Fangirling and wine

May 15, 2011 14:06

Last night I rewatched Sherlock 1x02 and 1x03 with wanttobeatree over Skype (in follow-up to having watched 1x01 with each other last time we were together in meatspace) and we played drinking games and had delicious wine and tipsiness. It was actually a surprisingly close approximation of what it is like to watch stuff with her in person, except in person we ( Read more... )

I sort of feel this is a fandom where I want to read maybe three or four fics and then I'll be satisfied, so I won't be very surprised if that's the boat most people who would consider reccing me stuff are in. I'm great with recs of the stuff absolutely everyone's read, though. I was considering asking specifically for those fics. *g* Thanks!

Ha, oh man, cleaning up bookmarks. /o\ I really want to do some solid clean up work on my delicious (so many unbundled tags o____o) but it's so hard motivating myself to sit down and get on with it. I congratulate you on your persistance!

OI. You were the one with the spelling mistakes. I was the one with the laughing at your spelling mistakes.

YES, OKAY, I WILL COP TO THAT.

Woo, welcome to TSN fandom! I live here now, and have no intentions of leaving. It's wonderful. Though, I haven't seen much Mark/Sean around *cough*weirdo, Mark/Eduardo is where its at*cough* let me give you some of the fandom greats to start with #triestoconvertyou

You've just gotta read the fic where Wardo is turned into a plant I love it so much. Because it's awesome. I know it sounds weird, but it's awesome ok, trust me.

If you don't want fix it fic, there is a lot of awesome AU fic, where Mark/Eduardo manage to not fuck everything up. Truly excellent ones are The Bakery AU and the one where Eduardo is Mark's PA

You know what, I can't leave without giving you at least one reconciling fic. There are so many good ones! But yeah. Here's the one where Dustin's car reads out your Facebook news feed because it's lovely and hilarious and poignant all at once.

Screw it, also. Here's one where Mark and Eduardo wake up married in Vegas. Just because ( ... )

HI TSN FANDOM. *waves* I said earlier in the comments that I though this'd be a fandom when I read three or four fics before moving on, but I have already proven myself wrong on that. Apparently all I needed was a little nudge to see the Mark/Eduardo, and I have been trapped on AO3 exploring the Mark/Eduardo tag since then (I assume you will accept this as a valid excuse for my delay in replying to your comment? xD).

As such, I have already read the fic with the newsfeed car (OMG SO PERFECT I CAN'T EVEN), but I haven't read any of your other recs yet! \o/

I'm mildly hesitant about the AUs, because I'm usually not much one for AUs unless I'm really into a fandom, but.... *eyes them* I might be tempted. WE'LL SEE ( ... )

altogetherisi May 17 2011, 10:37:21 UTC

Aha, Mark and Eduardo's tragic love/bad romance claims another! Yesssssss. *fistpump* Ahem. It's a very comfortable place to be trapped I find. :D ( ... )

Oh man, I was up until 5 am the night before last reading the Vegas marriage fic, because I hadn't realised it was so long, and by the time I did I was TOTALLY ABSORBED. ♥__♥

I will probably end up reading those AUs (...once I've cleared all the other TSN fic in my tabs >__>) becuase clearly you have GOOD TASTE IN RECS.

I'm not really a writer, so probably not (even if I was, I'm not sure I could handle characters this complex). And, ha, I totally don't ship Mark/Sean romantically. xD It's more like I think Sean wants to make up for the way he feels he was treated when he was doing Napster by making Mark into the guy Sean wishes he'd been at the time (see: sending Mark in to say "Fuck you" to investors dressed in pyjamas and a dressing gown), and Mark enjoys the person Sean makes him feel like he is/can be. So what I'm interested in is two self-centred asshole characters in a relationship where what they get out of it is an idealised version of themselves, rather than genuinely feeling any deep affection for each other. What can I ( ... )

YAY. KStew is great. I first saw her in Speak, and thought she was pretty awesome, and then the second time I head about her it was to discover she'd been cast as Bella Swan. *facepalms* I can't say I'm a huge Twilight fan. (Although I have watched the first two films for KStew's sake.)

I'm not going to hold me breath on people providing me with awesome programming canon (although I will definitely let you know if someone does!), but I read this Leverage/Iron Man crossover a while back that may interest you? Link!

Yeah, I figure I'll probably give in and watch the rest of them eventually, but sometimes there is only so much badness I can take to get my fix of KStew's face. Luckily for me, the next film on my KStew to-watch list is The Runaways, which I am looking forward to way more.

You're welcome! :D I hope you enjoy it.
