This is for the utterly priceless inocciduous, who has been after me since May to write this story, albeit in a very polite fashion. And not this story in particular, but a story about these characters. This isn't holiday themed, but I've been trying to write it for a few months and was thinking about it today. I really love this AU, even if it was never ( Read more... )

So, I was going to go to bed, then quackerscooper requested "Five Times Alan Lost Something Important" AND I HAD TO WRITE ONE OF THEM RIGHT NOW. Mostly because it's this ridiculous inside joke? And also so incredibly Alan that it's hilarious. And it bears no resemblance to something that recently happened to me, I swear. ::shifty eyes::

So, Steven wanted me to write a story about the aye-aye, this ugly little endangered thing in the Madagascan (?) forests that was mentioned in an interesting article on Slate yesterday.

That was the problem with living in a lot of places, he supposed, like cities and probably most suburbs. Centennial had been dark, though, at least on their block, and his ( Read more... )

So, Brendan is fine. For the sake of his privacy I won't go into what happened, but his appendix didn't explode, he didn't die of stomach cramps, and he came home later that night ( Read more... )

It seriously has. Human contact? What? Doing things other than writing and watching teevee? I have no idea what you're talking about. (Michael's doesn't count. Michael's never counts. Michael's from 4-Close tomorrow. I'm psyched, except not really because I hate it.)

Mm. Writing went well.

"...and the whole thing was just, Christ, it was laughable," Alan continued. "I mean, it's one thing to have a spirited discussion over lunch, but who the hell was he to challenge Edward? I mean, I might not like the guy, but he's a genius and you don't just go and dismiss five years of research and who knows how many ( Read more... )
