i-con see you!

Dec 13, 2009 12:28

I am supposed to be doing something chore-related, but the washer and dryer are both full, and the kitchen is still occupied by a crazy man with hops and boiling malt, so I'm doing the icon meme-thing.

harriet_vane picked six icons, and if you comment, I'll pick six of yours to explain. ( :D )

science!, tds, tcr, tabby, meme, bden is my favorite

THAT IS WHY I PICKED THAT BRENDON-N-PATRICK ICON. BECAUSE THERE SHOULD BE BILLIONS OF WORDS OF THEIR BFF-NESS

I started a story like that one time, but I only wrote 10 or 15k of college!AU before I gave up. I forgot about that.

It's like people don't understand the awesome power that Brendon and Patrick combined could be. Clearly, we need to convince someone to write about them for us. Patrick is too often a supporting character in Brendon-related fics. (I'm deliberately not acknowledging his starring role some of the really bad Pete/Patrick fic that probably exists, but which I ignore.)

Yeah, I don't really do Pete/Patrick, but I want Brendon and Patrick to be the best of best friends.And there to be EPIC fic about it. They would dork out together! I think I was writing about Spencer as Brendon's college roommate and Patrick as his music TA, and eventually -- 100k later, probably -- they would all have been bffs. I can't remember how it was going to end.

*squeaks*

Like, Brendon would be SO BORED in whatever intro to composition class he was required to take? And Patrick doesn't mind teaching, but he does not like the fact that 19 of his 20 students are clearly there for an easy passing grade for the music/arts part of the general ed requirements, but he's excited when this term he has this dude who's actually talented, and into it, so discussion/studio sessions go much better than he ever remembers them being before?

Is he using his beer pitcher?

asimplechord December 13 2009, 19:08:54 UTC

He's got big glass carboys out and the monstrous stainless-steel boiler thing that was on that wire rack cooking out on the propane tank in the back yard, so there's a lot of running back and forth. After making breakfast this morning, I poured myself more coffee and moved my laptop out of the way. I think he's almost done now.

Icons, or no?

earlofcardigans December 13 2009, 20:01:48 UTC

That seems like a lot of work. I hope it's worth it.

And icons if you want.

Mmmm...beermakingggg...

Oh yeah - icons! :D

asimplechord December 13 2009, 21:26:20 UTC

I didn't even ask what he was making. We've got an imperial stout and something that tastes like dry cherry-flavored cider on tap (I have no idea what he was aiming for with the latter, maybe a cherry-wheat that got side-tracked without enough sugar?). But I'm sure I'll enjoy it when it's done. :D

Hm, well then:

i had some homemade beer once in my life. it was, like, hibiscus-themed? flavoured? idk. i think it was a lot stronger than normal beer, because i had 1.5 and was like HUH SO I AM KINDA TIPSY?? D:

also, i love hearing stories behind icons. *chinhands* except how you ruined all my dreams about how science really operates. :(

pick some of mine? :D? :D :D?

asimplechord December 13 2009, 23:33:00 UTC

I think the stuff we have on tap right now is ~10% alcohol? IDK, I get way drunk off far less than normal beer. But I'm not really involved in the making, other than getting the hell out of the way. Just the drinking. :D

I'm very sorry to have killed your science fantasies. :(
