1. Man I love Castle. I love how meta it is. I love that the characters use phrases like meta. Watching it kind of feels like a hollywood version of lj-fandom sometimes, except with murder. Um yeah.

2. I've been watching Hawaii 5-0 even though it's really not that good. But what they get down perfectly is the bickering between Steve and Danny. It's hot (yeah, I know it's not meant to be) and kind of adorable in an I want to eat your face kind of way.

I've just discovered a fic that captures that bickering and which leads to bickering-not-really-hate!sex. It keeps them in character and keeps them as testosterone-fuelled men. This fic is a fantastic example of how to successfully transition from a heated conversation to sex - something many attempt but few, imho, succeed at.

3. And one last hd_holidays rec: Of Hoof Picks, Centaurs, and Flight by Anonymous.
Fun and funny - reminded me of oldschool HPDM while still set post-canon.

Also loving on Castle. Thank you for reminding me that Hulu has a new episode waiting for me.

ps - I fantasize about the day he brings up fanfiction and makes some comment about slash while looking meaningfully between Ryan and Esposito. I practically break into a giggle fit just thinking about it.

eee! last night's ep was great! No Ryan/Esposito, but awesome nonetheless :)

Castle equals so much awesome and win! And I thought I was the only one who noticed that about it...

ps - I concur, agree, and have thought the same thing as mentioned in fiona_fawkes ps...
