icarus: Snape by mysterious artist (Percy Pardon? by Snaples)

How about something fascinating and faintly mysterious? [livejournal.com profile] merrycontrary writes:

The Establishment for Gentlemen, by [livejournal.com profile] ursulakohl. Percy/ Penny, Percy/ Ginny, Percy/ OFC.
R for incest, lack of incest, mind-altering substances, original characters with names like Hardcastle.

This story is far more evocative of nineteenth century novels than your average fan fiction. The language is formal, the imagery sparse but effective. Percy and Ginny fit amazingly well into their roles as reclusive widower and saucy governess. Warning: there are some formatting problems, but if you can look past them, you'll be rewarded with a great story.

(Icarus volunteers to reformat story if [livejournal.com profile] ursulakohl is willing. I already tried, but it turns out I can only abuse my mod authority to delete. I cannot change entries, so I'd have to repost it in its entirety. But I saved my corrections.)

I'll try to get around to fixing the formatting (may be slow, my usual computer can't get online right now & probably has to be wiped & reinstalled.) But there are versions without the problems here (http://www.livejournal.com/users/ursulakohl/5737.html#cutid1) and here (http://www.thedarkarts.org/restrictedsection/fic.php?fic=tda:/authors/ursula/EFG.html), and you can usually deal with the linebreak issues by resizing your window.

I'm really impressed that you offered, though. (Sleep, however! Sleep before dealing with my failure to hit the "don't format" button"! :) )

Thank you.

And by the way, I owe you an apology for being so snappish yesterday. I was getting kind of punchy. Now that I've quit the ESL, I feel like life is doable again.

No problem, I consoled myself with naval fiction ;)

Laptop nearly functional again! (Just in time for me to leave my net connection & miss two weeks of class . . .)
