Passing
PG
Fullmetal Alchemist
Ed/Al, Al/OFC
At the dinner table I’m too concerned at first with eating, with drinking, with savoring these sensations I’ve lacked for five years, that I don’t immediately notice you watching me.
WARNINGS: Incest, angst
Notes: Companion piece to Gone from Al's PoV. I recommend you read that first, but it really isn't required to understand this one. Also, this is something like two and a half times as long. My Al muse was talkative. Enjoy.
( Feeling is more glorious than I ever expected )

Rating: G
Warnings: slight spoilers for Conqueror of Shambala

Van Gogh is the finest painter of them all; certainly the most popular great painter of all time. The most beloved. His command of color: most magnificent. He transformed the pain of his tormented life into ecstatic beauty. Pain is easy to portray, but to use your passion and pain to portray the ecstasy and joy and magnificence of our world...no one had ever done it before. Perhaps no one ever will again. To my mind, that strange, wild man who roamed the fields of Provence was not only the world's greatest artist, but also one of the greatest men who ever lived.
- Museum Docent, Vincent and the Doctor
This monologue had me in tears. Because, damn it, he's right. A lot of artists who came before and since used their pain, but few like Van Gogh. It's good he is recognized for the wonderful, magnificent artist he was.

Top 5 Canon Pairings
Top 5 "Not My Favorite, But They're Very Nice Alternate Choices" Ships
Top 5 Cross-Generation Ships
Top 5 "I Just Don't Feel What Everyone Else Is Feeling" Ships
Top 5 "I Hope These Die" Ships
Top 5 Crossover Ships
Top 10 Ships
1. Jack/Daniel (Stargate SG-1) - What can I say? I still consider them my first true OTP. I luffs them. <3
2. The Doctor/Rose (Doctor Who) - A fairly new ship for me, but I can't help loving them. Most of what I read is Ten/Rose or TenII/Rose, but I've read and enjoyed Nine/Rose, Eleven/Rose, and Eight/Rose. Plus, Brit-ship, yay!
3. McKay/Sheppard (Stargate Atlantis) - Old. Married. Couple.
4. Spike/Buffy (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) - Season six is so bloody bittersweet, and the frankly the ship as shown on the show is the epitome of angst, but I think most of my favorite fanfics are Spuffy.
5. Kirk/Spock (Star Trek: The Original Series, Star Trek XI) - The Granddaddies of Slash and the couple who restarted Star Trek respectively, how can I leave them off the list?
6. House/Wilson (House) - Oh, man, it's been forever and a day since I read any House fic, but when I do, it's House/Wilson. I won't touch anything else with a ten-foot pole.
7. Ed/Al (Fullmetal Alchemist) - Here is where we get into my kink pairings. Yep, I do love me some Elricest.
8. Snape/adult Harry (Harry Potter) - Note the "adult" part of that pairing. Underage anything squicks me. And honestly, I couldn't tell you why I love this pairing so much, just that I do.
9. Paris/Anyone (Star Trek Voyager) - I couldn't decide which Paris pairing I liked most, but I read anything: Paris/Kim, Paris/Torres, Paris/Janeway...the only Paris pairing I don't read is Paris/Chakotay, but for some reason I just DON'T LIKE IT.
10. Spike/Angel or Spike/Xander (BtVS) - I couldn't decide between the two, since I read them about equally. But really, when I'm not Spuffy, it's pretty much Spike/Anyone.
Top 5 Love Triangles/Threesomes
1. Ten/Rose/TenII (Doctor Who) - Clone love! Plus, two David Tennants? *swoon*
2. Nine/Rose/Jack (DW) - One of the best TARDIS teams was this one. The threesome goodness practically writes itself.
3. Nine/Rose/Ten (DW) - Yeah, it's like, perfect. Both my Doctors in one pairing; both Rose's Doctors loving her together, I'm sure she's not turning THAT down.
4. Kim/Paris/Torres (Star Trek Voyager) - I have no OTP for this fandom; I basically pair Tom Paris with anyone and everyone. Yeah, feel the Tom Paris love.
5. Janeway/Paris/Chakotay (VOY) - Yeah, see above.
Top 5 Canon Pairings
1. The Doctor/Rose (Doctor Who) - Hey, I call it as I see it, and I see them canonically in love and having lots of sex.
2. Spike/Buffy (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) - No big surprise there, right? Have you read my journal at all?
3. Jack Harkness/John Hart (Torchwood) - Okay, A) James Marsters, B) er, James Marsters. I really love the crazy angst of this pairing. And, really, the just plain craziness that is John Hart.
4. Jack/Ianto (Torchwood) - Admittedly, I don't read much Torchwood and when I do it's Jack/John, but when I saw "Children of Earth" I cried. Ianto grew on me.
