Great to see you back again! At the moment I kinda read a lot of Teen Wolf fic without ever having seen a single episode... *g* It's just super annoying because they showed the first two (?) seasons on TV here, but kinda all in one weekend and I just can't deal with that, so I decided I'll buy the DVD. And now there's no DVD and it's unclear whether there will be one, so I'm seriously pondering just getting the UK important for the first two seasons, but then again I know that when I do that they'll release the German DVDs. I sat out "Doctor Who" and they released the missing seasons eventually... I don't knooow.
But yeah, some awesome fic there and I'm so all over the Stiles/Derek thing because so much h/c and pining and angst and happy endings, just my kind of thing. *g*

And the other fandoms are still going of course, but I feel like I've got an overload with "Sherlock" fic and need a break. Looking forward to the final Cabin Pressure episodes. :)

Thanks, m'dear. It's good to be back. :)

And I totally get reading Teen Wolf fic without ever actually having seen the show. I totally was reading Sterek before I watched it, too. And ugh that sucks that the TV showing and the DVD situation are crappy. Ummm is your internet good enough to stream stuff? Couchtuner has the entire show. :)

Muaha, yup, I definitely hear ya on that one, eheheee.

but I feel like I've got an overload with "Sherlock" fic and need a break.

Aye, fair enough.

And as for Cabin Pressure - oh my godddddddddd, I am so, so not ready for the last two episodes. Holy crap. So excited, but not even close to emotionally prepared. Freaking Cabin Pressure. I just love it so so so much. ♥

The internet connection is good enough for streaming, but I just hate sitting at my desk and watching long stuff. I want burrow into my bed and watch stuff on TV. I've got a laptop but... small screen and sound's not good (and also, that's going via wifi so connection not that great).
I guess I'll end up buying the DVds for the first two seasons, and then I'll see about S3, and likely will ignore S4 since everyone hates it. *g* That's what fanfic is for. XD

Cabin Pressure is soooo awesome! So funny, and I'm really looking forward to that last episode. I've only saw a few comments from people who were at the recording and they seemed happy witht it. But awww it'll be a shame when the show's over, it was such a source of joy.

Ah, gotcha. Yeah, I definitely get the desire for a TV, then. I hope you're able to get the DVDs soon! As for ignoring S4 - yuuuuup. Sounds like a good plan. I think 99% of fandom is just basically living in collective denial of it right now. -facepalm- Hells yeah fic. ♥

And I'm glad to hear people seemed happy with it! It'll definitely be a shame when it's over, though, for sure... oh, god, we're so very close now. As for it being such a source of joy - daaaamn, that's well put. It really is. So the thing to listen to when ya need to be cheered up. Cabin Pressure is just the best. ♥

Heh, I once saw a tumblr post about TW plot "developments" or rather plot holes, I'm not sure whether that was after S3 or already concerning S4, but it was basically a long rant about what the writers should care about/finally answer (plot holes and logical flaws, killing off or otherwise getting rid off POC/female/not-hetero characters, hand-waving stuff that should be affecting the characters like whoa) and what they were focussing on (I think... cool hair and clothes? Something like that). God, fanfic is so awesome sometimes!

And aaaaahh the episode! I want to instantly listen to the next one, waaaah! That was so short! Why was this so short? *somanyfeels*

Ahahahahah, oh, god. I have seen (and reblogged, I believe) that post, too. God, that show. Such talented actors, and such interesting characters; and they just can't get the plotlines themselves into anything that resembles functional coherency. -facepalm-

hand-waving stuff that should be affecting the characters like whoa

Thiiiiiiiiiiis. Ugh.

what they were focussing on (I think... cool hair and clothes? Something like that).

Ahaha, sounds about right, yeah. It wouldn't surprise me if this was a S4-related post. S4 was just a nightmare.

God, fanfic is so awesome sometimes!

Aye. :)

As for Cabin Pressure - oh, god, my heart. Have you listened to both parts yet? Don't wanna say anything until I know for sure. Wouldn't wanna spoil you. ♥

I always thought the TW characters are really interesting, that's likely why I ended up reading all the fanfic after starting with something good. *shrugs* and I'm glad that esp. Dylan O'brien seems to be doing quite well for himself outside the show, too.
But I really don't get how writers so often mess up plotlines or the characters themselves. I mean, if they keep writing in such traumatic experiences like being kidnapped, tortured, seeing friends being injured/killed, they simply must have these events affect the characters. That's, like, basic school essay logic. Plot writing 101 or something. *headdesk* I don't want to know how the actors feel about this. It's very similar with Glee that also started out super promising and then just dissolved into a trainwreck because the writers kept rehashing the same stupid conflicts over and over and over although most of that stuff had been resolved ages ago.

Uhm, yeah, but Cabin Pressure!!!!! I wrote a short post about it, but basically I loved it, all the little callbacks to fan favs ( ... )

Aye, exactly. I got into Teen Wolf by reading Sterek fic... and it's so true. The characters are so interesting. Which makes it all the more heart-breaking that the show itself is often so horribly written. -facepalm-

and I'm glad that esp. Dylan O'brien seems to be doing quite well for himself outside the show, too.

Agreed. :)

All OF THIS SO MUCH. Literally exactly that. It really is basic writing 101. And it's infuriating that the show seems to forget that. I'd be curious as to what the actors think, too. And I'm sorry to hear ( ... )
