1. WHY DID NOBODY TELL ME THERE WERE TRIBBLES IN THIS MOVIE DAMMIT NOW I'M GOING TO HAVE TO WATCH THE THING

Here is new favorite gif to give you some spoiler space:

a giant tribble is sitting in Kirk's captain's chair. It breathes.

2. I posted a fic!

Hand In Hand (1595 words) by melannen
Fandom: Les Misérables - Victor Hugo
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: Canonical Character Deaths
Relationships: Cosette Fauchelevent/Marius Pontmercy
Characters: Cosette Fauchelevent, Marius Pontmercy, Les Amis de l'ABC
Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Prehistoric, Empty Chairs, Cave Paintings, Post Barricade, Caves, France (Country), Painting, Memories
Summary: In the south of France, a group of young men once came together to teach, to learn, and to fight for the rights of all humankind.

...I am told it makes people cry, so, uh, be warned? (all of the fic I want to write in this fandom right now is about all of Marius's friends being dead, don't ask me why.)

3. Speaking of, there is now a general, everybody-welcome Les Misérables community on DW so we don't have to keep trying to have serious discussions on Tumblr:

If you are even peripherally in Les Mis fandom, come join! Come play! My current plan is to keep posting stuff about Waterloo there until other people start posting just to stop the pain. :P

4. Reminder that the Books and Comics giveaway is still active. If we have ever had any interactions in person or on the internet you count as someone I know.

(Oh btw, if you claim any books: can you PM or email me a functional mailing address? I kind of forgot I would need that when I made the original post.)

YAY!

Maybe don't post fic or art or icons to the main comm, just so we can keep from overwhelming it, but feel free to link to fanworks posted elsewhere, with a summary or thumbnail or a couple of teaser icons!

So, the basic "I wrote this fic, here's the info and link to it" is good, but posting the fic itself is nope? :)

Yes exactly!

If people want a spin-off fanworks comm too, I think that's an awesome notion too -- I'm all in favor of as many DW spaces as would be active and non-redundant, personally. But I was thinking to keep this one more of a discussion-based comm, however freewheeling.

I love the accusing look on Kirk's face in that gif! (like, 'why is there a giant tribble in the captain's chair? Anyone?')

I 100% spoiled myself for ST. ..i don't think I need to see this one in theatres. Sigh.

I fear the tribbles in this movie may be less awesome than you are expecting ...

True, but I still laughed out loud in the theater when the tribble part came on.
