Disclaimer: This is a work of fanfiction, written purely to entertain myself and (with any luck) a few others. The world and characters belong wholly to J.K. Rowling, and I lay no claim to them whatsoever! If you're reading this journal for non-fanfiction-related reasons, do not click, this will probably not be your cup of tea. If you are nodding impatiently because this is totally your cup of tea, I hope you enjoy and remember that all the fanfiction comes down on September 6th! Public Service Announcement: After September 6th, there will be a PDF up here for a month that people can download and keep. I won't make the PDF until after the stories are all done and I won't be emailing the PDF to anyone - so now everyone knows what the deal is with the PDF, and will not email me asking for it! (Really, I have now automatically written an email to someone telling them they couldn't have it - when they hadn't asked for it. I was so, so embarrassed. I blame myself for being unclear before.) Dedication: This is for blackbird0414 - happy birthday! ( Quality of Mercy Links )( Quality of Mercy, R, Chapter 25 )Tags: all coming down, quality of mercy

While I was at W**-M**t buying my own copy of Twilight, I noticed an infestation of OTHER vampire romance novels all over the bestsellers shelves. I poked my head into Dark Needs at Night's Edge by Kresley Cole because it sounded vaguely promising. Neomi, insubstantial and glammy ghost ballerina, is bound forever to haunt her property, unseen by all. Fortunately, entertainment arrives in the form of Conrad, a slightly looney vampire whose specialties are frothing, gnashing and -- hooray! -- viewing Neomi. Plot ensues. This one was hilarious, primarily because of Conrad. If you follow the link, you can read an excerpt from the book, which portrays his internal monolog as follows: "Tales of his insanity spreading once more. I've never missed a target -- how insane can I be? He answers himself: Very fucking much so." To such inane rhetorical questions, Cole also adds constant, redundant commentary on the action: "Just as his hands are about to meet around the Lykae's corded neck, the beast claps something to his right wrist. A manacle? Clenching harder, he grates out a rasping laugh." Furthermore, Cole makes Conrad curse constantly, just in case you haven't realized how BAD-FUCKING-ASS he is, okay? Conrad, incidentally, does not come across as particularly bad-ass. He comes across as a weirdo with a puppet show in his head. I can't tell you what happened in the rest of the book because I didn't have time to finish it, but I assume that Neomi and Conrad had sex [somehow] and then lived happily ever after, at least until Neomi caught a whiff of his internal monolog and laughed so hard that she dissolved.

Velde reimagines the vampire romance genre with Companions of the Night, a 1995 story of teenaged Kerry, whose trip to the laundromat to retrieve her little brother's teddy embroils her in torture, kidnap, robbery, arson and murder. When she defends Ethan against vicious kidnappers, she discovers that she got more than she bargained for, as Ethan is sneaky, unreliable and vampiric. Nevertheless, she must trust him and even adopt some of his tough, duplicitous ways if she is to rescue her family from an unhinged vampire hunter. Tags: books, vampires

Busy work week. Thus, I must dive into fandom and post stuff! *escapes reality* Title: - I’ll always hate you for that Torchwood Comic One-shot - 6 pages Character - Ianto/Jack, Ianto/Owen unrequited Rated: PG Warning: slash and angst. ... hints of Spoilers from Fragments. Disclaimer: Does not own Torchwood nor its characters. Note:silversolitaire is me saintly beta. Thanks so much for putting up with me hon. :D For talcat, who requested Ianto/Jack kissing with Owen Jealously watching. ( The first day I met him, Cardiff had one of the worst storms that year. I really should have taken that as an omen. )Please don't hotlink... Download if you like, but please do drop me a message before you repost anywhere :-)?
