Birthday decadence.

[icarus]

There is something about taking a bath at one o'clock in the morning that is so decadent.

I've read porn... Ron/Draco from isiscolo, Harry/Ron/Percy from hp_femme, Harry/Snape from goseaward.

I've had steak. Served to me by the delightful and obedient (mostly) wildernessguru. I've had Haagen Dazs. I need some brie, but that can wait for tomorrow.

And I'm a year younger today. Due to poor math skills, but still.



1. Certain really good writers cannot write porn.
I don't know why this is. They write wonderful plots, terrific dialogue, vivid and very real description and emotionally intuitive characterisation. All the elements are there. But for some reason, their sex just becomes robotic or clogged with euphemisms or florid emotionalism. Or something.

2. 'Snarry', 'Snaco', etc ad infinitum makes me briefly shut my eyes and cringe. I mentally deduct 12 points from the IQ of anyone who uses these. Yes, even my friends.

3. I find the idea of chan hot, though I am disturbed by this. Most of the popular Chan stories, however, don't turn me on.

4. I don't like Sirius, and don't care that he's dead. If he were in my book, I would have killed him off too, just to remove the paternal figure and isolate Harry.

5. I think certain character death fics are brilliant. That said: I hate them all. I will read bestiality before I read deathfics.

6. Paradoxically, I believe that Harry will die in book seven.

7. All Mary Sues suck. Even good, well-written Mary Sues with excellent plots, characterisation and so forth.

8. Canon Draco hates Harry and Ron (and Hermione). In order for there to be enough change in Draco to even tolerate them, you have to change Draco. Thus Fanon Draco. Deal.

9. I can't really think of another opinion. I'm not much into these Fandom Meta things.

10. Oh. Yeah. In all honesty, I think it's fairly shitty for us to be using JKR's characters, especially since she hasn't finished her series. I chalk it up to an addiction. You know you should stop, but you just can't.

You mean the comment containing this?
Personally, I don't think he should have cheated on you. I think he should have left you. Long ago.
Go Percy!

I just spent quite some time going over Ron and Harry's old posts because I missed a bunch(thanks dungeon_watch.
I don't know how you guys keep up, it's really hard with so much going on.

I don't know about anyone else, but I haven't been able to, personally. ;)
