This is completely new. I am sitting in my bed this morning, Saturday, Macbook on my knees, writing the round-up. Mr Guylty was away for a couple of nights, and so I have the bed to myself. (There’s only a black cat sharing the Saturday morning quiet with me right now…) I usually compile the round-up on Friday evening. But last night, daughter and I had some rare quality time together and so the round-up post was delayed until now. This is actually very comfy – I am cosy and warm under the duvet, the cat is snoring sweetly, and I can see through the window that we have a bright, dry day today. Hooray – I better get going soon.
But before I get up, I better press ‘publish*…
- Angelpretend has discovered an app that makes some nice fan art
- Ooooh, here’s a gif for me!!! Thank you to Mezz for this little Guy of Gisborne gem. UNF
- Let’s just pretend that Guy is offering up eclairs… Another very naughty What a Guy wants post from nfcomics
- Getting ready for Richard as the father of teeange sons in The Stranger? Well, in preparation, let’s TBT John Porter and Lexie courtesy of riepu10
- John Standring on the phone… NSFW fic by trrriple-rrr
- I have totally no idea what gffa is talking about but somehow it has to do with Richard, so…
- Honestly, if I had a doctor like *that*, I’d find excuses to go and consult him every week… Gifs by riepu10
- the_ironthrone has created lots of icons (for avatars) of RA’s selfies. Makes a nice picture set
- This little one word prompt story of Guy by rcrispina has already been out since February, but I only noticed it now
- No reminder necessary, silvahauntah
- A bit of bagginshield fan art by shadow-room
- And this as much for the Thorin fan art as for the caption… By phantodile
- And finally, an addition to my declaration that I do not like vampire stuff, I was sent this link to one of trrriple-rrr’s stories. This is John Standring as vampire. And I withdraw my earlier objections and now claim the opposite. I love vampires. (Thank you to armitagebesotted for the link!)
Did I tell you I have been letterbombing with love recently? The first of my letters has arrived, and that means I can post the little RAPSi it contained… I’ll do it in a separate post once I have had my shower.
Hope you have a nice weekend!
Guylty ❤️
Mezz you are wonderful as an artist ! So happy you are here to share w us!!
Guylty my interpretation of #6 was Richard was in Phantom Menace as that guard what’s his name and that is what she is referencing there.
The fan art and sparkly Richard
are wonderful to gaze at on a Saturday morning here in VA!!

#4: Never before noticed the ex-wife copping a feel of his leg. I suspect the actress couldn’t stop herself. And I forgive her.
#13: The vampire legend is always about the seduction and the sex. Just depends on how it’s written….
LikeLiked by 1 person
LOL – if you hadn’t mentioned the ex-wife’s wandering hand, I wouldn’t have noticed it. I was far too focussed on the glory of the Portah… I mean, seriously, with gifs of Portah or Lucas or Guy, I often find myself staring at them for several *minutes*, and the only coherent thought I have is “my GOD he is gorgeous!”
As for vampires – yeah, I know. And it’s a knowledge that I can’t un-know *lol*. I remember learning that in college – but it never brought me closer to the genre… I barely tolerated the All Souls trilogy… But this fan fic (mainly because it didn’t allude to blood) was a great read!

Great use of the new selfie in the header! I think the Star Wars thing is about a new Star Wars novel about Padme (Portman’s character), whose ex-lover according to the novelist was our captain. Referenced and pictured towards the end of this article. https://www.starwarsnewsnet.com/page/5

So then the question is… what happened to my previous comment? Did it get stopped because of the link? Weird. Ok let’s try again….. There’s a new SW novel about Padme (Portman’s character) and down near the bottom of this review they talk about our captain (Armitage) being her ex-lover. This link is better I think. https://www.starwarsnewsnet.com/2019/03/spoiler-review-star-wars-queens-shadow-by-e-k-johnston-will-change-your-perspective-on-amidala-and-her-handmaidens.html

Yes, definitely still recuperating. I finished the antibiotics and steroids on Thursday but am still coughing and wheezing and needing the inhaler (right now, as a matter of fact), so #TheBestKate has convinced me to see my primary in the coming week for a checkup. If nothing else, I’ll get it in her records that my childhood asthma has returned (with a vengeance) and that will make it easier to get refills on the inhaler.