4. Willow/Oz (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) - Whenever I watch an episode with Oz in it, I go, "Holy shit, I forgot how completely and totally awesome Oz is!" And they were just so CUTE together.
5. Tom/B'Elanna (Star Trek Voyager) - Very sweet and very sexy. Blood Fever was one of the hottest VOY episodes simply for that scene in the tunnels between Tom and B'Elanna.
Top 5 "Not My Favorite, But They're Very Nice Alternate Choices" Ships
1. Paris/Anyone (Star Trek Voyager) - see above. I think I've read most of the Paris fic out there.
2. Spike/Anyone (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) - If he's not with Buffy, I'm not really partial to anyone.
3. Harry/Draco (Harry Potter) - I've read it, I've enjoyed it, but if I'm going to read HP, I'll read Snarry.
4. McKay/Beckett (Stargate Atlantis) - This was actually my first SGA pairing, but then I saw the light that is McShep. Still, I sometimes read McBeckett for the nostalgia. I much prefer them as best friends.
5. Mickey/Jake (Doctor Who) - A scene deleted from the end of Rise of the Cybermen talks about how Jake and alt!Mickey were a couple, and really, it's so cute.
Top 5 Cross-Generation Ships
1. The Doctor/Rose (Doctor Who) - He's 900, she's 19, and you wouldn't think it'd work, but it does. It does. They're wonderful together.
2. Snape/adult Harry (Harry Potter) - They're wizards, okay? It's not a huge age gap!
3. Kakashi/Naruto (Naruto) - Yes, I do read it. This is another one of my WTF pairings. Don't ask. I can't explain.
That's it, I think. :)
Top 5 "I Just Don't Feel What Everyone Else Is Feeling" Ships
1. Jack/Sam (Stargate SG-1) - I'm sorry, but NO. I cannot see where all you Jack/Sam shippers are coming from! I really like Sam, and I really like Jack, but not TOGETHER for crying out loud.
2. The Doctor/Martha (Doctor Who) - Wasn't half the plot of season three how much the Doctor did NOT love Martha? Or rather, how much he was NOT in love with Martha.
3. The Doctor/Donna (DW) - Again, half the plot of season four was that they were best mates, not in love. And they're good best mates. I was so sad when he wiped Donna's memories.
4. Jim/Bones (Star Trek XI) - Okay, I do see where people are coming from, I just don't particularly like them as a romantic couple. They're best friends, okay? Jim is SPOCK's.
5. Paris/Chakotay (Star Trek Voyager) - It seems to be the biggest slash pairing in the fandom, but I just don't feel it. *sigh*
Top 5 "I Hope These Die" Ships
1. Jack/Sam (Stargate SG-1) - Oh, god, stop with the Jack/Sam already! That scene in 200 was only bearable because Jack looked not only clueless but vaguely uncomfortable, and because they made that J/D joke.
2. Spock/Uhura (Star Trek XI) - Okay, WTF, PTB? WTF? You are an emotional substitute, Uhura, for the one that was SUPPOSED to be comforting Spock. You were there because Spock and Kirk weren't friends yet. I hope they break up in XII.
3. Jack/Gwen (Torchwood) - I understand why Gwen goes panting after Jack like--but really. Stop.
4. Rodney/Jennifer (Stargate Atlantis) - Okay, so maybe "I hope it dies" is a bit extreme for my feelings, and they ARE cute, but it gets in the way of the McShep, and there's been McShep for far longer than there's been Jennifer. I want McShep, damnit.
5. John/Teyla and John/Elizabeth (SGA) - I DO NOT SEE THESE PAIRINGS, PEOPLE. STOP WRITING THEM.
Top 5 Crossover Ships
Okay, see, I love crossovers, but most of my ships stay within show boundaries. Still...
1. Spike/Jack Harkness (BtVS/TW) - I've read some fantastic fic where John Hart is actually a few-thousand-years-old Spike. Awesome! Eternal OTP, man.
2. Rose/Spike (DW/BtVS) - I read a fic where Rose was turned into a vampire, and her sire looked like Billy Idol and had a black leather coat. Ring any bells?
3. Daniel/Blair (SG-1/The Sentinel) - I've never seen ANY of the Sentinel, but it's such a prevalent crossover in SG-1 fandom I just started reading and accumulated knowledge from there. I've read Daniel/Blair as a prequel to Daniel/Jack.
4. Daniel/Jim (SG-1/The Sentinel) - see above.
5. Kirk/Sheppard (XI/SGA) - I read a fantastic commentfic where John and Jim had sex and it was one of the funniest fics I've ever read.
Other Ships
I had to mention these two, because I went through a phase wherein all I read was Star Trek RPS. I still love the pairings, but I haven't read any in months.
Chris Pine/Zachary Quinto - young, pretty boys with good on-screen (interview) chemistry
Bill Shatner/Leonard Nimoy - old school RPS! Oh, my heart--there are some gorgeous fics in the little Shatnoy corner of fandom.

