Master List of Elizabeth Culmer's Fiction
---------------------------------------------

FANFICTION:

General Disclaimer: These stories are based on characters and situations created and owned by other people and corporations. I make no money from this borrowing of intellectual property, and intend no copyright or trademark infringement.

Organization: This list is organized primarily by fandom; within each fandom, it's arranged first by associated story cycles and then by writing date. Word counts and writing dates are approximations.

Content/Warning Policy: 1) I am not consistent about warnings! I use them when I remember, for a few relatively broad categories of potentially problematic content, but if something is off-page, non-explicit, or generally backgrounded, I probably won't think to note it in the metadata. Read at your own risk! 2) The things I try to warn for are explicit sex, rape, murder, torture, cannibalism, incest, depression/suicide, familial dysfunction, and occasionally also societal dysfunction (aka dystopia). Sometimes I just slap a general content warning on all my fic for a given fandom and don't label each individual fic. I also don't generally warn for violence, unless the violence in a fic is dramatically out-of-step with the violence in its source canon. 3) I don't use any content rating system unless I'm posting to a site or community that requires or encourages ratings, because I find movie-style ratings counter-intuitive when applied to written fiction, and not particularly useful for anything other than denoting the presence of explicit sex, which I already note in the metadata.

Quality Rating System: I've marked my favorite stories with asterisks, on a scale of 1 to 4. The more asterisks, the more I like the story. This doesn't necessarily mean that stories without asterisks are bad, just that I don't like them as much. Also, I am not claiming to be an arbiter of taste; you may love stories I dislike, and vice versa. I am just providing a heads-up about the ones that I think are best written and/or most interesting.

Where To Read: What I post on my journal tends to be the equivalent of a beta draft. If I have cross-posted a story literally anywhere else (except Tumblr; fic content there is just a mirror of fic content here), read the version that isn't on my journal. Versions on AO3 are definitive. If there is no AO3 version, read the ff.net version. If there is no ff.net version, read the FictionAlley version (only applicable for HP fic). Failing that, read the journal version, because that's the only one there is.

1. Huh, haven't posted for a while. I just haven't felt very interesting, I guess. Also, I haven't written anything for several days, boo hiss. My sleep schedule got weird again, and I am in this mental place where I am trying to force myself to write my Yuletide story -- I have it outlined and everything! -- but my brain is refusing to turn outline into actual story and I can't seem to get at any of my other stories in the meantime either. It is extremely annoying.

2. I went to see Rise of the Guardians on Thursday, mostly just because (...okay, because I'd seen some posts on Tumblr and then read all the fic on AO3 and a bunch on ff.net too, which, argh, ff.net why are you such a pit of CRUD???), and it was... well, far from the deepest movie ever, and really could have used another female magical character (and apparently in the books it's loosely based on, the Tooth Fairy is Southeast Asian, which would have been nice if they'd kept it instead of making her white-ish, grrr), and I am of the opinion that the ending would have worked better if they'd, I dunno, talked about how fear is a necessary thing (like pain) because it teaches you stuff, instead of going for a Wheel of Morality voiceover that doesn't even make sense, but whatever, it was adorable. Also the animation quality was quite good.

I saw it in good old 2D, of course. This is because I wear glasses and I flat-out refuse to try putting 3D glasses over my glasses. I cannot even get plain old binoculars, microscopes, and telescopes to work right for me most of the time (because of my shocking inability to, you know, put my eye to the viewpiece, because surprise surprise, there is a pane of polycarbonate in the way!) and I am not going to pay through the nose for an "enhancement" that A) I don't need in the first place (imagination can convert 2D to 3D quite well on its own, thankyouverymuch) and B) almost certainly won't work for me anyway.

3. In light of this latest Homestuck update, I think it is now canon that in terms of personality match, Rose and Dave got sent to the wrong ectoparent... though I guess in terms of specific areas of interest, Roxy still matches up slightly better with Rose. (The wizard thing, you know.) Actually, as we get to know the alpha!kids better, it is really fun to see how Rose and Dave are sort of like a mix-and-match of character traits from both Roxy and Dirk (and vice versa, I guess), instead of any of them being exact recapitulations of their ecto-relatives. And that without even adding in environmental factors, because it is obvious that despite starting from the same inborn template, Roxy is not Mom, just as Dirk is not Bro... and now I really, really wish we'd gotten to see even a little bit more of Alpha!Dave and Alpha!Rose to be able to do a more informed compare and contrast of those iterations with their beta!session selves.

...

Wow, descriptions of Homestuck must sound like complete gibberish if you haven't read the comic.

(I think I am less fixated on finding similarities and differences between Jane, John, Jade, and Jake than between the various Striders and Lalondes because, since the Prospit dreamers were grandparent-and-grandchild opposite-sex pairs (rather than parent-and-child same-sex pairs), and also all the grandparents have been dead by the time we meet the active player characters, there has been less of a tendency in fandom to assume that the players were trying to emulate their guardians and/or actively rebelling against them. They have always been more their own people and less reflections of their guardians.)
