Dresden files
Aug. 1st, 2010 22:39This is escapist behaviour. I know, not very healthy. But I have a ton of things to do, the builders working on my apartment are arguing with each other about money and I basically felt - fuck this. Oi, world, just fuck off for the weekend
So I read Summer Knight by Jim Butcher and then followed up with Turn Coat aaaand then I wanted to read the rest of the Dresden Files. So I pulled them down as an e-book and re-read my favorite bits, cleverly using the "find" function to get all the bits with Marcone in them.
And then I read what must essentially be every Dresden/Marcone slash story on the net. Which says something about how few those are, alas, because it's really a pairing that I like.
And after having read the short story from Marcone's POV or the little notes Harry's scribbled in the RPG? Yeah, my slash-o-meter just went up. Also, Gentleman Johnnie is a scary, scary man. And somewhat obsessed with this certain wizard
If you want recs, just start at the lj-comm mafiabanter and pretty much read it all. The brilliant to crap ratio is very pleasing
Why is literary fandoms almost always so 1) small 2) intimidatingly good?
