Dick/Jason stealth cuddling by musesfool. Go read it. It is adorable and totally improved my morning.

Very cute Teen Titans:Year One icons by clymnestra

Superheroes and Villains drawn as the Mr Men. I think my favourite is Little Miss Wonder.

Who’s to blame? How Jason Todd is blamed for his own demise. An interesting post on victim blaming in the portrayal of ( Read more... )

I love fic in which Mornington Crescent is played...

Actually I love Mornington Crescent generally. I have spent many happy hours involking the Kingsway Variations or working my way out of spoon when I have no green counters left. Did you know that a pub near the station has been named the Lyttleton Arms after Humph?

Your icon!!!!

There was a vey cool Dark is Rising fic where someone played Mornington Crescent, I think it was by gramarye1971 but I can't find a link at the moment. [eta] innerbrat just gave me the link - Merriman and Aziraphael play here.[/eta] I don't think I've ever played. I'd imagine that I'd just get horribly confused and accidentally win far too early because I panicked.

I didn't know about the pub. That is a wonderful tribute.

Seriously. Read No Man's Land. Drop everything and read everyone in Gotham City at their awesomest.

OK! Will do. I've actually read the second volume from the library and I was intending to buy the rest but I haven't seen it on sale anywhere. I will "acquire" it ASAP.

I've just read all of Manhunter and Kate Spencer and her supporting cast are fascinating.

(Also I have a feeling you once mentioned a Mornington Crescent by gramarye1971 but I can't find it. Am I imagining that?)

You are not!

I should read Manhunter. I loved her backup feature in Streets, though. And her appearances in BoP, of course

Thanks! Now delicioused so I don't lose it again.

I'd definitely recommend it. I enjoyed the incredibly different sensibility to the Bat Books, there are far more shades of grey to explore. It is written by the guy who wrote Streets of Gotham (I assume he was the creator) so you know exactly what you are getting into. Also it is apparently the place all the male gay characters from the DCU were hiding (I'd wondered).

Thanks for the rec! And omg, superheroes as Mr. Men! Adorable! Mr. Furious and Mr. Thingy made me laugh and laugh.

I loved it. Jason's skin care regime! Dick's terrible taste in music! Alfred! Cuddling to stop someone killing! Dick's long-lost teddy! Jason's eighth favourite handgun! (What happened to one through seven?) "It's a wrestling move"! Bruce's shoulder squeeze!

Hee! I completely missed Mr Furious, the first time.

*tacklehugs you*

So glad you liked it! That fic was tough to write but also just really entertaining. I've been wanting to write something in the Vegas!verse for SO LONG. :D

Er, I may have watched the Hawaii Five 0 pilot last night. For science.

Yep, something like that. It was research! (and I enjoyed it very much)
