I'm craving John and Sherlock casefic. And it's interesting that I woke up this morning back in my casefic DANMARI story - so maybe I'm ready to tackle that again - the premise is Japanese themed (referring to what Sherlock was up to in his 'gap year' in Tokyo) but after the disaster in March, I was too depressed to write anything dark (as that fic will go)

I was enjoying a fic with John and Sherlock - epic length, but there's too much sex. *sigh* Normally I would not complain, but the story has been interesting, up to this point, now it's lagging, (one characters name is a dead giveaway - its the villain in the RJD movie but the story setting is Sherlock BBC) and with S and J hopping into bed in chapter 2 there's only so many times you can have Life Affirming Sex And Tearful Goodbyes until it looses it's um ... poignancy? Is that the word? Maybe we can just say impact.

But yes, will be on the lookout for casefic, if you have any recs, does not have to be slashy. Or humourous fics like the Road Trip series - might have to do a comedy rec list, but it will be short!

Martin's comedy film Swinging With The Finkles is getting panned, but they do say he is good. It's difficult to make a comedy that works, and one reviewer said, British Sex Comedies don't have the impact they used to because everything is overwhelmingly sexualized these days so what was once shocking and/or naughty is now commonplace - I wasn't aware society is more sexualized than it's ever been ... but maybe it creeps up on you?

Second to last day of school, after getting kids on bus it's taking stuff to P.O. At some point need groceries, but in warmer weather, not certain what to make for dinners (gluten free) any ideas?

Rice based salads always work for me. Feel free to check out my food tag and ask me for specific recipes - a lot of the ones I've cooked are gluten free by choice.

Re: The RDJ movie villain name - I had wondered if that was coincidence, red herring, or really obvious foreshadowing.

It's interesting that you're talking about a craving for casefic, and the next entry in my f-list is a new gen casefic posted by [livejournal.com profile] verityburns. Her other works have been long shippy epics, so I'm pretty excited to read this one.

I seem to prefer my Sherlock fics to be case studies as well, over my normal preference for hardcore sex :) Not to say I don't read Sherlock sex, cause do, but I find it is the stories that are about really great cases that grab my interest!

And I love the comedy fics too. The Good Omens crossover with Sherlock, John and Sarah being ducks is a great read and I thank you again for giving that rec!!!
