Sobbing and Snuggling with Strangers

[takadainmate]

Desperately looking through a handful of old memory sticks in search of a Merlin fic I want to revive I had the very great joy of finding some truly glorious unfinished fic; some of it so bad I wanted to laugh, some of it fic I'd completely forgotten I'd ever written. A lot of few-line beginnings of fics that never got any further. I wanted to

Haha, dead manhoods will do that to you...

That's given me my fandom laugh of the day.

Glad to provide. And I thank my younger self for the joy I have brought myself today. :D

*Ears prick up like a hound* Merlin? More Merlin fic? Is this the one with the winter creature and something about Merlin's father? Am I remembering that right? I had given up on you finishing that story, it happens. I find things very hard to end too, I have lots of half-written or just begun fics.

I would be delighted to get more Merlin fic from you, whatever it is. Is there some bribe in cookies, green tea, cheerleading, ice cream, old men, or plain old money that I can offer?

You're thinking of the Krampus fic, I think, but that wasn't the one I was looking for. I've not been keen on writing lately so it's been hard, and I really am terrible at finishing anything before I get sidetracked with a new and shiny idea, but I am trying! I just need constant harassing and cajoling to do anything. XD

My internet connection is erratic, I hope this reply posts this time.

Yes, it was Krampus, but that's OK. Any Merlin fic from you is good, though my favourite is still Conversations. Anyway, do you need harassing and cajoling? Because I can be really irritating at nagging people. I just need to find someone to do the same for me for my two Moonridge storie s and my ridiculously long Charles/Erik story. Let me know if you want to be bothered, otherwise I'll just wait quietly and reread.

Reading old unfinished fanfics is so 8D And :( for me at the same time. I still have my old doc files and, a few days ago, felt like finishing a 10 year old fic. After reading it though, I was bug-eyed and wondering if it would even be possible to conclude such a long and convoluted fic whose plotlines I don't even understand anymore :(

But do want...

Also.... TACTICS ;3;!!

The Egypt fic is fun!!

I believe the Skeletor/Robin Hood fic is what got you on the gov't's watch list.
