1) I have settled on a tattoo design, but I'm going to wait until I get back from Florida to have it done, because there's going to be a pool and hot tub at the house where we're staying (as well as the pool at my parents' house) and you're not supposed to swim for three months after you get fresh ink. If I get it done right after we get home I'll

as to #4? you're not the last person. ::raises hand:: Hey, I just read Harry Potter...and still haven't read the last one! I got a kindle and it has made reading so much easier tho i miss the feeling of a real book in my hand.

Someday I will be well-read. It may be just before my 100 birthday but I will be well-read!

Fandom for me still revolves around very few pairings. I'm loyal like that. So you know I must ask for Nick/Greg. I'm not really interested in canon because I see one or two episodes a season but in my world they're still together. Greg has become the author and celebrity that he's wanted to be all along. Nick is still our crimestopper without cape or super powers. Considering he's been passed over for running things when Catherine left I have to believe he's feeling a little over looked. Maybe a little resentful. Maybe ready for a change.

Since I've already written fandom here in my comment I suppose I shouldn't expect more but you know I do!

The novel is moving slowly but it is at least moving again

So I actually managed to track down Touching Evil! Unfortunately I haven't managed to watch very much (life, getting in the way of all the fun things I want to do), but still. Thus in the spirit of that,
prompt = Creegan/Rivers, sucess

[pterawaters]

Sweet tattoo design. Just the right amount of abstract, I think. :)

As for a prompt, if you're no longer doing Puckurt, would you write Puck/Finn? Even just a broship. I kind of want to know what happens after everyone graduates and leaves Lima and they ... don't.

I hadn't even heard of the Hunger Games until maybe a month ago. Ever since I got into fandom, I barely read anything actually published. It's sad. I wonder if my library card misses me.

Hmm, well you didn't miss much on Glee (and the ending was pretty messed up IMO). But all the Glee girls' hair looked very nice this episode! ^_^

Actually, I've never read Hunger Games either, but that's because I have a bit of a low tolerance for post-apocalypse-survival-of-the-fittest-under-totalitarian-rule kind of themes.

I've been feeling less inclined toward Kurt/Puck too...although it's mainly cause in my head they're already together, and it's the show that has it wrong. :)

[carolinecrane]

I skipped The Hunger Games for the same reason as yourself, but my nephew (he's 17) wants to see the movie, and it premieres while we're on a family vacation in Florida, so I figured I'd read the book before I went with him. It was okay, but you were right to skip it, I think.

[moonsong42]

Ah, that "life" thing that gets in the way of the internet. I...still haven't read the Hunger Games, but I've also managed to avoid Star Wars Eps 1-3, so I might not be the best one to talk.

Well, back in the day, I loved your website for the rare pairings, so, if you feel like it, a snippet from Suicide Kings (Avery/Brett), Sky High (Warren/Will), or My Bodyguard (young Adam Baldwin!!!!...sorry, I'm okay) would be awesome. And if not, then not. =)

[carolinecrane]

Here is a little My Bodyguard pre-slash for you. Sorry it's kind of lame! In two parts because I'm over by like 300 characters. Stupid comment limits.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“I think Shelley likes you.”

Clifford appears out of nowhere, just like he does every day after school -- and after most of the classes they don’t share -- talking like he’s picking up a conversation they started hours ago. Only Ricky doesn’t remember talking about Shelley or anybody else today, and he doesn’t really want to talk about her now.

Ricky doesn’t answer. Instead he grunts and swings his locker shut, letting the metal clang as he turns on his heel and heads down the hall. Clifford’s right behind him, taking two steps for each of Ricky’s and breathing a little heavier by the time they reach the front door. But he’s still talking, like he really thinks Ricky cares what Shelley thinks about anything. Or maybe Clifford cares what Shelley thinks, and that’s something else Ricky doesn’t really want to think about

Part Two

[carolinecrane]

Clifford laughs and lets Ricky pull him back onto the path, following the bikes toward the lake where their friends are probably waiting at their usual table. For awhile neither of them says anything, and Ricky knows he could just let it drop and Clifford would let him. That’s what he should do, and that’s what he tells himself even while he’s opening his mouth to say, “So you think I’m great, huh?”

He steals a glance in Clifford’s direction, watches the way Clifford smiles and kind of ducks his head. Shy, for the first time ever, maybe, then Clifford’s shoulder bumps Ricky’s bicep and he grins up at Ricky. “Yeah, you’re all right. Shelley could do worse.”

“Not interested,” Ricky says, but before Clifford gets a chance to ask who he is interested in, they reach the table where Carson and Shelley and that dark-haired friend of hers are sitting. Shelley grins up at him, but Ricky ignores her and shoves Carson over to make room for him and Clifford on the bench

Re: Part Two

[jengeorge]

Oh yes! I didn't even know I needed Ricky/Clifford today until I read this and now my day feels complete! Oh, Clifford, you poor clueless sot! Ricky loves you too. I just rewatched the movie last week while reorganizing my Halloween stuff.
