Oh, and a rec. [livejournal.com profile] copperbadge is being prolific again. Turnabout, which is Sirius and Remus and libraries. Oh, and :

Wibble is not in the Dictionary of Cool (admittedly a small dictionary, and usually not containing words more than two syllables long).

Which of course gets me giggling and thinking of the Monks of Cool....

And Eddie Izzard. In which the circular barometer of cool goes 'Cool... cool... cooler... looking like a dickhead.'

Mostly because cool is a matter of style. Some people can carry off the Matrix gear of biiiiig flared trenchcoat and sunglasses. Others cannot. It is merely a fact of life.

Anyway. On pairings. Everyone has favourite pairings. Often it is due to the writer. Mostly it is due to the watching/reading. Sometimes they change. For example, yours truly used to be such a little Harry/Draco girl. Still not too fond of Harry with anyone else, but you get so sick of redemptionista! Draco that it's a right arse to read it anymore. Draco is a little tosser, that's all there is to it. Fic in which he stays an utter tosser but is having sex with Harry is all good and right by me. *Big* Remus/Snape shipper, but it's difficult to find. For a long while I just couldn't be arsed with Remus/Sirius. Yes, this is practically canon. Yes, it is screamingly obvious. The only thing was that it was just so bleeding prolific. And like all prolific pairings, there's the general rule of thumb of 30% good, 70% frickin' awful. And precisely because it was so obvious, I couldn't be arsed to read it. I went and found obscure author-created pairings like Neville/Percy and perved on [livejournal.com profile] glockgal's Weasley art. However, a couple of months ago I finally succumbed due to [livejournal.com profile] minkboylove's dabbling in Remus/Sirius. I'd loved everything else of hers, so might as well try it, right? :sigh: Slippery slope. Soon after that I discovered [livejournal.com profile] copperbadge, and a few others... and now I crave it. I'm still immensely picky about which authors I choose, though.
