( You Know You Want It )

Mair doesn’t particular like the goblins, the people from his mother side, but they are the only family he has always known. Born from a rape his mother was subjected, she managed to escape and come back to her home, but then she discovered she was with a child. All her people told her to kill the baby, the bastard son of a fairy, but he was also her son, and she was the king’s sister, so her blood was enough to save him, almost. Many times goblins tried to kill Mair, once even his uncle, the king, but more or less he arrived to 23 years old unscathed but deeply alone. He is the spitting image of his father and so, where goblins are little, curved and with long horns, he is tall, lean, with a creamy complexion and two little wings he always hides. No one wants to be near him, other than his mother, and so he is not only alone, he also misses the human touch. And he hates his body, that is so different from what he is used to see around, and he hates sex, that he links to what happened to his mother.

When a turn of fate makes him the new king, Mair has to face many problem: first of all, everyone around him wants to kill him again, and second, has an healthy and young goblin, he is expected to have a sex slave to relieve him of his “needs”, and slaves are usually fairies. The one they brought to him is Zak, a music fairy that his now mute due to a bad wound. For any parameter Zak is a beautiful man, but for Mair he’s also a constant remember that he is not like the others. He is more like Zak.

There is a strange contraposition between Mair and Zak. It’s clear that Zak is stronger, not only in body but also in inner strength, but sometime I had the feeling that he didn’t want to fight back. It’s not clear if Zak was a warrior caught in battle, or if he was a slave even before, for sure at first he is scared by the situation but then maybe he realizes that Mair is not exactly the ugly and dangerous goblin king he was expecting. In that moment I had the clear idea that Zak chose to be with Mair, as a slave, not since he was forced but since he wanted.

The novel didn’t show us how Mair will manage to be the king of a bunch of people that want to kill him, but I don’t think it will be easy. Mair, truth be told, has not the streak to be a leader, he is too gentle and troubled. He has too inner fears, true they are more psychological than real, but in any case I think he is not even interested in being a king. Maybe the relationship with Zak will help him, being the master even of only a man, it could be a first step to strengthen him to a bigger task.

The master slave relationship is only hinted, also since Mair as I said is not exactly a real master, and so also the sex is more “simple” and basic than in a BDSM relationship. Mair is too scared of sex to do something really wicked to Zak, and Zak, I think, is way more experienced than Mair, to be able to lead the younger man, at least in bed.

The Rainbow Awards: Third (and last!) Phase: http://elisa-rolle.livejournal.com/850354.html

Apparently tearing down my computer and reinstalling Windows and starting from scratch has NOT helped my computer whatsoever. In fact, now it is running even slower than it was before I wiped everything from it. It refuses to properly install my printer now, there's some kind of I/O device error on my DVD drive. I attempted to install the Safari browser for PC last night and after it took over an hour to attempt to install the thing I stopped it so that I could go to bed. I'm still having problems when I'm on the internet in both the Firefox and IE browsers. I'm beginning to think that wiping everything from my computer did not get rid of any virus, or perhaps any virus that I had was so badly infecting my computer that too much damage has been done that a reinstall doesn't help.

I found out the other day that my internet IP address has been blacklisted which is what prompted me to do this. I read up on how to get my IP address not on a blacklist and it said that in order to do that I had to get rid of all viruses, malware, open proxies, etc. from my computer. I ran four different virus/malware scanners on my computer and all of them said that there were no infections. Basically this blacklist on my IP address is recognizing me as a spammer, I found this out when I tried to post on the XFN forum and it refused to allow me to post because I've been blacklisted. I hope that this blacklist on my IP address doesn't prevent me from posting anywhere else otherwise I'm going to be completely blocked from interacting with my online friends. And I really hope that it doesn't effect me using email since that's the main way that I keep in constant contact with my family.

I'm thinking that I'm going to have to end up getting a brand new computer in order to fix this problem, and then, if I do that I'm staying away from sites that I suspect may have been the sites that got my computer infected (CareerBuilder, Facebook, XFU...). If only surfing the internet were actually safe to do, right?

I hate computers and they hate me more.

He can't stand the thought of leaving behind the friends he's made at twentysomethingtwinks.com -- and he won't be able to live with himself if he doesn't act on some of his favorite fantasies.

They've all wanted a taste of him for a long time now, and there's nothing to stop any of them from getting what they wished for. Aaron. Cody. Gabriel. Dylan. Brandon. Maddox. Ross. Thom. Skyler. And Jake. Ten men, ten ways to misbehave. It's going to be a night to remember.

We went to Healesville Sanctuary today. It was more or less a really good day. More, because it's the zoo and who doesn't love the zoo? Animals and playgrounds and plantlife, oh my. Less, because I was wracked with a brain splitting migraine, left my purse at the gate and could barely stand by the time we left. Less, because maybe Healesville (with its picturesque landscapes and plantlife, birds of prey talks, and dedicate zoo keeper talks on each animal... ISN'T structured around a two year old's attention span, even if mummy and daddy want to be quiet and listen).

All in all, a good day. I think it will be a lot better once James is older and can appreciate sitting quiet and watching large birds of prey swoop and dive, or the keeper talking about koalas and playtipii.

Also, on a day where my brain decides to cleave my head in two. Yeah, that'd be a good day.

Anyways, onto about the only peoples care about a zoo trip... PHOTOS!!

Author's note: Okay, so this is something that I threw up back in early September when my job was totally stressing me out and I needed to let my brain focus on something else in order to stay sane. It's not a particularly original concept (at all), but this fic thing ain't really my forte and I still had the finale on my mind at the time.

