Humor recs :: LJ ego poll

Fandom's a funny place today.

First, ntamara posted "A Sordid and Sorry Tale of Betrayal and Duct Tape" (PG-13). The request was for Fawkes/Dudley(!), and ntamara certainly managed that in this hilariously demented Dudley-goes-to-Hogwarts fic. Slut!Fawkes is a stroke of genius, and Dudley absolutely slayed me -- so perfectly horrid.

Then amanuensis1 posted her Drabble Night stuff [ADULT], and the last one, "Anything you can do, I can do better" (Ron/Harry), literally made me shriek with laughter. Yes, it was very undignified. But well worth it.

Also: Pirate Monkeys Inc. This is the artist who did the "House Sparklypoo" comic.

I've been wanting to do this for a while. It's anonymous to everyone but me, and I promise I won't tell who said what.

The 'friends debt' question was a bit tricky. I don't, technically, like to be in 'friends debt,' but not for the ego/appearances reason which (I think) is implied. I feel shy about revealing stuff about myself to people who don't reciprocate, so I prefer mutual friending and would eventually unfriend someone who didn't friend me back. Conversely, I'd feel awkward being friended by someone I didn't care to friend back. But I prefer a small and stable friends list so it's not much of a problem in practice.
