Recs! Mostly Teen Wolf...

So it turns out I'm now an every-six-months kind of reccing person. Oh well, I read some good stuff - here's the highlights.

( The Avengers (2012), X-Men: First Class (2011)  )

( Marvel Avengers Movies Universe, The Losers (2010)  )

( Cyteen – C.J. Cherryh )

( Discworld – Terry Pratchett )

( Dogma (1999) )

( Meta - Fandom  )

( Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen  )

( Prometheus (2012)  )

( Supernatural RPF )

( Teen Wolf (TV)  )

( X-Men: First Class (2011)  )

So, domestic / family / intimate partner violence.

Not my story to tell, so let's talk in generalities. For what it's worth, you can tell me. I won't judge you, or them, even of you are 'them' (I will tell you your behaviour is unacceptable and work with you to find better ways to behave). Because I want you to be OK, and I want your life to be OK. Because no-one should be hurt or afraid and one of our responsibilities as grownups is to find ways to be that don't harm the people around us. Or anyone really.

• No, it's never OK
• Not even if it 'only' happens every now and then
• Nope, not even if they are really sorry after
• Never, especially if they are the co-parent of your kids
• Nuh-uh, you can't provoke someone into being violent - they are responsible for their own actions just as you are responsible for yours.

Yes, it's scary looking at the loss of a relationship. It's also scary living in a relationship where someone feels entitled to hurt you when they can't cope. This is unacceptable.
