1. ae_match is off to an amazing start, SO MUCH FIC AND ART AND STUFF OCCURING OVER THERE RIGHT NOW. If you’re not already, and you want your flist to be glutted with A/E fic, I recommend heading over and watching the comm. My first contribution for ♥ Team Romance ♥ is as follows:
Title: And A Gunshot For Her Lullaby
Artist: platina Author:butterflythread
Team: ROMANCE~
Prompt: Bonds
Word count: ~1900
Rating: Fic- NC-17 Art- NSFW
Warnings: Mpreg
A/N: So the other day writing was being a bitch, as it is wont to do, and I got chatting with Yvi about kink bingo and kinks we never thought we'd read or write and such, like tentacles and enemas. Very long story short, this is what that chat ended up inciting. My CHALLENGE ACCEPTED trigger is definitively working. As usual, Lydia helped poke it. <3
After the number of firefights he’s been in, Eames figures he probably shouldn’t find the sound of rifle discharge so familiar and comforting.

I think most people are aware by now that I love interesting, particularly urban fantasy/paranormal twists, on Inception canon. My own alien and demon verses are a testament to how much I enjoy that kind of thing, and there’ve been some other great examples recently.
Pavlov’s Bell by whiskyrunner It doesn't surprise Arthur when he hears, eventually, that they've developed a reputation for fighting like cats and dogs-since, in a sense, they are those things. Catboy!Arthur and Werewolf!Eames. Heed the warnings, but seriously, this is just hot as fuck and a great example of how you can shove the weirdest shit into the canon setting and make it work. Did I mention it is hot? It’s really hot.
Like Lesser Birds On The Four Winds by metacheese (no summary provided) This is a Lovecraft-inspired fic. I love Lovecraft with a passion that borders on unholy and have toyed with the idea of writing something based on it myself, so this hits my buttons pretty hard. The imagery and way the Cthulu mythos is tied into dreaming, combined with the perfectly Lovecraftian ending, make this one of my favourite fics this week.
Thanks by kiyala They've known each other for centuries, but it's only now that they've gotten close. Arthur is so afraid of hearing three simple words from Eames that he forgets about another two that mean so much more to the fae. Basically, Arthur and Eames are actually fae, and so was Mal. I am adoring this fusion so hard right now, it works SO WELL, and is pretty much everything I love about melding fantasy with Inception canon.
3. Zelda3D came out. It is eating my life. There is a fucking reason this game frequently tops BEST EVER IN THE HISTORY OF GAMING lists. So many tears of nostalgia.
Cuccoos, bitches
4. There was going to be meta in this post about the use of first person in fic but this is getting kinda long already, so let’s make it about how I have been meaning to make a separate journal for slightly more formal meta and discussion of writing processes and practices in fandom, ala my academic work. But I CANNOT FUCKING THINK of anything decent to call it, which tbh is the only real reason I still haven’t done it. One of my first thoughts was ‘Justanotherfangirl’ but that is a) kind of twee and b)too long anyway. Please suggest things or post shit that might inspire me.
Poll I can barely title my own fics let alone a whole new journal halp
4. COMING SOON
