less than a week and i will be free

~I've already recced this out on tumblr, but I want to rec it here. The Rules of Endogamy. It's a His Dark Materials fusion with The Social Network. So not a crossover, but putting daemons in the Social Network world. It's amazingly well done. I love these books and I really need to re-read them. But this fic is fantastic. It's so well put together ( Read more... )

tarheel born and a tarheel bred, tv: the west wing, writing, unc-ch, meme, film: the social network, the o.c. of nc, tumblr is like crack, spyglass_ is the best

don't ask me why you already know; The Social Network; Erica/Tyler

I want to know about this one! I don't think about Erica/Tyler as often as Erica/Cameron or Tyler/Erica/Cameron, so I'm curious.

I don't think about Erica/Tyler as often as Erica/Cameron or Tyler/Erica/Cameron, so I'm curious.That's exactly where the idea for this one came from. I think people, or at least me, don't really think about Tyler as much because he's not the twin we see the most from. We don't get a huge part of the Winklevosses' story, and when we do we see most of it from Cameron doing the talking or such. Tyler is sort of portrayed as the angrier twin, the one who was much quicker to be all over the suing and such from the beginning. So I really started thinking about how we only see him as that, but there's other small hints to his character and I wanted to write something that played around with fleshing him out more ( ... )

Haha. Okay, this started out as a crack idea and now it's not so much anymore. And then it got fleshed out by drunk blogging on tumblr ( ... )

I'm looking for a plot that isn't defined by the case. It sort of just happens after some time in the story. If that makes sense, lol.

But yay, good to know that there are others who are interested as well in this idea. :)

Wow, that fanfic kicks ass.

magisterequitum February 27 2011, 18:38:55 UTC

Doesn't it?

I loved it and got super excited. Any well done fusion of HDM owns my soul.

wrestlingdog February 27 2011, 19:01:53 UTC

Absolutely. Daemons are always my favorite part of HDM- I always wonder what mine would be.

magisterequitum February 27 2011, 19:42:02 UTC

ME TOO!

I think everybody wonders that. :)

phineas_gatsby February 27 2011, 19:18:06 UTC

You can do it!

My spring break is next week, too, but with any luck (come on, Hoyas) I'll be spending most of it in Hartford/New York for the men's and women's Big East tournaments...

PS, I have no idea how Duke got to be #1 last week. Obviously I'm prejudiced, but I think it should have been Pitt...

magisterequitum February 27 2011, 19:44:03 UTC

So close! We can do it.

Ooh! That will be fun. Yeah, I would go to the ACC Tournament but I don't have the money this year to go to it. Last year cost quite a bit and then we did the opening round of the NCAA Tournament because it was in Greensboro and that was ridiculously expensive also. That and my Aunt is getting married over spring break and I have LSAT testing, LOL. So I'll be lazy when I'm not required to actually do something. :)

PS, I agree completely. I have no idea how they got that number one ranking back. All I can say is I'm glad they are losing it. Everybody needs to stop drinking the Duke kool-aid, they're not as good as you think they are.

phineas_gatsby February 27 2011, 19:51:22 UTC

The joys of pep band...last year we not only traveled to both BETs completely free, we made $150 apiece off athletics for the men's only ($30/day food stipend, generally spent at the liquor store three or four blocks from MSG...)

Of course, unless Chris Wright's hand heals, I don't have all that much hope.

magisterequitum February 27 2011, 19:58:27 UTC

LOL. I like y'all's style. Very nice.

:( I hate when that happens. Seriously sucks.

VT ♥ Especially when they do good things like beat Duke!

Thanks for the fic rec, btw! I've got it bookmarked!

Let me ask you about press play, if you don't mind? :P

magisterequitum February 27 2011, 23:08:46 UTC

DUKE, FOREVER ALONE. NO ONE LIKES YOU ( ... )

spyglass_ February 28 2011, 02:55:33 UTC

I can't wait to read it! Seriously. And the HP one too.

I still haven't finished your birthday fic either. I AM A BAD FRIEND. It's not for lack of wanting to finish it, I promise!

I am very excited for this, btw. It sounds awesome.

YAY FOR WW/CM FIC BTW. And LJ has been eating my comments too. DNW.

magisterequitum February 28 2011, 03:02:05 UTC

Both are great! I hope you like them. They're written by the same author, LOL. But further proof they are a genius.

WE ARE PERFECT FOR EACH OTHER. NEVER GETTING THINGS DONE. It's all good. Mine is the same thing, I want to get it done and I swear it will.

:) Glad it sounds exciting. LOL. I would not like for you to hate it.

YES. YAY. And I know right? Like, LJ, we're trying to have important conversations, can you please chill out and work with us here.
