AO3 Fic being scraped and sold by a website
AO3 had a major problem with robots spamming the site over the past few months from a leechbot that was trying to rapidly download as many stories as they could. Turns out there's a reason behind that: ebook-trees dot com has uploaded a great deal of fanfiction from the site as mobi downloads and PDFs, putting them behind a paywall.
It is NOT advised that you actually sign up for their paid service to view your work or give them your credit card number or personal info as they are subdivision of tzarmedia, a known pay scam site that takes your credit card info and charges you without ever providing the goods purchased.

FIC In the Present: The Talk (Alexander Skarsgard/Luke Evans)(NC-17)
In the Present: The Talk
Universe: Any Time, Any Place
Authors: ![[info]](http://www.journalfen.net/img/userinfo.gif) jennandanica and sally_simpson76
Pairing: Alexander Skarsgard/Luke Evans
Rating: NC-17
Summary: In 1994, a twenty-year-old Alex meets a fourteen-year-old Luke in the small town of Aberbargoed, Wales. In this chapter, after reconnecting -- 15 years later -- they talk about the future and Luke's interest in kink.
Warnings: fisting for this chapter and the first two parts contained warnings for 'consensual' (emotionally if not legally) underage (14/20) and fudging of ages (6 years instead of a rl!3)
Disclaimer: This is fiction. Totally make-believe. Fantasy. A figment of our overactive imaginations.
Notes: For anyone familiar with the RPG Citadel, this is NOT backstory for our pups in the game. In Citadel, Alex and Luke are only 3 years apart in age and they didn't meet until they were in their 30s. But Sally and I are convinced our boys would fall for each other in any universe, in any incarnation, and we wondered what would have happened if a younger Alex had met an even younger Luke before Luke got out of the small town he was raised in.
Feedback: Absolutely welcomed and adored.
Luke sits up and shifts so he's facing Alex. "And with me?" he asks. "Do you think you'd be okay with putting me into subspace?"
Hesitating before he answers, Alex studies Luke's face. Sure, they've probably discussed kink in some small way every time they've seen each other, but he's only just beginning to realize how serious Luke's interest is. "I'm not sure I could," he says carefully, not wanting to inadvertently offend. "I've only ever watched. I don't really know how to put someone under."

FIC In the Present: Catching Up (Alexander Skarsgard/Luke Evans)(NC-17)
In the Present: Catching Up
Universe: Any Time, Any Place
Authors: jennandanica and sally_simpson76
Pairing: Alexander Skarsgard/Luke Evans
Rating: NC-17
Summary: In 1994, a twenty-year-old Alex meets a fourteen-year-old Luke in the small town of Aberbargoed, Wales. In this chapter, after reconnecting -- 15 years later -- Luke shows Alex what he's missed.
Warnings: none - however, the first two parts contained warnings for 'consensual' (emotionally if not legally) underage (14/20) and fudging of ages (6 years instead of a rl!3)
Disclaimer: This is fiction. Totally make-believe. Fantasy. A figment of our overactive imaginations.

Feedback: Absolutely welcomed and adored.
"And now that you're in movies, which do you like better?" Alex asks, watching Luke's face. Thinking that he could never get tired of looking at him.
"I don't know," Luke answers truthfully with a slight shrug of his shoulders. "I haven't been doing this long enough." He thinks about it for another second. "A lot of what I like is getting to do something so different from what I've been doing, but if you told me I wouldn't be on stage or get to sing again, I don't know." He laughs. "Ask me again in a couple of years."

since we're on the subject of greatest hits
After the utter flop that was Mortal Instruments at the box office and Clare Claire's said author's flounce regarding the matter
It's coming back.
ABC has ordered a 13-episode series entitled "Shadowhunters."
So far I'm not seeing anything about Clare's input despite this being rumored since last October / November. It's possible she doesn't have a lot of control over it, or is simply waiting to see how it turns out. Or possibly that it's buried beneath the giant wall o' text that makes up her Tumblr.

FIC Arriving for Heineken (Sam Worthington/Ryan Kwanten)(NC-17)
Arriving for Heineken
Universe: A Breath of Home
Authors: jennandanica and sally_simpson76
Pairing: Sam Worthington/Ryan Kwanten
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Sam and Ryan meet at the San Diego Comic Con and hot sex ensues. In this chapter, Sam and Ryan get together for a mutual project.
Warnings: none
Disclaimer: This is fiction. Totally make-believe. Fantasy. A figment of our overactive imaginations.
Notes: For anyone familiar with the RPG Citadel, this is NOT backstory for our pups in the game. In Citadel, Sam is played as the actor and Ryan is played AU as a songwriter. And then a little birdie told us our boys were going to be at SDCC at the same time in real life and we couldn't pass up the opportunity to see what would happen in another world, with the boys both as their actor selves.
Feedback: Absolutely welcomed and adored.

"Nah, I came straight from the airport. My luggage is... over there, somewhere," Ryan answers, relaxing back against the vinyl. Jim seems pretty loaded already and no one else is sitting with them just at the moment... He shoots Sam a smile, his eyes sparkling. Aside from that first hug, they haven't been able to touch each other yet. But damn, it simply feels so fucking good just to be with his lover again, sitting across from Sam and watching him grin, listening to that sexy full-throated laugh which always gets him going. "How's your room? A good size?"
"Yeah, and you're next to me," Sam says, keeping his voice low, he thinks. "Connecting doors," he adds, eyes sparkling, certain no one's paying attention to them anyway.

I can't think ahead right now
Life update: We're moving. It'll be my first move as an adult, second as someone in double digits.
This house is huge. My new home is separated into a house area and two apartments and I'll be in one of the apartments. I've already gotten rid of 90% of my clothes due to closet restrictions. I'll only be able to bring a few boxes of books.
I was trying to get rid of unwanted action figures by selling them, but Canada Post's shipping is so weird I was actually losing money. The only one I made a profit on? The arm broke off as I lifted it to pack. It was Jim Lee designed, so I blame him.
I want to just throw everything I don't want in the garbage. All the comicbooks, all the toys, all the knickknacks. Right into the trash. Since there's no Sims option to delete them to get money back. Somehow the fact I spent money on that stuff is why I'm not supposed to just trash them/give them away to a thrift store. Oh well. I hope the thrift store enjoys a lot of obscure action figures.
It's pretty obvious this whole move is stressing me. The last one, when I was a teenager, I was so freaked out they shipped me out of the province until it was over. I can't even think of the future right now because it's too different.
I've been obsessing over Transformers, which helps. There's a lot of canons and material to go through and the fandom is pretty lively. I've met some nice people already in it. I notice that whenever something is stressing me I suddenly find a new fandom or hobby. Weird.
Uh, my fic exchange (Once Upon a Fic) is going well. Quiet on the homefront. I was assigned someone with wonderful prompts whose story came easily.
A problem right now with the anxiety levels is that I can't seem to think far enough ahead in the future to plot a long story. I like writing long stories. But right now it's like grasping at butterflies. Hard, and when I catch one, it's crushed beyond use.
I had two I was really enjoying when I started - a big bang Great Mouse Detective/Rescuers fic with a Mouse Marple that I could only manage a start and a Star Trek fic about the movie where unicorn dog miraculously lives and what happens next.
I love unicorn dog.
Someone said something nice about my worldbuilding the other day and I said: 'Worldbuilding is fun. I just start lying and then I make it into something'
