Fanfic End of the Year Asks

I was tagged by Anon. At least, I think it was an Anon, I can’t find the darn post! I’m quite the disorganized mess right now, I’m afraid, still not entirely back on track after the holidays, but I’m getting better.

So terribly sorry for taking such a long time to answer, but thank you for the asks, Anon!

1. Favorite fic you wrote this year: “The Great Escape” ( https://archiveofourown.org/works/14938958) I keep coming back to this one again and again, apparently because I have an urgent need for Oswald to heal from the whole ghastly Arkham ordeal, and I need for Jim to be there for him and uncompromisingly supportive.

14. A fic you didn’t expect to write: “Practice Makes Perfect” ( https://archiveofourown.org/works/18279254) I love the fake dating trope where they’re secretly pining for each other but don’t dare say, but never felt I could write one. Until one day I thought “Well...maybe I should!” LOL

25. A fic you read this year you would recommend everyone read: As usual, I find it impossible keeping it to just one, so...here’s four:

“When Words Fail” https://archiveofourown.org/works/18107339 by Psycho_Chiquita ( @mexican-texican ) rated G. I loved the progression through important events in Oswald’s life, the powerful emotions we all know he feels, and there’s a lot of hurt, but don’t worry, Jim is there to comfort him in the end.

“Second Chances” by genmitsu ( @lalaurelia ) rated M. (TW for depression, suicide attempt) Because I love that angst! Jim goes through that here, when he must endure a bleak world where Oswald is dead. Or is he...? Told from Jim’s point of view. I also live for stories where Jim yearns for Oswald.

“Tell Me When” by @pamdizzle ( https://archiveofourown.org/works/17785895 ) rated M. Full disclosure, she wrote it based on my prompt ( :D Yay!) and I couldn’t have asked for a lovelier gift. Oswald and Jim have recently become lovers, and Oswald couldn’t be happier. Except, there’s just this one little thing Jim does during lovemaking that he’s not crazy about, only he doesn’t like to bring it up... no big deal, right?

“Swansong” by @nientedal (dalniente)( https://archiveofourown.org/works/20391061 ) rated T. More angst and hurt/comfort! A gorgeously rendered tale in which Minion seemingly dies in a terrible accident, and Roxanne finds Megamind a ghost of his former self and brings him home to care for him and...there’s so much to this story as they grow and change and become something more to each other than villain and damsel. And Metro Man gets into the mix, and it’s just lovely.

27. Favorite fanfic author of the year:

Gotta list two: @lalaurelia and @pamdizzle. Their updates always make my day. Seriously, you guys rock. :)

My take on The Searchers

The Searchers was a pretty interesting movie. It’s one of those movies that I wouldn’t tend to be drawn to because of the theme. I’m not a fan of cowboy movies but this one was different. It was different in age; it’s a lot older than the cowboy movies that I have seen. It’s also based on miscegenation. Ethan, the uncle of the girls that were missing, seemed to have a strong dislike for Native Americans throughout the entire film. He came off as very authoritarian and overly cocky to me. The movie depicted him as a hero along with Martin but in reality Ethan was a villain because he tried to kill his own niece, Debby, after finding her. His mission was to find her and kill her because he was afraid that she now has adopted the culture of the natives and may even have to bare natives child. He did not want to mix the white race with another race. That was his motivation to finding her and to me that is pure evil especially after Debby’s entire family was killed. Also the depiction of the Natives being savages and uncivilized were pretty demeaning. The Natives instead were shown as villains who showed no mercy. Women were also not taken as seriously in this movie. Much of the women dressed in servant attire and always serving men, even those that weren’t their husbands. Their feelings were dismissed often and they were used. For example the Native women that Martin encountered on his search for Debby was used for her knowledge of Native tradition, language to help him get closer to Scar. At one point he even got so annoyed by her he kicked her out away from him. Also another example was when Laurie constantly showed her love to Martin who constantly disregarded her feelings until it was beneficial to him. Even after she was fed up with him ignoring her feelings, she still sought to provide for him by giving him her best horse and helping him find Debby. It was all gross depictions to me. To see the white race and male gender as so superior to where you have diminish another race and gender to build yourself up. To try to destroy and mock the idea and culture of someone else's race because the idea of being white is better. To even go as far as pushing the idea that integration of the white race and another race is a bad idea. I think that’s insane.

