Hands of fire and ice

xansLast night I had the most wonderful idea when I decided to make a curry and then mix it with spaghetti noodles. Noodle curry is delicious! Also, the house still smells of my cooking even a day later. Maybe if I did the dishes this would not be so. I'm sort of resistant to doing the dishes, however, because while there is a small pile growing, it's kind of fun to let it get big, do it, and guilt my flatmate into doing the next couple of lots. He always thanks me when I do the whole lot when I don't have to. I do them partially because, hey, need clean dishes thanks (just rinsing and reusing is a bad habit of mine) and also I've been relegated to dishwashing (or un/loading the dishwasher) as one of my chores for, like, a decade. It's kinda in me to do dishes when they gotta be done.
Friend of mine posted a link to this gender guesser that analyzes a sample of writing and guesses the gender of the author. I don't think it's very accurate. Or, apparently, writing like a female is something to be ashamed of, or something. I don't know. Of the many various samplings of my writing (essay, original fic, fanfic, and random journal entries--not memes), the guesser had most my writing as predominantly male. I find this amusing more than anything, but I also am completely confused as to the method to derive the potential gender of the writer. I wouldn't be surprised if it's constantly mistaken.
After the links I posted before, I've gone and found more fic, because I am a total nerd. :D Also, reading an Atlantis version of Beauty and the Beast reminded me of a Harry Potter one I read, many years ago. Naturally, I could not rest until I found it again, and thankfully a search in![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
remusxsirius (oh, how long it's been since I was a member there) lead to some linkage and a title. It's Once in Eternal Springtime Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, & Part 4.
The Road to Nevada -Me and my John/Rodney AUs. John was a fighter pilot in WWI, and now it's heading into WWII, when he goes to work for Rodney McKay, and they end up on the run from Nazis and space vampires and G-men... Really quite good, and the bit parts of other characters are very well done.
The Amazing Quest of John Sheppard -A very rich John Sheppard suffers great boredom, until he makes a bet with a doctor that he can't go a year living and working like a normal person, not touching his inheritance for personal use. In the process he meets (and helps) many people, and falls in love with one Rodney McKay, which may be a problem when it comes time for the year to end...
Bluffing -John/Rodney. Of course.
Dent sang, "McKay and Sheppard, sitting in a tree. Hey, would you have to change your names to McShep?" He laughed.
"I am not a value meal," John said, grousing as he switched out one card for Jackson.
"Oh, no. You are premium cut." Ford grinned.
"That's right. And none of you boys will ever get a taste of me."
Safety Dance -Summary: Carson joins the team in an off-world mission to find out why the people of Terro live such long, healthy lives. While there, he gives medical attention to a pregnant woman whose husband is suspicious of his alien motives. John has to intervene by pretending Carson belongs to him.
Fin.
