Oops!
If Friday Fics Fix appears in your feeds early, ignore it.
I pushed publish instead of save 😅
In my defence, the mouse slipped that time! Blogger really needs to put the buttons further away from each other!

Micropoetry - October 2019
Micropoetry time again dearest nerdlets!
(Yes, I realise that it's the 20th of November. I have time issues. 😅)
This month's offerings are maybe a li'l weird
...but it was October dammit! You can totally be weird in October! (*pretends I'm not weird all year round*) 😅
As always, for those using a screen-reader, the poetry is in the alt-text, with line breaks marked with a / symbol.

Nerd Church - Think Before You Speak
Social media.
Love it, loathe it, or (like most of us) find yourself somewhere in between.
Whatever you feel about the ol' socials, sh** escalates fast online!
I... kind of think that a lot of the escalation is related to people not having some sort of filter between their reaction and their mouths/fingers
- (talking and typing - I mean talking and typing. Minds out of the gutter nerdlets!)

Friday Fics Fix - 'Round the Houses
'Loki was left-handed and took a broom that was on the very end. He had plenty of flying practice at home, but he was still nervous. His first day had been going so badly, one more embarrassing moment would just be the cherry on top.'
It's a pet theory of mine that at some point, everything in fandom has been crossed with Harry Potter.
Sometimes this is a full-on cross-over, with the characters from the Harry Potter books/films running around with characters from Marvel or DC or Torchwood or whatever.
Sometimes, though, this crossover takes the form of a Hogwarts/Harry Potter AU.
A Hogwarts and/or Harry Potter AU is an Alternate Universe where the characters from a fandom are placed in the setting of the Wizarding World, attend Hogwarts, work as Aurors, etc.
This may or may not involve actual appearances from Harry, Ron, and Hermione.
