We choose to go to the moon...

switchknife wrote, lizardspots drew, and the end result was The Secret-Keeper. Holy fuck. It's hot and raw and wrong and so fucking good. It's also, as the warnings probably tip you off, not for everyone.

Pairings: Snape/Hermione, implied Hermione/Ron.
Summary: Knowledge is power, but endurance is strength.
Warnings: Teacher/student relations, underaged sex, abuse of authority, dubious consent, coercion, dirty talk, voyeurism, masturbation, cunnilingus.

The Secret-Keeper. Gah. My brain is fried from the hot and the wrong and the so, so good.

I'm working on a redesign to my HP recs page which will also be a redesign of the rest of the pages over at Moonshot so I'm going through my Lotrips recs. I had a near panic this morning when I couldn't access Thank You by _cee. It's a follow-up to She Knows She Can Take It by veuki, it's Liv/Viggo, there's object insertion, and it's delicious. It turns out that the link changed since I last read the story but I would have been a very disappointed girl if it had been gone for good.

Moral of this tale? Read both stories if you haven't already. They're fabulous.

Related to the site redesign, I have to mention that not_satisfied is one of the most generous people I've met on-line. She's one in a million.

shamrock_kid tagged me for this meme: Rules: Pick seven songs that you're into right now, list them. Pick seven friends who have to repeat this process, list them.

I don't actually know the names of most of the new songs on the radio but I'll give it a go:
1) The "come on dj, won't you turn the music up" song.
2) The new Missy Elliot song.
3) ADIDAS. I'm experiencing a bit of a JC renaissance.
4) "Joking" - The Indigo Girls. "You said the world was magic I was wide eyed and laughing..."
5) The new Mariah Carey song. The "shake it" one. Or something like that.
6) Joss Stone's versio of "Some Kind of Wonderful."
7) "This Womans' Work" - Kate Bush.

I'm not tagging anyone for this but I'll read your list if you post it. :)

Last thing. I love my job. It's satisfying, challenging, and interesting. That said, I wish whatever I did for a living led me to say things like this in passing - "I mean for example, if we integrate over an interval [a,b],
and lim n --> inf int_[a,b] f_n(x) = 0, then I doubt that lim n--> inf int_[a,b] f_n(x) g(x) dx = 0 even if g is very nice. Of course if lim n --> inf int_[a,b] |f_n(x)| = 0, then it's trivial. Maybe the modular function is super special though hah?" Instead, I can read that kind of stuff here. Ah, mathematics. It's a beautiful place for the wanna be math geek in us all.
