Nothing like meta to get the juices flowing, yes?

For [livejournal.com profile] etrangere and [livejournal.com profile] kethlenda, with love.

Clicky clicky! )
Did you expect it all to stop
At the wave of your hand?
Like the sun's just gonna drop
If it's night you demand
Well, in the dark we're just air
So the house might dissolve.
But once we're gone,
Who's gonna care
If we were ever here at all?

Well, summer's gonna come
It's gonna cloud our eyes again.
No need to focus when there's nothing that's worth seeing.
So we trade liquor for blood
In an attempt to tip the scales;
I think you lost what you loved in that mess of details.
They seemed so important at the time,
But now you can't even recall
Any names, faces, or lines.
It's more the feeling of it all.

Well, winter's gonna end
I'm gonna clean these veins again.
So close to dying that I finally can start living.

Because I can't deny Shannon anything ever (<3), I give you Fic Commentary on "Muscle Memory."

Hello navel, my name is Gaze. )

That's all she wrote, folks!

And y'all will be pleased to know that I got some more hetporn written, although the story is still not finished.
Is it pure fanon that Voldemort can cause pain through the Mark? I mean, we know that they are some method of communication between Tom and the Death Eaters, and we know that the mark he placed on Harry - his scar, which is NOT a Horcrux, I don't care what anyone says - causes Harry pain, but I just realized that I don't remember any canon incident in which we are explicitly given to understand that Voldemort is directly affecting any physical process through the Mark. There's a reasonable canon implication that the Mark might be useful as a tracking device - Karkaroff's body was found in "a shack up north," which was likely a remote hiding place that Voldemort would not have known where to find otherwise - but the pain thing...I'm trying to remember where that came from, and I absolutely don't remember.

Actually, I'm thinking that maybe the pain thing has to be bullshit, because if Tom can cause pain or other physical harm at a distance, he would have used it to kill or incapacitate Death Eaters who had been captured. Yeah? I don't know.

The Lexicon index entry for the Dark Mark crossreferences the Protean Charm (the entry for which mentions that Hermione got the idea for the DA coins from the tattooed Dark Marks), but that's it.

You guys know how much attention I pay to detail; this is driving me nuts.
This is an essay about Harry Potter. If you do not like Harry Potter, or are not interested in reading essays concerning aspects of its canon or musings on the futures of its characters, do not read it.

I don't argue with Harry/Ginny as a viable emotional or sexual attraction. But I don't think that it'll last given the opportunity. )

Goddamn, I can't believe I spent an hour and a half on that.
Don't click if you don't want spoilers, yadda yadda etc. )

In other news, it stormed spectacularly here, and I'm getting restless.
