what the hell

Lesson: I should not be allowed to watch season finales and then start typing without a clear idea of where the fuck I'm headed.

( You want to see if what's under your feet is really concrete and if she'll gasp as you slam her down into it. )

writing: fanfic, supernatural

I found you from poking around on my friends-list and this is what I find first? Yowza. ;) Ridiculously effective- if this is what comes from gut reaction writing, keep it up!

(I've been poking around your LJ and now I think I have to friend you- hi!)

*pokes around politely in return*

I always need more people who will rant about Shakespeare on my flist!

One can never have too many crazy Shakespearean LJ friends, I always say. :D

Exactly :)

Tempest icon! Ooh. I have a rather serious Tempest fixation.

See, it's a sad confession to make, but I have yet to really fall for 'The Tempest.' There are PARTS of it that I love and it's not that there's really anything I dislike, but as a whole, it has yet to Do It for me. I'm supposedly directing some scenes from it this fall with a group of middle schoolers and I am DESPERATELY hoping to love it by then. *SIGH!*

Well, it didn't grab me at first, and then I actively despised it for a while because I played Miranda in a school production and just didn't like her as a character at all, but it's since wormed its way to far into my heart that I even wrote fic for it. Which I tend not to do with Shakespeare, but...this one was an exception.

I am kind of crazily in love with every single one of your icons, btw. I now feel that my own collection is SADLY LACKING in Shakespearean ones.

Oo, oo Tempestfic! *reads* *LOVES* I have both a huge weakness and a huge snobbishness towards any sort of Shakespeare related fiction. I'm extremely picky, but when it's done to my liking, I'm tapdancing on the ceiling. ;)

As for icons, do you find yourself looking at your own icons every so often, just because they're that pretty? I admit to oggling yours in return... ;)

That was how I got fond of Tempest, actually: I became intrigued by the possibilities inherent in the Prospero-Ariel-Miranda dynamics, and how interestingly ambiguous the whole situation it.

I am deeply attached to every one of my icons *grins*.

I remember the days when three icons seemed like such a quantity of riches- now I'm at 113 and I want even more. Culling the fold every few months by even one or two icons is heartbreaking.

The one scene that gets me genuinely excited in Tempest is with Caliban's 'Be not afeard, the isle is full of voices'. I did a project for a class once where I imagined directing the scene- I got to plan sets and costumes and did a detailed line breakdown for the best bits. I saw my first production of the play last summer and it was like they slipped the actor playing Caliban all my notes- it was so perfect I wanted the play to end right there.
