Title: Curious Arrangement
Rating: PG13[US] or M[Aust]
Summary: Lady Vivenne realises Lord Wyldon and Kel have deep feelings for each other that they would never act on. So she proposes a curious arrangement, that surprises everyone.
A/N: Written for Goldenlake. Thanks to the wonderful [info]q_sama for betaing ;D, and the other girls (you know who you are) for help and suggestions ;D. This fic turned out longer than I thought, so the first chapter doesn't actually have Wyldon in it :P. He's coming though :)
This fic is housed over at the_unseelie

-----

Chapter 1

“Impressive isn’t it?” A cool voice spoke from behind Kel. Startled, she fumbled the heavy tome as she spun around, reaching for a sword that wasn’t there. Seeing the Lady Vivenne of Cavall standing in the doorway, Kel relaxed. She suddenly felt quite silly, reaching for her sword in Lord Wyldon’s library at Cavall, where she’s been invited for a holiday.  )

I wrote some Alanna/George fluff! It was about time I got back to my original favourite couple :) Housed over at [info]the_unseelie

Title: I love winter
Rating (and Warnings): MA[Aust] or R[US]
Written for: Goldenlake Advent Calendar Prompt #1 - Winter
Summary: George has fun telling Alanna why he loves winter.
Notes: I was just thinking that I needed to get back to writing about my first favourite Tortall couple, when this came to me in the shower. :)

-----
( “I love winter,” George muttered as he laid another kiss on his wife’s beautiful bare skin. His hand caressed her thigh. )

I think I know why my Kel/Wyldon/Vivenne fic isn't getting anywhere.  The whole 1 man & many wifes/girlfriends thing kinda bugs me.  Just to be completely contrary and hypocritical, I have no problem with the 1 woman & many husbands/boyfriends deal :P  hmmm... anywho, moving on ... :P

I actually quite like the K/W/V trio, and I can see the ending with the trio living (and doing other things) together happily... but I just can's seem to see how to make them get there, without seeming to be out of character.  I've got bits and pieces floating around in my head but no idea how to fit them all together.  It just doesn't click.  It's like putting together a puzzle with one of the pieces missing: endlessly annoying and extremely frustrating.  You're so close, yet so far.  I just need to find that missing ... something ... and finally get all the other bits and pieces of the fic to click!  But my reflexive "wtf..." reaction to one man with many women is getting in the way.   I don't know if I'm good enough at writing this trio to pull it off. :S

Ahh well, maybe now that I've figured out why I'm stuck on this fic, I can get past it.  Hopefully soon!

Have you ever been in a long-term open relationship? What are the advantages and disadvantages? Do you think jealousy is more of an issue in a monogamous or open relationship?

Title: The 12 Dancing Pages
Rating: G
Written For: Goldenlake, the Fairytale Challenge
Fairytale/Nursery Rhyme adapted: The 12 Dancing Princesses
Summary: King Roald has a dilema, the 12 pages, Jon included, keep turning up every morning with worn out shoes, and absolutely no energy. Is this just pages being pages, or something more sinister? So the King enlists some help.
Notes: I loved this fairytale as a kid. :D I hope the switch between narrative voice and normal action/dialogue works alright.

-----

Once upon a time, in a far away land, King Roald had twelve pages in his palace, training to be Knights of Tortall; each one stronger and more able than the next. Year after year, many pages came and left the palace in Corus; there wasn’t usually anything out of the ordinary. But this year, these twelve particular pages caused the King a lot of worry.

One of the pages was Prince Jonathan, his one and only heir. ...  )

Check out this gallery of bizarre Megan Fox quotes. It's well, mind boggling to say the least.

Tell me what you think, is she really that dumb, or is it all an act, ... or maybe she's stoned?

