Writer's Block: GIP (Gratuitous Icon Post)

Mar 30, 2009 12:20

The moment Craig Dean stepped out onto that tarmac to the tune of Dayvan Cowboy on the 1st of September 2008 sent shivers down my spine as I watched the moment I'd been waiting for for three months; an event so joyous that much of the day was spent giggling into my shirt sleeves and making cryptic notes detailing how I wanted it to happen whilst ( Read more... )

WOMAN, YOU ARE SCARING ME! Which song was I listening to when I noticed this entry? DAVYAN COWBOY! :O

Craig's return was so good, and I'm glad you decided to take the icon back because it's lovely.
Craig Dean is so much love. Therefore, using a Craig Dean icon is ALWAYS relevant! ;)

Besides, deleting that icon would mean that our icon romance would come to an end, hee... *uses appropriate icon*

I think I jumped off the sofa in joy when I saw it, and I watched it on E4+1, and then on C4+1 then next day - FOUR TIMES OVERALL. AND IT WAS GROOVY AND OMG I LOVED IT AND GUH *never woke up from that*

I still can't listen to Dayvan Cowboy because of that - the topped skipped songs in my iTunes are that and Can't Stop This Feeling I've Got ;P omg, you are gonna love those things I linked in your newest post XD

I never saw the "Craig Dean is an asshole" stuff, I think I was just blinded by how "OMG GUH" he was. The only time I can't hate him more is when he denies what happened with JP at the SU: "I haven't been round to yours in ages", and even then it's kind of justified in his confusion. And then he comes back, and it's all so REAL. I mean, I'd never seen Craig Dean on my screen and understood it all, and then to see him there, in sort-of-REAL-LIFE, and he's there and ON MY TV IN MY HOUSE and everything IN SHIRTS WITH CHEST AND HOTNESS. My, you can't imagine the GUH.

Our "icon romance" lol. Love it! I really do, actually.

Hee, that's adorable! I so want to watch it on tv (Craig and JP on a real big screen, yum!).
Emotion overload, huh? I listen to that song a bit too much, I think, as well as I Can't Stop This Feeling I've Got, but I still get overwhelmed with emotions. However, I can't bear to listen to I Close My Eyes And Count To Ten*is not obsessed with the McDean music and is so not abusing the McDean Fans iPod at all ( ... )

I LOVE that icon and approve entirely your keeping it around. GOD, I have watched and rewatched that bit a billionty times. CRAAAAAAIG!

glitterfairy25 March 30 2009, 16:00:28 UTC

oooh yay *feels special* I'm rather fond of it too. It's all Craigy and yum :D

I daren't watch it too much because the whole thing pretty much renders me incapable of speech for several hours afterwards. I was so unbelievably squeeful the first time, it's not even funny.

Hey, I've been meaning to ask you, are you thinking of writing any fic or anything?

catwalksalone March 30 2009, 17:00:04 UTC

Aww, I totally understand your speech incapability.

There is fic underway. Remember that precis of what happened to the guys after the SE that I mentioned when we met at fandomsecrets? Yeah, airinshaw and I are co-writing that - it's like a journey through our personal canon! At this point it's almost 10000 words. O_o We're hoping it won't be too long until we're done.

catwalksalone March 30 2009, 17:00:30 UTC

Let's pretend I posted that in the right place, shall we? *sigh*

glitterfairy25 March 30 2009, 17:08:07 UTC

lol. It's alright, it's Monday - that's excuse enough :P

I make it vague because in my opinion, much of the fic written in this fandom is extremely poor. There's not enough goodfic around, and I reckon that needs rectifying. About 90% of all fic gets posted on a forum, an idea which I really really don't like, especially after I've got used to the meticulous organisation of fics and other fandom stuff here on LJ. I want to start some sort of McDean fic archive on LJ. Except I need followers and fans and posters and mods and betas and stuff. I wondered if you and your little bubble of literate McDeaners would help me get that sorted?

Yeah, demanding Lj-er demands a lot, sorry.

catwalksalone March 30 2009, 18:30:47 UTC

Sounds like a good idea to me. Central organisation/archiving is a good thing ( ... )
