March brings not only spring but our delectable Dick Grayson! ;)

Pomp And Circumstance is told from the POVs of the World’s Finest but it’s about their boy all grown up and graduating.

Balance presents Bruce’s ruminations on his sparkling lover.

Hi, luvs! I'm eagerly awaiting the Patriots/Texans game tonight. Should be a good game! It's on ESPN and locally, on our ABC affiliate. This is an important game for Tommy and the boys. If they win, they can inch closer to either a one or two seed and get that bye week to rest up. I'll have a full report tomorrow. :)

How are you all doing? Signed up for a lot of fannish gift exchanges? I signed up for three:

[livejournal.com profile] clexmas Gift Exchange: It's all set to be handed in on December 20th. The mods will post for us and then the big reveals will be in January.

WFGE: First draft written. I just need to edit/type now, which I started today.

Bruce/Dick Small Gifts Exchange: Not written yet but I've got ideas. Good, because I need to have it done by December 28th, if that date's approved. :)

They'll probably cross over with my 2012 DCU Fic/Art Silver Bells Winter Holidays Challenge and [livejournal.com profile] saavikam77's 2012 DCU Free_For_All Winter Holidays Challenge.

I'm also working on the fic that was won for the [livejournal.com profile] fandomaid auction, so the rest of the year should be busy! Also, expect updates on Rainbow's Freedom that will inch us closer to the finale. :)

I was a good girl and didn't over-extend myself. I like the way the different gift exchanges are conducted: either choose your prompt or be specifically assigned a giftee. Both ways are fun! :) If you're looking for holiday inspiration, still prompts left at the WFGE! :)

You can also find this story on A03.

I recommend checking out the Fest. Lots of high-quality stuff over there! A prompt I submitted, Sunshine, was claimed for both art and fic.

The art fill, Sunshine, is gorgeous. The first page is rather dark (at least on my computer) but keep clicking on the links for the subsequent pages. In fact, Page 2 has a panel of Dick that is the most beautiful I’ve ever seen of him. It’s breathtaking! The expressions on both him and Bruce show us just what they’re feeling. Stoopz is an incredible artist.

The fic fill, He’s Gold-Tipped And Tinted by uses words to paint a picture of our beautiful bird in all his sunshine glory. This is an exquisite little piece by thesunkid that I think you’ll agree is just as breathtaking as the art fill.

Enjoy! :)

Winter returns, and though our ship is left shivering in the cold throughout the year, it’s time again to stoke the Clex fires with the sheer hotness of our ship. Sweet and early pre-slash, domestic and homey, far flung AUs, late season fix-it fics-- Let our fannish verve keep us toasty warm. This is for the boys, after all!

The annual Clexmas Holiday Gift Exchange is here!

This was my first visit to the movie theater since Aurora, but aside from a few minutes of nervousness all was perfectly normal. I entered the theater and no one searched my bag, but it was a small purse, not a backpack or anything like that. The only difference I could see was that the ticket takers had walkie-talkies and the car marked Security outside is usually around, anyway. There were about two dozen people for the very early matinee.

If you don’t want to be spoiled, DO NOT READ THIS REVIEW! There will be MAJOR SPOILERS!

I knew this movie would break my heart )

While I will always love Batman Begins best, I would say this movie was a worthy entry into the Nolanverse trilogy and would recommend it to any Bat or Christian Bale fan.

Yikes, time is slipping away from me! It's time again for the second round of the [livejournal.com profile] history_bigbang. If you have an idea for a historical story or would like to create art or beta, check out the FAQ. This time around there will be options for a Big Bang and Mini Big Bang.
bradygirl_12: (steve--tony (profiles--close))
Hi, luvs! Very bizzy today! It seems as if I've fallen into a pattern lately of doing all my pro writing first and then relaxing later in the day with fanfic writing/typing/reading. And I've been spending a ton of hours over on the [livejournal.com profile] avengerkink meme. Just reading the prompts alone is entertaining, though the fills are great fun, too, LOL! I've even left a handful over there myself. :)

I know there are DC kink memes, so if you have knowledge of any, let me know! I am totally immersed in Marvelverse for now but wouldn't mind slipping back over to DC for kinky good times! ;)
bradygirl_12: (steve--tony (glow))
Gotta rec this one! A Comforting Presence by You_Light_The_Sky is one of the best movieverse Avengers fics I've read, and I've been reading reams of 'em! :) Everyone is broken but how they are becoming a team (and family) is beautifully depicted. The descriptions of Steve's murals are worth reading alone! There are various pairings are in this fic, with eventual Steve/Tony.

I don't think I've read Steve's PTSD and grief over being a man out of time done so well as by this author, so please give it a try! It's a WIP but she has ten chapters planned (Chapter 3 is the latest) and you'll have wonderful summer reading if you start this tale.
bradygirl_12: (steve--tony (profiles--close))
Hi, luvs! Check out the fabulous [livejournal.com profile] hitokaji's wonderful drawing of Steve, Thor, and Loki here! She just keeps getting better and better. I love her style! The illo is my wallpaper right now here at home. :)
bradygirl_12: (steve--tony (profiles--close))
Got that Avengers fever? Looking for icons?

The very talented [livejournal.com profile] ctbn60 took my Avengers icon request and created a cornucopia of fantastic movieverse and comicsverse goodness! Lots of Steve/Tony but a bunch of other Avengers, too! Go check out the goodies here. :)

Wow, thank The Avengers for the explosion of sign-ups over there! :)
bradygirl_12: (clex (talon--laughter 2))
Looks like this year I'll be cheerleading instead of writing Big Bangs but I get to read all the goodies! ;) The [livejournal.com profile] smallvillebbang is taking sign-ups for authors so go check it out!

Now for our sister community, Marvel Comics:


[livejournal.com profile] marvel_bang

Sign-ups for authors begin on May 30th. Here is the Prompting Post.

Did I tell you guys I got to see The Avengers movie again a few nights ago? I sure needed that after last week! Even if you're a DC girl or guy through-and-through and know nothing about the Marvel characters, see this movie! As a superhero fan you will enjoy it. :) And if you're all fired up about writing Marvel after seeing the movie, this is a good place to do it! :)

Also, imagine my delight when I posted The Soldier And The Scientist I: Man Out Of Time to A03 and in less than two hours received almost 200 hits and six kudos and a comment, up to eight kudos this morning and 278 hits. Wow, after getting only a handful of comments on DC work lately, this is heady stuff! :)

The author sign-ups start May 30th. There's a Prompting Post where you can pick up or leave prompts.

I highly recommend trying this if you have never done a Big Bang before. You may tear your hair out, heh heh, but you'll enjoy a tremendous sense of satisfaction when it's done. And the minimum word count is 10,000. Not bad! :)
bradygirl_12: (chloe (evil bride))
Hi, luvs! Eep, I have a week left before my manuscript is due after the Big Edit. ;) I might be finished early but right now am pulling my hair out over a handful of chapters. I might need to do some intense work on it the next few days.

Right now [livejournal.com profile] dark_fest has officially concluded but it's the amnesty period! So if you'd like to write something dark and saw a prompt that fit but didn't have time or missed the sign-up, check out the details here. There was some fantastic DCU fic this year! :) You can find the fandom by clicking on the tag on the sidebar.

I'd like to pimp [livejournal.com profile] history_bigbang, too. Some outstanding stuff over there! I hope that the mod goes ahead with it again next year. :)

As long as I'm pimping, [livejournal.com profile] clexmas has started its Spring Fling. For all you Clex fans, check out the details here.

Did I miss anything? Probably, so if I think of it, I'll pimp again! ;)
