what kind of scary ass clowns came to your birthday party?

[lynzie914]

I've felt, well terribl, for days now. Like I've lost count how many, but its not been fun. I thought yesterday might have been me starting to feel better, but then today came and I swear my body laughed at me, like 'psych, got ya'. And I don't care what the weather station said, my allergies are acting up like crazy. And I'm inside my house. (Yes

I'm so sorry you're unwell :(. And meh, some days, writing just doesn't happen. What is it that you're trying to write?

Could I have Hunger Games for the first meme, and Finnick Odair for the second?

[lynzie914]

Thank you!

Its very true. I'm just tired of my writing slump. My first priority is a b-day presnt that's already late and still has a lot of work to do on it. I have it like half written out in my head but everytime I look at it, my mind goes blank. Second priority is my exchange work, just so I'm not completly scrambling at the deadline, but I have some stuff written for that, so I'm less focused. But still. It seems like anything I attempt/look at (time sensative or not) my muse goes running from. Like you said, some days writing just doens't happen.

I could...try these. But remember, I actually haven't read/seen THG's. (Though from my f-list, I'd say I probably should. It just hasn't happened yet.)

[upupa_epops]

FUCK why do I keep assuming you read Hunger Games??? It's Scorp who's always throwing Finnick/Annie at me, and yet I always, always, always talk myself into thinking it was you! Sorry! Let's do AtS and Wesley instead, y/y?

I haven't even started on my exchange, mostly because I had another one due tomorrow. So, you know, you're my superhero for starting yours :).

[lynzie914]

It's really okay. I understand forgetting about fandoms. Its hard to remember. And ATS/Wesley is an awesome alternative choice. :D

LOL, well who knows how much of it will end up in the end result. But I do like being called a superhero. ;D But you doing more than one exchange at a time, way more then I could do, so maybe your the superhero.

[upupa_epops]

I just work better when I have more on my plate. And also I can't resist shiny objects ;). Right now, I'm working on my WIP (you can tell from this conversation how much actual WORK is getting done...), and, being a crazy person, I'm planning to sign up for another bigbang, because it's been almost a year since I did one. Whoops?

I think we can agree that you're the superhero, and I'm the crazy person.

[lynzie914]

I understand the shiny objects thing. I have a similiar problem. Also, shiny things. LOL, but your still attempting it, that's what counts. And like you said, some days more writing gets done than others. Somedays weridly large amoutns of writing get done. Others...Less so. (Is this your Elena Hunger Games fic, because I have to get my act together and start reading that. I know I haven't read/seen the fusion, but you have me totally intrigued about the story. Also, it has Elena and your writing it, so you now...) LOL, your not crazy. Big Bangs are awesome and shiny and I've signed up for alot of them. and never completed one. shhhh.

LOL, well who said a superhero couldn't be a little crazy? It makes them have more character. :D

[upupa_epops]

SHINY IS GOOD FOR THE SOUL! I need so much shiny in my life it's ridiculous XD.

I decided I need an office to write, because once I get home I get distracted by EVERYTHING. Like, yesterday I hand-wrote 1k words while waiting for a meeting in a coffee shop! Why can't this be happening now?

And yes, this is my Elena Hunger Games fic! I just made a big post about it, because I'm an egomaniac XD. I think it could help you decide whether or not you want to read this fic?

I completed 3 bigbangs so far, all of them about Elena XD. But this time I'll be signing up with a different fandom, so I have a bit of stage fright ;).

Lol fair re: crazy superheroes. Still, there's a line between heroic and stupid ;).

[lynzie914]

SHINY IS GOOD FOR THE SOUL!A VERY TRUE STATEMENT. and also a good possible tag. just saying. :D

[upupa_epops]

This is why I ALWAYS have something to write on. I don't leave my house without a big notebook, and my no1 criterium when buying a new phone was easy writing. I made peace with the fact that I write in strange places XD.

I'm doing The 100 this time! I'm not sure if you watch it?

AtS

favorite male character: I try to figure this out and it usually ends up with a tie between Wesley and Angel. (Which makes me feel bad about Gunn because I love him too, just not as much.) Wesley wins in a lot of ways, but Angel and his dorkiness sometimes wins me over in an episode, but overall story-arc and character wise Wesley probably wins. That and his scruff.
favorite female character: Fred. Fred's one of my favorite characters in general.
prettiest character: My crush on Amy Acker makes me say Fred. But Cordelia is gorgous too.
funniest character: They all make me laugh, but probably Cordelia. Intentionally anyways with her sarcasm and just saying whatever's on her mind. Angel's dorkiness that I mentioned always made me giggle. Him and his anti-hero, save the world talk, that tries to talk Wesley into wearing the pink helmet/imagining himself dance/loving the ballet or getting excited over his turn in getting bandaged up.
favorite season: I go so against the grain with this one from what I've seen in fandom, but

FRED BURKLE GIVES ME LIFE, AND SUPERSYMMETRY GIVES ME CHILLS. I think it should be an obligatory No1 episodes on "Why Should Everyone Ship Fred/Wesley" list. I'm forever bitter that their relationship got retconned in s5. I understand why it had to be retconned for plot reasons, but, man. She rejected and left him (as a friend!) when he was in the hospital with his throat cut, and then she came to him for help when she wanted to murder someone. Can you imagine how fascinating their s5 relationship would've been if they'd remembered all those things?

Wesley and his father, Jesus. That episode had me shaking. Denisof fucking slayed it.

[lynzie914]

FRED BURKLE GIVES ME LIFEYES! AS SHE SHOULD EVERYBODY. SERIOUSLY SO MUCH LOVE FOR HER AND I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND WHY EVERYONE DOES NOT AGREE. obviously we just have better taste than most

[upupa_epops]

Fred gets a lot of eyerolls for being such a ~good girl (and to be fair, Joss deserves some of the criticism for writing ~quirky girls), but this doesn't mean she isn't interesting. Her dominant streak throughout the show is her fundamental disagreement to go down without a fight, and that overrides her bubbly personality when the stakes are high. Late s4, anyone? She came and saved the handsome man from the monsters.

What's most interesting in Fred/Wesley for me is that they both have those fairy tale notions of love that they nurse -- not because they're so naive, but because they have hope for something beautiful. And I want to see their relationship when those fairy tale notions are gone, and they're left with the ugly truth. Forever bitter the show didn't give it to me.

Denisof should be illegal.
