xifengI went into work yesterday, which once I conquered my natural aversion to working six days a week wasn't that bad. Also I've earned a reprieve, as I'll be in the office tomorrow instead of out of town. Huzzah! Mom's been slaving away at her own workplace, so last night we went to the Pasta Grill, which is near civilization but is in a business-and-restaurant plaza that I only visit about once a year, so I forgot where to turn and had to go back and get myself unlost. However, dinner was good. Mmmm, noodles and seafood with tomatoes and basil and olive oil. ♥♥♥
Also, I may have accidentally gone nuts in the bookstore and purchased some new stuff that, with a certain amount of finagling, I can convince myself that I really need. After all, I'd been drooling over Warriors of Medieval Japan for some time, and since I've been back on this Russian history kick it's only natural that I would need Gulag, and we're reading Crime and Punishment over to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
0bsessed_reader this month, and I already have a couple of Alison Weir's books on Tudor history so it would be horrid and wrong for me to not buy The Six Wives of Henry VIII, since it is the second in the sequence. And I totally was not going to buy the other two samurai books at all, but they were cheap and I couldn't have lived with myself if I hadn't grabbed them RIGHT THAT INSTANT.
No. No, I don't have any samurai issues. None at all.
When in Rome by Twiglet Queen. Aeneas meets Pallas, and hilarity ensues. It's a light-hearted, fun little story, and rolls merrily along; unlike most "humor" fics, it's actually funny, and not random crack!fic. All in all, it's a good, solid little piece.
What else has this author done? Her other work appears to be in HP fandom, and we all know my position on that. Visit her site, The Dork Side.
Follower by Gloria Mundi. I don't think Gloria Mundi has ever written a bad piece (at least, not judging from what's displayed online); here, we see Achilles and Patroclus, and talk of lovers and girls and conquest. Short and sad.
What else has this author done? Yeah yeah yeah yeah. Visit Imagin’d Glories and enjoy.
Immortal Night by Elandae. WARNING: SEXPORN. Odysseus and Diomedes have some downtime after they return from capturing Dolon and King Rhesus' horses. There's precious little dialogue, but this is a story about action, not words.
What else has this author done? She's done other Trojan War fic, but I don't know of any other work of hers.
