H/D Erised Fic: Storm's Eye

Author: Anonymous Recipient: @jtimu Pairing(s): Draco Malfoy/Harry Potter Rating: Mature Word Count: ~12,500 Tags: Alchemist Draco Malfoy, Auror Harry Potter, Magical accidents, Necronomical botany, mortal peril, light angst, bit of anti-ministry sentiment, friends to lovers, getting together, Hurt/comfort, bed sharing, alchemy, magical lore, brief mild gore, Legilimency

Summary: Harry's surprised that Draco didn't have wards up preventing mortally wounded former school mates-turned-ghosted work fellows from bursting into his house. In Harry's addled mind, this seems like a great opening line to say to Draco's gobsmacked face. He doesn't get that far, though.

Metalocalypse starters

"They're trying to tell you that the guy got his face smashed into the hovercraft, that's what they're trying to tell you."

"I would rather have my brain scooped out with a melon-baller than to miss the opportunity to deliver the various cheese snacks to my beloved _____."

"We are here to make coffee metal. We will make everything metal. Blacker than the blackest black times infinity."

"This is, I believes, called food libraries."

"It's called a grocery store, ya douchebags! I'm sorry about douchebags. I got... got low blood sugar."

"Alright, here's the deal: we have to do our own shopping so we can make our own dinner like regular jack-offs do. Now you're all in charge of putting together one dish. AND DON'T JUST BUY BOOZE! That ain't food!"

"What do you mean, "booze ain't food?" I'd rather chop off my ding-dong than admit that!"

"You'd rather chop off your ding-dong than not drink?"

"2 cups of rice." [pours rice into measuring cup, then through the shopping cart] "Brutal."

"Okay hold on now, so you're telling me that you put these little guys in boiling water and they shrink, and they turn red, and they die? That is the most metal thing I ever heard in my whole life. High five!"

"Guess what, you are a GMILF. That is a grandmother that I would like to -"

"Lemme guess - not "heavy" enough, not "tuned low" enough, not "brutal" enough?"

"Oh, right. That dude that you headbutted? The guy was a Danish Prince. Can you believe that?"

"Friends, we're... we're not used to the whole apologizing thing. We're not professional apologizers. We're... musicians. So, we wrote a song for you, a new national anthem. We took the lyrics straight from your Finnish folklore book of necronomic spells."

"Oh, I hate Finland. I need a hundred beers. I need a hundred beers. Exactly... exactly one hundred. Thank you."

"Hey I ain't no therapist, but I hate your mustache."

"My video was banned from music television, cause you could see my junk... through my jumpsuit."

"Hey Dogface, why don't you go and... eat some dog food, and eat your own throw-up, 'cause you're a dog... face."

"That's what families is, peoples you hates."

Hey, did you know that Norway has the lowest murder rate in the whole world? The lowest in the world?

Wait a minute, you mean that the murder rate in Canada is higher than Norway? Oh my god this place is lame! Lame place!

The fact that my parents had sex in order to create me makes me want to be buried alive.

"I'd rather die than go to heaven."

"Well, uh, I will tell you this, that's a good problem to have. That's a problem you want to have. It's a good one."

“How do you value your what you contribute of to at the workforce and second part, at which can you most can’t the least?"

“Bleach is mostly water, and we’re mostly water. Therefore, we are bleach.”

"Candy, tastes like chicken if chicken was a candy."

“We’ll give you half……OF NOTHING!"

“Hey! Who peed my pants!” “I think you might be the culprit in this particular… mystery” “How the hell could I pee my pants when I’m standing right here!?”

"What's that burning smell? Did I leaves the lunchables in the microwaves again?"

"No, we're not-that's not even a repsonse to what I was saying. We're arguing two different things here."

"Don't say die SAY HAMBURGER TIME! Please say hamburger time when speaking to us."

The Laundry Roleplaying Game

The award-winning RPG of cosmic horror, tech-driven magic, and occult spycraft returns! Based on ‘The Laundry Files’ by Charles Stross.

