You're a Buffista, Cass--there's always room in the pedantic corner. *g*

Thrive to spite them

I seem to have gone from thinking about Eureka and the timeline issues to starting to write a story about Henry and the month that we didn't see and more insight into what his plans are/what he experienced.

So far it's all just ideas and I need to watch the first season (which I'm buying today) but I'm starting to get down my ideas and the points I want to hit on the story.

Would anyone be willing to act as my sounding board while I'm trying to work out how the time lines would work and plausible simliarites/differences between them?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Allie, I can beta on characterization/tone, but I haven't seen season one so I'd be of little help with the logistics of the the plot.

Thrive to spite them

Thanks! Right now I've got to get my handwritten notes typed up, I don't have much actually writing done (hard to do when I'm supposed to be writing) but I can email you the outline of what I have.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I posted this a while back in my LJ, but got no help. Looking for a fic, set early in Faith, after the "I'm gonna die, and you can't stop it." "Watch me." scene, and before Dean shows up at Sam's motel room. It's of the day and a half Dean was in the hospital before he checked out AMA and bolted. I don't recall either title or author, but I think it's not more than two or three months old, definitely posted before the summer_gen flurry. Any help? Anybody?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

LJ is doing the most impressive job of digging themselves into a hole that I've seen since...the last time they dug themselves into a hole.

Edit: I haven't read the whole thread, but someone has brought up the possibility that some asshole might comment to the whole thing with HP7 spoilers. Tread carefully.

LJ is doing the most impressive job of digging themselves into a hole that I've seen since...the last time they dug themselves into a hole.

I am clutching my head and wondering if they, like, make these decisions during Happy Hour and then celebrate their genius with more drinks, and make the announcement the next day when they're too hungover to remember that perhaps they should run things by an actual lawyer.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Oh fer ... Were they just beat too hard with the stupid stick?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

This person seems to have the right of it:

I'll say something more cogent and less plain ol's snarky later, but I simply must point out the hilarity of the following, just to make sure I've got a thorough grasp of the situation:

a) a not particularly clear or precise clarficiation (I understand an entirely clear or precise one is probably impossible both in general and certainly from LJ at this point)
b) that's of very direct concern to fandom as a whole
c) less than 36 hours before Potterdammerung

and

d) you think the Internet isn't about to explode all over you?

WOW.

For the win. Really.

No spoilers that I've seen in the first couple of pages.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I like LJ a lot, but the folks who run it are occasionally delusional.
