minxyI am BETTER! and LJ is BETTER! Yay! We must celebrate, is my thinking.
So I asked for recommendations of stuff wot you've read and enjoyed in the last month without me (it is a bitter pill that life goes on when I'm not there, I tell you) and y'all came through in fine form. Your recommendations are here.
Two recs, though, really need louder crowing, to my mind.
One is some perfectly wonderful Firefly smut from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
alizarin_nyc. She wrote characters that I, in principle, am on board with, but rarely see written as three dimensional (*koff*JOSS*koff*) So this is Inara/Jayne. Seriously. A little dark, perfectly in character, and fascinating. NC-17, kink and multiple partners, I suppose. Really something. Benificence.
The other is an extraordinary piece of multimedia fromzoetrope. It's AU SGA, period John/Rodney, in which Rodney is designing WWII bombers in England and John is a test pilot. Love and danger ensues, all in the frame work of letters sent years later from Jeannie's family trying to finally find Rodney. It's beautiful like an old movie. The story really could have stood alone; the images (some from period movies that JF and DH have done, marvelously), embellishments, video and sound are really, really good gravy. Missed the Saturday Dance. You don't have to be a John/Rodney or SGA fan to appreciate this one. Slash, but fairly worksafe.
Gowan. I know they aren't SG-1; you should check them out anyway.

Hmmm is right.

So, hmmm. I think I shall simply watch how it plays out, and accept the wanting to be with me as the compliment that it is.
He's figured out how to chat online, though, so my rather noble goal of not responding to emails for 24 hours has been thwarted. I can see a change in the tone of the writing from both of us, though. Less loss and confusion, more just pleasure that the other person is this available. Talking about music and life instead of just the time spent together.
Hmmm.
