Man, the friendslist was bringin' it today!

Multifandom recs.

Harry Potter, but with mucho mass appeal:
I'm sure most people know this by now, but [livejournal.com profile] mctabby has commemorated the 30th installment of the cracktastic Summary Executions series with a Greatest Hits edition. 300 luscious horrors inflicted upon the poor defenseless English language, and of course the characters we know and fuck with mercilessly love, only some of whom are defenseless. Some are almost Zenlike: "Nagini plans to take matters into her own hands." "A story told by the eyes of someone unwanted."

Crossover crack, sort of; LOTR AND The Princess Bride. [livejournal.com profile] mollyringwraith posts a collaborative effort: The Lord of the Rings Movie Scripts, Done Entirely in 'The Princess Bride' Quotes. Not only is this a geek apotheosis, it works so brilliantly, terrifyingly well.

Good Omens AND Harry Potter: If you're a [livejournal.com profile] lower_tadfield regular, you probably saw [livejournal.com profile] blue_phlox's gorgeous portraits of four sexy Supernaturals. But if you only saw that one, and didn't follow the link to her own lj, you probably didn't see the gorgeous portrait of the young Sirius and Regulus Black, all decked out in their proud-Pureblood vintage. They're both here.

Good Omens proper, although it's quite improper: [livejournal.com profile] professor_mary presents very unusual SMUT: All Mine, in which the connections between the Horsepersons and the Them get explored in a very erotic and very creepy way. Is it a pairing or a three-way? Bit of both, really. (Adam/Brian/Implied Pollution, NC-17)


Harry Potter AND Lord of the Rings: [livejournal.com profile] thrihyrne has written a HP/Tolkienverse crossover that's just bloody brilliant: Of Dwarves and Stewed Lucius, here. Dodges and skewers all possible thought of cliche: Lucius Malfoy and Second Age Dwarves. Also more references to needing to relieve oneself than are found in the entire Tolkien corpus.


Go enjoy, and give these geniuses the love like it's your last rear at Hogwarts!

Snail balls, Gracie??

Augh, must return to Lions on a Banner, but SW fanfic is eating my brain and I'm having way too much fun. Got a WIP about Kir Kanos going on my LJ, he of the Imperial Guards and the samurai attitude. Aziriphale would like him for his honor, but Crowley would love how he can so seriously kick ass. :D

Oh, cool! Must go look!

I should add a caveat, no spattering blood in the story (yet). Kanos being such a trouble-magnet we'll see if he get thru the adventure in one piece. The whole thing is now on my website, since I've been posting the WIP in pieces. I've got the website link on my most recent LJ posting along with an illustration.

I also looked at 'Summary Executions' - ohh, my eyes, my eyes!

Well, one of the summaries DOES refer to "Harry's perilous end". Ron's trying to get him to cut back on the curried chicken, but Harry's addicted.

And, you know, Snape and farts don't mix.

I know, ain't it?

That's from one of the Summary Executions, of course.

It's absolutely amazing how well that LOTR/Princess Bride thing works. Thanks for the link- I'll be marveling over that bit of genius for weeks to come.

Wow... thank you!!

Massive gratitude to you for the rec! I'm so glad that you read my crossover and enjoyed it enough to post a rec on your LJ. There is a lot of potty-ness in it, 'tis true… oh well. Dwarves and Lucius: they like their shiny things. ;)

Thank you, again!!