Welcome to the Laundry! You’re one of the unlucky few standing between humanity and unspeakable - often unpronounceable - supernatural, alien, and interdimensional threats.

You’re a spy. Well, you are now, at least. Previously, you were someone who learned things humanity was not meant to know. Namely, that magic is real, it exists in the higher realms of mathematics, and it has some really messed up devotees. And if you know that much, then you’re not left with much of a choice — you work for the Laundry now. 

If you’re familiar with Charles Stross’ award-winning The Laundry Files series or the first edition of the award-winning Laundry RPG, you know all this already and can skip to looking at the books, the new award-winning game system, or just go ahead and pick a pledge level already. Just remember that everything here has won awards, ok? Lots of them.

If you are new to the Laundry, you are in for a treat – read on for the primer. You should also bear in mind the awards thing.

There are things out there, in the weirder reaches of space-time, where reality is an optional extra. Horrible things, sometimes with actual tentacles. Al-Hazred glimpsed them, John Dee summoned them, HP Lovecraft wrote about them, and Alan Turing mapped the paths from our universe to theirs. It turns out that mathematics really is magic, or at least that aspects of it describe, enable and power magic. And computing power supercharges it.

The right calculation can call up entities from other, older universes, or invoke their powers. Invisibility? Easy! Binding lesser demons to your will? Trivial! Opening up the way for the Great Old Ones to come through and eat our brains? Unfortunately, much too easy.

That’s where the Laundry comes in. It’s a branch of the British secret service tasked with preventing alien gods from wiping out all life on Earth, with a policy focus on the United Kingdom. You work for the Laundry. The hours are long, the pay is bad, and the bureaucracy is stifling, but unfortunately, you know too much to really have a choice in the matter.

There are some upsides – you get to play with all sorts of magically enhanced tech, from necronom-iPhones loaded with cutting-edge occult apps to basilisk guns that [REDACTED]. Plus, you’ve got a job for life, and possibly beyond (talk to Residual Human Resources to find out more).

You may even get to save the world. Just make sure you get a receipt.

Introducing the second edition of The Laundry Roleplaying Game — an exhilarating blend of covert action, investigation, and dark cosmic horror that thrusts you into the chaotic world of underfunded government employees battling to save the world from unspeakable threats.

Your daily grind includes myriad perilous tasks, from exorcising co-workers gone awry to thwarting ambitious computer students from triggering reality-bending catastrophes. Sneak into supercomputer servers, join SAS troops on dimension-hopping missions, halt outbreaks of blood-draining brain parasites, and prepare for the inevitable apocalypse of CASE NIGHTMARE GREEN.

The C7d6 System

This second edition of The Laundry Roleplaying Game employs the acclaimed C7d6 system, renowned for its versatility, speed, and flexibility.

To perform an action, roll a number of six-sided dice equal to your Attribute score plus any Training you have in the relevant field. So if you have Mind 3 and two levels of Training in the Occult Skill, you have a dice pool of 5d6. Roll the dice, and if any of them exceed the difficulty of the Task, congratulations — you’ve succeeded!

The difficulty may vary, but fear not! You have a plethora of Talents at your disposal, each designed to bolster your chances of success and turn the tides in your favour.

Small Scale to World Devouring

The game system is fast and accessible and ideal for when things get messy, the banishment rounds are flying, and creatures from another realm threaten to devour your office. The same rules apply whether you’re hacking into a computer, sneaking into an office block, or storming a building with a bunch of grizzled SAS troops.

Those rules work just as well when faced with mind-shattering horror and for higher-powered adventures when things start to get really strange in The Annihilation Score and beyond.

Who Do You Play?

Within the Laundry, there are countless departments filled with hundreds of overworked and underpaid employees — and you’re one of them. You might be an accountant, IT support, a driver, or something weirder, like a counterpossession exorcist, a computational demonologist, or one of the really odd people who dedicate their life to research and development. 

However, that’s just your day job. As part of your Active Duty, you’ll join other operatives and head out on a wide array of exciting (and deadly) missions.

