Profile

Welcome! Please take a moment to scan the following information (which covers content, ratings, and ownership):


This journal was originally created to mirror my old LiveJournal page (lupinity87), but since the great Crossposting Scandal Of 2010, I have decided to leave LiveJournal and move to Dreamwidth exclusively. The main fandoms that I'm currently active in and post on here are Spinal Tap, Metalocalypse, Blackadder and Randall & Hopkirk (Deceased) although there is some Labyrinth fiction to be found here too.

For those looking for a specific fandom, or who want to browse everything uploaded here, I've compiled every story into an easy-to-navigate list which can be found here.


Content
Within this journal, there are some stories that contain 'slash', or same-sex pairings. Any story that contains this will have a warning in the summary, so if it's not your cup of tea, don't read it! I've tried to make it possible to search for your tastes by using tags for ratings and slash - where there are many short stories within one entry, I will have tagged it for all of the tags which apply to all stories in the entry. Also, I'm aware that people define 'slash' slightly differently - some as any romantic/sexual tension between characters, and some as nothing less than a fully-fledged relationship. As such, any stories that might be classed as having slash content by some, but not having slash (perhaps just strong friendship) by others will have tags indicating both slash and no slash - as sometimes, the content of a story depends on the reader!

I do not have any 'RPF' (or 'real person fiction') in this journal or any public location online, out of personal respect to those involved. If you know of anything in this category that I've written and you're looking for it, your best bet is to email me or send me a private message, and I'll point you in the right direction.


Ratings
As I'm english, I use my native rating system for stories, which I think is fairly simple to understand. For those unfamiliar with it, please check the following guide:

U - Universal, suitable for all

PG - Parental discretion recommended for young audiences
(May contain very mild language/violence, very mild references to adult situations or drug use)

12 - Unsuitable for audiences younger than 12
(May contain mild language/violence, mild references to adult situations or drug use)

15 - Unsuitable for audiences younger than 15
(May contain stronger language/violence, strong references to or very mild descriptions of adult situations or drug use)

18 - Unsuitable for audiences younger than 18
(May contain graphic language/violence, graphic descriptions of adult situations or drug use)

For more specific information on why a story is rated as it is, please check the warnings in the summary. Overall, please be sensible - if I rate a story as '18', then I will have done this for a good reason.
