Not Quite Donne

Why is it I only use this journal for fic? FAILZ

GAH! I will post this fic if it kills me (WTF procrastination?). HERE I AM POSTING THIS. Very proud of this fic, though it wouldn't seem so given the time lag (LOL busy with worldcup!). It's been in the works for a year now, though I didn't write the bulk of it until SOME CRAZY PERSON (*violet_quillcough*)talked me into writing for Valensmut. I protested, but in vain! :D Not gonna lie I WOULD LIKE IT IF PEOPLE READ THIS :P :P :P

Title: Sexetera, Ad infinitum
Author: NQDonne
Pairing(s): Percy/Harry, with minor implied pairings, including Percy/Kingsley, Percy/Draco, Percy/Oliver, Percy/Remus, Percy/Snape, Percy/Charlie, Percy/others
Summary: There's loving routine, and there's being stuck repeating the same one over and over for eternity.
Warning(s): AU. People are alive and well who didn't quite make it out of book seven. Because Percy needs to sleep with them, obviously. Kinks include (both graphic and implied) blow jobs, gangbang, dirty talk, wanking, incest, threesomes. Borderline crack; hopefully doesn't bastardise canon too badly!
Word Count: 11,600
Disclaimer: JKR owns HP, the writers of the film Groundhog Day own that concept.
Notes: Written for hpvalensmut 2008. Dedicated to my dedicated beta readers – for furiosity, who helped me figure out at the eleventh hour why the pacing was off, and how to fix it; for lesyeuxverts00, who was my sounding board when I wasn't sure how things were working; for kriken for putting up with my excessive Percy squee for months; for blamebrampton who caught my its/it's errors and didn't judge me for them; and finally for violet_quill, who gave me the opportunity to finish this, and for holding my hand throughout.


( At first, Percy barely noticed the same day was repeating itself, over and over )

PART TWO

( Part Two )

The REVEAL for hpfamilyfuncest has finally gone up so I can FINALLY admit which fic I wrote. Guys, I was BLOWN AWAY by the response. A lot of people I really respect commented and liked it and, most importantly of all, lizardspots loved it. Of course she also TOTALLY KNEW I WROTE IT, so lol. Because honestly? I think only I could have written this. My ability to write psychological disorders, specifically those of serial killers, is somewhat disturbing. I should have been a psychology major :P

And, sigh, this is my first IJ only fic post! I will link from LJ, but this baby can only exist on IJ's servers - underage Harry ahoy! *buries head in sand*

Title: By Rote
Author: NQDonne
Rating: NC-17+some
Pairing: James/Harry
Summary: Just because your child kills one animal, it doesn't mean they're abnormal.
Warnings: Other than incest? Patchy psychological analysis, overuse of italics, intellislash tactics and the word 'wrong.' And it's AU obviously, as James/Harry tends to be (no D/H spoilers or references).
Word Count: approx. 9,000
Author's Notes: Written for lizardspots for the 2007 hpfamilyfuncest. She essentially asked for a "Dexter" pastiche, which was exceedingly fun to write, though a major pain keeping a secret from her for nearly five months. "Dexter" is a Showtime series, based on a series of novels, about a sociopath who only kills other killers. Part of its premise is that Dexter's adopted father, Harry (ha!), was a cop who taught Dexter from the time he was a young boy to channel his murderous urges and only target those who "deserved it." More info here. Thanks to my veritable army of betas, like Dumbledore's Army, only without an applicable Umbridge figure in the metaphor :P


( Early signs of anti-social personality disorder, more commonly known as the precursor personality type of the psychopath (though the two are not mutually exclusive), are cruelty to animals and pyromania. James knew this from Auror training, where they did a module on the Muggle social sciences as a tool for understanding the dark roots of a Death Eater. )

hd_fandomchoice has launched! It's a project by gossymer and sulky_rhino whereby they will put together a new masterlist of H/D "Fandom Favorites" that are pre-DH (or written/posted pre-DH).

Go nominate people! It'll be interesting to see which stories end up on the new list. I plan on popping over to hd_holidays and going through my rec memories to put together my own nom list, you should, too!

