Anons and others, thank you for the kudos over on A03! CKate, if you keep reading Harold and Morgan, you will finally see Tumnus make an appearance. Also, he’s in The Horse and Her Girl. Tumnus and Peridan can’t stand each other. It’s a total bromance and probably romantic. And thank you
blithers for the rec in
het_reccersSo, let’s see. With the sort of merging of old fandom friends and new fandom friends, I’m not sure any more where I should bitch about my brother and sister in law and the never ending power struggle involving the
bitch beach house that has now roiled over into a school fundraising activity involving pencils and erasers. So many lawyers in the family is so very much not a good thing (there are 5? 6? plus Grandma likes to sue without a lawyer because she doesn’t think she needs one) especially when coupled with a cultural proclivity toward rigidity and argument and a habit of carrying out warfare via email. The good thing about the last three years in this fandom was that I was able to quote back to a worried teacher who’d received an email bomb from my BIL about the pencils and erasers, “No really, it’s him, not you.” Or to quote my newly minted teen, “Haters are gonna hate, mom.”
Which brings me to pound cake and porn. The
porn challenge is underway and so here is the signal boost and the note that as
vialethe pointed out there is a real lack of Narnia porn thus far. I keep wanting to do something with Cor and Aravis but I’ve found myself really reluctant to write them after the wonderful work of
edenfalling which isn’t porn or pound cake but still highly sensual and has become complete head canon for me. And hey, I wrote
Caspian and Peter (sort of) for
snacky! And that
whole paragraph of the Revel in I love not man the less! And Maenad! And before that, other things. Really! Been there, done that, got the t-shirt and burned the negatives.
Which brings me next to the fact that yeah, the lovely anons notwithstanding, I continue to get hit, and in particular took one to the teeth recently. I have written a response which I have not posted, going back to my teen’s sage advice. Still, it rankles to stay silent when I'm instructed that fandom has changed since I entered it in the 1970s so I should just get with the program. Really, I can act my ancient age (unless it involves beach house selection with my in laws).
snitchnipped is proposing a big bang write in for Friday night so if you are interested, contact her but I think the timing is 9 PM ET. We’ll hang on Skype or in a chat room somewhere and motivate each other to sit down and write.
To that end, I somehow have managed to develop over 16,000 words of Harold and Morgan, Part 3, none of it postable. I keep thinking that I can write both the Big Bang and a Two Hearts Day piece for H&M at the same time and I'm not being real successful at it.
( blather in which Morgan engages in evasive tactics and massive rationalization )
