Two things:

First, you absolutely HAVE to watch the History Boys. It's one of my favorite movies of all times. Yes it is that epic. It blends history, British culture, teacher/student relationships, the value and limitations of education, the pursuit of knowledge, wit, poetry (Auden!), and fantastic acting. ALL IN ONE MOVIE.

Secondly. Hahahahahaahaha :D You are hilarious, my dear, and this post absolutely brightened my day!

Well, I'm actually supposed to be working on a fest fic right now, but this jumped into my brain. Whoops *sheepish giggle*

Moreover, what has happened to our dear Danny/Flack fandom? It's quite sad, actually, when you compare how active the HP fandom is (and really, it's absolutely mindboggling. If you sat down for a year and read just H/D fic nonstop, you -still- wouldn't get through all of it. And that's just the good fic!!) to the D/F fandom. Grumbles. Maybe I'll start posting Danny/Flack again, although I haven't been bothered to keep up with the recent seasons. Bah. Although, I have been re-watching Seasons 5 and 6 of CSI: Vegas...so...who knows...NIck/Greg in the future? Maybe? Mmhmmmm ;)

*facepalm* oh capslock, i am sorry for abusing you so!

But I shall add it to my things I-should-know-about pile. I know the stage play version was also critically acclaimed, so me not knowing about it, is truly terrible.

You're writing a fest fic! *happy dance* Hurrah!

I know, I know. The state of the danny/flack fandom makes me so sad. I've always shied away from writing it, because I haven't seen the show in so long, and gave up watching after the whole Mootana debacle, but really, seasons 1-3 have such D/F potential. I think I will rewatch and try and write some. I have two H/D stories to finish up, but then a change might be nice! The other thing I like about H/D is that it's all so shiny - the fic archives etc are really easy to navigate, and that's just not the case in D/F at all.

Er, I've just had a potentially terrible idea.....

We could try and do something to get D/F on eljay a bit shinier and stories easier to find.... Have you seen thejupiterboy? It's a rec list that uses the lj tagging system to categorise fics. Wouldn't a D/F one of those be awesome?

*sits on hands*

It's a terrible idea, and I know you are mega busy, but what do you think? As a concept, what do you think? I would like to take it on, I think....