Yay!

Reveals are up for the percy_ficathon! Bwahahahahaha, I guessed three fics correctly. I pwn. So I think it was insanely obvious which one I wrote, but it obviously wasn't because ZOMG, someone thought florahart, violet_quill or emiime might have written it which flatters me TO NO END. *squees* So I wrote this for me but it ended up fitting an abandoned person in the fest, hence why it went up there. The fic I was actually writing for the fest (my recipient dropped out) is still in progress - it's a long one!

Title: Adonis Departed
Author: NQDonne
Pairing: Percy/Charlie, Percy/OC & Charlie/OC mentioned
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Percy discovers Charlie is gay when he walks in on him, balls-deep inside a fair-haired boy from the village, thrusting as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
Word Count: 5,300
Disclaimer: I don't own, and everyone (fictional!) involved is over the age of 18.
Warnings: incest, dirty talk
Author's Notes: Covers CoS – pre-OotP canon, the bulk of it takes place between GoF and OotP. Thank you to my beta and hand holder emiime and to snegurochka_lee for making my YEAR by praising my Charlie and reccing this. I died of squee. Also, fun fact: the porn that is referenced in here is a REAL porn, that was released in 1995. Yes, I'm so anal I cross-referenced my porn to make sure it was canon.


( Percy is sixteen and Charlie is home from Romania for the weekend, paying their mother the dutiful visits she thrives on (and nags about if they don't happen frequently enough), though Percy now rather thinks his visit may have more to do with the boy who writhed so happily under his cock. )

Here's my last pre-reveal edition of Percy Ficathon recs. I still have a few fics to read, but I wanted to put together a master list of my recs from the fest, for the sake of organisation, and put up the ones I read today. This fest deserves more love (and more recs! Am I seriously the only one doing it?), so please read and comment! Above the cut recs are new, under the cut older ones are organised. Later I'll put them all under categories and tag this post for each searching.

Locker Room Longings by Anon at the percy_ficathon. Charlie/Oliver, Percy, Rated NC-17. Kinks: VOYEURISM, WANKING, BLOW-JOBS, UNDERAGE

Summary: When Percy goes to congratulate Oliver on a Quidditch victory, he finds his dorm mate in a compromising situation.

Dude. I got TWO gift fics. Like, zomg. And this, so much like my first, fits my prompt request so perfectly! I mean, Charlie/Oliver = HOT, and Percy watching? Self-explanatory, really!

Five Bad Days by Anon at the percy_ficathon. Percy/Cedric, Rated PG-13.

Summary: Some bad days are worse than others.

Wow. I have completely spoiled by all the wonderful Percy/Cedric fic in this fest, a pairing I'm not sure was even written before (I've never seen it). And this is just lovely. Nothing beating "missing moments" for me, and this features five both sweet and bittersweet vignettes that are just that. The style is simple yet full of detail and it is just so worth a read.

Bravery by Anon at the percy_ficathon. Percy Gen, Rated G.

Summary: True bravery is shown by performing without witness what one might be capable of doing before all the world ~ François de la Rochefoucauld

Yes, that's right. I'm reccing gen. Wow. That's new. But this is just an unbelievably apt character portrait, specifically of Percy and his actions in the war. It features filling in some of the blanks from Deathly Hallows, which is more or less why it totally owns me. I've been itching to read something like this, and I love the take this person has on Percy and why he is brave. A+++

Carrying On by Anon at the percy_ficathon. Percy/Snape, Percy Gen, Rated R.

Summary: When Percy looks back on this year, all he will say is "I did what I had to do."

Oh, yay! I wanted a fic that filled in what Percy did in his year at the Ministry and here's another one! And this one is so edgy! I'm honestly not completely sold on Percy/Snape, but this fic just wins for the description of the battles scenes at the end. The author's rendition of when Fred dies is just heartbreaking. Oh, Percy Ficathon, how you win at life.

So I hate the style on IJ. HATE it. Grey background+orange highlights and ads = FUGLY. And it has contributed to my not being on here as much.

