DARLA: Who is he?
MAID: Who, that one?
DARLA: Yes. - He’s magnificent.
MAID: Oh, yeah, God’s gift, alright.
DARLA: Really? I’ve never known God to be so generous.
MAID: Oh, his lies sound pretty when the stars are out. - But he forgets every promise he’s made when the sun comes up again.
DARLA: That wouldn’t really be a problem for me actually.

Anya: So, what kind of place are you looking for?
Spike: I don't know. Maybe a crypt. Some place, you know, dark and dank. But not as dark and dank as this.
Anya: It's pretty depressing, isn't it?
Spike: I've known corpses with a fresher smell. In fact, I've been one.

Admin: Poll: Challenge tags

Background: Dreamwidth has a 1500-tag limit, and [community profile] fan_flashworks is constantly bumping up against it. So we have an ongoing tag management project to try to gain ourselves some elbow room. You might have seen our periodic posts about merging old single-use fandom tags. Unfortunately, we are coming to the end of the easily-merged fandom tags, and so need to find another way to reduce our tag use.

Today's topic: We mods have been talking about the challenge tags (c: amnesty, c: science, etc.) These tags label an entry as responding to a particular prompt (or being part of an amnesty round).

We're not sure if anyone's actually using these! So we wanted to check in with you all before deciding between A) removing them entirely, or B) leaving only the ones from the last 12 months (and only tagging amnesty posts with the amnesty tag). Option A) would make our mod lives easier, but if they are serving a purpose for some of you, we definitely want to take that into account when making our decision. :-)

If we remove the challenge tags, we will change the standard subject-line format for all rounds to "[challenge]: [fandom]: [medium]: [title]", ie, the same as the current format for amnesty rounds. Community members are welcome to go back and add the challenge to the subject lines of previous entries, too (though we know that for some of you, that would be a Herculean task!).

Please take a moment to vote in this poll.

Poll #33347 Challenge tags
Open to: Registered Users, detailed results viewable to: Just the Poll Creator, participants: 28

How do you use the challenge tags here?

I don't use them.
17 (60.7%)

I use them to find new-to-me fanworks for a specific prompt.
3 (10.7%)

I use them to filter out fanworks that don’t interest me.
0 (0.0%)

I use them to find specific fanworks on the community that are already familiar to me.
1 (3.6%)

I use them (in addition to my maker tag) to find my own fanworks.
6 (21.4%)

I use them some other way. (Please elaborate in the comments.)
4 (14.3%)

So that's what those tags are! I never knew!
1 (3.6%)

Challenge 485: Face

Our new challenge is:

FACE



As always, you can interpret the prompt literally or figuratively, in whatever way works for you.

Each work created for this challenge should be posted as a new entry to the comm. Posting starts now and continues up until the challenge ends at 4pm Pacific Time on Sunday, July 20th. No sign-up required.

Mods will tag your work with fandom and challenge. When you've posted entries to three consecutive challenges, you will earn a name tag, and we'll go back and tag all your previous entries with your name.

All kinds of fanworks in all fandoms are welcome. Please have a look at our guidelines before you play. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to contact a mod. And if you have any suggestions for future challenges, you can leave them in the comments of this post.

Also, keep an eye out for the next [community profile] ffw_social post, which will go up in the next couple of days. If you haven't joined the [community profile] ffw_social comm, it's never too late to come and check it out. (Posts are locked, which means you have to join to see them.)

Original Fiction: The Science Behind Shame

Prompt: 484. Science
Word count: 449
Rating: M
Summary: Cameron's therapist says it's normal, it's not her fault. Cameron's mind says she always had a choice.
Warnings: A/B/O, past child sexual abuse, mentioned sexual content, incest.
Note: I came across the term "arousal non-concordence", made the most basic research, and it seems to fit a couple of characters of mine. Since I've been working in writing about this one again, she's the chosen one to suffer.
I'm basically a high school dropout, I apologise for inaccuracies – you can blame them on the nature of omegaverse.

Filk: Star Trek TOS: HR Violations on the USS Enterprise by indeedcaptain

Fandom: Star Trek TOS
Pairings/Characters: Kirk/Spock
Rating: G
Length: 1 min 41 sec
Creator Links: [archiveofourown.org profile] indeedcaptain
Theme: Working together, outsider POV

Summary: the flagship may not be all it's cracked up to be

Reccer's Notes: Have you ever wondered what it's like to work with a commanding officer who has zero judgment when it comes to the captain and who does shit like almost kill him while under the influence of Vulcan mating hormones? Or how about working under a captain who has zero judgment when it comes to his first, and is always doing shit like risking his life and the ship to save his first's life? This short song captures what that must be like. It's the little things like trying to get your damn performance review submitted to Starfleet.

I'm not super into filk, but this one is well-written, with fun rhymes and nice progression from beginning to end. It'll put a smile on your face.

Let Me Introduce Myself

These last few years it seems all this astrology and, as the kids say, "woo-woo", have become ever more popular. People seem to be practicing more and more. That's cool so long as people don't turn their backs on science and reason.

( Do you really wanna know more about me...? )

Currently, I'm focusing on walking The Red Road, delving back into the occult, green magick, and my own mix of Indigenous spirituality and Satanism. [community profile] thefreaksclub Sibling Community [community profile] the_magick_circle is where I talk about that. I also help run a few others.

[community profile] ethical_society_of_satan which is about society, ethics, philosophy, humanism, non-theological satanism, and other such related things.
[community profile] veg_life which is about vegetarian and vegan lifestyles, animal rights, the environment, and all that.
[community profile] first_nations_freaks for all Native American news, culture, discussions, and whatnot.
[community profile] openhearts_openminds ...polytheism? Maybe! Polyamory? Definitely. All about your less commonly discussed relationship types and other topics relating to relationships.

Hello

Name: Regis

Age: 46

I mostly post about: I am Bipolar. So, it varies. My mood, life and fandoms seem to be the main topics of conversation. Plus, my homosexuality is on topic so my post can get to be adults only. Since it's FRIENDS ONLY there are no warnings.

My hobbies are: making icons, video games, my movie collection. (PHYSICAL MEDIA RULES!)

My fandoms are: Doctor Who, various yaoi anime, Friday the 13th and other horror movies, mystery TV shows like Perry Mason and Columbo. I am also big on the MCU AND DCU.

I'm looking to meet people who: Other gay men and allies. I do not have much a support system at home. So being bipolar I tend to need someone to listen. Even if they do not comment. Also, if I get to be too much, just skip the post. LOL!

My posting schedule tends to be: daily/weekly/monthly/sporadic/etc I try to get at least 3 posts a week in unless we didn't pay the internet bill.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: Homophobes, racists, MAGA and other Trump supporters.

Before adding me, you should know: I can be a whiner from time to time. It's my way of getting my feeling out. If that isn't for you, I understand.
