Okay. It’s after 10:30, way past my bedtime, and I’m going there, but I just thought I’d put this out there.

I just reread all of what I’d posted for Firebolt Ring, ykno, hoping to get back in the groove. And I found myself thinking, “Wow, I wrote that? Nifty!” Not actually a good sign. And then I searched my trusty laptop to find the mysterious and unfinished next part of Firebolt Ring. There it was – first section done, second section just begun, and then it just stopped, and I thought… “Oh dear. I don’t remember what comes next.”

The good news is that in general I know what comes next, and hell, I could just make it up. I mean, that’s sort of what I do anyway…

The point: I just spent my entire evening researching (granted, I was researching my own work, but it was necessary) and while it was fun to reread, I’m not sure it helped. ::sigh:: Perhaps sleeping on it will help. Here’s hoping for inspiring and viktorous dreams. (You know, as opposed to the zukalicious ones.)

Right, so… I found this fic that I’d finished and had betaed… well, a while ago. Um, oops. And I sort of forgot to post it. At any rate, here you go. ::hugs:: to all.

Title: Body Image
Author: Sare Liz
Disclaimer: JKR
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 1300
Series: A Firebolt Ring – sometime in the rather distant future from the rest of what’s being written currently.

Claim: VK/HG
Prompt: #100, Writer’s Choice: Body Image [prompt table]
Author’s Note: This is for my Potterverse100 claim. In my head this takes place in my FR series, some amorphous time just before or just after the war when the two rediscover each other. This is the advent of a deeper physical intimacy between the couple. In other news, ::sigh:: I’ve been reading perhaps too much feminist theology. Perhaps not enough. This is for everyone, male or female, who ever thought they were something less than perfectly desirable. And thanks to LadyKesfor the excellent beta!

Title: Letters Home, 2/2
Author: Sare Liz
Series: A Firebolt Ring
Rating: PG-13 for clear and concise conversations about sex
Word Count: 6,298
Disclaimer: Belongs to JKR and Associates.
Notes: Well among other things, herein is addressed those hurtful things Hermione says of Viktor while she’s in the library with Harry, just before the first trial – things along the lines of ‘Oh, why doesn’t he just go study on his ship?’
Can’t remember what went on in Viktor’s head? I recommend you go back and reread Letters Home, part one, or at least the middle bits.

Like a stone taken from the embers of a fire, was Viktor.

Here is a listing of all of the stories in A Firebolt Ring series, in chronological order. This listing will be updated as the stories are.

You’ll notice that there are spaces blank? The series isn’t done. Many people choose to write in absolute chronological order, and while that does make sense… I don’t. Or, I don’t always. Hence the list.

So. I’m feeling better – I just wanted to put that out there first. And second, I’m avoiding doing some real work in the lab, and so just now I’m drinking my contraband coffee (the joys of being the manager of the lab – i can abuse my power) and burning a three volume soundtrack to Firebolt Ring so it can stay in my car for when I forget my iPod. (Which is often.)

::pauses in writing lj entry to have several lovely conversations with friends not seen in a while::

So. I thought I’d post my playlists, in case anyone wanted to know, and for my own future reference, etc.

Vol One

Title: Handy Extra Skill
Author: Sare Liz
Claim: Viktor/Hermione
Prompt: (07) Quidditch
Rating: G
Disclaimer: Prompt from Potterverse 100. Characters the property of JKR and associated persons and corporations.
Notes: This scene occurs in the late spring, during year four, just before the third trial in the Tri-Wizard Tournament. This is a part of my Firebolt Ring series. For those of you who have been following along with the series and not the prompts, this skips waaaay ahead.

Viktor, I don’t have any muscles. Perhaps you’ve noticed.

Title: Letters Home I

Series: Firebolt Ring
Rating: G
Disclaimer: Does not belong to me. JKR & Associates.
Notes: Thank you to my betas who are diligent, but busy. ::huggles::

He hadn’t been bold enough, and it just didn’t get any worse. This would qualify for a Shakespearean tragedy.

Greetings and Happy Tuesday!

I myself have just successfully finished 2/7 of my NEWTs. I breeezed thru Theology (questions on the holy spirit! yay! …also, questions about the first council of constantinople – less yay, but at least it was open book, which means open Google) and happily tripped through the very sad but exceedingly doable Liturgy & Music question (paraphrase: very horrible thing happens in your town, your congregation is being ripped apart b/c everyone blames everyone else. organize a public service for healing using such and such resources and tell us the theological reflection you’ve had on every small decision you’ve made in the liturgy & music. My themes: forgiveness and healing. 3 hrs, 4 pgs, no spaces.).

Now, as much as I did indeed enjoy myself on these two sets, who knows if I’ll actually pass, but I’m less worried about that. I’ll probably pass, and that coupled with the fact that I know God loves me, I’m feeling okey-dokey, and quite a bit energtic.

::bounces, just because she can::

And so, I just went and polished up a bit of fic that I’ve been working on, (you know, instead of my sermon for Thursday morning) and I thought I’d offer it to you. It’s only a few paragraphs, but it is from the next story in the Firebolt Ring series, called Letters Home. Of course, it’s unbeta’d and therefore subject to massive adjustment, but I thought I’d let you in on where Viktor has his silly head this morning. (Well, it’s evening for me, but it’s morning in the fic, you see.)

Viktor! Focus!

Title: First Kiss
Author: Sare Liz
Series: Firebolt Ring
Disclaimer: Belongs to JKR and associated people.

Pairing: HG/VK, Hermione’s pov.
Word Count: 4,619
Warnings: R for serious sensuality
Notes: This is fic number two in the Firebolt Ring series. Fic number one is Passing Notes. I’d like to thank my two lovely and brand new betas, Angelictears and Victoriana, as well as my best friend Rakaiagirl for their reading, commenting, and general cheerleading. My story is much better for their redaction.

Title: Passing Notes, in four parts
Author: Sare Liz
Pairing: HG/VK
Series: Firebolt Ring
Disclaimer: These characters belong to JKR, and other associated sundry corporate ones.
Warning: Rated PG-13 for some double entendre and flutterings in the stomach. It’s strangely contiguous with both GoF book and movie (does this count for the heresy of syncretism?). And yet, this is possibly OOC for Viktor. Not that we have a heck of a lot to go on, but I’m betting there’s more than one story behind his glowering façade.

Notes: So, this is my first sojourn in this fandom. I’m so very excited. And I have no beta, yet. Perhaps this will become very clear to you as you read on. If anyone is willing to take on that heinous task, let me know.
