  So we drove up yesterday to pick V up from her two weeks of sleepaway camp - it's a yearly summer tradition, involving the whole Family in the car, and a trip to the Outlet Malls nearby, and dinner at this one Chinese food place that we only ever eat at two times a year (on the way to drop people off, and on the way to pick them up). Yeah, it's

*bounces up* I KEN DO ZAT!!!!!!!!!!! *flounders to front of queueue* Move move move! I KEN DO ZAT!!!

*G* Shall I pm you my email?

[reena_jenkins]

Wow with the enthusiasm....

I'm actually currently trying to copy-past-spellcheck each individual text into Word right now - gimme another 15 minutes or so, and I could just PM you the whole thing? There's only a few paragraphs of Raven-character-study-ish fic, so it shouldn't be too bad.

It was just....so WEIRD, to have the urge to write while I was in the car. I NEVER write fic. I read it! ;-)

Reading is where it STARTS, bb. It's the gateway to fandom. And then you start WRITING, and staying up way too late in chatrooms, and then you spend a morning anxiously cleaning a kitchen while trying to figure out your stbb, and--

...

Yes I'll read your fic.

Thanks for taking a look - I'm all flustered and flattered to see so many capslock moments. I've been thinking about where to go from what I've got....but Ikeep getting distracted by all the other awesome XMFC fic floating around....and that makes me not want to write my own, because, well - look at all the other awesome, y'know? ;-)

[reena_jenkins]

I am so much more a fic-reader, or a fic-idea-er, and hardly ever a fic-writer...so, I really have no idea exactly why I felt such a strong urge to text it to myself, you know?

Actually, I just watched the cartoon "Alpha & Omega" with Littlest Sis, and the whole time I was watching with her, I was thinking, "This is either a fic I've already read, or a fic that needs to be written right now. 'Cause Jared's the "fun-loving omega", and Jensen's the "serious alpha", and they have to overcome odds to be together, and Tom and Mike can be the two gay geese!"

But, I'm pretty sure Littlest Sis did not appreciate my insights. She mostly just rolled her eyes a lot, every time I squeed.

"That was okay...but it would be 1000x better as if someone reworked it as a J2 AU."
YES. This, exactly!

And, sure, I'd be up for it. That sounds like a great idea. For, like, story prompts that aren't necessarily kink-meme-only fills...and for murdering tossing around plot bunnies... Yeah, I'd be up for helping out with something like that, I think. Let me know what you need on my end ;-)

.........Also, are you signed up for multipodicity? 'Cause you should be, hinthinthint.

ME ME ME, I WILL TOTES READ ANYTHING YOU WRITE, yisssss }:D

...plus, I'm pretty sure it was you I showed that totally self-indulgent "John Sheppard Works at Pier 1" fic, so I like, owe you. Or something. XD

(ALSO: true story--I once sent out a mass text that read "Having shite night at work. Will love you forever if you text me X-Men porn." So, if you ever feel the urge to write text-fic again and would like someone to text it to besides yourself? YOU CAN TOTALLY TEXT ME FIC. You know. IF YOU WANT.)

[reena_jenkins]

Okay, so the two paragraphs I tried to send you via PM this morning? Took me over 45 minutes to type, because Firefox kept freezing on me. As in, I would type seven letters, and then get the Rainbow Wheel Of Death. For, like, ten-minute stretches at a time. Arrrrrgh!

Anyway, that mass-text you mentioned? My first thought was, "But, Mom! What if I sent that to Mom? Eeep!" Seriously - we were at the pool today, and E and I had to explain to her exactly what 'crabs' were....and not the hermit kind. I can't imagine accidentally asking her for porn. *shudders*

[reena_jenkins]

Oh. Wait. Nevermind. That PM never got sent.

Let me go retry......

[bessyboo]

LAME, FIREFOX, BAD SHOW >:\

AND I HAVE NOW REPLIED TO YOUR PM, BECAUSE. YES. YES. *flails* *points to PM* *flails more*

Hahahaha, I actually just filtered out my "Family" and "Work" contact groups for it, so that wasn't a problem ;) And LOLOLOL forever at explaining crabs to your MOM, haha! My mom and I tend more towards having discussions about things like "Asexuality: legitimate orientation or undiagnosed medical condition?", so, yeah. (...my mom is a social worker. XD) She knows all about my slashy tendencies, so I think she'd kind of just be like, "good luck with that, sweetie! oh, are you free to see Harry Potter on Thursday?" lol moms.
