Muscles Better and Nerves More

( Short and slightly salty )

( Just like Aberforth, Chuck Norris deeply admires and respects goats. )

The Dark Knight was fucking awesome. I love a story that pulls no punches and this was definitely one of those stories. Heath Ledger as the Joker was absolutely brilliant, and if the stigma of superhero/sci-fi/fantasy movies robs him of the Oscar, I will lose all respect for the Academy for srs. I don't care that it has to be posthumous; he deserves it.

The Prophecy Overheard

Rating: PG

Characters: Snape, Dumbledore, Trelawney, mentions of Lily Evans

Disclaimer: All characters and related concepts of Harry Potter are the property of JK Rowling, WB and its publishers. No personal profit or commericalism is intended.
A/N: This story reconstructs the night Severus Snape spied upon Dumbledore and Trelawney in the Hog's Head. I apologise for any canonical misinformation such as incorrect dates. I poured over the books to get the specific information right.
Summary: In choosing to listen in on Sibyll Trelawney's interview that fateful October night, Severus Snape failed to realize how much he would suffer for his choice, nor how much would be lost on all sides for his cowardice. 

This is the post for all discussion, squeeing, rantings, and overall opinions of Episode 3x17 - The Ember Island Players.

...with her fox demon from InuYasha.

Story Title: Luna and Silver Moon
Fandom: The Lord of the Leggy
Culprit Author’s Name: EragonsGirlfriend. Oh, that’s promising.
Summary: Another elf in the fellowship? And she’s with Legolas? Read as Luna a rare blue haired elf join the fellowship and learn more about Legolas then we ever knew before! With her buddy Silver Moon!

And more than we wanted to know, I’m sure.

Full Name: Luna the Elf.
Full Species: Elf—what, didn’t you read the name?
Hair Color(s): “I was a rare birth, for my hair was the color of lavender mixed with some sky blue.” Blue-haired—but lavender. I wish she would make up her mind.
Eye color: I have no idea, but they too are unique and special.
Scary Sue: “His name was Dulin, which means ‘nightmare’ in elf. He was as cocky as they get, and he was very rude to me. I had once bitten him, and he took it as a love bite! So I bit him harder to draw blood and he never looked at me the same. I couldn’t hate him more but was too afraid to dishonor my parent’s choice.”
Unusual Markings/Colorations: Aside from the blue hair, none that I could find.
Special Possessions: A fox demon named Silver Moon. I suspect it is a rip-off of InuYasha. And she also owns Legolas’s creeping manhood. Don’t ask.

Annoying Origin: “I was born in the same town as Legolas, Mirkwood. I was a rare birth, for my hair was the color of lavender mixed with some sky blue. I was born roughly 20 years before Legolas but no one really counted. My family was high ranked but no one knew how high. As a young lady I was quickly adapted to a bow and a sword. My bow was my best friend. I was always practicing my archery, and got to be one of the best in the land.” I really wasn’t aware that Mirkwood was a town.
Annoying Connections to Canon Characters: Trains Legolas in both the art of archery as well as sex. Whee.
Annoying Special Abilities: She can mend dishes with a wave of her hand and a mumbled word, which are part of her “misunderstood powers,” as she describes them. She can also contact Legolas with her MIND, and is an expert archer. The best in the land, as I’m sure you saw.
Other Annoying Traits: She talks like a twenty-first century valley girl and uses rape for added angst but quickly forgets about it once she gets Legolas’s sympathy.

Please include a small sample of the worst of the story:

( The Sue is selected to train the naïve young Legolas how to shoot bows and arrows. That means he has to strip down and show off his ripped abs. BUT ENTER THE SCARY SUE!!! )

( And then the fic degenerates into a very badly detailed travel log. Oh yes, and Legolas is a giant pussy. )

It is so good to be sporking again. My apologies if this has already been featured here--I've been rather out of the loop when it comes to sporking as of late. But hopefully, I'm back!

Title : Found Through Translation
Author : owl_in_paris
Rating : PG this chapter, but the ratings are definitely going to jump.
Word Count : around 500, this chapter
Pairings : future AS/S
Summary : There's a French exchange student for Albus' last semester at Hogwarts...
Disclaimer : This chapter's pretty tame, but it'll get saucier in the near future!

Authors Note : This chapter's a bit meh, but it's a start and i'll be posting a chapter every day during celebration week. I do hope you enjoy this series, I know I will because it lets me speak my first (but not my best) language.

( found in translation )

One of my favorite things about the Remus/Sirius pairing is the long arc of their story--from Hogwarts pranks, to First War spy drama, to the post-Azkaban reunion, and then to the Veil. *sniffs and reaches for hankie* For my next few recs, I'm going to focus on fics and artworks that juxtapose different moments in the ship--we could call this mini-theme "before and after."

Let's start with an amazing fic that explores the process of memory:

Title: "you say that I treat you like a book on the shelf"
Gaining Access: public
Author: penknife
Length/Word Count: 3700 words
Alternate Links to Fic/Art:
Pairing: Remus/Sirius, past Sirius/James
Rating: PG
Author's Summary: They're both trying to arrange things so that they make sense.
Author's Website: penknifewrites
Why everyone should read this: This is a compulsively readable fic that also deserves to be reread, because it has so many layers of meaning. Moving between Grimmauld Place and Remus's memories of his earlier life with Sirius, this fic weaves together scenes that center on books and story-telling. Penknife boldly takes on some big themes--love, loss, memory, sexual identity--without ever becoming heavy-handed. Though this is a dark, poignant, and philosophical fic, it is also full of wry humor and vivid dialogue. An incredibly powerful story about the power of story-telling.
