WE HAVE BEEN SPOTTED!!!

[slumber]

I saw this yesterday, in our local paper (which has a pretty big distribution). Shipmates, friends, countrymen, we have been spotted!

H/D is now mainstream! YAY!!! Go us! *does crazy weird dance*

Note: "Pwedeng makibasa?" translates to "Can I read it?"


I texted the artist, Lyndon Gregorio, last night and asked his permission to post it, considering issues regarding IPR and stuff, and he gave his approval, so now here it is! He's a comic strip artist and his series, Beerkada, is pretty new (a few years old). Which is good, too, because it's fresh, and I've always liked the humor and the art, and he graduated from my university. *is proud* His website, if you're interested in his work (Some of the strips are in English. :D) is Beerkada.Tk.

Mr. Lyndon, if you're reading this right now, thanks for allowing me to post it here. :) This was so cool, and it came out yesterday at the most perfect time! (In the Fictionalley.org forums, where some of us fans hang out, the thread for the Harry/Draco fans just overtook another thread, for Draco/Hermione fans) in terms of number of threads, and since we're now the third largest thread, all of us were in a highly celebratory mood. Yes, we get high on things like that. ;P Thanks.)

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIEEEEE!!!!!

We're on Beerkada!!! OMIGOD!!!!! *does happy dance*

Although...I wonder what would've happened if Boopey had been reading Snarry instead....

*snicker* Oh dear. Oh, Mr. Gregorio....*hinthinthint!*

[idroppedarice.livejournal.com]

Ahh! *flails*

Squeee! Thatissocool!

*loves upon Lyndon Gregorio*

And that he has such a cool name, too. Hee.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! that is so cool!

We need to make Mr.Lyndon an honorary member of H/D, haha.

Number 3! Number 3!

Icon love :D:D

Ack! Snarry! LOL. I think he wanted to go for the one that wouldn't likely put him in jail. LOL. Some moral, upbringing citizen might think that's supportive of pedophilia, or something. *rolls eyes* But *squee*! :D

[slumber.livejournal.com]

Whee! True, true. *nods sagely* This is the first time I've seen something on the newspaper for a Harry Potter online fandom-related thing, and it happens to be Harry/Draco. :P

Yep, pretty cool pseudonym, huh? :D

Re: wOOt!

[slumber.livejournal.com]

Brilliant idea! :D (That is, if he's Boopey. Haha. He might have been the one scarred from the exposure. LOL.)

[darth-stitch.livejournal.com]

LMAO!!

I think Lyndon should reserve THAT strip just online and keep the Snarry "secret" among us evil slashers.

And as for the next guy Boopey should traumatize with the slashy goodness? I vote for Alan. Or maybe Glen. Hee!

Re: wOOt!

[prettyveela.livejournal.com]

Thanks! For the life of me I can't remember which person I got it from.

I can't change icons, I'm branded for life with hobbits and asses, ha.

Re: wOOt!

[fallen-memories.livejournal.com]

Welcome!

It's a great icon - whenever I see you, I always start humming the song ;) And perving on teh sexiness of the hobbits, of course :P

I can understand why you can't change icons. Aren't there support groups for those kinds of things?

~Lia

[slumber.livejournal.com]

Hmmm... that would be interesting. >:P (I bet Brian will never look at the strip's Harry in the same way again. LOL.)

Alan would be cool! (My girlfriend is turned on by male/male action. Is that what I have to do to get her off?)

Or Jimmy! (I don't get it.)

Hee. :P (Btw, this strip's also been posted on Mugglenet.com!)

[slumber.livejournal.com]

Thanks for dropping by! How about being honorable member of the H/D ship, as PrettyVeela suggested? You should only be so honored. ;P LOL.

[sparklespiff]

Dude! Cool!

[abilizersparkle.livejournal.com]

That is the coolest thing I've ever scene. The fact that this exists in RL, that it's been noiticed and put in black and white print for all to see it just so f*cking cool!

[treeperson.livejournal.com]

Oooh! Squee! I saw this when it came out and everyone was ranting about it on GnH! I'm so pleased! We're recognised! We're noticed! We're...we're...I feel so LOVED! *crumples into a little ball of raging emotions* SQUEE!

Hello!

Loffs!

Oh, and if you want to see my reply to the homophobic comments made on MuggleNet in light of this strip, go see my LJ.

[slumber.livejournal.com]

Hiya! *friends back*

Woah... Mugglenet made homophobic comments on this? I know they spotted it, but homophobic comments? Tsk tsk. I should have known... they're the same forum that mod-thwaps on any slash discussion because it isn't "family-friendly", after all.

[slumber.livejournal.com]

LOL. And the artist *points above* says we're all sick. Haha. *loves upon artist and treeperson*

[slumber.livejournal.com]

Yes! Yay we are getting recognition! Hee. :D

[slumber.livejournal.com]

*parties for H/D*

[black-ace.livejournal.com]

WooT Mr. Lyndon! We H/D people will take over the world someday!

Ace

[sparklychibi.livejournal.com]

Ahaha! I love it. It's so beautiful. Just goes to show how influential us gutterpirates are.

I nominate Mr. Gregorio as Official Ship Cartoonist!

[slumber.livejournal.com]

YAY! :D Never thought it possible, but my dreams of world domination are at hand! *cue evil laughter*

[slumber.livejournal.com]

Hee. I bet he'd be thrilled! :P

Have I mentioned this already? You're all sickos. :)

I officially deny reading any form of slash fiction, esp. H/D.

And oh, yes: I also deny wearing women's lacy underwear, esp. those silk-pearl thongs with off-white lace stockings and matching corset that accentuates my lush curves.

That is a complete fabrication made by my enemies. It is simply not true.

I watched DAWN OF THE DEAD, where flesh-eating zombies take over the world. There is a visual image on my mind that they also read H/D.

Chilling.

~L.

[slumber.livejournal.com]

Hee. :P Not gonna stop the fans from including you as honorary member of our ship, you know.

You know too much about underwear. :O !!! :P

Must watch DAWN OF THE DEAD then, now that H/D is involved. :D

By the by, you might wanna check this out: http://potionsmaster.slashcity.net/art/slashads.html It'll scar interest you. ;)

[brianne.livejournal.com]

I think this is adorable. Except for the fact I have no idea what Puwedeng Makibasa means. *feels stupid*

Oh this is Hannah Gray from FAP btw.
