line plot-fix to The Revolution Will Not Be Civilized a minute ago, but it turned into a complete scene and it went in a direction I didn't really want, so... um. LATER.)

For starlingthefool and msilverstar: ( A thing about original fic. With trains. And luck-based magic. And arranged marriage. )

In recent years, there's a growing trend in Israeli society of ultra-orthodox Judaism growing stronger and stricter, and pushing women out of the public sphere whenever they can.

( The situation at it is now. Cut for length and sexist language. )

So it's clear the situation is fucked up and must be protested. Our protest will take the form of a sing-in - a group of women standing in a public place, all singing together. Because we are equal citizens, and have a right to speak - or to sing, as the case may be. We will not be silenced.

Here's hoping it stirs something.

I posit the following case: ( SPOILERS AHOI. )

DISCUSS.

via krytella and metacheese:

Comment with a number/numbers from the list below, and I will explain whichever number you choose.

1 Five ways to my heart.
2 Something I feel strongly about.
3 A book I love.( Read more... )

My name is Dana, and I've been off Twitter for 3 days. And my productivity at work is showing for it - if fear is the mind killer, twitter is the time eater.

On the other hand, no words are happening as yet. Trying not to give myself a hard time about it, and hoping inclination to write comes back soon.

Got a new fandom LJ, to cross-post things from here - I'm the_ragnarok_d if anyone wants to add me there. I'm probably going to remove most fannish people from the other LJ and put the RL updates there, so if anyone cares for those, lemme know and I'll keep you there.

Things I want to do, fandom-wise, when I get the spoons:
- A post about my competence fetish, aka why I like Petyr Baelish best of all the Song of Ice and Fire characters. (Recap: I have no idea, but I really do.)
- Post some fic ideas, and possibly pull a WIP-amnesty thing - I don't think I'll ever finish the owl!not-really-AU. Or do a list of all the sequels I want or wanted to write at some point. Because I am made of sequels.
- Go over ae_match and put together a proper reclist. Because.

Meanwhile:
- skellerbvvt has started an Animorphs/Inception crossover, and it's bound to be magnificent. Go on, read it; it got me to start re-reading The Host (again. sigh), so you know it's good. <3
- cobweb_diamond wrote ~2000 words of Doctor Who/Harry Potter crossover fic, featuring 8-year-old Harry Potter, the Doctor, and Amy & Rory Pond. Go tell her to write moar!

(aka the nipple play fic I started earlier, now finished and beta'd!)

Relationships: Arthur/Eames (Inception)
Summary:

The worst of it, Eames discovers, isn't the sheer humiliation of knowing he's wearing a goddamned bra.

No, that would be the itching.

- Yesterday: Went to a GoT-themed dinner-party to celebrate study-buddy's birthday. His GF went all out: like 5 different courses, plus side-dishes, plus ~decorations on the theme. And it was all delicious. I know the awesomest people.

- Today: Went to a second-hand sale and got an awesome new dress. Also a shirt, and also a purse for the lizard-in-law. Then got home and rushed to ready things for dinner.

- My new therapist appears promising. Meanwhile, trying not to tie myself in knots over Stuff. Contemplating making a post with useful/interesting links about depression, just in case anyone would like that.

- Horrible idea for a fic that will probably go nowhere: ( GoT, pairing may be a spoiler for 5th book. also, TRIGGER WARNING for everything horrible )

- Also, Vimes/Vetinary. I have issues with that pairing (mostly summed by wailing BUT SYBIL, because I love her so), but if there was ever a pairing that called for g-rated kink, this is it. Especially if that kink is service. And even more especially if the way Vetinary tries to throw honors at Vimes at the end of each book is a weird kind of platonic edging. (yeah I don't know. just. my brain. /o\)
Also, Sybil could totally rock a non-monogamous arrangement. It's Sam that would be hard to budge. /opinion

- Got this from unvarnishedtale: Book-scented perfume. I've been saying for a while this should exist. And it does! \o/

- inception_crit is a new (to me, at least) community where authors can post their stuff to get constructive criticism. I've posted a fic - need to reply to the lovely crit note I got and do some crit of my own. Hopefully tomorrow.

Three recs, two fairly recent ae_match stuff and one long overdue:

- Don’t Call Me Cottontail by unvarnishedtale with art by red_rahl. In which Arthur and Eames turn into bunnies for a dream. Perfect fluff, pun definitely intended.
- 79) That cephalopod-launcher is insane; please bring a proper gun next time, by unvarnishedtale and immoralcrow. Because. Dude. CEPHALOPOD LAUNCHER. Cracky and hilarious. Also don't miss comment art by red_rahl here, and the mini-sequel inspired by it here.
- This was written ages ago for a prompt I made, and I'm only now reccing it, WHERE DO I LEAD MY SHAME /o\: A fic in which the entire team cuddles, by aliassmith, and it is just as awesome and sweet and adorable as it sounds. SO LOVELY.