What Do You Do?

There is no ‘typical’ when it comes to Laundry missions. You could be sent to the heart of London, Wolverhampton, or Milton Keynes. You may even be sent overseas, but you’ll have to be careful not to ruffle any feathers — the Black Chamber and the Thirteenth Directorate are quick to halt clandestine Laundry operations. While they might have the same job as you, they handle things very differently, and some refuse to believe that the Cold War is over. 

The world of the Laundry is under threat of incomprehensible cosmic horrors, and it’s up to you to save it.

Okay, so I normally wouldn't do this, but I thought it would be fun for you all to pick what oneshot I post this weekend over on my AO3. These are the only ones with official titles at the moment, and they will all be posted at some point, and no, you won't be getting a description of them, you get to go based on the titles which I hope will be fun.

my most recent post, the lawlight heathers au :] i started that one waaay back in september and have been agonizing over it ever since LMFAO whatever i'll finish it One Day. praise the sweetness also took a while, though it was just sitting in the drafts finished for most of that time since i was waiting for the 31st to post it. make it stick also took a bit from what i remember, maybe about the same amount of time as praise (couple weeks)??

12. How many WIP’s do you have in your docs for next year?

uhm.

this is what my wip ideas list google doc looks like rn =3=" OK BUT. in all fairness though some of these aren't really Fic Ideas I'm Going To Write but random musings of thoughts/minor character reflections that might eventually lead to fics (for a whole variety of fandoms, too). idk shit's messy i think messy sometimes sue me

as for fics i'm actually working on Right Now... i currently have three google docs tabs open. and at least one of those is Guaranteed to be finish in december, since it's for the secret santa. shrug

Artist Research; H.R Giger

H.R Giger was a Swiss artist best known for his airbrushed, biomechanical works. Art that crosses the line between flesh and machine, blending the two for a surrealist effect.

His interest in the female body is a recurring theme in his work, often depicting a mechanical take on the reproductive process.

(Todgerbãrmaschine I 1976, Todgerbãrmaschine II 1976.)

The female form is often highly sexualized and twisted into machine like beings in his work, reflecting a common societal view of women throughout history and even the current day battle for dominance between the masculine and feminine.

(Necronom IV.)

Said best by Roy P. Awbery in his Article on Giger;

"Giger's artwork was frequently controversial and disturbing, with many of his works featuring violent and sexually explicit themes. His depictions of alien and robotic beings, often fused with human or animal forms, challenged conventional ideas of beauty and the human form."

Giger's work is erotic and macabre, often presented with sexual imagery to do with penetration and insemination. It blends feminine beauty and horror seamlessly into one.

(Erotomechanics VIII 1979)

Giger is also very well known for his creation of the monster for Scott Ripley's 1979 film "Alien".

The Xenomorph is a reproductive killing machine, reflecting a lot of Giger's previously mentioned interests. It is, in my opinion, peak monster/creature design.

(Giger's Alien)

Women's suffering has always played a massive part in the horror industry and the Alien movies are no different. The reproductive process of the Xenomorph is a direct visual metaphor for the trauma of rape,sexual assault and forced pregnancy. It's violent, bloody and horrifying to watch.

In an interview in 2002, screenwriter Dan O'Bannon tells us the sexual imagery is intentionally overt "One thing that people are all disturbed about is sex... I said, 'That's how I'm going to attack the audience; I'm going to attack them sexually. And I'm not going to go after the women in the audience, I'm going to attack the men. I am going to put in every image I can think of to make the men in the audience cross their legs."

(Man with Helmet and Facehugger 1978, Chestburster, Alien 1979)

(Necronom (Alien 3) 2005)

H.R Giger is one of my favorite artists, and is a direct inspiration for some of my work. I sourced some of my information and photos of his work from an art book called "HR Giger" by Taschen Books.

I also spent some time in the library exploring articles on his work and the metaphors relevant in the "Alien" franchise.

Here are some I found particularly interesting;
