cimorene: cartoony drawing of a woman's head in profile giving dubious side-eye (hm...)

i gave in to the temptation of the new printer yesterday and printed out enough slash to fill a book - specifically, a pre-bound A6 notebook, which is just the right size to have a folded piece of paper taped to each of its sheets. (so 158 half-sized pages... is a lot of ink. now our new printer cartridge is slightly less than half full. :/ but on the plus side, the new printer cartridges cost about 15 bucks a pop instead of 50.)

there's something really satisfying about holding a nice, book-sized book full of slash you've chosen yourself in your hands. ♥

for the single fandom of your choice, for a printed and bound comfort-reading (or awesome!reading - i won't restrict you!) anthology, what ≈158 pages' worth of stories would [Poll #930015]

the book i made was of the professionals stories, with the focus on the light-hearted, and i didn't actually pick my very favourite stories because i've found in my reading of wax's old bound slash (she made a ton of it about six years ago) that it's annoying to have the stuff by a single author scattered between different books. i wanted to put my favourites by m. fae glasgow - who is both unusually prolific and quite pleasing - all in one place, so my table of contents looks

by m fae glasgow:

  • Sticky Wickets (pdf format): Pre-canon, B & D's young partnership is suffering because they hate each other. Until a cricket game makes D realise how hot B is. This is shameless, fun, and funny.

  • On Thin Ice, or Skate Expectations (pdf format): A decidedly silly story in which D dares B to go ice-skating with him.

  • (as Edi N Burgh) A Hole in One (pdf format): B & D, forced to serve as golf caddies, engage in innuendo and make a lot of bad puns. Very funny.

  • (as Cally Donia) DIY: A Slow Swedish Screw (pdf format): B & D get themselves turned on via exchange of a lot of rather silly innuendoes while assembling some shelving. Then they have sex. Fun and a little silly, and rather hot.

  • Beating Around The Bush (pdf format): D's new neighbours are extremely loud. The author's narration is a bit intrusive as usual, but it works especially well for this type of humour.


christmas stories

  • The High Road (pdf format): B & D spend Christmas in Scotland at Cowley's mother's. The adventures with Cowley and his mother are highly memorable and frequently hilarious; the tension between B and D is engaging but rather melodramatic.

  • (as Gael X Ile) I Saw Three Ships (pdf format): B runs away from his family Christmas early and shows up on D's doorstep to celebrate with him. Romance, strongly sweet, but perhaps not quite sickeningly fluffy.

  • Jingle Balls, or Hard Times (pdf format): D has to get extremely drunk before he has the courage to try it on with B, so he makes a habit of getting extremely drunk. Mainly a comedy of misunderstanding, with some other comedy thrown in too.

  • Screwged, or Nanny's Christmas Carol (pdf format): A twist on Dickens wherein D is visited by spirits of Bodies past and present in the form of wet dreams, and then a rather portentous Cowley as the ghost of the future. A bit crackish, as A Christmas Carol-inspired pieces tend to be, but genuinely moving.

Object of Desire: This is a newly-established story. And it's an unusually good, but not at all heavy, kink [bdsm] story - a brush with kink, as it were, but not B & D being kinky per se - just B having a bit of experience of it.


this is what our big crate'o'slash looks like: .  now i'm rather excited about making more of these, and my excitement seems like it may be catching, because wax mentioned making one for supernatural.
