Firsts!

♦ wook77 popped my cherry last Saturday! *laughs* My fandom meet up cherry that is! She's the first fandom person I've ever met in RL and meeting her has put my mind at ease about meeting fandom people in RL. She's quite lovely and I had a ton of fun! We had rootbeer floats, milkshakes and fries while discussing everything under the sun and roaming the mall. We must do it again *nods* :D

♦ weasleywench has generously made a PDF version of Carpe Draconis! Now this was my first novel length fic and it was one of the things that convinced me I could write my own OC novel someday. And although this was started in November of '04, meaning not even a mention of the sixth book (let alone the last) and is littered with a slew of (now) questionable word choices and literary trope, I am still very much in love with it. *laughs* I wrote this story when I was still enchanted by the limitless possibility that fandom afforded me. Hee! I was also an impressionable twenty two year old at the time. *snorts* Hence I bring you the Ice Prince of Slytherin also known as the Slytherin Sex God (remember those days?! *laughs*), oblivious but earnest & brave! Harry, mentor! Snape, scheming! Lucius, loving mom! Narcissa, and manipulative but well-intentioned! Dumbledore. Did I mention sword fights? And a fully restored Voldemort after everyone's arse? *laughs* Click the link below if you want a copy of it. :)

Cool! Thank you for sharing this beautiful copy of your story!

[aoifene.livejournal.com]

You're quite welcome! :D Hope you enjoy!

It's still in my top ten favourite h/d stories. I remember following it way before I came to LJ and I once lost the link for it. *dies*

And now I probably realize that I never commented on it back then. *meep*

The cover is just awesome and so was the story. I love that it does contains some of the wonderful things from the past when we were all speculating.

*blushes* I'm glad you enjoyed it that much! It still amazes me whenever people tell me that they've read this little story of mine. :)

*laughs* Remember the possibilities with the open canon? War fic was so rampant and Draco was fair game. Those were the days! :)

Yayyyyy! I'm so excited about meeting you in person so soon after your "first-time." XD

[aoifene.livejournal.com]

You will be my second person to meet in RL! :D I am so excited!

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Wook is much fun, indeed. :D

Aren't you going to the show? It's fun to watch with an entire audience of devoted fans. *nods*

[aoifene.livejournal.com]

She really is!


Oh yes, I just have two extra tickets. It will be so much fun! :)

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Can't wait to see you! *flails*

[bite-me-luv.livejournal.com]

Oh, please pass my heartfelt thanks to weasleywench!

She saves me some dreadful c&p work I kept putting off. I have 14 chapters saved in Word - which says "81 pages", just so you know! *giggles* Now I'll gladly take that shiny PDF :)

[aoifene.livejournal.com]

I definitely will! Hope you enjoy the story! :)

[bite-me-luv.livejournal.com]

I will enjoy a re-read soon! I loved it the first time, therefore I started to save for my personal collection :)

[lisbet.livejournal.com]

Awesome, thanks for the PDF! I've always loved this, and I'm thrilled to have a copy now:)

[aoifene.livejournal.com]

Aww Glad you enjoy the story! :D It's always been one of my favourite universes to write in!
