What-ho all!
I was shopping the other day and was amazed when I found out that they actually do sell original Jeeves-stories here! (I hate the finnish translations)

Those novels have really inflamed my Jooster-nerve again and that's why I come here bearing some scraps, I hope you guys like them :)

Slightly Off-topic
My friend and I were in a book shop earlier, browsing through the clearance boxes full of 5$ books, when she picked out one particular book and reiterated the title to me.

"Wake up, Sir!"
"Hang on... could I see that?"

This piece of work author Jonathan Ames, wrote a book about a modern Jeeves. The Jeeves character is still exactly the same as he was in the original Wodehouse books. This Jeeves resides in modern America, and is valeting for a man named Alan Blair, the narrator and protagonist. Blair embodies many of Wooster's mannerisms with a degree more intelligence and a more modern way of speaking. Also, he has an actual interest in women, though he believes in the Jung theory that we are all essetially bisexual. He is an alcoholic, and smokes marijuana. And he has an Aunt Florence. Gahhah.

There are passages in the book where he is actually discussing his homosexual fantasies with Jeeves. The fantasies cite Papillon as its inspiration, with Blair fantasising about being held captive and being forced to play the role of the woman to another prison inmate.  He concludes this is more regarding his desire to be loved than his desire to actually be forced into depraved acts. Jeeves is not perturberd at all by the conversation.
Halfway through the book at the moment, so forgive me if I post about this again at a later date. I'll try not to rant too much. Some things are just too good to keep to oneself.
Terribly sorry if this is OT, but I highly recommend the book. Jeeves is still his stuffed frog self, extricating the new young master from modern dilemas. Thought I'd share, even if it's not slash-per-se. :) 

Has anyone else read this? I didn't find any posts about it. Unless I'm missing something.

EDIT: Yes after rereading my post I realized those of you who have read the book pointed out that Jeeves is implied to be a hallucination, which I forgot to mention.  :)

Um.

Okay.

I did not write this.

And it's really short.

But I thought I should call people's attention to the fact that, of all the strange minor-character Jeeves and Wooster slash, somebody actually shipped older!Dwight/Seabury.

Which makes me wonder, what other obscure-pairing fics do you guys know of? Just curious.
