So, I've been in a bit of a funk lately. Nothing serious, it's just that I've felt really...well, indifferent about everything.
Okay, that's not true. I zigzagged back and forth between indifference and anger, neither of which I can explain myself, really. I was either really mad about something, or I just didn't care about anything. And to be honest, neither state was too much fun to be in.
Thanks to my shipper goggles, though, my spirits seem to be lifting...although I'm not entirely sure the shipping is doing a good job for my sanity.
It's just been a constant barrage of ships in this past week alone. First, as I mentioned before, there's the new Dave/Jade appreciation that I developed while following Homestuck. They're just too cute, and the very idea of these two is so adorable! I just...want them together so much!
I also made the mistake of catching some of the season finale of Once Upon a Time last Sunday, despite not having watched the series since...I don't even know, the second episode? I tried to watch it, honestly, because I love the idea. But I kept forgetting to watch the episodes premier, or setting up the DVR to record them so I'd miss them, and then even the ones I did manage to record I never had time to watch, so I just gave up. But last Sunday, my family had gone out to eat and the finale was being shown at the restaurant we were at. And I got curious when I saw Mr. Gold (who I already knew was Rumpelstiltskin even though I've never actually seen the character on the show) with some girl, and he looked like he was going to cry. So my "WTF" curiosity got the better of me, and then I found out it was Belle, and so last night I found clips from "Skin Deep" and...hrrrngh! Just seeing Rumpelstiltskin and Belle was just so sweet, and then rewatching that scene of when they're reunited, I just...so much love.
(Except...am I the only one who felt more of a father-daughter vibe from them in the finale? I guess that's what happens when I watch it without having any clue what's going on, though...haha).
And then today. I was watching new episodes that I was either too busy or too lazy to see when they premiered (haha...I'm not a morning person), recorded on the DVR while I was catching up on some ironing, and...ships everywhere!
I really hope something's done about the Supermatian thing that's going on in Young Justice: Invasion, because if that isn't resolved I'll hurt someone. Ideally I would love them to get back together, but I'd be okay if they didn't (sort of) as long as they deal with whatever happened between them. And then there wasn't as much Makorra as I would have liked in Legend of Korra, although I was super happy when Mako ran up to Korra and hugged her. And I knew something had gone on between Tenzin and Lin, I just knew it! It made me giggle. Plus there was also Phineas and Ferb, and after watching the "Minor Monogram" episode....man, I don't care what Ferbnessa fans say, I'm going to ship Monty/Vanessa until the day I die!
(But what was up with Perry's facial expression at the end of that episode? A lot of...different thoughts came to mind, but a prominent one was that Perry ships Ferbnessa too, haha).
Yet strangely enough, despite all the shipping goodness, I find I don't want to write anything romantic. I just...want to write something. Which reminds me, I should get back to that Gary and Tracey friendship story I was working on...now where did I put it...? *rummages around for forgotten writing notebook*
In other news, I'm in the process of uploading some of my stories onto AO3 (and when I say "in the process", I really mean procrastinating on it). I'm not going to put up all my stories, because most of them are old and...frankly, embarrassing. But most of the ones I wrote after 2005, I think. And maybe some older than that, because people liked them for some reason. But I don't know, maybe I'm being too picky about this? Should I post all my stories, or just the ones I've chosen to put on AO3?
So that's about it. Here's to hoping I get something done tonight.
