| (Copied from krytella for convenience/laziness) Blanket permission is a way for fan artists to let other fans know their comfort with others playing with their works. It's particularly helpful to podficcers when authors give blanket permission for anyone to podfic their works without having to ask first. To find out more on blanket permission with regards to podfic check out pod_aware on LJ or DW.I give blanket permission for any kind of transformative fanwork: illustration, graphics, podfic, unauthorized sequels, etc. Just please let me know if you do something so I can appreciate it! | |

| You guys, you know that I love you right? We've had some good times plotting and shipping together, but things are starting to get a little out of control and I feel like I have to say something.
Look, shipping is fun. Dog knows I have my favorite ships (Toko, Sokka/Zuko, Zutara... I basically just ship everyone with Zuko except for Mai). The thing is, though, they're all just for funsies and I feel like a few people around here have forgotten that their head-canon ship is just that. Head canon.
The creators of ALTA are NOT going to to cater to you and your preferred ship. No, not even if you whine and cry about it.
It feels weird for me to even have to point this out, because, duh, right? Yet here we are with people sending letters and screeching on their tumblrs/LJ's that Bryke that the nerve, the nerve not to validate that Toph and Sokka had a secret love child, and that love child is Lin.
You guys, that's what fan fiction and fan art is for. You can have that and everything else your imagination can come up with. But when you start mistaking your own personal theories for the shows canon.... that's when you have to step back. It's starting to cross the line between silly fun and a little delusional.
I love you, but knock it off. You're creeping me out.
~ A fellow fan.
(Comment if you want, but I'm going to freeze and delete any ship bashing that comes off in any way shape or form.)
Edit: Seriously, I am TRYING to enjoy an eclipse here without blowing up my phone with email. I've frozen certain threads to avoid an endless cycle of wank. This is why we can't have nice things. - Tags:rant

| Title: Quietus Pairing: Eames/Arthur Rating: R Summary: (Modern day slave!AU) In life, Eames is a beaten down slave, but in the dreamworld he's smooth, dangerous, and sexy. And even though he's Dom's property, he's gotten under Arthur's skin. TRIGGER WARNINGS: Slavery, implication of previous non-consensual sex, classism, brutality, and possible dubious consent depending on how you see it, treating people as objects, implied mild to moderate torture, suicide (in a dream), moral ambiguity by the good guys, and forced silencing. I don't want to give the impression this is some sort of ultra-dark fic, because it isn't, but the last thing I want to do is trigger anyone. So if you are at all sensitive to these issues I ask that you give this fic a pass. You are reading at your own risk. Chapter 1 | Chapter 2 | Chapter 3***** ( The extraction was pulled off with textbook ease. ) | |

| Before I forget:
I totally ship Korra/the heavy earthbender.
Brolin? Bralin? Eh, I can't remember. But helllllooooo new OTP. | |

And even though he's Dom's property, he's gotten under Arthur's skin. Author's Note: This is a WIP I started waaaaay back in July on the kink meme and is still in process. Due to the subject line drama (we can edit them now, but for how long?) I'm cleaning it up and slowly moving it over to my journal.

|  Why yes, I am participating in the self indulgence snowflake challenge. Day 1
In your own space, post a rec for at least three fanworks that you have created. It can be your favorite fanworks that you've created, or fanworks you feel no one ever saw, or fanworks you say would define you as a creator. Drop a link to your post in the comments. These are a few of my favorite things: The Problem With Zuko (27,495 words -- PG-13) Summary: AU: Lu Ten never died at Ba Sing Se, and Fire Lord Iroh rules the nation with an iron fist. Zuko is merely the son of the second prince, overlooked by his more talented younger sister and can only dream of the day when he will be finally allowed to prove himself in battle. When Lu Ten returns, triumphant, with the Avatar and his Water Tribe companions in chains, Zuko is put in charge of their imprisonment. But he soon learns that things are not what they seem with both the child Avatar and within his own family. And soon, Zuko will have a decision to make. How much good can one overlooked nephew to the throne do? Why I like it: I managed a complete AU from start to finish while hosting a fest, and it didn't turn out half-bad (if I say so myself). Reading back through it, there are a few things I would change -- key phrases and some elaboration and so forth -- but I still like it. Lu Ten was a blast to write as a flawed character, especially. Butterfly Day (28,834 words -- NC-17) Summary: A split in a disturbed mark's mind leads to two different fates for Arthur and Eames. How much difference can a single decision make? (A story where they fall in love, and a story where they don't. But things still just might turn out in the end anyway.) Why I like it: This was sort of my ode to love for the Inception fandom at the time. I signed up for the Reverse Bang and went nuts with it, writing almost 29k in six weeks. Again, while I think it could be better, it's not half bad. It's sort of a take-off of that movie Sliding Doors, and manages to carry off two separate plots that resolve together at the end. I learned a lot about plotting and writing in the 'real world' vs fantasy worlds like Avatar and Naruto. I haven't looked back. Inner Vision (4,963 words -- PG-13) Summary: When Kakashi first began to see people's souls manifested as animals, he naturally assumed he had lost his mind. Why I like it: This was my first foray into Naruto, and it's still one of my favs. It was so easy to write -- I think I banged it out in, like, a couple of hours. The editing is a little sloppy, but His Dark Materials crossovers are always a blast to write and this was no different. | |

