Okay, so I was totally enabling you. Can you blame me? You write the Malfoys - particularly Lucius Malfoy - in a way so intense and breathtaking that it kind of makes me reach for my inhaler. And I don't even have one. Jesus. You just -
Thing is, I've been lurking in a whole heap of fandoms for years, now - so many that I've lost count - including but not limited to Stargate Atlantis, Star Trek, Star Wars, Harry Potter, Kuroshitsuji, House of Five Leaves (a BEAUTIFULLY subtle, subtextually gay anime series! Well, I think so, anyway!), Pet Shop of Horrors (have you seen this one?), Merlin, Supernatural, Smallville, Batman, Teen Titans, heck, I can't even remember all of them, there've been so many.
I'd read your lovely stories long before I was in any position to review them properly, but I aim to remedy that situation now that I have an LJ account and am out of the lurker closet. And, well.
Every time I come across a character like Ciel in one of my fandoms - young, delicate, complex, beautiful and justifiably or unjustifiably proud - I immediately want to hand that character over to your Lucius Malfoy. Like a sacrifice, or something. (It's like there's a permanent marble altar in my head reserved just for your Lucius. Yes, I've got it that bad.) And every time I encounter a character that might be even remotely as much of a magnificent bastard as Lucius is - like Lionel Luthor or Slade Wilson or Colonel Tavington or Bruce Wayne - I kind of want to pit him against your Lucius. To see who ends up on top, you see, or if the two great beasts just end up tearing each other to shreds. *shudders* It's the sort of thrill gladiatorial audiences had when a pair of lions was released into the ring, I guess...?
This really is a terrible weakness of mine. And, um. Sorry for creeping out of the undergrowth with these sudden fantasies involving one of your characters? Heh. (Wait, that last utterance didn't sound particularly apologetic. Um...)
Anyway, thank you for providing me with endless Malfoy-shaped fantasies! *curtsies*
I only hope that I eventually succeed at enabling you with something. :D
