I've been so bogged down with work and illness and other unpleasant things, that livejournal has really slipped away from me. I miss it, and I miss you people, so I'm going to take the thirty seconds I seem to have available for my lunch break today and take some advice from Jaci.

I don't care if someone has already done it, or if it turned wanky. I'm going to do it anyway. So.

Post the username of someone you think should get love, and invite others to join in!
Be lovely! Be anonymous! Spread the word!
(like, seriously, because these things are no fun if nobody shows up.)


Note: Yes, I will be deleting any unfriendly comments. Just so you know.

It has come to my attention that most of you think that I'm a Hufflepuff. And truth be told, I have a feeling that a lot of you Ravenclaw voters were just trying to be nice.

Clearly I should not have asked.

This would be less upsetting if I weren't fairly certain that it's true. I've tried to not be a Hufflepuff, I really have. I have some qualities to work with, but none of them are exactly right. I'm intelligent, but not brilliant. I'm brave, but rarely reckless. I'm ambitious (er. sometimes.), but not especially resourceful. So. Dudes. Hufflepuff.

Even my OTP sorted me as Hufflepuff. My OTP, friends, MY OTP. This turncoat ([info]marginalia, like hi) tried to convince me that my reaction to the news is influenced by authorial bias. She claims that Hufflepuff is not so bad. I think she's making excuses, but she has accidentally offered to write me a fic where Hufflepuffs save the world "because no one was paying attention to them anyway". Please go here immediately and tell her she must write it as penance. Please? Also, [info]iolanthe_rosa is a great big meany. Um.

"Hufflepuff took all the rest and treated them just the same." All the rest. ALL THE REST. *cries*

ETA: I have, by the way, discovered that I have this wrong. She said "I'll teach the lot and treat them just the same." Which is, admittedly, much better don't you think?

dorrie's story

"Gideon, at the candle-walking on Christmas Eve I used my wish against your call, though I've never told you." She raised her eyes. "The candle blew out."

"You should never have wasted your wish, Dorrie. You should have asked something for yourself."

"I was asking for myself, Gideon," said Dorrie.

All the violets he had picked spilled through his fingers, and their bits of sky and their heart-leaves fell and lay at Dorrie's feet.

-Greenwillow, B.J. Chute

fleurs

Fleurs promises, fleurs tenues dans tes bras, Fleurs sorties des parenthèses d'un pas, Qui t'apportait ces fleurs l'hiver Saupourdées du sable des mers? Sable de tes baisers, fleurs des amours fanées Les beaux yeux sont de cendre et dans la cheminée Un coeur enrubanné de plaintes Brûle avec ses images saintes.

- Louise de Vilmorin