| Title: In His Shoes Rating: PG-13 Disclaimer: Avatar is not mine. Belongs to Nick. Summery: In order to fully understand a man, you must first walk a mile in his shoes. Sokka and Zuko are going to find that out the hard way. Spoilers: Only for season 2 Notes: Happy New Year! ***** ( Tomorrow, Sokka would be boarding a ship to the Fire Nation. ) | |

| Title: Just a Little Touch Pairing: Eames/Arthur (Inception) Rating: NC-17 Word count: ~24,200 Summary: "You're having me on. You expect me to believe you're not interested at all in finding your mate? The dom to your sub? The one who holds the key to your frozen, black heart?" (Based off of the kink meme prompt: In this AU, the world is with tops and bottoms (instead of male/female) people become soul-mates once they have sex with their One True Love.)Notes: This is a fic I originally wrote in the kink meme waaaaay back in the spring and have slowly been cleaning up and reposting. All nine chapters can now be found on A03. **** A03 link: ("Ah," Eames said. "You're one of those, aren't you?") | |

| Title: Quietus Pairing: Eames/Arthur Rating: R Summary: Modern day slave!AU. Based loosely on the kink meme prompt: I've seen a lot of fics where Arthur is a slave for whatever reason. What about one where Eames is? Maybe he's a beaten down slave IRL, but in the dreamworld he's smooth and dangerous and sexy and Arthur can't help but fall in love. He knows its wrong, but it feels so right.Author's Note: This is a WIP I started waaaaay back in July on the kink meme and is still in process.

TRIGGER WARNINGS: Slavery, implication of previous non-consensual sex, classism, brutality, and possible dubious consent depending on how you see it, treating people as objects, implied mild to moderate torture, graphic torture (in a dream), suicide (also in a dream), mild physical abuse, moral ambiguity by the good guys, and forced silencing. I don't want to give the impression this is some sort of ultra-dark fic, because it isn't, but the last thing I want to do is trigger anyone. So if you are at all sensitive to these issues I ask that you give this fic a pass. You are reading at your own risk. ***** ( "You realize that this isn't like buying a dog," Arthur said ) | |

| Aside from some real life bitchings, my journal has been pretty quiet. In fact, I have a backlog o' crap fanfiction that I really need to get around to posting. You know, stuff from fiction fests, various kink-memes, and so-forth. So basically, this is my apology in advance for clogging up your friends list feed over the next few days. - Mood:busy

| Update:
I've been thinking about this for some time and honestly, I couldn't give less of a shit if LJ has a problem with unlocked NC-17 fics and does another strike through sweep anymore. I've gone ahead and unlocked all of my fanfiction. (I think I got them all -- if you see any still locked, let me know.) Have at it. :)

| Hey all! Quick update: I'm settling in at work, and even picking up an extra shift here and there because I got bill collectors beatin' at my door. haha. So life has been busy, but improving! After tomorrow I won't get a day off for ten days straight, though. Boo. ANYWAY. I have some stuff to share, fandom-wise. kansouame recorded an entire podbook of Thicker Than Blood (that Inception/500 Days of Summer fic), and posted it along with some kickass art by osaki_nana_707. It's found here. Download it now! Go go go go go!!!! :D Secondly, remember how I asked for some good m/m recs the other day? Well maderr has a whole post of them. If you're so inclined, her rec list can be found here. And finally, Rampage has been translated into French by Ariane 57 and can be found here: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7522157/1/Who's a lucky girl? I'm a lucky girl. | |

| It's been a exhausting few days (more details to come under my f-lock), but this sure brightened my mood! kansouame has done an excellent job podficcing Thicker Than Blood, the Inception/500 Days of Summer crossover I wrote awhile back. It's not done yet, but the first three chapters are available here: http://kansouame.livejournal.com/56787.htmlShe's also been podficcing the The Bijozakura Seal written by Megyal here. It's one of my very favorite KakaIru fics and it's such a kick to listen to. GOGOGOGOGOGO! :D | |
