Let's hear it for the boys!

Amidst all the chaos of posting Delicate Sound of Thunder, I never had a chance to show off all the icons ravurian made for me; just the primary Harry and Draco one. Aren't these great? Isn't he talented? The one of Sully (post-Daniel make-over) is too much!

And it got me thinking... I always think of new LJ names as default female, but there are a plethora of men in HP fandom, too. So here's an attempt to list the ones I know. Let's hope I don't wholly embarrass myself by putting someone in the wrong column (or hope that I can edit fast enough so you won't notice). And I want you to help, too, by adding the guys you know of in the comments, 'k?

arrmaitee, black_dog, copperbadge (aka Sam Vimes), danxsunday, idiotic_savant, jexay, kayen (aka Andreas), nopejr, nothingbutfic (aka Abaddon), pauraque (aka Eodrakken), petulantgod, phreid, ravurian, son_of_darkness, tipgardner, titanic_days (aka AlexMalfoy).

ETA: aegeus, ap_aelfwine, bookofjude, cadeyrn, coffeesama, dalhessian, dadelius, emeraldjay, folk (aka John), flyngaimlessly, lightnote_blend, jcalanthe, jiggery_pokery, jonem, kenboy, malachan, mark356, owlman, petulans, portkey, slowfox, stanharding, stormwynd, the_gentleman, tromboneborges, wemyss, ziggy1278

ETA Jan 2006: anothersuperboy, clsgraduate, daddybear716, flayer_of_minds, kelvinyip, onlydeepwithin, tm_nicholas, xtremewiccan

	Sully by Ravurian
	Carr and Snape by Ravurian
	Daniel and Draco by Ravurian
	Dean and Hermione by Ravurian

ETA: Daniel is Ryan Gosling, Hermione is Thora Birch, Dean is Kele Okereke, Carr is Alfred Molina, Snape is Alan Rickman, Harry is Hugh Dancy, and Draco is Boyd Holbrook. I whined about insisted on Boyd; Ravurian selected the others, and I love them.

I think the semantics would be interesting: to see how people envision concepts like 'slash' and what not.

(You read my LJ? Back to hiding under the desk again.)

I suppose the most pithy reason for this is to decide whether or not to post the "whining about menopause" entries. That's a negatory, cap'n.

I friended your journal when I was such a newbie... a wee little fan.

Maybe a filter? I have a filter for TMI and sexuality stuff.

Aww, but then I have been here a very long time. Some may say too long. ;)

I suppose I have an LJ filter in my brain that says "Who the hell cares about this but you, geoviki? No one, so leave it."

It reminds me of someone I used to work with, who was Mr. World-Famous Tectonic Geologist. We peer-review all our publications, and he commented to one poor sucker: "Why don't you just xerox this paper and give it to the two other people on the planet who'd care?" Ouch! (He was fairly nice to me because he disrespected my boss almost as much as I did.)

And I should say: not having read the fic, but the Daniel bloke sounds damn hot ;)
