Thread #4 - We are crazy talkers here!

ADULT DISCUSSION HERE, SO TRY TO KEEP IT CLEAN! UM NO, WAIT! IF YOU ARE EASILY OFFENDED, LOOK AWAY NOW! 

This is the new thread as the other was sooo long and had lots of pages. Continuation of our wonderful discussions on Twilight Fanfiction, Books, and Life in general.  But mostly Twilight fanfics... and life stuff that will get me a NOT ALLOWED statement. 

Okay, here is a place to discuss what you are reading, ask for recommendations and complain about the writing.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, so please play nice   

Because we know drypen's watching

Where are you looking for HP fics?  There is slash of course but there are whole sites deciated to Hermione and someone other than Ron, even FF has 1000s of non slash HP fics.  I can honestly say some of the best fics I have read have been from the HP fandom. 

The improvements to HP as far as I am concerned, centre around Hermione finding a better partner than Ron  and Snape getting a better deal but since the world of fanfiction can present wonderful AU stories, there is always something different to read.

I just see it on FFnet.  I don't really like any of the characters enough to want anything else for them I guess.  I loved the stories and the movies are enjoyable, but I don't really want to know anything else about the characters.  I mean, I wouldn't mind if Hermione had someone better. But with the available characters? No.  And really? It is hard to picture them grown up enough to be in a relationship....

Now, I wouldn't mind a good Stephanie Plum story or maybe some of Meg Cabot's characters.  But other than one that never completed, all the ones I've read are just bad.   

That's me.  I was really young when Clint was making all the spaghetti westerns that my father loved.  I remember drive-in movie theaters where I hung out on the playground, with a Clint Eastwood western on the screen.  BORING!  But my dad loved those films.

My husband loves westerns, and actually, my brother too - must be a guy thing.  So I've seen a few when Clint was young and hot, with that whole tough guy thing going on....  yeah, I could see it.

I usually read while he watches and just look up occasionally to watch a gun fight.   

pinky peen.....  (is that what you are afraid of?)

That they are all gay. Slash doesn't turn me on. The opposite actually. It kills the fantasy.

Cause obviously I would meet Matt Bomer on a coffee house and he would look at me and recognize me as his soul mate. And we would live happily ever after. Lol

But seriously, I was thinking more like they are all a.s.sholes.

My dad as well.  The only other time, other than in my parent's wedding pictures, I've ever seen my dad smile that big was when he met Clint Eastwood. 

No way, Jose!  I will never ever ever EVER ever ever date any one famous.  They live in a different, crazy, and somewhat messed up universe and I'm perfectly satisfied with mine.

Especially if they are into Scientology!

Thanks Booked. Wow non FF fans are missing out on a wealth of new words added to the English language..I'm a Harry Potter and the fiery depths of hell shipper!  Sorry! I just can't bear those books....

I loved the books, but they are so well written, I can't see how fanfiction can improve upon them.  Also, I'm really not into M/M and most of the fanfics in HP seem to be Harry & Malfoy.   

The thing with HP is the first two books are written for children and it shows, by the time you reach the 4th book (my fav) the whole thing becomes darker and more intense, appealing to the older reader.  Anyway, how can you not enjoy witches, wizard's and magic? 

I only read the first one but couldn't "get into it". of course, being a movie buff, have watched all the films. I specially liked the guy who played Cedric Diggory...little did I know he would grow up to be even more hot!  I was sure disappointed he died, was hoping a magic spell will bring him back later on but sadly, that was not the case. instead, he was resurrected as a vampire, and boy was I happy! 

He looks the most like his father from the side - his profile.

Yup.  4 times when he visited his dad on set.  3 times he had scruff and once he was clean shaven.  I liked him scruffy better. 

I never thought CE was hot.  I was too young when he was popular, and when I got older, he had aged a lot.  The first time I saw Scott, I had a double take "WHO'S THAT??" moment.

My dad as well.  The only other time, other than in my parent's wedding pictures, I've ever seen my dad smile that big was when he met Clint Eastwood. 

No way, Jose!  I will never ever ever EVER ever ever date any one famous.  They live in a different, crazy, and somewhat messed up universe and I'm perfectly satisfied with mine.

*squealing* i FLOVE your job! But of course, you are probably so used to seeing such handsome guys and knowing how they actually are in RL that you have been desensitized, rose-tinted glasses off Well, as they always say, there is no harm in looking. Just enjoy seeing the wonders of nature

Now, dang it, your comment about your dad wanting to meet Clint has made me recall a fic wheree Charlie would do anything to meet Clint so Emmett tried to pull a practical joke on him together with Actorward....i've read so many actorwards i can't recall which one it is... ELLLLLLAAAAA, help me out! was it Virgins and Villains?

I just see it on FFnet.  I don't really like any of the characters enough to want anything else for them I guess.  I loved the stories and the movies are enjoyable, but I don't really want to know anything else about the characters.  I mean, I wouldn't mind if Hermione had someone better. But with the available characters? No.  And really? It is hard to picture them grown up enough to be in a relationship....

Now, I wouldn't mind a good Stephanie Plum story or maybe some of Meg Cabot's characters.  But other than one that never completed, all the ones I've read are just bad.   

Oh deary me I could point you in the direction of some amazing fics but I know when I am flogging a dead horse.   

Sorry for being chatty. Arrived at work 2 hours early bec i had to drop off my husband at an ungodly hour for his business trip.

Being who i am, rather than working, am here... Sigh...my other officemates have started to arrive...off to the mines... Talk to you guys later! 

I'd totally read a Stephanie/Ranger/Morelli three way, since she can't freaking choose!

Well, I tend to go for Babe over Cupcake.... But when you think about it? A sandwich would be a lot of fun.....

Okay, send me a Hermione with someone other than Malfoy & I will give it a try....

OK a galloping good read is Daddy Dearest by Ms-Figg You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login (She is a published author by the way called Ruth Solomon).

If you like a little kink with your HP then you can do no better than read For the Potions Master's Amusement by snape.submiss posted here -
