Rec

Wow. Where did the morning go that it's almost 11? Sheesh.

I've been keeping my list of gen fics and R/S fics from reversathon going. It's been surprisingly easy, since there hasn't been that much in either category, relatively speaking.

Recs from this list are funny things, because frankly, the quality of everything I've read so far has been above average. There have been some pieces I didn't like, per se, but that doesn't mean they were bad. They just weren't my taste. However, I did really want to rec one piece, because it's been up for a few days and I'm a little horrified that so few people have commented. It's Special, a fairly short piece about Tom Riddle and the two kids he took down to the cave. Gen, and for once the author didn't leap to the "sexual molestation" explanation of why the two kids were never quite right again. And this version I can totally believe- it's one of those that makes you think "Gee, did JKR decide to join in this challenge?" I think the author needs as much counselling after writing this as the author of Let the Water Hold You Down does (Peter fic, also rather disturbing), but that's a compliment. Definitely don't miss this one.

I was just looking at this painting lizardspots did of Harry and Ron, with the description of Felix Felicis at the bottom, and dude, does anyone else think that SCREAMS pot???? (Although I can't stand the smell of pot myself, but I know people who love it.) (The description of Felix Felicis, I mean. Not the painting. Although Harry and Ron look a bit (highly appropriately) stoned.)