I'm going to make an effort though. Using the glory of pounds to dollars exchange rate, I have bought myself six months of paid time, to give a try at customising this thing they way I want and to see if I can make things more readable (esp. fic - I need to be able to do style=mine and be happy).

Question: anyone have links/info on how I can code either Smooth Sailing or Mixit on IJ using custom overrides? I know there's a way to do it, but as I was unable to do this on a free account, I didn't save the links. Now I am desperate to move my current LJ layout onto here so I can start style=mine-ing and reading fic the way I want to.

Help? Really any nifty IJ paid user stuff would be good.

See? I'm trying. And since I'll have to start posting fic here, I really do need to try.

Clearly I FAIL at cross-posting. But people aren't really leaving LJ, and it's likely I will just end up putting fic on here, sigh. I don't know man. IJ needs to get prettier.

Okay, this was one of the most bizarrely organic things I've ever written. Just kind of wrote itself. I like it entirely too much. Rather dark, but plz to be giving it a chance. And comment so I don't go hide in a dark hole of "omgican'tbelieveiwrotethis" and never come out.

Title: Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang
Author: NQDonne
Pairing(s): Percy/Harry, Percy/Zacharias, Percy/others implied
Rating: hard R, mostly for language and sexual innuendo
Summary: Percy keeps a list of targets folded and tucked safely within his inside robe pocket. He enjoys a thrill of satisfaction each time he takes it out, unfolds it and crosses out another name, noting beside it in parentheses the cause of death.
Warnings: assassin!Percy, dub-con, major and minor character death, AU (uses some DH canon but disregards things so far as who lives/dies at the end is concerned)
Word Count: circa 2,450
Author's Notes: While this was born of my assassin!Percy in Life on Mars, this does not take place in the LoM verse. This is a darker, more bad-ass!Percy and the story uses a different canon timeline as that piece. Thanks to violet_quill for developing this idea with me over dinner last December. Ultimately I was the one who ended up writing it, though she might use it at some point in the future, lol. Live on bad-ass!Percy, live on… I was too impatient to wait for my normal Calvary of betas, so thank you to my London ladies lizardspots and raelinschaos for looking over it for me.

( The only person who knows about Percy's... extracurricular activities is Severus Snape, once a spy for Dumbledore and now an excellent handler, though for whom he's handling Percy is unclear. )

So you want to read my fic? Wow, you're brave. :P Here it all is, organized by pairing so you can pick your poison. Be warned that not all my fics are created equal, especially since some involved slightly emo dabbling in new pairings/genres. I have stars next to my personal favorites, in case you're curious. Most recent stories at the top (and they tend to be the better ones :D)

The original postings of all pre-September fic is hosted on LJ - you are free to pop on over there to read and comment. All stories with questionable content will now be hosted here, and only posted on IJ.

( Harry/Draco )

Those of you who just added me for the uploads - can you drop me a comment so I can add you to the appropriate filter?

there's a porn filter, too - 18+ only, please

I am tempted to make a fic journal. Good idea, y/n?

They're all on here anyway, but I'm thinking it might be a good way to keep them all organised and, should I need to f-lock in future, not have to friend everyone back on here just so they can read. But I worry that putting one together will mostly be for my own benefit, lol.

I'm also debating setting up my icon journal on IJ, too, or just having the icon tag on here.

My cat just vomited all over the bathroom floor. I didn't even think she could fit that much content into her stomach (she's a wee Siamese).

I've watched almost the entire first season of Jericho in a day. WTF.

I also found a job to apply for that I quite like and had a massive (MASSIVE) argument with my mother.

Good day?

Well, I can't complain (much).

