dance like a monkey, take 3000

Hmm, you know, most of the time when I'm reading really really good stuff, my reaction is mostly just "Mmmmmm, wow, this is really really good". Only once in a while -- and this is without rhyme or reason that it seems to occur -- my reaction starts going more like "Mmmmmm, wow, this is really really good -- and man, I wish I could write anywhere near this good, but I can't, so I think I will go crawl into a hole and die now of my suckitude." Which is strange and uncomfortable, but as the only way to avoid it is to not read anything good, it must be worth it.

Other things from tonight, besides painfully good fic-reading:

+ Trying, mostly in vain, to explain to ineke the vast appeal and wonderful hotness of Chris Kirkpatrick

+ Sitting alone in #discourse with dsudis and brainstorming horrible woobie-riffic Fraser story neither of us is writing

+ Polyamorous Recs update, yay!

+ I love the little tacos Coca-Cola. I love it gooooood..

+ Also, tstar78 made this icon! She told me she had random pictures to make stuff with, and I was the first person who came to mind for Keira Knightley. I am very very okay with this. Pretty!

would it help if total strangers bombarded ineke with photos and incoherant ravings about the Absolute Hotness that is CK? because I'd be happy to back you up on the attempt; it's always a shock when I stumble across someone who just doesn't see it!

No! While I deeply love the Kirkpatrick we must leave Mizz Ineke alone to finish writing Remus/Sirius.

Please? She's a natural fannish butterfly so I'm sure she'll come round to the Kirkfantastic sooner or later. I suspect the Little Red Monsters cd will do the trick.

I agree with this completely, only with the changing all the HP references to due South ones.

ROFL. Poor muffin! Having us fighting over the fruits of her pen. :D

Heh, no, I don't think popslash has really grabbed her anyway. Plus, you know, it's really a realization one has to come to oneself. (I knew one girl who when she first started in popslash was all "yeah, no, I only like the pretty one" and six months later was all "OMG, you were right, CHRIS IS TEH HOT.")
