Is it nap time yet?

I had this theory I would take May off work. At this rate, I am grasping mid-June to mid-July as my first available sanity break. CURSES![Poll #1562495]In other news, Vaysh and Maggie have a fabbo list coming together on the most-recced fic written since the end of canon. Check it out here! I have bookmarked it as a good reading list for mid-June, but if you have a better memory than I, get in and add your own suggestions!

And here is one of the most charming art pieces I've seen in ages: Hugo and Arthur out in the garden by [livejournal.com profile] leochi .

It was a toss-up between 'Little Red Courgette' and 'Of Great Price' but in the end 'Of Great Price' won out. *g*

"Little Red Courgette"! I so love your description of the Minister : all the pointless laws, the in-offics politics, ...

my husband has read a couple of mine and he definitely enjoys the plot and action more than the romance aspects (he would even if it were het). I wouldn't do LRC because it, to me anyway, is far too fanon - It's the kind of fic you love (which I did) if you've read a lot of fanon H/D. So I'd say Price becaue the R/S is really canon based and you've got the war plot/issues going on in it. I think it's more of a man's fic. /2cents

:D Thank you so much for the lovely rec!

Of Great Price because it is so darn plausible in the context of the published books.

I am thrilled to hear that "some writing" is happening. :) And thank you, Brammers, for promoting Maggie and my New H/D Favourites-thingie. ♥

Okay, I chose "Snatched" because it's got bad guys and behind-the-scenes media and cops and Finnish pastry and seemed like something Mr. B might like as an introduction into things fannish and slashy.

I had a tough time choosing though. "Beneath Boundless Skies" makes me cry, but I love it, and "Little Red Courgette" is madness of the best kind. I might actually have to read that one again very soon.

I was torn between "Little Red Courgette" and "For the Public Good", but in the end I chose the one that was already on the list. I wish I could read your fics for the first time, too! But alas, too late. :)

I am sad to see that I am the only one who picked "other", but I have to say that nothing compares to "For The Public Good". That is one that I would read over and over again.

But maybe I'm a little biased because that is the first fic of yours that I ever read.

Having voted for LRC, which is killingly funny, I read the comments then looked at my hard drive. How would And Save Me From Bloody Men go down? That has zing in all sorts of ways.

I was torn between LRC and Snatched. LRC won out, based purely on the whim of the moment!

Argh, it's a tie between Beneath Boundless Skies and Of Great Price! And I can only choose ooooooooooooooooone!

I need to re-read all the stories tonight/tomorrow so I can vote properly! (yay, a fun project!)

I'm thinking 'Beneath Boundless Skies' right now, because that's the one I remember best.
