mini brainspew! aka, help me name one of my characters again
thing of nifty: mystery roar from way out in space - they're going to discover it's just some teenage alien practicing with his band in his parents' garage.... neat, tho. a cosmic roar. (via ignipes, i think)
fic rec: a dead body, a lot of cash, and a whole heap of crazy, by chaletian - spn/leverage, pg. a small town is visited by more fbi agents than is really feasible. no names are mentioned but it's clear who everyone is. short and sweet and funny and the kind of crossover that could conceivably happen without any hand-waving.
so i'm writing about this painter and the gallery curator who likes him, right? and the painter looks like chad michael mayhem murray, but does not actually look like what i decided to name him, which is mike. well, ok, his mom named him malachi, but come on. i think he looks more like an adam. maybe. and i can't change his name NOW, i mean i've already started writing about him, but i don't like mike. (partly because it screams "this story is based on an rps au plot bunny but i changed the names because i don't actually write rps, altho anything sufficiently au is practically original fic anyway".) i might keep the malachi, tho, possibly as a middle name, because it makes me giggle.
so. if you had no idea what cmm's name really was, what would you think it was? does he look like an adam to you? what does he look like?
(this is chad's imdb page, in the absence of good picspam. i prefer the chad with slightly-longer-than-buzzcut hair.)
also i want to make my sandy-equivalent (who is of course completely adorable and is called lainey) (which is short for melaine which she doesn't love) (i have no idea what's up with me and the m names) an exotic dancer, which i think might be mean.... but i just can't see her as anything other than a dancer. and i'm sure there are medium-classy strip clubs in la - not the super high class places, but not skeevy holes in the wall either. but i don't really want to write about girls who wear fuck-me shoes and spin upside-down on stripper poles for a living, even tho i'm sure you can believably be a completely adorable, bouncy, craft-making type of person at the same time. besides which, can any of you (who know who sandy mccoy is, anyway) picture her in a thong and pasties? ...maybe you can. hm.
(this is sandy. so very cute.)
details, bleh.
it was snowing about fifteen minutes ago. kind of. i think it was more like snizzle. (which is the snow equivalent of drizzle. :D very light snow that's just kind of blowing around and not sticking.)
have made zero progress on anything for findyourwords. have however made some notes. which is better than nothing.
well that was a lot of ridiculousness and braindump. go read the fic - it's fun.
