Untitled poem by Perrin, 7/14/05

jenny, aka crunchy aunt, sent me this poem composed by perrin, who is now three and a half.

You smell quite fine
Like an old, tasty olive brine.

abridged fic recap

it happens that i recently saw a dangerous man, a bbc movie sequel to lawrence of arabia starring ralph fiennes and alexander siddig, the former in his screen debut as lawrence and the latter as sherif feisal.  in this film, they are slashy.  so i happened to just slip and fall accidentally, the other day, into a couple of slash recs.

one of them was for moth to the flame by madelyn scott, where the code of the page is extremely fucked and it looks like alphabet soup. all the japanese characters on the page make it look like alphabet soup if you don't have support for those characters installed.   i saved the source and spent several hours deleting the mess before i could read it, and today i decided to report to perhael the results of my labour. 

the story is quite long, but i have briefly recapped below the four significant scenes for the romance plot (with an intent towards humour, the success of which other people can judge).  i enjoyed the story quite a lot; it's long and interesting and romantic (if perhaps overblown) and the details are authentic-seeming enough, at least, to fool me. i wouldn't put it on my recs page because of the above-mentioned, specifically the Innocent Virgin plot element, but it sure was fun.

recapped scenes based upon moth to the flame by madelyn scott. lawrence/feisal, r (recap)/nc-17 (fic), 768 words. ( will you be touching my soul? )