I didn't have anyone review it or anything -- I just kinda wanted to throw it out there. So if you see any glaring grammar/spelling stuff, you can let me know in the comments.

I wrote another part to this from Marshall's point of view, and if I have time I'll try to clean it up and post it as well. I didn't include it here because it is already way too long. If/when I do that, then the good folks here will have seen the entirety of my contribution to the world of fanfic!

Blood and Roses is a novella that I think will appeal to the most romantic readers. It’s fantasy, without doubt, but it’s not so clearly bounded by this genre. The world where Arjen, male whore, lives, is an Amsterdam lost in time; from some small details, the use of specific words, the absence of machines, the presence of carriages and other “old-fashioned” elements, all let you think that this is a fantasy world that takes inspiration from a not long ago past, maybe nineteen or eighteen century. Probably if not for the presence of a vampire, the novella could have been an historical romance, and even if there is the paranormal elements, truth be told, it tends to be more historical than other.

Maikel, the vampire, is like a lord among the other men. Again, there is a good reason for him to be a vampire, the author needed probably all the gothic feelings that derives from that fact, but other than that, he behaves more like an aristocrat than an otherworldly being. Him and also the other vampires in the novella, they live among the other people, worshipped and feared, but seldom loved. They are seen like a breed among the others, the lure to be a vampire, and the possibility to gain immortality with them, make this people favourite among the whores who all want to be the chosen one for the night.

All other than Arjen. But I don’t think that for him is really a question of moral or other, I think Arjen is a very proud man, with still a lot of dreams despite his job. He doesn’t want to be with a vampire probably since, if in the end all the legends weren’t true, it would be another disappointed in his life. Arjen has built a thick shell around himself, a shell that protects him from feelings and pains: he doesn’t feel when he is working, he doesn’t feel and so he doesn’t suffer. Having the chance to taste a bit of “paradise” with Maikel, and then being forced to be back to his everyday work as a whore, would be probably create an irreparable break in that shield.

At the beginning probably Arjen doesn’t love Maikel for who he is more than for who he represents. And so, truth be told, Arjen is not so much different from the other people. Instead I think that Maikel is open and loving from the first moment. He is clear in his desires even if he doesn’t speak them aloud. Maikel is probably as much romantic as Arjen, but he is more open to this side of him.

Blood and Roses is a retelling of the One Thousand and One Nights, with Maikel that night after night asks to Arjen to talk to him into sleep, delaying night after night the consummation of their agreement, till the moment I arrived to think that probably Maikel is not really interested in having sex with Arjen, sex is something he can have with everyone, what instead he has with Arjen is something special. And in the end, sex will cause them trouble, since it will level their relationship with all the previous one they had, letting Arjen doubt of Maikel’s words, and destroying Maikel’s image of Arjen. In a way, when Maikel sees Arjen, he doesn’t see a whore, he sees a man with a royal behaviour, he sees the simple things of life, the things he can’t no more appreciate. Being with Arjen, without sex with them, allows to Maikel to think that he isn’t different from all the other men.

Anyway, even when the sex arrives, it’s always almost ethereal, I liked very much the use of words of the author during that moment, she is able to convey completely the moment, and the eroticism, without being too explicit.

Got two proposals out, one to an editor, one to my agent (the latter the revision of the mystery), and am 3/4 of the way through another proposal for the same editor. Also went to the Cloisters for the first time in ages, which was lovely as always.

I'm trying to get caught up on HIMYM and, did this show always have a laugh track? I feel like it didn't. Which is pretty weird because I'm sure they didn't just randomly add one in season 5.

Mind. Blown.

Also that's probably a good sign that it's not as good this year, yes? :(

I wonder why I don't have an icon for this show.

We had leftovers for dinner! Yum. Why does this stuff always tastes better the day AFTER. :p

Will have some pie later.

Son is experiencing his first Black Friday in retail. Poor lad. They had him running around within fifteen minutes of clocking in. Someone paged him and was running around trying to find out WHO paged him. Apparently, they never said on the page where they needed him. *gigglesnort at retail epic!fail*

We had the car towed to the dealership from my brother's. At first, we were told the towing wasn't covered and our extended warranty had expired. WTH? Then we were told the towing is covered if the parts are covered. Well, since we believe the dealership screwed this up, they should pay for it. The dealership didn't look at the car today. *facepalm* They were overloaded with cars since yesterday was a holiday.

I'm seriously going to look into Mogi or Fidelis when all this is over. I'm not that impressed with Chrysler's service contracts.

I wrote a lot today! I'm almost done with Sin District Slayer. I may have another twothree chapters and that may cover it.

I even added a bit to a scene between Garrett and Azkadellia in a story that I keep changing my mind on. :\ He even kisses her.

Hugs and kisses to the flist. &hearts

I finally managed to get some mangoes that either the birds or bats haven't eaten! They're yummy too *mmmmmmmm*. Even though the crop isn't half as good as last year, I'll still be freezing some in the end. Mangoes for a whole year! *bounces* I still have some frozen from last year and am contemplating making chutney with them...because I have 4 glorious weeks off!!!!!!!

So maybe I'll catch up with the beta'ing I owe poor tygermama & sparrowritings. I feel so guilty ladies, that I haven't finished this. Life has just caught up with me the last few months :(

But right now I'm madly trying to finish my big bang fic - there's two days left of the week I'm supposed to post it in! Cross your fingers for me? *begs*

This year I am waaay too broke and disorganised to be sending cards :( But I love my flisters, so post a prompt and fandom I write and I'll write you something.
