Busier and more productive weekend than I'd thought I'd have, which was pretty awesome. Traipsed all the way out to the craft store with ali_wildgoose and then realized that the thing I thought I could get wasn't what people thought when I said it, and I actually needed something completely different, but I did still get floss and an awesome organizer for the ( Read more... )

*hugs* (Because I can!)

And I'm with you on the Cookleta, I mean I understand how people see it I suppose, that's just all brotherly vibe for me and it's sweet but yeah...no thanks on the fic.

I wish that I could watch shows with you guys :(

You'll have to let me know when that excellent Michael/David sequel updates! On which I need to comment but that means finding my damn insane journal login.

We wish it too! Damn Idol for being on mid week!

I love a man in baseball drag.

She updated with chapter two over the weekend I believe :D

Ugh, I'm sick of all those Cookleta fics too. I'm hoping they'll die out soon... I really don't see the appeal. I just can't seriously write Archuleta into anything, I don't think, so... it's just realy weird.

The Cookleta thing is entirely coming from external to the overall Idolslash fandom. It shows up all the time on fandom!secrets too. It's like, all these people who never wrote even RPS before, never mind Idol rps. And I can understand the really young girls who are writing it-that's so Archie as self-insertion. But the other folks, I completely don't understand at all!

Oh good old other david. Brilliant icon!

Hee <3 I wish I could say I made it, but I didn't D: Still, it was one of the only ones I could find of him so ^^;;

Oh well, I still love my less popular David -squeezeshim- Especially since he's not at the center of random Idol fics that are popping up all over the place. Eek.

Eeew, Cookleta stories? Really? That's gross & wrong on soooo many levels. *shudder*

jlh June 2 2008, 19:15:54 UTC

I don't get it, there's this whole thing where these people who haven't really been in Idolslash before, maybe not even into RPS, are flooding in with the Cookleta. And I can understand the really young girls who are writing it-that's so Archie as self-insertion. But the other folks, I completely don't understand at all! If I were writing singerslash this year it would be among Cook/Johns/Castro, but not Archuleta.

He's like the most nonsexual AI contestant since Kovais. I don't mean that in a bad way because he's just a kid. And because of his career and father he's even more immature than most seventeen year olds.

It reminds me of when people wrote Clay/Ryan fics every day for like a year. Bleh.

Well, and they just updated the memories section and there are over 500 Clyan entries! Insane. Anything else you can't judge, as most of the singerslash ships have their own comms, but it does make me sad (again) that there's more clyan than rymon. Oh Rymon, everyone ships you and no one writes you.

honestys_easy June 2 2008, 20:09:02 UTC

I don't even have idolslash on my flist because it's just...ehhh, I don't know, rather a crapshoot when looking for well-written fics and half the stuff I wouldn't care to read, even before the recent Cookleta outbreak (Danny/anyone...yeah, no.) There are all these people shipping it and I just want to shake them about it; I'm all for making mountains out of molehills but the Davids are far too brotherly to be seen any other way by me. (Though after this fic is done I'm thinking of writing a little transition drabble about Ryan and Simon in the past going through interviewees for the Cake Shop and Ryan picking out Blake while Simon picks Cook. This is what I think of in my free time ( ... )

jlh June 3 2008, 00:58:59 UTC

If you wrote that I would love you long time. I'm not proud. I will whore out for Rymon and yours would be well-written and likely hilarious.

My SYTYCD ff'ing priority list:

Dance Intro = fuck yes
Dance for your life = awesome
Actual results = why we're watching
Recap = got it the first time
Musical guest = lame

Maybe Travis will choreograph to Blake and the space-time continuum will collapse in on itself.

Veda always cares.
