( You know, I think this may be it for me. )

Take care, everyone.

Love,
Nuala.

Title: Not Quite…
Author: Nuala
Pairing: Wilson/Chase pre-slash
Rating: Softish R.
Disclaimer: Not mine. Not making any money.
Warnings: Canadian spellings. Timeline might be a little off. Pretty much AU after recent episodes. Spoilers for Season 1 and early Season 2.
Summary: Wilson wants to love and be loved. You can’t always get what you want, as the philosopher Jagger said, but sometimes you get what you need.
A/N: My entry for the [info]houserareathon challenge, using prompts to generate a gen, het or slash fic that avoided House/Cmaeron and House/Wilson.

Prompt #44:

some small and clammy being
not quite yet an angel
is on my back
playing the strings of this nervous system
not quite yet a harp

- Albert Goldbarth

( Not Quite… )

My beta reader abandoned me at the eleventh hour! *glares at [info]obscuranb* Wherefore art thou, Obscura? Naturally, any suckiness is entirely her fault. ;)

10:10 pm - Jooster!
I... can't believe I actually wrote this. But here it is. And I think I'm addicted. *wibbles*

Title: Jeeves and the Practical Demonstration
Author: Nuala
Pairing: Jeeves/Wooster… God help me.
Rating: hard-ish PG-13.
Summary: A missing chapter, assuming that Bertie opts for the milk train rather than confronting the formidable Aunt Agatha at the end of "The Mating Season."
Warnings: Ostensibly, none.
Disclaimer: I own nothing.
Thanks: Humble gratitude and chocolate cake to [info]blandine, [info]privatetentacle and [info]obscuranb for the aural beta. This is dedicated to [info]peak_in_darien, whether she wants it or not.
A/N: I blame [info]peak_in_darien. And Hugh Laurie, and Stephen Fry. In that order. ( Many notes… )

( Come on, you know you want to click. )

Jeeves cordially invites you to read and review.

current mood: indescribable

7:24 am - venting
Things that suck about this week:

- I was diagnosed with a medical condition that messes up my hormones and makes me functionally infertile, which was a psychological blow. I can't afford the drugs needed to treat it and my insurance doesn't cover them. The cheaper drugs I'm taking as a stopgap measure (to prevent the condition from turning precancerous) are making me bloated and very irritable.

- I didn't get to see Serenity with the SVG on Friday. I still haven't seen it. I don't know when I'll be able to see it. I've already been spoiled by a co-worker who has never watched the show. My rl friends and flist are squeeing about it endlessly.

- I've been working at the bookstore so much trying to make ends meet that I can't finish my dissertation chapter, I haven't finished the homework for the one class I'm taking, I never see my friends and have little down time.

- I stupidly forgot to pay what I owe for tuition on Friday, which means a big fat late fee will be slapped onto my bill. Plus I don't know if I actually have the money for it anyway, after I pay rent, which was due Saturday.

Things that are good:

- I'm seeing The Arcade Fire live tonight, which is awesome.

- None of my problems are really that serious. They just suck. Things could be so much worse, and many people on my flist are dealing with far more problems with far more grace. Y'all are an inspiration to me. {h} Thanks for reading, sweeties.

current mood: depressed

11:10 pm - meme!
When you see this on your flist, quote Firefly.

Mal: "We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so... very... pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die."

...and indeed they are. *nods*

7:47 am - Smallville fic: "Switch" [NC-17] Clark/Lionel
My poor, negelcted first lj fandom. It's okay, sweetie, I'm here now. *huggles* I've wanted to write this for a long time now. The challenge, for me, was how to make Lionel willingly bottom.

Title: Switch
Author: Nuala
Pairing: Clark/Lionel; other pairings mentioned
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: dubious consent
Summary: Red!Clark; bottom!Lionel. PWP-ish.
Disclaimer: The boys, and everything else from Smallville, are not mine. I'm not making money off them either, just playing around.
A/N: Thanks to the amazing [info]obscuranb for the beta. Any remaining errors are mine, not hers.

( Clark rode off on his dad's old motorbike. )

Luthors don't read and review; you should.

1:24 pm - in lieu of fic
*glares at [info]privatetentacle and [info]obscuranb* Where's my beta???

Meanwhile, gakk'd from [info]amazonqueenkate:

1. Reply with your name and I'll respond with something random about you.
2. I'll tell you what song/movie reminds me of you.
3. I'll pick a flavour of jello to wrestle with you in.
4. I'll say something that only makes sense to you and me.
5. I'll tell you my first memory of you.
6. I'll tell you what animal you remind me of.
7. I'll ask you something that I've always wondered about you.
8. If I do this for you, you must post this (the questions) on your journal. You MUST. It is written. (Well, it's written, but nothing's going to happen if you don't.)

current mood: happy

11:07 pm - new House fic! "Bird of Prey" Stacy/Cameron [NC-17]
Slash! Finally! I blame [info]blandine, [info]obscuranb, [info]privatetentacle and [info]laceymcbain for inspiring me to finish this and post it. I should be asleep, but NOOOO, I had to finish and post this instead! *snerk* Thnx, ladies.

x-posted to [info]house_slash and [info]housefic.

