+1 Rec

Jan. 16th, 2009 05:29 pm
I was so close to not having school today >.< Damn lucky spots in the power outage.

What's new? Ded. I can has it.

The way I see it, if I can survive from now until 1:00 p.m. on the 27th, then I will be set for almost the rest of the year. Except not, but I can pretend.

O HAI and also, grad comments  are due soon. Summing up four years of high school in 380 characters+ spaces. What I have so far: meh...

AND I ALMOST FORGOT: Reccing Time!

Title: And All That I Have is Thine
Fandom: axis powers hetalia
Author: Mithrigil Galtirglin

Things To Know: To quote wikipedia: "Hetalia Axis Powers is a manga and anime series by Hidekaz Himaruya placed in a World War-era setting in which the countries are represented by anthropomorphic characters."
...Think of it as shipping countries, basically.

Why This Fic Wins At Life: BECAUSE IT HAS CANADA Because [livejournal.com profile] mithrigil  portrays emotions and experiences so vividly. Her writing is simply stunning and I don't know how to describe it, but she makes you feel things when you read and I don't even know but it's just so lush and evocative and really really really really GOOD. *flails nonsensically* JUST. JUST GO READ. (knowing a bit of UK-US history might help. Alternately, you could just do as I did and click the link anyway)


Um, yeah. APH has kind of eaten my life. >.>
Can you tell?
DO NOT WANT.

Let's all hope this is a bad dream, shall we? Because otherwise, words cannot express the degree of EPIC FAIL.

... in happier news, I have recently decided that in order to dilute the torrents of teen angst that constitute the regular updates on this journal, I'm going to start a weekly rec thing. So each week, I'll pick a fic at random - maybe one I just read, or one that's been sitting in my memories for years - and squee about it here. The fics will be derived from fandoms I frequent, which means they'll probably be pretty pairing-specific. ... I don't think that last sentence made sense, but I think the overall message is clear enough.

So, let's get this thing started, shall we?

Here is Let's Not Tell Our Mums, by [livejournal.com profile] decor_noctis . It's RPS, which is a rare-ish thing for me, but I must rec it. It's Russell Brand/Noel Fielding, but goes no farther than PG-13 (the gasps of surprise are audible from here); the Russell voice is just lovely and spot-on, making this a really glee-inducing fic.



the holidays are so stressful. *headwall* )
... that sounds rather depressing, so here, have a Merlin rec I've been meaning to get to for ages!
It's by [livejournal.com profile] moonythestrals and it's the FRATBOY!ARTHUR AU


Take a moment to read that again.


Yeah.

So you kind of already know it's going to be epic in the most epic way possible. I don't think any description of mine can possibly do it justice, so here, have the summary: "Arthur, Merlin, frat brothers, the Dragon, Arthur's BlackBerry, script writing, shitty hip-hop music, Dogma, FATE & DESTINY - oh God I wish I were joking."

It is EPIC AWESOME, and EXTREMELY HILARIOUS and it has a sort of sequel that is all sorts of brilliance.
... Click it. You know you want to.





IF YOU HAVE NOT READ
THIS, THEN I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU'RE
FINISHING THIS PHRASE.

YOU MUST GO READ IT
NOW! OR ELSE YOUR LIFE WILL BE
HORRIBLY DEPRIVED.

EXCEPT MAYBE IF
YOU REALLY REALLY HATE THE
WINCHESTERS AND CO.

BUT EVEN THEN YOU
SHOULD CHECK IT OUT ANYWAY
BECAUSE IT'S AWESOME.

YES, THAT IS ALL NOW.
NO MORE HAIKUS WILL ARRIVE.
NOW GO READ THE FIC!

WHO'S GOT THE NEW ARTEMIS FOWL BOOK? 

DAMN STRAIGHT, PEOPLE, THAT'S RIGHT!!!! 

I GOT IT!

uh huh, uh huh, that's ri-ight, I got it, go me-e

Now, my thoghts (more of them)

WHERE THE HECK WAS TROUBLE?1 I really liked him. I think he and Holly should've gotten together. (No, I won't spare you my chiildish fantasies!!) It would've been cute. XD Other thoughts.... I think Minerva's character could have been a bit more developed... Maybe she should have teased Artemis a bit. 

But yeah, over all, it was a great read.
