Script [

I bookmarked the VG script that was at Moulin Goldmine (at least, I think that's where it was) a while back. Trying to go back to it today, though, Yahoo told me that the site no longer existed!!!


...Someone please tell me the script exists somewhere else online?

Flashfic! [

Prompt:  breakfast and C/B/A
Warning:  None
Disclaimer:  Written purely to put a lump in Wyntini's throat.  Todd Haynes owns the lovelies.


That Tommy Stone was, in fact, the reincarnation of Brian Slade, was the only thing about the night that was expected.  Curt left the bar first, left Arthur sitting there, too grown to be hopeful, but stunned with a pendant pin-prick on his tongue.  And Curt left the bar, but he didn't leave, he was blowing huffs of smoke against the brick when Arthur stepped weary onto the groupie-strewn street.

"You want it back, then?"  Arthur asked in his low, sensible voice, reaching into his pocket to return the last bit of magic he might ever see in his life, his tongue stinging.

"You live around here?"

Curt knew absolutely nothing about charm or guile, but his draw was cosmic.  The flush running down to the center of Arthur's body was just him, burning up in Curt's atmosphere.  That's all.

19 and 1/2 blocks in unexpectedly companionable silence.

Curt looked around Arthur's place with open interest and waited with unexpected boyish awkwardness as Arthur poured him a beer.  Sex seemed obvious -- that's what men do when they take each other home.  Arthur fell asleep crossways on his bed with his socked feet skimming the floor.  Curt stayed awake and picked through Arthur's album collection and felt a quiet rising inside.

For breakfast, Arthur didn't burn the toast and Curt leaned out the window to smoke.  They were unexpectedly tender with each other -- only distant to keep from touching the open wound.

It was clear now, the morning after nothing and an empty chair at the breakfast table.  They missed him.  In different ways and for different reasons, but they missed him.  Missed Brian because they needed him.

Maybe, Arthur thought, running two plates under the tap, after all they'd found each other --

"When did you figure it out?"  Curt was scratching his stomach and leaning against the stove, thoroughly settled in.

Maybe they could find Brian too.

He was out there -- it was obvious by the way Curt was lingering.  He still believed it.

Green Stars and Glitter on the Doorway [
Sunday; July 19; 2009]

citrusy_fun
[ mood | tired ]
[ music | Movie - Cruel Intentions ]

Title: Green Stars and Glitter on the Doorway
Author: Prince Sal (that would be yours truly)
Rating: PG (it could be G)
Disclaimer: I don't own... kinda wish I did
Notes: There is no pairing in this, this is more or less a drabble on what could happen after the movie. I am a Curt/Arther shipper on VG big time. I thought that the movie did a great job of leaving things open to give actual fans to write might happen. I've never written VG fiction, but I loved the movie (saw it for the first time in a goth club where me and my resident pretty boi, Thom, watched it). Warning, this is pure drabble. I came home from work, and this came out of my fingertips (I should mention I work third shift, so this is sleep deprived writing too. I don't remember if it is even coherant.

Enjoy

Sebastian as sung by JRM? [

Hi all!

I was just wondering if anybody knew if there was a full version of Jonathan singing Sebastian?
It happens to be my favourite song of the lot, and I can't seem to find his version (which I like much better)  anywhere!
Any help pointing me in the right direction would be hugely appreciated.

glam find! [

[ mood | excited ]

Hey Goldmine friends...

Haven't posted here in forever, but I've found this glam gem and feel the need to spread the word, because they are AWESOME. VG was the beginning of my now ten-year love affair with classic glam rock, and with the exception of Placebo, and maybe Pulp, I feel that new glam bands haven't really carried the torch...but man, Django James and the Midnight Squires might be the band that I've been waiting for.

Check it:

Django James & the Midnight Squires

much love,
Maggie

Hi! *waves*. New member here.

So I spent a ridiculous amount of time iconing what is rapidly becoming my favorite movie of all time :). I used PSP9, and the caps I used came from here.

Cross-posted to my friends-only journal, [info]velvet_goldmine, [info]vg_icon, and [info]velvetgoldmine_. It links to my icon journal.

Rules:


Part One
Teaser:


( And they say it isn't natural... )

Part Two
Teaser:


( Because rock and roll is a prostitute. It should be tarted up. )

Get Well Card [

[ mood | sleepy ]

By way of our fab jrmfansite.org messageboard, from Ali, JRMs brother:


Latest news... Jonny is in hospital in L.A folks. He had a perforated ulcer a few years ago when visiting us in Jersey and it's playing up again unfortunately :-/ He is ok and is fine. Jamie rang me last night and told me. He is in L.A so he would know. Hope this clears it all up for you all? Cheers :-)

A lot of messages have been gathered via email/private message but now we've got a form set up where anyone can pass on their wishes and we'll get them direct to Jonny himself. He's having a bit of a tough time of it, and Im sure hearing well wishes from adoring fans wouldnt hurt at all!

Feel free to link to this info in your LJ, pass on the link etc. HOWEVER we'll be closing it off really soon, a day or so I believe.

BTW FYI: the comments on the page set up are moderated them, so it may look like there's none, when there are actually many.
