Grades are turned in and the semester's done, only one deadline looms in the near future, and I have three whole weeks to clean up the house for the subletters. I think I'm finally back among the living.

First things first: an [insanejournal.com profile] hp_beholder rec, the most beautiful fic I've read in a long time: Souvenirs and Lost Luggage, Petunia/OFC (pre-slash), Dudley/Piers (established), 5900 words, PG. In 2003, Petunia leaves Little Whinging for good. It is four years before she can talk about it. This is a lush, thoughtful, deeply felt fic about a woman reawakening to her own desires and rebuilding her life--essentially a very simple story, but extraordinarily powerful in the telling. It's stunning writing, vivid in its details and light in touch. Everyone, even a Dursley, has an allowance of love. Even if you don't usually read these characters--even if you don't usually read this fandom--please give this one a try.

The master list has been posted at [insanejournal.com profile] hp_beholder and reveals are on Sunday. Enjoy!

Second: [livejournal.com profile] lgbtq_recs. Is there enough interest to keep this going for another year? Anyone read/watched/listened to some LGBTQ-themed media they'd like to rec in June? I know we're starting a bit late, but I'd love to do this once more, if anyone else would.

Hello! Thank you! I might not be a big fan of this summer-ward turning of the seasons, but I do love tulips, so it seemed appropriate to switch my default over.

I could probably dig a few things up for posting in the first week. Yay! LGBTQ recs!

Hello, hello! :) Ooh, I haven't read HP in such a long time... perhaps I should give that a go this weekend.

YAY!!!! I will be around for at least the first half of July and probably most of August! (So- I should figure out a couple of places for food times? ;D Also I was reminded that HP7 is coming out mid-July, which seems like serendipitous timing.)