Only two days live and we already have 74 people signed up for hd_holidays. I'm thrilled to see my old favourites and a lot of new faces, too! Consider this mere mention of it my pimping it out for the day :D

Had annoying row with my mother tonight - it reminds me why I cannot live with her as an adult. I love my mom, I do, and we have a pretty amazing relationship. But she has had issues grasping the fact that I'm an adult now for years and what it means is that we get into these arguments over absolutely nothing and sometimes, believe it or not, I am actually right, and I hold the logic in the argument. Except I don't. I will never be able to win an argument with my mother. Like ever. Because she always pulls out the classic "I'm the adult and you're [my] child!" line. And she can never believe I could possibly be right about anything (or know more than her about something - a lot of our rows start this way, because God love her but the woman likes to talk over me and about me, even if she doesn't know what the hell she's on about). It makes me want to headdesk all over the place. Because my mother and I are essentially the same person. So it's like trying to argue with a much older, more stubborn version of myself. Not pretty :P

After the huge row, went to salsa aerobics with said mother. Yes, salsa aerobics. Now I can't dance, so this was fairly amusing. Well, it's not that I can't dance - I can't follow along with dance instruction. I fail at aerobics in general, because unless you show me an exact step and give me A LOT of time to process it, I'm crap. This is the reason I have never and could never successfully audition for a musical. You know those dance auditions where they show you a routine in a minute and you're supposed to do it back for them with twenty other people? Yeah, I suck at that, big time. Brain/feet coordination = Does Not Compute. But anyway. I was still better than some people (a miracle!) and I did get some exercise. So yay. Man, I miss yoga.

Watched Cashback. It rings a bit emo in places, but Sean Biggerstaff is so freaking pretty, I don't care. Like, seriously, I just want to hug him. And ruffle his hair. So, yes, I definitely recommend the film.

I also got some writing done today! While I haven't written, you know, THE MIDDLE of my percy_ficathon fic, I did write the end today, lol. So I know where it's going... now I have a LOT of sex to write. *sigh* (it's my fault - I keep writing plotty mo-fos). I also worked on another random fic I've got in my arsenal that I don't want to talk about as I've offered it up for pinch hit potential to someone here and there. Still haven't finished my hd_remix fic, sigh. My H/D muse has died, I think.

Man, I can't wait for all the late summer fests (in which I've participated!) to start posting... I don't know about you, but after all the LJ drama, etc. I really want to read some good porn. :P

hd_holidays round three sign-ups are live here!

This should be fun.

x-posted from LJ

Hello IJ friend's list!

As you can tell from the spam, I am making an effort over here. I've even got a few tags up and running. But now for the important thing: PORN.

So, yes, I have a porn filter. Occasionally there is porn, usually of the gay variety and almost always hilarious. I get bored and I like to share!

Want to be on the porn filter? Plz to be commenting here. If you are already on it (transferred over from the same filter on LJ), you should see a porn post directly under this one. If you can't see it, you're not on it yet.

I'll screen comments so everyone feels a bit more comfortable. And if I haven't friended you back yet, I'll friend you back so I can put you on the filter. I will check ages in profiles though, as I wouldn't feel comfortable adding anyone under the age of consent in their respective country.

A teaser: the links I just posted may or may not feature Snupin lookalikes. :P

*looks around*

Well, there's a surprising amount of people on here. If you find I've just friended you it's just me trying to track down the f-list. I have still missed many people and I'm lazy and keep hoping they'll go ahead and friend me, lol.

So my layout finally doesn't look like crap - I found a custom designed layout that would actually *WORK* on one of the free layouts. But you know how I LOVE TAGGING? It pains my heart to have to go and retag all 1,800 of my entries. I've only done one page and I want to shoot myself. It probably won't get done. Sigh.

One thing that prevents me from picking up shop and just moving here (outside of how FREAKING ANNOYING it's going to be to retag everything!) is how absolutely FUGLY Insane Journal's style is. Seriously. I HATE this grey/orange thing. Hate, hate, hate it. And yet it's the best one they've got. Blech. Let's hope the wonderfully open owner will get some new layout options because YES I am that shallow and it DOES matter what the site interface looks like. Also? The fact that you have to RETYPE your tag everytime you want to use it? Bad script, right there.

And I think we're all agreed at how vaguely insulting the whole asylum/diagnosis thing is? I know it's the gimmick, but dear God I don't know if I can deal with that.

