Jelle said he'd be here at five for our date with Harry P, which leaves me less than forty-five minutes to fold my laundry, do the dishes, put snacks up in the attic and get dinner ready. Oh and post the reclist I promised [livejournal.com profile] tanisafan so she will have something to read after seeing The Order Of The Phoenix. She is to blame for getting me into Harry Potter fanfiction, so she must be rewarded;)
As I told her last week I will not slash any other HP-characters or read other stories outside of canon, but Sirius/Remus just don't get enough text in the books and the subtext has potential. However, most stories I've read so far all could have been about random guys. For me the fun in fanfiction is a more indepth exploration of those specific characters. Luckily among the massive amount of stories I stumbled on what must be the best writer in that fandom: [livejournal.com profile] franticbabbles She also wrote some awesome grown-up stuff, but this is the story about how it all started: Sirius and Remus at Hogwarts, scenes from Year One - Year Three - Year Four - Year Five - Year Six - Year Seven

There are no scenes of Year Two (yet?) and the stories haven't been written in chronological order. They can be read as stand alones. Let me know if you like them (or not;) and maybe I'll post a longer reclist later.

*off to get ready for The Goblet Of Fire (in the attic) and The Order Of The Phoenix on the even bigger screen;)*

Oh, dear. I have so much to answer for :P.
And of course we won't read any fic outside of canon, since Remus/Sirius is very clearly canon *nod*.

Yay for the links (and for LJ finally cooperating enough for me to see them), I copypasted the lot to word and will read them in my next study break, hee!

I've decided that I'm allowed to fangirl obsessively about Harry Potter for the rest of July. I do hope noone will mind ;). *off to post movie review*

Oh yes, it is absolutely canon. I instructed Jelle to read the book and agree with us;) As if the movies didn't also show us the truth. Just look at your icon.

I hope you like that story as much as I did. I posted a naughtier link in today's post. Under the comfort-cut;)

I too will continue fangirling. I might even go see tOotP again. But first I'm gonna start in book 6. *runs off to reading chair*

Just found it, am off to read it now ;), wheeee. And I really should stop posting 500 word comments, sigh.

I'll try to go see OotP again this week, and finish Goblet, at looong last. Have fun reading! We must all obsess as much as possible, while we have an excuse to! ;)

*cannot stop using icon*

Oh, please don't stop, it made me feel better about posting a fricking novel about my feelings;) I need a little time to get my thoughts together and will probably reply with another inane amount of text;)

I love that I'm not the only one going a bit loopy about Potter. I had such a great time with Jelle as well, it is awesome to be able to share the insanity:)

Hee, it's so totally eating my brain these days. Me and my mom had a great talk after the film, I love fangirling with her. I think I annoyed the hell out of Jolanda yesterday with my four-hour meta discussion on why she doesn't like the books and what can be done to fix them :P. And made arrangements to see the film again on Thursday, bwahaha.

Oh and found more lurvely Remus/Sirius stories here; which I'll be finishing today when I'm alone at the office. Hem, hem. Am reading Stealing Harry now, but loved 'Alive' to pieces.

You annoyed her? So you didn't manage to convince her she's missing out? Tsss.

I found angstfic, but since I'm not an expert in that genre I thought I'd let you read it before I rec it to Chemfishee: Five MORE Ways to Make Remus Lupin Cry. Let me know if I put that in the right categorie, since I'm more smutgirl than angstlover;)

I believe she may be lost to the ranks, yes. Sigh. Oh well, it makes sense that I know at least *one* person who's not into HP. One must maintain a perspective, after all :P.

Ooo, fic. I'll go read that now (and randomly: I made a start on my recs list of doom and it's already nearing 100 fics. Wondering if I can pick your brain on it?)

*off to read, wahey*

Ahw that's too bad. You are too kind to see the good in that;)

I know what I'll be doing in my vacation: I'll gladly help out on the reclist! I found a humongeous long Remus/Sirius list, categorised by rating, which does not work for me at all: I need some discription of genre to decide whether I should try a story. Oh well, I'll start with the adult stuff. Will keep you posted;)

*hands you a hanky* Do you think this story might work to get chemfishee to cave in and join us in the land of R/S-ff?

Yay, thank you! Honestly, I mostly need recs in the CSI and HP departments and you'd be perfect for that, hee :P. Will send you what I have later on (it's quite limited thusfar, because my father's computer is a slow sunovabitch and it takes me ten minutes to add a link *pulls out hair*)!

Gawd, that fic. But it was good. So good. It's already on The List :P.