The theme “race and gender in American film” fits this movie well. It was a movie that showed race and gender in film to fuel stereotypes and push false narratives with interesting and important ideas that form the American identity. For example, the Cowboy and being a “Texican” was very important to the American Identity because of past history of colonization and wars. With the idea of cowboys and setting this movie in Texas, it puts the audience back to the beginning of how America became, why the nation is so superior, and push the notion that the American Identity is centered on the white man.

On our last day in Austin, we visited several wonderful gardens. but the first stop for my bus was Lucinda Hutson’s garden, forever recognizable by her purple house. Bill and I visited Lucinda in 2014, but I wasn’t able to write a post about her lovely casita then–I was overwhelmed promoting my book–so I’m going to rectify that now.

As always, click on the photos in the gallery to make them larger and get the full effect. Believe me, for Lucinda’s garden, you want the full effect.

Lucinda Hutson’ purple casita has rosemary hedges out front. I wonder if they are the type of rosemary that blooms blue? Or, are do they bloom white?

Small seating are out front. I notice Kylee Baumle in this photo, but with everyone else’s hats and cameras in front, I’m not sure about the others.

Broken pottery mulch at the bottom of the centerpiece tree. Lucinda doesn’t waste an inch of space.

Lucinda is a treasure and one of my favorite people. She is a lifestyle writer, cookbook author, and speaker. If you love tequila, you should buy her newest book, ¡Viva Tequila!: Cocktails, Cooking, and Other Agave Adventures published by the University of Texas Press. The bloggers had the opportunity to buy the books at the Garden Bloggers Fling closing party and also, to try two of the drinks in the book, a Texican martini, and a Paloma. Both were really good. I personally like reposado tequila myself so I liked the martini best. That chili-spiced salt on the rim was inspired. Sorry I didn’t take a picture!

The photos, below, are mostly of her backyard. It isn’t a huge garden, but it is packed full of curated vignettes.

Tile work along the top of the shed.

Lucinda’s writing room.

Inside Lucinda Hutson’s writing room.

I wonder what the Spanish word for vignette is? Ah, viñeta! Of course!

The gate to the cantina garden.

Huge Swiss chard in Lucinda’s kitchen garden.

Cobalt pots holding begonias perfectly grown.

I think what makes Lucinda’s garden work so well is her innate sense of color. She tends to use pink, purple, turquoise and occasionally, yellow. Then, she takes similar plants and pots them up in Talavera pottery or uses similar pots in different primary colors. I wish I had her skill.

Perfectly placed pots on a small table. Lucinda has an ability to bring diverse items together by using color, or a them, or similar pots or plants. I wish I had the same.

Succulents in Talavera pottery. Luckily, for Oklahomans, we now have access to Talavera pottery too. I love the pumpkins and witches myself.

Lucinda’s vegetable garden is full of bold colors and happy plants.

Agaves along a wall in the back garden.

A shady spot for reflection with a purple chair of course! This is in the front yar.

Lucinda has a joy that spills over into every contact with her. I’m so glad she allowed her garden and home to be on tour for the garden bloggers. Nothing was off limits, and what a fantastic place her purple casita truly is. Lucinda grew up in El Paso and is fluent in Spanish. In fact, when she talks, she mixes Spanish and English together with the most beautiful accent. I love to listen to her voice. Check out this episode of Central Texas Gardener to hear Lucinda. There is also a tour of her garden on another episode.

Below are just a few of the pictures I took inside Lucinda’s house. Because I enjoy Mexican culture so much, I love her collections especially her Santos–Saints–and El Día de los Muertos–Day of the Dead memorabilia. She’s traveled extensively throughout Mexico so she has treasured pieces from her journeys.

Tiled steps Lucinda calls her “stairway to heaven” and Our Lady of Guadalupe inside the back door. Lucinda loves Madonnas which are a large part of Mexican culture. Our Lady of Guadalupe is very revered in Mexico.

Some of Lucinda’s Day of the Dead–El Día de los Muertos. Lucinda’s friend told us Lucinda celebrates the Day of the Dead with feasting for her relatives and friends.

Check out the agave glasses on this little bar or altar in Lucinda’s living room. I love those!

This is only a taste of Lucinda’s lovely garden and home. I hope you’ll buy her beautiful book if you like tequila. It has even more history of how important agave is to Mexican culture. In Oklahoma, we’re pretty fond of it too. Thank you, Lucinda, for having us over. It was a morning I’ll never forget.
