reenka: (because r/s is AWESOME.)

Man, I was browsing R/S writers' journals (which... btw, don't contain a lot of R/S these days :O!!) and I found this, which is a screencap with the titles of a bunch of R/S fics... brilliant titles, gorgeous titles, titles that I'd nearly chew my finger off to come up with myself, and....

Okay, this just started me thinking about title-naming, obviously. I've never been one of those people who thought it was -hard-, 'cause I just come up with some quote from the story or try to sum it up in a cute/punny way or something, but I never do the longish 4-7 word titles that impress me so much *___* I was looking, and my titles never go over 4 words, and are usually 2 or 3 at most! Which may make them snappy, but also boring :( Ahhh, titling is an art all in itself.
    I mean, seriously. 'Five Ways to Open Your Arms' or 'Go Forth to Meet the Stranger' or 'Fear in a Handful of Dust' or 'Map of Your Head' or just 'Quixotic'... ahh :(( *envy!*

...This is really the sort of thing that makes me want to write. There should be a challenge/prompt-fest just to steal people's titles and remix them :P I COVETTTTT, PRECIOUSSSSS :((

However, all this R/S-hunting also makes me meepy 'cause the peeps are not as prolific as H/D by a long-shot, and most of it's small angsty little vignettes or so-fluffy-it's-somewhat-bland MWPP stuff :( :( WHO SHOULD I BE READING? :( I mean, I don't mind angst, I just wish it were longer, IC MWPP-era angst with some fluff in it :( And also smut. (And I'd also love cute fluffy smutty stuff that isn't too fluffy... and by 'too fluffy' I mean: 'raises any serious issues whatsoever'.) IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK? :(

EDIT - Man. If I ever forget how hot Draco is, I just have to look at this. o_0 SERIOUSLY. *____* Though [livejournal.com profile] kasche's latest R/S makes me even happier. ♥. *____* Alsoooo... [livejournal.com profile] calyxess' H/D fanart makes me happy :> Cute & sorta old-school, yeay :D
    PS: GO ON AND TELL IF ME IF THIS ISN'T A MUCH BETTER PANSY THAN THE MOVIE!CANON VERSION!!1 :O! (...even if that's not actually Pansy fanart... heh)

it's just that you think "pansy", you think "draco's girlfriend".

Well, a part of it's that-- I mean, if she's -blonde- and Draco's gf, it doesn't seem as... permanent? But that's silly of me.

Mostly it's that Ivy's Pansy & my Pansy started out blonde *pout* I've always written her blondish. She looks more prissy that way!

She never looks prissier than in the movies.

It was just -weird- 'cause I pictured her like this (http://lberghol.livejournal.com/297271.html) or like this (http://tetherhooks.livejournal.com/2651.html#cutid1). I dunno why I'm so attached to [livejournal.com profile] tetherhooks' Pansy, but I am ^^;;; Movie!Pansy looked prissy without being... having that little-angry-yappy-dog-with-a-floofy-bow feel which is what I get from canon. She looked more cool, which I guess applies to Lucius and Hermione and even Harry with his smooth hair...
