Lupinity's Fiction

Five and a half years.

...Five and a half years!

( Well. Where to start? )

So, what am I even trying to say? Basically, I'm still alive, and I have stories to finish and post, and if I announce on here that I have stories to finish and post then it'll give me a sense of accountability and motivation to just get on with it.

I think.

When I set up this Dreamwidth account, I made no secret of the fact that my plan was to run it alongside my LiveJournal. However, with recent happenings at LiveJournal, that plan has changed - I will now be leaving LJ and will use Dreamwidth exclusively. As I type this, the LJ staff still haven't resolved The Situation or given any indication of whether they're going to or not. Even so, even if it is resolved I won't be staying there - the current issue is just one bad decision in a long line of many, which is a shame as it used to be a brilliant site.

Oh well... "The only constant is change," and all that.

Anyway, if anyone here would like to add me to their reading lists (as this looks likely to be my home for a long time!), go for it! That goes for old LJ friends and new people alike - I know that there is very much a mass exodus at the moment, so I'm all for sticking together in these troubled times!

Also, I've set up a community here - spinaltapfanfic. Anyone is very welcome to join, and fiction is particularly welcome there as Spinal Tap has such a small fandom that stories are almost impossible to find! Having said that, non-fiction discussions related to Spinal Tap are equally welcome.

As a newbie to Dreamwidth, I feel that I should make an introduction post! I'm Loopy (as a nickname and as an adjective), known across the internet as Lupinity87, and I write... sometimes. I'm a bit of a nerd for old british tv programmes (which may become more apparent in the future). I also tend to write a lot of Spinal Tap fanfiction - I am, as far as I'm aware, the most prolific author of Spinal Tap fic, which says less about my writing skills and more about how tiny the fandom is! On that note, I tend to be into a lot of smaller fandoms - and if there's no fanfiction to be found for something, I'll often have a go myself (and post it if it gets finished).

I use my local UK rating system for fiction as opposed to the US one (honestly, I've never worked out the difference between 'NC-17' and 'R'), but there's a guide in my profile if anyone's unfamiliar with it. I think it's probably quite easy to pick up. There is also general information there about content, tags, and copyrights, so it's well worth checking out.

I also have a LiveJournal page (lupinity87) and a fanfiction website (lupinity87.weebly.com), if you'd prefer not to read here. I've just uploaded every story from my LiveJournal to here, so anything posted before this entry, was written before I set up this account (although I've dated the entries to keep the same dates as the original uploads on LJ). Also, if you have either a LJ or DW account and would like to add me, go ahead! I'm very friendly. On that note, comments make me very happy, so feel free to leave a note if you liked (or even if you didn't like) something I wrote - if I've set this up as I meant to, anonymous comments from people without accounts are very welcome.

Finally, pull up a seat and enjoy!

Title: Alive
Fandom: Metalocalypse
Rating: U
Genre: General, angst
Pairing: Nathan/Charles
Word Count: 1595
Warnings: Spoilers for Renovationklok
Author's Notes: My response to the season 3 premiere - I wrote a short story ages ago (link here) based on the season 2 finale, so I tried to follow that on while continuing the new canon (I'd recommend that you read that one before reading this). NB: Now that the series has officially given the correct spelling of CFO's surname as 'Offdensen', I'm going to go with that even though I've spelt it differently up until now!
Summary: Nathan had so many thoughts running through his head that he couldn't make any sense of the situation whatsoever.

I've been in the mood for writing but with no inspiration, so I've used quotes to get me going! It's fairly simple - I took five quotes from the 'random' page of quotationspage.com, and wrote five drabbles. Each is exactly 100 words long, which oddly enough I find more difficult than writing longer ones!

Most are slashy, but I wouldn't rate any of them as higher than PG. Oh, and I've included the quotes and who said them after each drabble.
