ABD, y'all.

Apr 22, 2008 17:30

I had the oral portion of my quals today. I am now ABD.

To celebrate, the meme that I was planning to do last weekend before I got busy: Post a comment about a story that I have never written ("Hey, I loved that AU where Babs was an assassin!" "Man. It doesn't get better than Rex the Wonder Dog as the new Robin."). I'll do my best to give you ( Read more... )

I dunno, Dude! Your Mike Harmon sex-change epic made me *worry* about you.

Rex mounted the steps at the back of the villa. He was still sore from the beating he'd been given earlier, when he'd failed their command and only bitten the slave girl, not ripped her to shreds. The pain wasn't new. He'd been beaten before, and worse, and harder. But not since -- not since the Kildar. The Kildar would take pride in that; and the others at the caravanserai would think Rex should be grateful. Had the Kildar not rescued them from the brothels from which they were destined? Did not he give them clothes, and rooms of their own, and catalogs from which to shop? He was, in truth, the finest man to ever own a whore, a girl, a dog. Truly, Rex knew how much the Kildar was owed. And some day, he meant to pay him in full.

Rex stayed with the girls in the harem by day, and accompanied them to the Kildar's door. The Kildar almost never let Rex in, and he never, ever let Rex stay in the room afterwards, when the Kildar slept. They knew each other too well for that.

Damn you for making this sound interesting.

You *don't* want to see Rex on the berserker drug. I'm just saying.

... You realize of course what you're opening yourself up to with this.

And CONGRATULATIONS. I have a tentative defense date for the MA in May. Still no signs of a PhD program though.

Hmm.... Let me think about this for a while.

Congratulations!

I've always loved your story about Londo and G'Kar and the time they woke up naked and hung over together.

(In all seriousness, I'd love to see what you would do with those two characters in a serious story, but I don't think that would fit what you're looking for, somehow.)

Oh, oh my. That packs an awful lot of punch for something so short.

Thank you.

That was always my favorite of Londo's lines from the show: "There comes a time when you look into the mirror and you realize that what you see is all that you will ever be. Then you accept it. Or you kill yourself. ...or you stop looking into mirrors."

I adore the story where Babs and Tim watch porn together and then have particularly Babs/Tim sex.

No, not the canon, the story you wrote.

The large array of screens was on when Tim swung by the clocktower. Barbara was away from her desktop, and it was strange to see her not there and her wheelchair empty. She was leaning back on the couch, her hands steepled under her chin, and watching the displays intently. The screens flickered from large views to small, fights to surveillance cameras to what looked suspiciously like a heads-up screen from NORAD to ( ... )

This deserves my Babs in her Glory icon. It's not even PG and it perfectly fits the prompt, Babs, Tim, that whole Batfamily wonderfulness.

Yay!

I have realized that I am an absolute *sucker* for Tim/Babs, but only if they have brainsex. Betty and I were chatting about the pairing, and she noted that if they ever did sleep together, they would do it once, it would be very very awkward, and then they'd really not be comfortable with each other afterwards.

Oddly, my OTPs are not so much me just wanting to smoosh them together as me loving that character dynamic and wanting to see more of it. ...possibly by smooshing them together.