*is petulant and knows it*

Okay, okay, I gave in.

I am now on IJ: http://nqdonne.insanejournal.com/

I reckon it's better to set up shop on multiple sites until it becomes obvious where everyone is migrating to. Though I am still waiting for Scribblit, lol. But, yes, mirror sites, sigh.

*pouts*

So what did I do yesterday? Well, I got up at 11, watched a few movies, then, in the middle of watching a movie, fell asleep at 7 p.m., slept til midnight, finished movie, then slept until 11 a.m. this morning.

On the one hand, I think I'm finally over my jetlag - there is no longer cotton candy in my brain, yay! On the other hand, yay! I've come down with a virus! *throws back two DayQuil* Argh. This happened going the other way, too - something about trans-Atlantic travel just throws my system out of whack and I get sick.

I've never been hit so hard by jetleg, though mostly I think I let it effect me - I slept so much because I knew I had nothing to do, and let myself sleep. I am wicked behind on finishing my Percy Ficathon and hd_remix fics, though they're not at a point where I'm worried about finishing or anything. I just have to do it, blargh.

I did post the hd_hols round three rules and sign-up template for those who are interested. As much as I hate doing this in the current LJ climate, where everyone is frazzled, one of the newsletters is down and I'm not sure people are in the mood for writing, if I don't do it now, it will throw off the entire schedule. So look for sign-ups when they start next Tuesday. They'll be up for ten days, which will hopefully give things a chance to calm down. And, as I mention in the new rules, if the participant cap isn't reached, I may accept people after the sign-ups close, on a case by case basis. Honestly, my only real exception would be for those who were banking on Smutmas but didn't get in - but I reckon there won't be many cases of that, and hopefully those people would sign-up for hd_hols anyway. (on that note, I was thinking of signing up, but I have such little hope of getting in, it doesn't seem worth it).

Also on that note, look for a massive Percy fest/challenge on frecksandspecs this fall. It should be Made of Awesome.

I am rambling slightly, possibly because it is a) over a hundred degrees and I think the freeon in our air conditioner needs renewing b/c the air conditioner doesn't cool for shit b) I think I have a slight tempurature c) b is really compounded by a.

*wills self to sit down and finish two almost overdue fest fics*

Well, I slept until 3:30 p.m., am still jet-lagged (it's like there's cotton candy in my brain!) and really can't deal with LJ shit right now. But, generally, I'm going to lock my fic that involves "under age" characters until such time that LJ actually declares NO MORE PORN, EVAR at which point it all goes into lock-down.

My gut reaction is still to keep hd_hols public, but if Scribblet ends up as awesome as I think it will, we'll migrate the comm/actual posting over there come December.

And, yes, can't wait for Scribblet. I think that's where I'll be moving because, at the least, I need somewhere else to post all the Fic of Wrong I've been writing of late.

HBO/Shotime/Starz OnDemand: you fail, for not having ANY of the movies I've missed in the last eight months. WTF?

It's good to have cats again. :D

Saw Gavin and Stacey on the plane back, it's so good! I had seen adverts on BBC when I was over, but never managed to watch it. Definitely must watch the whole series. Cause, dude: HALF THE CAST IS WELSH/PRETENDING TO BE WELSH. AND ROB BRYDON, OMG. YES.

Okay. I got fed up and actually commented to one of lj_biz's posts.

Trust me, when the first thing I found when I got home (home home, like US home) and plugged in my laptop is everyone scurrying and locking down comms and shit I was not happy. I don't want to lock hd_holidays. I can kind of understand hp_springsmut, but at the same time, LJ has just made it clear that it doesn't matter if something is locked, you can still be suspended for the content.

Basically, I really think we need to leave, and I want to cry.

But I am also waiting, and may be waiting forever, for LJ to actually clarify things and state outright that we are basically no longer welcome on LJ. Cause the basic vibe I'm getting is "we don't want your porn on LJ. Period." Well, FUCK YOU LJ.

I still don't want to leave, but I will def. stop paying. Oh, extra user icons, we barely knew ye.
