So.

Anyone in Europe care to come over to watch Chamber of Secrets with me (and possibly Sae)? It comes out over here on the twentieth, and yes, that's original (subtitled) version. I have room to sleep a whol lot of people, so if you can just get here, we're set.

I want to watch this movie with slashers, dammit!

Please?

Whatcha doing in Paris?

Yeah; is he familiar with the media the fanfic in question is based on? Although I know that doesn't necessarily make for enyojable reading: for example, I'm a huge fan of Nine Inch Nails, but all the NIN fanfic I've found totally sucks, so the style of the stories probably plays a part. Also, the way I got into fanfic in the first place was by finding some of Twi's original stories at The Young Writers Club, going "Ooh", checking out her website, reading the rest of her stuff, which just so happened to be fanfiction, although I didn't know anything about "The Vampire Chronicles" (on which it was based), going "Ooh, vampires. Ooh, gay vampires" and then investigating the rest of the fandom from there. So it's maybe just a question of finding a story that appeals, as I'd never been interested in fanfic before then.

Just random tourism, really. I love Paris, and I've not been there since the summer after I graduated, so it's been more than four years.

And yeah, good point. one of the problems, I think, is that he's not really a big media fan, and if one isn't familiar with media fanfic, RPF is rather odd, I think. Although he does like Harry Potter, so maybe I should find him some good HP gen. Hm. A plan! Wooo!

Oh, I see, good plan. Yeah, I've only been there for a day, and it was very nice (I felt much more contented / relaxed there than I have done in most cities) but I didn't get to see much beyond the Louvre, Seine and Eiffel Tower.

Yay!
