Jul. 23rd, 2007 07:05 pmSectus was awesome, more about that later, what I really want to talk about is Deathly Hallows.
Wow, I could hear the Oasis concert from my room, which is miles away from The Bowl, so well. Weird. A concert has never been so loud before, I don't think. It is nice to be a walking distance away from a big concert venue though, I can't wait for the Eminem one.
And it seems like today everyone is discussing Spoiler Policies and such, I will of course use cuts and things when discussing any, usually I am the biggest spoiler whore, read the ending almost before the beginning, (I always knew Sirius was Harry's godfather even before I knew who Sirius was, and I knew that Moody wasn't Moody) but since OotP when I found out about Sirius and I didn't want to do so my spoiler reading tendencies have changed. Well I still read the spoilers floating around right now, (I am not sure why, I am annoyed with myself for always having to click every stupid link) but I am refusing to believe them, a few sound like they are taken from badfic, but one will make me feel incredibly smug so I sort of hope it is true.
My legs hurt, my parents dragged me along for a country walk thing in the heat and I walked for hours. In a way it was nice, the countryside was pretty and there were lovely horses and rabbits and a deer! However it was too hot at times and my feet are not used to walk for four hours. The worst thing was that the pub in which we were going to have lunch in stopped serving food at 2, we of course got there at quarter past and so had to have crisps and peanuts for lunch and walk a couple of more hours before we could get back to the car. Despite all this it was fun, am not likely to do it again soon, but it was a nice and different way to spend day, thanks to a good map we hardly even got lost.
Spend entirely too many hours shopping today and as a result bought absolutely nothing. Zilch. I really wanted to buy something, I tried lots of things on but didn't like anything enough to buy it. I did however see Mr and Mrs Smith and really liked it, which is surprising considering the lack of plot and the constant fighting, but then again I've always known I am shallow and the hotness of the film was too much to be allowed, it was funny too which helped. Also, Adam Brody was in it and I love him. He also brings me rather nicely to the OC's season finale which finally aired here today, I was spoiled but some bits did surprise me. ( Thoughts including spoilers )
I have been reading the fics from big_bang_hd, so far I've read Wheel of Fortune and Queen of Hearts, it has been entirely too long since I've read any long and plotty H/D fics, especially post OotP ones and those two were really good for very different reasons, can't wait to read the other two.
The Goblet of Fire Trailer.
It is beautiful. GoF is my favourite HP book and I love every part of it so very much. I am more excited by the film than by HBP in some ways, I think because it is safe and known. The trailer is wonderful though, you can see how Emma's hair becomes better and beter each year (and by that I mean less and less like Hermione's) Not saying any spoilers but if you do see it, comment because I do want to talk about it very much! Wheeee, GoF!!!
I was sketching graphs till half eleven today, so I think that it has been a well spend day. :)
Hello <333
I am in a happy, happy mood. I think it comes from being productive, like I actually did work today. As in homework and also I didn't quite fail that maths test I did last week, like I thought I would.
I can't believe my last post was the drunk one, I was going to post yesterday, but every time I do with no drabbles I feel guilty and so I don't. Which is silly. And my calendar looks sad with all the empty squares where there are days I haven't posted. I want it to be all full. And I never even get close to it.
OMG America on Friday! Yay!!!! I will have to take tons and tons of pics and spam you all when I get back. :D
Haven't had time to read any fic today, but colourme_hp has given me a lot of pretty art to look at and squee over. A totally awesome community, very busy and very pretty. So much love for the fanart!
I don't really read much fic anymore, I don't really know why. I have a huge list of things I want to read, the majority of those being novel lengths and I just haven't started. And when all of you post fic, I always mean to read it, bookmark it and then don't. I mean I do read some, but it is very random what I choose to read. And it is never something I'd planned on reading. What is wrong with me? Why do I not read fic? I don't know why I am saying this, but I think it's to do with my love for fanart, I love looking at it and I am contuinuously looking for new fanartists to friend and fangirl. Maybe because art is something I can quickly look at, as well as review and it doesn't take too long. I guess the time reason is laughable, considering how long I spend online, just reading/refreshing flist when I could be reading. I think it is because I have lost the habit. Whatever it is, I hope it changes. Soon. This probably applies when it comes to writing, but I won't go into that now.
