caution: swearing

[mhalachai]

I swear to *god*, I have never been so close to abandoning Inevitable as I am right now. Think I can go back a few chapters and have Olaf and Nathaniel having a nice tea party instead? At this point, it would be less painful to spork my eyes out. This chapter is never going to fucking end.

[/rant]

yeah, yeah, back at it. No fic abandonage today.

So, um, today's link/rec/point: Today's Harry Potter news:

The Vatican's whipped out its head exorcist to say Harry Potter is evil. As anyone who's read mctabby's summary executions knows, he's right.

A blogger is comparing those recently unveiled claim that Judas was helping Jesus, as published in the Gospels of Judas, with the actions of Snape in HBP.

ETA: Sheesh, I'm whining again, aren't I? Somebody slap me. Really, I do enjoy writing. I do, I do, I do believe in fairies.

What, is Nathaniel in his Nobody Has Suffered As Much As Me So They All Need To Refrain From Lecturing Me About Being A Twit mode?

Here's what you need to do:

Have JC and Micah, between the two of them (and maybe Jason as a last resort) glom onto Anita's feelings -- the ones Nathaniel refuses to let himself feel as he's shut down the marks. Then have them all cut loose at once on Nathaniel. Nathaniel either dies of sheer ridiculous angst (have I mentioned lately how much I hate forced songfic-style angst?) or he snaps the hell out of it.

(have I mentioned lately how much I hate forced songfic-style angst?)

Just for you, I'll have an Evanescene song playing in the background during the crucial Anita/Nathaniel confrontational angst scene. I think Going Under will do nicely.

I'll see you your Evanescence's "Going Under" and raise you Leonard Cohen's "Famous Blue Raincoat". (It's torn at the shoulder, you know.)

LJ be acting up again -- nobody's comments are showing up in my mailbox, the way they're supposed to. (Pout.)