Title: Bird of Prey
Author: Nuala
Pairing: Stacy/Cameron (other pairings mentioned)
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: dubious consent, exhibitionism
Spoilers: 1st season, and spoiler-ish speculation for 2nd season
Summary: Cameron's working late, and hurting. So's Stacy.
Disclaimer: Anything you recognize is something I don't own. I am not making any money from this.
A/N: Every fandom needs more femmeslash, including this one -- the boys aren't the only ones who can have fucked-up relationships. Also, I don't necessarily think that Stacy is at all like this -- it's fiction, people -- but I think she has the potential to be similar to this.

( Stacy wandered through the still-unfamiliar halls of Princeton-Plainsboro. )

Please read & review. Con crit especially welcome.

ETA: After posting this, I came up with ( a much better ending! )

current mood: sleepy

8:24 pm - friendship
Friendship is sitting together in the middle of a university library reading NC-17 multi-pairing Harry Potter slash on a computer we've pulled three chairs around, trying not to laugh or blush too conspicuously. O_O I loff my friends!

Eep. There will be slash here soon. I hope.

current mood: touched

9:33 pm - blahg
Before I sign off today, so I don't forget:

Several authors, including Neil Gaiman and Lemony Snicket, are auctioning off character names and other things from forthcoming works. The proceeds will go to The First Amendment Project (I'm not American, btw, but I still think it's a good cause). Check 'em out at http://cgi3.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewUserPage&userid=auctioncause. Neil Gaiman commands you!

Also: Snape Is Innocent. I can think of worse things to put on a tee-shirt. :)

Last, I know this is preaching to the choir, but it makes me feel better: ( The homophobia meme. )

6:46 pm - home again, home again
I'm back! And I have fic! That country air was good for the muse. I have Smallville fic (Red!Clark/bottom!Lionel), House fic (femmeslash! w00t!), and... I can't believe I'm even admitting this... I have Jeeves/Wooster fic. This is your fault, [info]peak_in_darien! Curse you! Gah. Anyway, this'll all get posted after I put the finishing touches on and get a beta to look it over. Soon....

In the meantime, I'll be reading through the ol' flist. If anything big happened to anyone while I was away, please leave me a comment so I can be sure to check it out. I sure did miss y'all. {{{hugs}}}

current mood: home!

7:59 am - away, away, away
Gah. I've been a bad fandom girl lately. No inspiration whatsoever. But today I am off to the family farm, and after that to the beach cottage -- a two-week sojourn away from work and stress and such. I'm bringing my computer, so I hope to have a slew of lovely fics to post on my return. No Internet access, alas, but all the better to concentrate on production rather than consumption.

In the meantime, take care y'all. Don't do anything I wouldn't do. :)

current mood: tired

8:42 pm - everybody's doing it....
No fic yet. Eep. Soon, I hope. Wherefore art thou, Muse? Instead, I choose to post about the new Harry Potter book. So, um, spoiler alert for the, like, 2 people on lj who haven't yet read the book and still care about being spoiled.

( Harry Potter launch party! )

( Thoughts on HBP )

What do I have to leave under my pillow to ge the Fic Fairy to come and leave me a plot bunny?

9:28 pm - OKCupid! told me so
My test results from the latest OKCupid! quiz should surprise no one at all. Gakked from [info]obscuranb. [info]rose_etta, if you're around I want to know what you scored on this!

12:09 am - spam!!
Because I was sick of seeing my post about the London bombings on top of my lj, I bring you pimpage:

Go check out [info]riverlight's post on fandom clichés. This is a great kind of discussion to be participating in. When I get together with rl friends who write fanfic, we talk about this kind of stuff. It's very rewarding for writers and readers alike. Helps you figure out what the significance of all this is -- and it is significant, in unexpected ways.

So, go. Read. Comment.

Watch this space for: Clark/Lionel (featuring redK!Clark), Cameron/Cuddy, and Wilson/Vogler.

current mood: awake
current music: Bryan Ferry "These Foolish Things"

2:28 pm - another House fic!
I promise I'll try to write some Smallville fic next! My poor, negelected first lj fandom. It needs some Clark/Lionel lovin'. Anyhoodle, here's some House fic. Enjoy.

Title: Slash in the Hizzy
Author: Nuala
Rating: PG-13, again.
Pairing: House/Wilson. Sort of. Actually, it's practically sub-subtext
Disclaimer: Not mine. Not making any money.
Warnings: Canadian spelling. Unbeta'd. Likely very inaccurate medical jargon and practices. Endemic silliness.
Summary: Cameron's a slasher. Somehow, that makes me like her better.
A/N: Follow-up to "TV Doctors", and twice as long. Eesh. Might not make sense if you haven't read it first. Cheers to [info]arabwel and [info]little_aphid for the inspiration for this follow-up, and to HL and RSL for being so goddamn sexy.

( Slash is in the eye of the beholder. )

Feedback: Vicodin for the soul.

current mood: hyper

12:45 am - pimpage!
Everyone, go read the quick little RPS drabble that [info]brodeurbunny30 wrote for me! It can be found on her lj or here on the [info]house_slash community. I normally shy away from RPS, but this is short, hot, and has RSL/HL!!! How could anyone resist?

current mood: grateful
