I love FB. It has absolutely shoddy privacy, it is messy and irritating and a vortex of procrastination and insanity; it's also one of the things that kept me sane in the past few months when I was far away from home and under immense pressure. That said, I also have no intention whatsoever of reposting my LJ posts/comments to FB, and vice versa. They are two different parts of my life, and I generally prefer to keep it that way - my mother does not need to know what I think of pr0n, and you guys don't want to know which restaurant I'm at right now, and so on. I can understand why LJ is trying to connect the services and expand their userbase (there are, in fact, a lot of fans - let alone other users - who are Twitter/Tumblr only), but it does not interest me in any way. The thing about flocked posts and screened comments, especially, is a major breach of privacy, and I hope they fix it soon.

Meanwhile, I don't want to disable comments on my LJ (although I am considering disabling them on flocked entries for the moment) or move permanently to DW, so here's a request: please don't crosspost anything on this journal to either Twitter or FB. I am not going to enable that option either, so you can expect the same courtesy from me in return.

I also have a few DW codes lying around, so if you're considering crossposting/moving/getting a fic journal over there, just ask.

I haven't been reading all the Merlin Big Bang stories (there's so only so much Merlin&Arthur I can read before I get bored and wander off elsewhere), but I quite enjoyed this one: The Tournament of All Magicks by [profile] corlinnam, post-S2, M/A, 40K words. I love stories that explore Merlin's brand of ~Powerful Magic~ and the world of magic users, and I really loved what the author did here.

I'm slowly trying to get back to the realm of writing, but plot is hard. Why can't I just skip from the characters not being on good terms to feelings and stuff?

I am sad I won't be doing [community profile] femslash10. [profile] femslash09 was incredibly fun. Meanwhile, I'm not writing, fan fiction or Other Important Things, and it is a terrible, terrible thing. Have some random post-finale Cara torture so that you can feel terrible too.

I ignored things I was supposed to do (like, you know, study) and watched the last few episodes of House, so I'm all caught up now! I'll talk about it later, brain a little fried at the moment. Meanwhile, have a snippet of the Merlin-HP fusion AU I have been threatening to write for a while now, just to remind myself that I can still write and should get back to it again. With my sincerest apologies to JKR.
