Fandom Promos
2023-09-05 01:26Have you already decided what fandom(s) to write for? If so, how about doing a little promoting? :D
We've all chosen tiny obscure canons, needless to say. But by posting here you might be able to entice someone else to give it a try — or perhaps you'll even run into a fellow fan, who can't wait to read your coming fic.
Your promo can be long or short, and contain whatever you feel like. Want to post a couple of intriguing screencaps from a movie? Quote a few paragraphs from a book? Rec the best episode of an anime or a TV series? Talk about why you love your favorite character and/or pairing from your fandom? It's all good; anything goes!

Muerte en Buenos Aires / Death in Buenos Aires
Date: 2023-09-19 23:00 (UTC)In 1989 Buenos Aires - where chronic, casual corruption is the norm - a wealthy gay man is murdered, and Detective Chavez of the federal police Homicide unit gets the case. The victim's family wants no press or scandal - the victim and his lover were into BDSM. Chavez - jaded and cynical straight, married father of a young son - decides to use the rookie uniform cop, who was first on the scene, in the investigation. What he doesn't expect is his growing attraction to his young protégé - who is learning fast.
Here's the original trailer. I don't know if I can embed it, but I'll give it a shot:
This film is so gorgeously shot and the chemistry between the two leads so obvious, that it's easy to miss the hints and clues sprinkled throughout that foreshadow the shocking ending. I had already seen it numerous times (I own both the Blu-Ray and a digital copy), but I probably rewatched another 15 times while writing my fic -- and yet I still noticed things I had never noticed before! It really bears repeat viewing... or else the ability to not be distracted by the shiny, pretty, sexy.
