I haven't posted in gosh, almost a year and a half. But since it's Severus's birthday and I wanted to post this over on the archive anyhow, I thought, you know what? Let's!

Many Happy Returns
Snape/Harry, PG, 590 words

Unmitigated SCHMOOP that I have been meaning to do something with for a very long time indeed. Birthday cake fluff, for Severus, which makes me happee!

( Harry blushed a little. ‘I’ve sort of … been planning this for a while.’Collapse )

Hope everyone out there (is anyone still out there? :D) is lovely and having a marvelous new year. ♥!!

*peeks through fingers*

So. Hi!

I haven't posted in forever but I couldn't let today pass with nothing said at all.

I'm a member of this thing we call fandom, whatever fandom it may be at the moment, only because of a boy called Harry Potter. I wouldn't be the writer, reader, fan, friend, person that I am today were it not for him. Before HP, I never even knew such things existed! That people wrote stories and talked and discussed and expanded completely upon a universe. It was ... magical to find that sort of community, especially at that point in my life when I needed something special so badly. Reading HP and becoming involved in the fandom opened up two whole new worlds to me when I was just sixteen years old and I am eternally grateful for everything both the wizarding world and online fandom ever gave me.

I won't say anything about the film, other than that for me, it was perfect. I left the theater completely fulfilled and satisfied after having invested ten years of my life in this one thing, this one set of characters that I have come to love so dear.

I miss you guys. I'm so glad we all went through this together. I couldn't have asked for better people to know and grow close to and enjoy this with. I love you all.

Happy Potter Day!

♥ ♥ ♥.

So hell froze over and I got to go out of town for the first time in FOR. EV. ER. to lovely Lake Tahoe with my mom, my sister, and my niece just this last weekend and it was awesome. I won money and drank way too many Shirley Temples and got to take a long, luxurious bath in a ginormous bathtub the likes of which are seen only in hotels. Also, there were blueberry pancakes. Win, win, win.

And then of course, there was this:

Me: *watches Supernatural whilst getting ready*

Family: *inexplicably follows suit without complaint (!?)*

SPN: *angst, brother-touching, you know the drill*

Sister: They look like they're about to make out.

Niece: ... they are.

Me: *CHOKES OMG WTF* Hahaha OMG, whatever guys! *awkward laughter, deep shame at denial of, you know, REALITY BASICALLY*

Mom: *oblivious, thank God*

Sister: *arches eyebrow at television and not at me THANK YOU, LORD* Incestuous brothers, hm?

Me: *DYING ON MY INSIDES*

Sister: *shrugs, continues watching*

And ... that was the end of it. I just. WHAT?? I do not have a family that would be at all okay with my fandom side, honestly. Well, not the slash part anyway, which. What is fandom without slash!? Pfft. So yeah, that happened. It was a crazy mixture of 'omfg have they been reading my diary?!' paired nicely with 'ha, even people who are this far removed can see this shit on their first viewing!!'. CANON ALREADY, SHOW! Okay okay, more canon, already! :D

Sigh. Yeah. I go back to making birthday cake now. Carrot! With walnuts. Urgh. Walnuts ruin everything.

friday i'm in love // the cure

PROP 8 OVERTURNED AND RULED UNCONSTITUTIONAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Holy fucking shit. AT LAST. I am just. Unspeakably overjoyed. I don't even know what to do with myself. My niece just ran in and told me the news and just the fact that she was so excited to be able to tell me that gives me such hope for the future.

It's silly, but I totally want to write copious amounts of Shassie marriage fic, mostly of the 'Lassie it is now your LEGAL OBLIGATION to make an honest man out of me' persuasion!!

I just. Wow. I don't even know. This is huge.

*DANCE PARTY*

let's hear it for the boy // katty b

Inception. Let us talk about it!

I just got back from the theater and just. Wow. That was one hell of a movie. I just kept finding myself so ... impressed with what film can do these days, what it can be. How grand a scale things can be on. It was marvelous and I loved it. I don't quite know how to organize my thoughts on it just yet, there are simply too many of them. Though I continue to want Ken Watanabe's babies like burning. My gosh, he is so beautiful. Guh.

Is it too early to go hunting for some undoubtedly amazing Arthur/Eames? I feel like it might be too early, but a girl can dream. Ha, pun intended. Those two were so much fabulous.

It is hotter than balls here omfg, but I am off to make homemade pizza and contemplate my own psyche! Win? WIN. \o/

Dream a Little Dream of Me // The Mamas & the Papas

Happy 4th of July, America!

Also, uh, hey. :D

It feels crazy strange to be posting, but something about today just really made me want to. Maybe it's that I'm mega bummed that I don't get to see fireworks tonight and fireworks are probably in my Top Five Favorite Things Ever. Or maybe I just really wanted to use my Shassie popsicle porn icon, as it is both summery and made of win. Either way, here I am!

I swear, it feels like every time I post randomly I've got a new fandom. Though I've been watching Psych since it started and only in the last few months did it decide to go BOOM and start slashing itself for me. So ... yeah!

Anyway! How the hell are you? I miss you guys. Fr rls.

Party in the U.S.A. // Miley Cyrus

(  One thing about tonight's Supernatural. Seriously, just the one. Okay, maybe two :DCollapse )

Oh show, you hurt so good bad good.

Cheesecake Factory tomorrow. My tummy is pretty stoked about possible strawberry shortcake-ness. Nom nom nom.

Fearless // Taylor Swift

So. Supernatural, you know?

( Season. Premiere. And a spoiler for next week!Collapse )

Welcome back, show. I missed you so much.

This song feels so appropriate: ♥ Boys Boys Boys // Lady Gaga ♥

( In Which: I must satisfy the need to flail about True BloodCollapse )

And then there's So You Think You Can Dance. I can't believe it's already over!! I haven't posted about SYTYCD in SO LONG. Not since last season. This season flew by and then there's gonna be a NEW season in like three weeks, which actually feels kinda anticlimactic in a way cos, as much as I hate waiting til next summer for the new season, it's also that much more exciting and satisfying when it FINALLY gets here. ( Anyway, last night's finale!!Collapse )

Wow. Doing a post that was neither 'Hey, I'm leaving!' nor 'OMG I'm back!' feels ... strangely comforting. Like my life's finally developing some semblance of normalcy. Good times. Here, have a song :D

Creator // Santogold

Hey, guys.

Oh man, this feels weird. I feel like I've been gone for a lifetime. I haven't posted since, gosh, since January when everything decided to go abruptly to hell on me and even though I've missed you guys SO SO MUCH I just ... haven't been able to make myself post. It's been kind of a rough time for me, the past few months. Moving back to California was really hard and it hasn't been all that shiny since.

However, I miss you guys. And Half-Blood Prince just came out! And today's Jared's berfday! There are things to discuss! But just. I think I just finally decided that staying away when I didn't even really want to was lame and pointless. I don't know how much I'll be around, but I'll be around, and that's something, right? I love you all and I hope that your lives have been gorgeous since I last saw you.

*snogs wildly*

How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You) // Kris Allen

Also, can you perhaps tell from the song and the icon that I kinda sorta picked up a new fandom somewhere along the way? *hides*
