Heh.
I have had this icon saved to my hard drive forever. I have no idea where I got it or who made it, but it makes me laugh every time I see it, which is good enough reason to finally use it.
So, here is an unlocked, non-emo, fangirl post. Phew, it's been a while!
(
Some rambling talk about Castle, Stephanie Plum, Prison Break and other shiny things beneath the cut )
All the authors are still a blur in my head, but I have bookmarked a few rec pages, and that's where I started.

Here's the link to all the Castle fics on Ao3:

That should keep you busy for a while. *g*
As for PB...sigh. I would like that too, but I fear that day may never come. I was a huge Twin Peaks fangirl back in the day, and the ending totally traumatised me. Have I rewatched any of it since? Nope. And don't get me started on the third Matrix movie. *shudders*
Whenever I think of how the show ending and how I felt picking my way through fandom in the days afterwards, I feel blah all over again. It was just such a *waste* of post-finale potential, you know? If the ending (and TFB) hadn't been so brutal, the fandom wouldn't have crumbled into a sad little heap the way it did - there would have been endless icons and AU fics and 'what happened next' discussions. Instead, like me, it was as though so many people were "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" at the ending that they literally couldn't address it. I look at my lovely PB posters every time I'm in my study (like now) and wonder how much longer I can bear to keep them up on the walls, because they still make me so sad.
*hugs you back*

This is really true, and such a shame. I know several of those authors, but a few are new to me. Thanks!
