I moved! My room is amazing:) I have a bay window... granted it overlooks a road and the baseball field, but still! It's a bay window and maybe I will start to enjoy baseball or something...
I start class tomorrow! I am really panicking, but yeah.
My best friend's (AR) father died in a car accident. He was a really close family friend and because AR's mom basically up and left a few years ago... it's bad for AR. I'm not really sure what to say since I don't think "sorry" quite covers it. It was my first time attending a funeral and it was horrible. The priest was late, the funeral home was playing Amazing Grace on repeat, and I don't know. It was one of those days where it was okay to blatantly lie and say we were feeling fine and politely averted our eyes while the other person cried and hugged them afterward.
I still don't know what to say to AR. Like I want to talk to her, but it's hard. I don't want to say anything stupid.
Quick Recs since I need to go soon...
Star Trek XI|
Requiem by
moogsthewriter Summary:Caught off-guard by their captain's sudden death, the crew of the Enterprise searches for answers. The problem? Jim Kirk isn't dead.
My thoughts: This is gen, but it is by no means slow or boring. Character interactions, plot, and EVERYTHING (humor, angst, panic??). This is a WIP, but it's worth it. I wouldn't start reading this unless you have an hour or so to catch up:) There are currently 5 parts.
Subtracting the Stars by
coffee_muse Summary:After jettisoning the warp drive reactor cores, getting anywhere is going to be a slow process for the crew of the Enterprise. First in what I'm calling the Fallout 'verse. Kirk/McCoy. PG-13. Established relationship.
My Thoughts:Basically picks up right after they escape Nero and are heading back to a Starfleet base. Brilliant character study and there was this understated romance between Bones and Jim which was brilliant as well. The writing and dialog are perfect for the situation!
Harry Potter|
The Path of Least Resistance by snegurochka_lee
Summary:Teddy had been clean for barely thirteen weeks the night Albus landed on his doorstep, reminding him of everything he'd tried to leave behind. It's hard to mourn a loss when you can barely acknowledge it's happened. It's even harder when you think you're responsible for it. Teddy/Albus Severus. Past unrequited Teddy/James. Appearances by Harry and Luna.R. Warnings: Substance abuse. Grieving after a major character death. Albus is 18.
My Thoughts: This is one of those stories that just gets under your skin. You don't have to be an addict to feel what the characters are feeling in this fic and it's just... wow. It's all about hope and moving beyond your past mistakes. ♥
