word count: 2,596
summary: It’s only after she’s gone that he realises he didn’t ask for a name.

word count: 3,621
spoilers: yes
warnings: adult themes
summary: Deep down, she knows she can’t resist him forever.

notes: This fic. This fic. There is a bottle of Merlot next to me, half of it is gone. That’s what it took to finally get through the latter part of this debacle (I have no patience for smut, clearly). Add to that several re-watches of last week’s Vampire Diaries because seriously, KLAUS IS SUCH A CREEPER. I love it.

Written for tvd_rareships’s Weekend Comment Fic Party. Prompt: using sex magic to break the moonstone curse by sandrine. I hope the final product more than makes up for the wait.

Word Count: 2,615

Summary: Forbidden paradise resides in a small crevice where truth collides and festers.

Notes: A Vampire Dairies fic, at last. All I have to say is: this pairing, I ship it like it’s my job.

I have no special regard for Satan; but, I can at least claim that I have no prejudice against him. It may even be that I lean a little his way, on account of his not having a fair show. All religions issue bibles against him, and say the most injurious things about him, but we never hear his side. We have none but the evidence for the prosecution, and yet we have rendered the verdict. To my mind, this is irregular. It is un-English, it is un-American; it is French.

The world is so empty if one thinks only of mountains, rivers, and cities; but to know someone here and there who thinks and feels with us, and though distant, is close to us in spirit, this makes the earth for us an inhabited garden.

( O fair Messalina! What depravity claims your name. )

Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power.

I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.
