ladymirth: (lesbian sex)
Dear SPN fandom,

It is exceedingly cute to watch you squee your pants off this way. I'm glad you're having fun. I really am. But now I'm getting worried. You do know that just because two men who have to live in the same city, go to the same place of work and are really good friends decide that it's more fun to share a bachelor pad and better for the environment if they carpool, it DOESN'T NECESSARILY INDICATE THAT THEY'RE GAY, right? Right?

Hell, I'd think it was beyond cute if they were in Twu Gay Wuv, but this level of gay objectification about what I think is one of the most wonderful friendships in Hollywood kind of disturbs me. Although, after watching the season 3 gag reel, I will admit that they bring it all on themselves.

Oh, nevermind. Sorry to rain on your parade. Carry on. Your sparkly tinhats are very sweet.

If you guys go this crazy over their co-habitation, I can't imagine what would happen if they DID suddenly come out and confirm that they're a couple. Fandom would probably not survive the implosion. It would be nuclear.

Now I wish that would really happen. That would be beyond priceless.

What would be even more priceless is if Jared and Jensen made the announcement, waited about a week for all the fangirls to give themselves concussions bouncing off the walls and then announce "just kidding!".

I love you, you utterly batshit people,
Me.

Once in a while, you find a fic that's warm and beautiful and unpretentiously, smoothly written. It's doesn't leave you in awe, but it does warm the cockles of your heart and leave a tear in your eye.

Title: Of Pride and Prejudices
Author: [livejournal.com profile] araminta_lupin 
Pairing: Teddy Lupin/ Victoire Weasley
Rating: PG 
Summary: Victoire Weasley is seventeen years old, fresh from her summer vacation is Paris and feeling very grown-up  now that she's going out with  the best-looking boy in her year. She wasn't expecting a reality check delivered by her best friend Teddy when he takes exception to her essay on  the dangers of werewolves. COMPLETE. 

I am in love with the characterizations of every single person who appears in this story - OCs and all. Victoire is your typical teenage girl trying to live up to her image as the eldest child of the family, and yet struggling to overcome the usual pitfalls of growing up along the way. She's obsessed with her hair and clothes, and has all the usual insecurities of a young girl who wants to be popular, but shows her deeper nature whenever it comes to her friends and family. Teddy Lupin is a wonderful mix of the best and the worst of his parents, and it's so easy to fall in love with him as Victoire does. The chapters fly by rapidly and leaves you with the sense of having enjoyed a work that has been meticulously and lovingly crafted in every aspect. 

This story is the only chaptered fic I can find by the author, although I enjoy anything she writes. Red Hair is a prequel one-shot to Pride and Prejudices that I would strongly recommend.
