Fools and Their Money, by treneka #
Gen, G, ~1000 words.
Fabulous and funny. Chikage plays at stock market. An impending disaster, you’d think? Heh. Read and see. I adored it. All the characters are IC, especially Tachibana and Chi whom we can see the most. I want to quote the entire short fic because there are wonderful bit after wonderful bit but I’ll limit myself with just one of them:
He was also strangely good at remembering things long after a true idiot could have been distracted from them. It was a talent that Tachibana’s parents had exploited many times in caring for their son. Tachibana might forget to take his vitamins or change his sheets or call home, but Chikage would helpfully remind him beyond all hope of pretending he forgot anyway. Worse, you just had to reward him for being helpful, because yelling at Chikage was like kicking molded gelatine: it caused a ripple, but ultimately didn’t change much.
“We could play together, if you taught me the rules?” Eager as a daisy in the morning.
It took a week of asking followed by a week of hopeful glances, until finally Tachibana gave in and explained the quotes.
“So you’re helping companies that need you, and someday they pay you back?”
“Or they suck your money into a black hole of bad management and a soft economy and you never see it again.” As usual, Chikage had blissfully ignored that part.

Death Note Post Script: an Unofficial Blooper Reel, by moonythestrals #
Light/L, R, short. Summary: You know all of those things that should’ve happened in the actual series, but didn’t? Yeah, I don’t either - but my brain made a valiant effort to uncover them at four in the morning.
Spoilers: For the entire series, just to be safe.
Meta!fic. In my opinion, very funny. I like watching bloopers, so I enjoyed this fic a lot. It’s even more amusing on the second reading or if you try to imagine it as ‘real’ mis-filmed or mis-drawn scenes. My favourite thing: Hermione!Misa :) And the thing that made me laugh out loud was the several reshootings of THE scene from vol. 7.
And to think that I wasn’t even going to read more DN fic :) I’m a magpie *sadface*

I found a new, shiny fandom! Yay! How I love this moment when I begin reading fiction in a new fandom. Like Mr James entering a supermarket where a sale is on. Who? Read the manga! (Helpful link to my very long GLOWING rec of Eroica.)
Well, it’s a veeeery old fandom actually. I simply discovered it now. And OMG am excited! So now I’m wallowing in Eroica fiction like a happy piglet in the mud.

Themed list: Come untouched
Posted on July 12, 2008

Come untouched: HP fiction featuring orgasm without direct stimulation
What I take:
- stories where a person comes without his genitalia being touched AT ALL. As in, the person’s body can be touched but NO touching genitalia and NO intercourse.
- come MOSTLY untouched. As in, the person is teased for so long or whatever that they come the second they ARE touched.
Won’t do:
- if a guy is fucked and comes without touching his cock.
- wet dreams won’t do either.
- no WIPs that have only a chapter or two written;
- no drabbles;
- do not bring fics you haven’t read;
- do not bring fics you didn’t like;
- do not bring fics the authors of which show no grammar or spelling skill even if you liked them;
- do me a courtesy, please, do not leave only a link. I’d be really grateful if you tell me (besides the title and author) whether the fic is a WIP or completed, what the pairings and the rating are.

Yaoi recs

Filed Under yaoi recs | 9 Comments
Since I started reading yaoi manga and have read and liked a considerable number of them, I decided to collect the links to those manga that I liked here.
A couple of things to know:
- I’m ‘omnivorous’, which means I read any genre and will give a go to any plot.
- That includes rape (which happens, like, in every other yaoi manga as the expression of undying love), incest, and shota(con). If you don’t know what that is, go read the corresponding articles in Wikipedia first. Otherwise, mind the genres and warnings, and if you know you don’t like something, simply don’t click the links. It’s not my task to cater to your kinks and squicks.
- If a manga is licensed, I won’t give link to places where to download it. If you want to read it, you’ll have to find it on your own. It’s not that difficult, seeing how many free manga-sharing communities and sites there are. But it would do good to support your favourite mangaka by buying her work!