| Prairie Dog Meme! |
[25 Jul 2010|04:00am] |
When ever you see 'prairie dog' post some Doctor/Rose because they are the stuff of legend.
:) Snagged from ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif?v=92.2) spellweaver731
I couldn't help myself. It's one of the sweetest Ten/Rose moments from one of the best episodes in the show.

| Buffy Meme Again! |
[24 Jul 2010|03:02am] |
Just saw this meme in my journal and since I'm with the Buffy again, have a quote!
When you see this, post another Buffy quote in your LJ. Let's see how long this can go on.
SPike: You'll never be friends. You'll fight, and you'll shag, and you'll hate each other til it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends. Love isn't brains, children, it's blood. Blood screaming inside you to work it's will. I may be Love's Bitch, but at least I'm mad enough to admit it.
^ Above from memory. Let's see how good I am...
Spike: You'll never be friends. You'll be in love till it kills you both. You'll fight, and you'll shag, and you'll hate each other till it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends. (points at his temple) Love isn't brains, children, it's blood... (clasps his chest) blood screaming inside you to work its will. I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it.
Hey, hey! Not bad. Only one line off. :D

| Sketches! |
[20 Feb 2010|10:38pm] |
So I got back into magistream...which was probably not the best idea ever, as its sucking up all my time, free and not. But there are some good things coming out of it. Since I joined about a week ago, I've drawn 9 full-body figures. NINE. Jesus fuck, I've never drawn so much EVER. And half of it is new positions or clothing or whatever that I've never tried before. I've drawn two skeletons. SKELETONS for crying out loud. That is two too many, if you ask me. Bones are a fucking pain in the ass! But I've also colored two, which gives me a bit more coloring experience, and I'm going to get more, hopefully. I started an art shop, doing commissions for frankly scandalously low prices--probably should hike them up, but whatever--and there are options for sketches and colored. So it'll be...an experience. Yeah. BUT I DREW THE CUTEST EVER PUPPY AND COLORED IT IN. :D :D :D
LOOK SEE WHAT I DREW:
( this way for arts )

| Why Twilight is not Romance, but Abuse |
[25 Jan 2010|02:50pm] |
THIS.
Okay, this honestly scares me. Because it is being toted as the model romance, and women make this their model romance... So when this happens IRL, it'll be no big deal, it won't be abuse, it'll be romance. And that's just sick and twisted and wrong.

| Twilight Rant |
[25 Jan 2010|12:17pm] |
I admit, with much shame, that I actually liked the Twilight books for a time. I read the first three right after New Moon came out, and truthfully thought Twilight was the only good one, but that the others were decent. Fast forward to Breaking Dawn, where I don't even get a third of the way through the book before I throw it down in writerly frustration. Dear Lord, how had I ever liked this crap?! I say this now because I am reading an insanely hilarious (Push Me Off A) CliffNotes version here. GO READ. If you hate Twilight, you'll love this. If you like Twilight and have a sense of humor, you'll still love this. If you love Twilight and have no sense of humor and take things personally at the drop of a hat, you'll hate this, and don't read it please. Otherwise: Go! Read! Laugh! Commiserate!
In other news: YAY RENT!
ETA: Huh, I remember why I kept reading the Twilight series. I wanted them to have sex already goddamnit. I kept hoping they'd do more than kiss...then they didn't...then they didn't...then they didn't.... And we didn't even have the fun of vamping Bella. Noooo...that had to wait for the last book ALSO. Jeeze, Smeyer, cocktease much?