Examples from the Megan Fox bizarre quote gallery:
"I don't want to have to be like a Scarlett Johansson - who I have nothing against, but I don't want to have to go on talk shows and pull out every single SAT word I've every learned to prove, like, 'Take me seriously, I am intelligent, I can speak.' I don't want to have to do that. I resent having to prove that I'm not a retard - but I do. And part of it is my own fault."

"Robert Pattinson and Zac - they're just too pretty with the big hair and the suits. And Rob is, what, 22? Zac is 21? That's a joke. Boys in their twenties are a waste of time. They have nothing to offer conversationally; they're immature. I feel like I have a better shot with someone in his thirties."

"Zac Efron is my obsession, we're the same person. We're not actually here, it's like Janet and Michael Jackson. He just puts on his wig and a dress, and it's me, and you don't know that. It's one of the greatest mysteries of all time."

Just saw this tweet on Laurell K Hamilton's Twitter :D  *gigglesnort* LMAO So endlessly amused right now.

Anitaverse/ Twilight Edward Cullen in Anita world he’d be arrested as a pedophile like any 80 yr old man sneeking into child’s room at night.

*teehee* I completely agree with this.  LKH=Win!

Title: Weiryn's antlers
Rating: PG-13
Length: 1012 words
Category: Tamora Pierce fanfic - Tortall verse
Summary: Numair is inexplicably drawn to (and by) Weiryn, leading to a fateful Beltane night. Or does it? ;)
Author's note: Written for the Peculiar Paring Ficathon on Goldenlake. I just realised this is my first slash. I'd imagined this fic differently at first, but it somehow turned out this way. Not quite sure how or why. But I guess I'll stick to it.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It started in the Divine Realms. The first time Numair laid eyes on him was a moment he’d never forget. He’d clung to Daine during the fight with the Skinners, and felt a great force pulling him through. It left him feeling rather humbled. Rationally, he always knew that there were greater powers than his own out there; but knowing it and feeling it are two entirely different things.

When he woke in the Divine Realms, the first thing he saw was a great big set of antlers, crowning a muscular man towering over him. Power clung to the big antlered man like a second skin. Numair knew he was in the presence of a God. And it excited him.

( Even though he'd been so worried about Daine in the Divine Realms, he couldn't forget the effect Weiryn had on him... )

Title: They called me the Piper
Rating: Australian MA15+ (erring on the side of caution, probably not safe for people under 15)
Length: 1314 words
Type: Tamora Pierce fanfic (Tortal verse)
Summary: Rispah gets a seductive late night visit from a mysterious ghostly presence
Author's Notes: Written for the Peculiar Pairings Ficathon competition on Goldenlake

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A chill wind kissed the back of Rispah’s neck. She glared at the windows as she shivered. A different sort of chill ran through her as she saw that the shutters were closed tight. He was here again.

She put down her quill and squeezed her eyes shut. No. This can’t be happening. Every other night, since the last full moon, he had come. He always came at the exact same time. If she glanced out the window, she’d see the moon, fat and round, at the highest point in the Corus sky. A cold finger caressed her cheek. She could feel his smile on the back of her neck.


The first night he came, she’d made a right fool of herself...

I keep seeing the ads for Law & Order: UK, and it's really really bugging me. They've changed the voice over guy and background music. This version is sooo bad and cheesy, and I just can't get over how ... well, pretentious it sounds.  The new voice over guy really gets on my nerves. 

Is it just me? Here, judge for yourself.

Oh by the way, let me point out that today's date is 09 August 2009.  Now look closely at the use-by date on the packet.

From Dr. Polidori's Lord Ruthven to Stephenie Meyer's Edward Cullen, the annals of vampire lore are filled with attractive, charming bloodsuckers. Which one would you most want to be bitten by?


View Answers

Asher, from Laurell K Hamilton's Anita Blake series.  His bite is orgasmic.  Literally.  That's his power.  Need I say more?

It's rather redundant to put Edward Cullen in this question because he doesn't bite humans.  duh.   Plus I'd behead him if he came near me.
