I would sincerely appreciate it if things got a little less irritating, hmm? As always, keep any discussion polite, I don't mind being disagreed with, etc.

( on people being dumb about warnings, bureaucracy, and Swedish politics )

But in much happier news, I've created workable drafts for a section and a half of my analysis over the last few days (WOHOO), the last issue of Birds of Prey is awesome and fixes what was ostensibly wrong with the last one, and two wonderful people wrote me stories!

nokomis305 wrote Moments Inside The Sun, which is Doctor Who/DC Comics, and seriously, seriously. Martha Jones and Stephanie Brown, you guys. Both of them are pitch-perfect (Stephanie facing down a mugger like she is "bulletproof," oh, my heart) and the way they interact is a joy. I LOVE THIS SO. Also, it's a freaking GENIUS way of resolving current DC canon. GO READ.

fictionalaspect bribed me to finish the section I was working on yesterday by saying she'd write me 500 words of whatever I wanted if I did--which is a very attractive offer, yes? So, ah, what I GOT was 3700 words of Laena/Annie college AU, complete with pining and hilarious shenanigans (Tennessee is so so so wonderful) and nods to my competence kink (Laena playing the violin, hell yes) and just--fuck, so great. Heard It Through The Grapevine. Hearts! Epic ones!

Just--I'm not going to say much on the issue, because a number of people have said it more eloquently than me (and if you ask me, I'll link to those posts), but the warnings debate? Infuriates me. I've said different versions of this in comments, but I realized I wanted to state it over here too, just in case anyone was confused about where I stood. And for the record, this has nothing to do with the author of the fic that started the debate, nothing.

I just--it takes ten seconds to add a warning for consent issues. Ten seconds. You do that, and you've avoided potentially hurting people. That's all.
