prison for jerks

Today, on things I forgot I ever wrote: a McKay/Sheppard ficlet. No, I'm serious! This is even weirder than the fact that I've written Ray/Ray, because at least that was for brooklinegirl's birthday, you know? Life is hard for a dialogue slut, you guys.

In other news, my sister -- who is still very much into SGA and has actually, you know, watched all of season 3 -- was rewatching Sunday the other day while I was in the same room. I have two things to say about this episode: first, if ALL SGA episodes involved the characters sitting around gossiping and talking about their social lives instead of boring plot, I would still be watching! and second, omg, seriously, is Atlantis the most boring place ever? The choices are golf, fishing, botany and painting? Wow.

Also found while I was wandering the archives: an entry where I talk about an idea for Sandra/Carol Wilby femslash. And the one where I mention Barney from HIMYM/Craig from Last Night. And a FOB fic where Wentz & Stump are a famous broadway musical team. And a dS AU for the Best Littlehouse in Texas. And the one where fox1013 and I talk about what fannish characters we would want to nurse us through heroin withdrawal. And the SEVERAL DIFFERENT TIMES I talk about Fraser getting paralyzed for life from the bullet in his back.

I don't know, man. I just don't know.

People whose names rhyme with Schmivia and Schmee should start thinking about when a good time for a visit would be. This weekend I am moving all my stuff out of Eugene, but otherwise I am pretty much free.

I kind of want to read random historical AU porn with hints of context. I have no explanation for this, either. Maybe a whole regency AU or medieval AU is too much to ask for, but what about Ray the rake (who is secretly not REALLY a rake, but just appears to be one, and is hiding his broken heart caused by Stella breaking their engagement) and innocent newly-from-the-country Fraser being seduced? Or Fraser the monk and Ray the layman with the precious smile, when the temptation finally overcomes Fraser's vows?

Ah, my brain. I think I shall go sit around and read.

Wow, my SGA reactions are becoming more and more completely inappropriate by the week. Last night I spent most of the episode thinking ( um, most of you don't want to click this )

Wow, it is actually way earlier than I thought it was. I'm totally going back to sleep. But then when I wake up: PACKING GALORE. Woot.

Zee told me I should watch tonight's SG-1 because it was a crossover with Atlantis.

--Possibly this is the first SG-1 episode I have actually seen the whole way through.

( spoilers )

So, SGA! Um, I thought it kind of sucked, although there were a lot of really cute moments. Still better than Siege III, though! (Also, oh, Torri Higginson, honey. I love you already, but really: you don't have to try so incredibly hard!)

Comics -- I've just began Young Justice, and so far it's really not clicking with me at all. Wacky hijinks are all good and well, but I get bored super quickly if it feels like the characters aren't being taken seriously. That's sort of the reason I could never get into the Justice League cartoon when Livia was pimping it, even though it was an entertaining show -- I just need to feel like the characters are real, fully formed people, and I can't do that when the focus is so far elsewhere.

Is there anything better than AIM conversations where you mention a fic idea to your partner and it proceeds to eat the poor girl's brain right in front of you? I THINK NOT.

Two small portions of chat from last night:

ficbyzee: *dies* okay, I was telling thete1 that you'd been reading comics, and liked Roy--
ficbyzee: 'See, she should be into Bruce. He's so FRASERY'
pearl_o: ........
pearl_o: Oh, Te.
pearl_o: That's a comparison I would never have come up with a million gazillion years.
ficbyzee: I am giggling. a lot.
pearl_o: I think that is just a sign that Te's Fraser is several degrees more fucked up than mine!
pearl_o: and by "degrees" I mean "miles".

--

pearl_o: I am trying to pace myself with what I read, since there is so much I haven't gotten to in the comics, but. Uh. ROYS! ARROWS! *love = searching for fic*
pearl_o: ...Roy is not plural.
pearl_o: At least not in any comics I have read yet.
thete1: *dies*
thete1: I fully believe that, somewhere in the Golden Age, there exists an issue of *something* with Multiroy.
pearl_o: I am willing to believe just about anything exists in comics somewhere!

Hahaha, for no reason at ALL that I can imagine -- um, besides boredom -- I was looking up SGA s3 spoilers this afternoon. But they ended up being kind of awesomely entertaining, which was a big surprise! Like, just the general thing about how the producers think the show needs ( um, not really a spoiler )? And then ( casting spoiler ) And that's not even mentioning that, ahahahaha, they're doing the ( episode spoiler )

Speaking of shows with new episodes this summer -- DEADWOOD SEASON THREE STARTS JUNE ELEVENTH, SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEE. Season two dvds 5/23/06! Um, not that I will have 80 dollars to spend on them in a month, but just knowing they will exist is awesome.

Update from the house of Livia and Zee: today, while riding on the streetcar on our way back from brunch, the three of us found yet another truth of the universe. To wit: Rodney McKay EQUALS Invader Zim.

Please discuss among yourselves. We have an appointment with Big Gay Jim and Blair soon, I believe.
