And we're singing, "......we're going riding on the freeway, Oh no, we can't stop now, we're going riding on the freeway, Gonna love in my pink Cadillac..."
You're the second individual in the last twelve hours that has threatened with a shit hot mess of writing. I stand fearless in the face of you both.
Given the number of time Tash has been reprogrammed with a new personality it's sometimes tough to tell if she's OOC, so no worries on that front either. If I run screaming into the night at least I'll be singing. *g*
It's more "We're on the Highway to Hell in a pink Cadillac..." and so on - line on line alternation for the most part. Bon Scott must be a) spinning in his grave and b) very very confused.
That wasn't a threat, it was a warning. Although we're already on the third rewrite - exposition is bad. Apparently unattributed dialogue is good though. And sleep is for the weak... or at least the weekend.
She's very... vocal. I don't know, she's had half a scene so far, and histrionics were practically called for (hey, whatever works, yeah?)
*snicker* It's not a freeway to hell? Do we still own that lava lake condo? I'd opt for confused personally. *g*
Hah! Threat smeart. Exposition is bad but fixable. Unattributed dialogue means I might interpret things differently then they are meant but hey, whatever works for us, right? Sleep is definitely for the weak/week. I just wish I was being as productive with my not sleeping time as you and Mq are.
Really? Well she usually just forces others to submit to her will/desires but I can see how your mob might have shifted that to vocal instead. Definitely, whatever works. ;-)
No idea, we're having trouble getting past the pink Caddie... especially with Thor in it.
We've just trimmed about six long paragraphs of 'show the audience how the pieces go together' (that took us two days of poking and wracking of memories to get written... sigh. Transitional phases, learn to love them because they ain't going away) down into four distinctly creepier paragraphs of the 'keep up reader, if you don't know Google it later' variety, so yes, exposition is down, dialogue is up. And sleep may be for the weak, but I'm going to have to get some so I function tomorrow.
Oh, there's some of that, but she's got competition in those stakes. Either that or the muses are lying to me and it's actually movie Pepper... hmmm... no. Probably not.
It's a convertible Caddie. You didn't tell me that. Now I've got this indelible image of Thor driving, strike that, not driving *shudders* seated in the Caddie as it drives fast down the freeway to hell, golden locks streaming out behind him and a big shit eating grin on his face.
And so it goes. On both counts. I was going to say, "are you still up!" ;-)
You do know how I feel about movie Pepper? Right? It's very similar to the way you feel about Duncan. If not exactly the same.
I did tell you that, in chat. I still hold that the only Caddies mentioned in songs are convertibles. So, if he's being the pretty passenger, who's driving?
Yes, I was still up. And wow did I crash hard this afternoon as a result.
No, you haven't discussed movie Pepper. I vacillate - the idea has promise, but Pepper as portrayed is... difficult to appreciate (Maybe it's Paltrow? I don't know - I imagine that we'll be running her scenes with someone we like replacing her and see if that helps at some point). I'll bear that in mind, should she show up, and should she not be put on the Ignore list immediately. I don't know that she'd rate the DOA.
Remember sleep deprived here. Info storage is random and not reliable. Jane? *g*
I can imagine. I was telling Sharon that I assumed you'd be crashing hard.
Have you encountered comic Pepper yet? I have no problems with comic Pepper. I don't know who that is in the movies but it's not Pepper. I don't believe it would matter who the actress was. Movie Pepper is just wrong. And do not get me started on Avengers movie Pepper. Even more wrong then IM movie Pepper. Arrrrgh!

I'm also fairly sure that Natasha is pretty much totally out of character, but she seems quite happy to play along.
And yes, the pink Cadillac is still on the highway to hell.