In other, better news, Smallville ep was actually good. And Smallville fic is something I actually want to read. And I am not sure where to find it, sure I can find lots of fic. But I want to read a recent novel length dealing with all the Clark/Lex interactions from this season. I don't know if this exists and if it does, have no idea how to go about finding it. It is so much easier in HP, if I am looking for fic, I know exactly where to find it. I know all the classics etc. But am without a clue when it comes to Smallville, that's a fandom that can sure do with a newby community.
And I remember there is a community with starter packs for all sorts of fandoms, but can't remember its name. If anyone knows it, I will be very thankful.
Wow, and to think I started this not knowing what I was going to say. And look what happened. Stopping now, or I will be needing a lj-cut.
I was meant to spend this weekend in a very productive way, but that plan sort of failed. At least I did the majority of my homework including an evil English essay and I wrote fic. Am still ill. It is most annoying. Have a horrible dry cough, that feels like I am choking, even though I am not.
So I have come to the conclusion that waiting till I write all the V-Day drabbles I promised until I post them is not going to work, because in less than two weeks I will be in America and won't be able to write/post them for ages. That is why I am going to post things as I write them, that way I won't appear horribly late.
This one is just short of 1500 words, and this is with me forcefully cutting it down. I don't know how it happened, oh well. I quite like it.
This is for jetami who requested Harry/Draco, hot. Hope you enjoy!
Summary: A school trip goes wrong as Harry and Draco get stuck in a magical cave rumoured to influence people’s behaviour.
A/N: This is unbetaed, if you spot any mistake please tell me. And reviews make me *very* happy. :D
( Harry/Draco, R. )

Well that was fun. What do you think?
Right, so writing all drabbles for today totally didn't happen, but as there are so many squeeful things everywehere on LJ today no one will mind. And as you get them in a couple of days, it will be nice as there won't be overload of fluff and stuff. Also it will mean that I will be capable of writing something that doesn't contain love and mushiness, because frankly I am getting tired if it. Oh and all day it was the most horrible torture to be unable to see any of the Hardcore Valentine Day cards, because every single post on my flist has them and I didn't even know what they were. Well now I can see them. Finally. Some are truly disturbing, some are quite nice. But for once I will not be a sheep *resists*
Oh and some of those ficlets decided to get a plot along the way. I appologise.
And now for the one drabble I am posting today. Because it is 100 words of H/D dialogue. :D
This is for anna_bonita, because she said she wanted something sweet and fluffy and H/D, leaving me to choose the prompt.
“Do you love me?”
“What are you talking about Potter?”
“Answer the question.”
“Well…I…”
“Draco.”
“Harry.”
“I love you.”
“You do?”
“Yes.”
“Oh.”
“Oh?”
“Um… Potter, why are you doing this?”
“This?”
“Yes!”
“…”
“You are ruining a perfectly nice dinner by being…well. You.”
“I’m so sorry for being me. Won’t happen again.”
“Don’t be ridiculous.”
“Me? I am ridiculous?”
“Harry. Harry, look at me.”
“Go away.”
“Harry, please. I’m sorry.”
“Good.”
“I do. I love you.”
“You do?”
“Yes.”
“You are not just saying it so that I’ll shag you.”
“Well…”
“Draco!”
"Of course not. You’d shag me anyway.”
Hello. I wrote this odd little drabble today and thought I'd share. It is for once exactly 100 words and I rather like it. Anybody that tells me what they think gets a biscuit!
( Untitled, 100 words, Draco. )And now a request, well more of a plea really, I am willing to beg. Will anybody be willing to beta something for me? Please? It is just over 2000 words, H/D and PG/PG-13. ( further details, including bribes :D )
And lastly a very big slash survey which is rather cool in my opinion, please steal it, because I am interested in your answers.
( Slash Survey )And if you didn't take my Hermione poll please do so and tell me why if you have the time.
I wrote a drabble for xylodemon's Harry/Draco Drabble Project, the prompt is: Post-war, troops coming back.
Hmm, I am not sure why I haven't posted for a while. I have certainly been here, I guess I have nothing much to say, which is odd for me, and also not quite true.
So this will be long and rambly and behind cuts, but before that a quick rec.
Apocrypha by xylodemon is a wonderfully rich Severus/James. I hadn't realised how much that pairing appeals to me. This is seven parts and completed, the link goes to part one.
( Stuff )
And now a very simple poll. Because I have seen a lot of animosity towards Hermione and I am not sure why people don't like her. But that is for another post. Now I just want to know if you do, to see whether she is well liked or not. And this refers to canon Hermione.
