Drabbles and annoyances and celebrations, oh my

First of all, happy International Women's Day!

Second, wtf's up with all the lists of OMGexpertise on little_details? Paging the mods, someone needs to put that comm on moderated for a day or two.

Third, yesterday. Okay, I fell asleep at 9.30 PM and slept until morning :P So instead, there are two drabbles today.

For alighiera, part of the fake-title challenge (though she didn't give me an actual title): Coldfire, shipboard, Gerald and Damien killing time.

( Novatlantis, Dead of Night, 350 words )

EDIT: Second version, canon-correct this time:
( Novatlantis, Dead of Night, 350 words )

For alice_montrose, part of the Vampire Celebration: Tanz der Vampire, Herbert, Alfred and stockings.

( The Dressing-room Dilemma, 150 words )

Drabbles and blatherings

Look! fyrie drew brilliant fanart for my Krolock and Lestat fic! Go and marvel and tell her how good she is!

And since I'm almost finished with the fake-title meme (and the two bits that are yet to be written will get their own post), here are the best bits from that and the blather-about-characters meme, the ones I want to put on my site sometime:

( The Dark River: Obi-Wan and Dooku )

( Von Krolock and Dracula )

( Sirius meta )

( Dream and Thessaly, from The Sandman )

In other news, I managed somehow to sign up for a multi-fandom Dracula essay for idol_reflection. Due May 3rd, and for source material I'll probably use Prince of Many Faces and Dracula: The Dark Prince for historical Vlad, Bram Stoker, Murnau's Nosferatu if I can get it (Herzog's if I can't), Dracula 2000 as an example of a BAD vampire movie, Van Helsing and The Historian. Anything else you think I should include in my ravings on why Dracula freaking rocks?
