Hello, all! I've just been rewatching the series over the past few days, and it's got me seeking further gratification now I'm nearly done. I'm afraid I'm not much for writing fic these days, but I'd quite like to read anything you lovely chaps can recommend. I'm looking for something lighthearted, keeping in tone with the series, with ample amounts of fluff and joy; nothing dark or depressing or angst-ridden, thank you, though hardly Madeline Basset levels of cavity-inducing sweetness. I also like medium-length one-shots, as I've not quite the attention span for anything that consists of many chapters. The preferred pairing, of course, is Jeeves/Wooster, though if you've anything of Mrs. Rockmateller*/Duke of Chiswick lying around, that will also be appreciated.

(I do hope this isn't in bad form, but you see I'm rather new around here and looking about, it seems this isn't an entirely unheard of practice. And if I've tagged wrong or otherwised bunked something up, please tell me so I can correct it immediately.)

*I think that's her name, anyway.

edit: I also like a bit of silliness, if you've any of that hanging about wanting to be read.

And who could blame you! I never knew that I wanted to see that, but apparently I do.

[captlebubbles.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I have the effect on people sometimes.

[chuffing.livejournal.com]

Keep 'em coming! I'm all for rare pairs.

[captlebubbles.livejournal.com]

Well I don't have much for Jeeves and Wooster, but I did start people shipping Doc/Wash at RVBSlash, was responsible for most Stig/Stig pairings at TGS once, got several people to seriously contemplate both Hagrid/McGonagall and Filch/Pince (Pinch, as I call it) in Harry Potter, and- this one is my favorite- got a friend to ship Neville Longbottom/Jeff Murdock with me so well that we've built an entire universe around them.

But give it time and I'll be shipping something like, oh, I dunno, Spode/Bicky or something equally daft.

[chuffing.livejournal.com]

Pinch! Hilarious.

I have a deep, endearing love for Kipper Herring. I wish there was more Kipper fic, gen, het or slash, I don't care.

[captlebubbles.livejournal.com]

I have no idea what that is. :D Unless you're referring to the actual fish, in which case bravo, I tip my hat to you (or I would if I were wearing one- in fact, I'm going to go get a hat and put it on just so I can tip it to you) and admit defeat. I have been truly bested in daft ships.

[chuffing.livejournal.com]

He's a friend of Bertie's from Malvern House. He's Bobbie Wickham's fiance. It would be awesome if it were the actual fish, though!

[captlebubbles.livejournal.com]

Now I want to see Kipper/Herring (the ACTUAL fish).

Why.

Why does my brain do this to me. (I also want to see how someone would handle Spode/Bicky, just because I said it. And I only chose them because they were the first names to come to mind.)

[chuffing.livejournal.com]

You should absolutely write some. I would subscribe to your newsletter.

I wouldn't turn that down, either. Or Boko/Biffy. Or Ginger/Bingo. Rocky/Jumpers. I could go on.

Kipper Herring/ Gussy Newt

Just saying...

[captlebubbles.livejournal.com]

I find I rather fancy Gussy/almost anyone. Or just Gussy in general.

[chuffing.livejournal.com]

So. Much. Yes.

Bearing in mind the only thing I know about them is that Herrings are red and kippers are tasty.

[captlebubbles.livejournal.com]

"Oh, Kipper," Herring said, wrapping one red pectoral fin around his lover's. "I would go anywhere with you."

"Well I'm rather glad you said that, Herring," Kipper said, "because as it happens I'm going away now and I want you to come with."

"Of course, of course, my love. Let us go away and be together forever." His adipose quivered in excitement.

"Forever, or until someone opens the tin," Kipper remarked casually. "You know, whichever comes first."

That was so fantastic. It brightened my day considerably. I hope no one ever opens the tin. :)

Re: Bearing in mind the only thing I know about them is that Herrings are red and kippers are tasty.

[captlebubbles.livejournal.com]

Nor do I! The thought of Kipper and Herring whiling away their existence, cozied up in a little tin together, puts a soppy smile on my face.

By the by, would you mind awfully if I were to add you to my flist? Anyone who can make me seriously ship fish is someone I need to have in my life.

Re: Bearing in mind the only thing I know about them is that Herrings are red and kippers are tasty.

[chuffing.livejournal.com]

Oddly enough, it does the same for me.

Not at all! I always like new friends. I'm pretty boring, I should warn you. :)

Re: Bearing in mind the only thing I know about them is that Herrings are red and kippers are tasty.

[captlebubbles.livejournal.com]

Hooray for new friends! And hey, if you bore me too much I'll just discreetly remove you from my watchlist. ;)

I can see the manga now "Tin of Awesome Love" All the adventures and sexcapades of two fish trapped in a tin, carried in a pocket of a happy go lucky tramp, lol!

Go for it!

Re: Bearing in mind the only thing I know about them is that Herrings are red and kippers are tasty.

[captlebubbles.livejournal.com]

This has me giggling madly. I wish you lot wouldn't encourage me, I've been known to bend to absurd whims in the past.

...Perhaps I shouldn't have told you that.

Re: Bearing in mind the only thing I know about them is that Herrings are red and kippers are tasty.

[trista-zevkia.livejournal.com]

no, no you shouldn't, bwahahahhahhaha!

Did you know there was a tag on Indeedsir for Jeeves/Aunt Agatha?

Re: Bearing in mind the only thing I know about them is that Herrings are red and kippers are tasty.

[captlebubbles.livejournal.com]

I saw, and was suitably terrified.

Sexcapades in a tin: News at 11.

"A newt can marry a fish, sir, but where would they live?"

"A tin, I suppose."

"...If you say so, sir."

"Jeeves, shut up and kiss me."

"When you put it that way, sir..." smooch, hot, hot sex, and tea.

Re: Bearing in mind the only thing I know about them is that Herrings are red and kippers are tasty.

[captlebubbles.livejournal.com]

Wait, is this fish!Jeeves/newt!Bertie AU, or a really weird metaphor?

Because either way, I'm game.

As long as Bertie gets his, the tin remains shut. Everyone wins.
