I thought I'd be non-traditional for Valentine's Day, so instead of recommending stories about the hearts-and-flowers happy lives of couples I'm recommending stories with threesomes. *grins*  These are some of my absolute favourites from the Harry Potter verse, although there are lots that I've really enjoyed. (And there are one of two stories that ( Read more... )

I hope everyone had a fantastic festive season - or at least some moments of fun for those who really weren't looking forward to it this year *hugs* - and I wish you all the very best for the New Year ( Read more... )

Please do forgive me, though, if I ever rec a fic ( Read more... )

My fit of procrastination for today involved taking a Sorting personality test.  I usually avoid those, but this one came recommended.

I scored: 81 Hufflepuff, 70 Gryffindor, 70 Ravenclaw and 54 Slytherin.
