Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

In reverse order:

1) You hair is fine.

2) You are not a freak. You are a geek, scary smart, and a very funny writer, but you are not a freak.

3) Continuing with the fine writer meme, even before I reading it I know it will be funny. Heck you made me appreciate Entourage. If the person you are writing for doesn't appreciate that will be a due to flaws in her taste, not your writing.

Always Anti-fascist!

Well, considering you've never seen all the gorgeous extras, number three is probably a point in my favor, as I can't just say it's all the tits.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Okay, the Official Yuletide Polar Bears of OMGWTFBBQ are officially circling. And they look hungry.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I can sympathize. I did not sign up, but somewhere along the line I picked up a pinch hit. I'm starting to wonder why I did this.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Hungry, hungry bears!

I don't need plot, right?

Ugh, I seem to have plot whether I like it or not. Also, research. Also, I am snowed in at a different house than 4/5 of my source material. AUGH.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

You guys have all my sympathy. I just posted my fic for the Kirk/McCoy advent community on LJ. 17,000 words since Nov. 30th. I didn't think I had it in me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

This is not something I can consume at work, but it is described thusly:

If there's one thing that this year's Star Trek reboot was missing, it was Zachary Quinto reading graphic Kirk/Spock slash. [...]

Thanks to re-editing Quinto's audiobook version of the movie novelization, the internet now has Spork:

I had to make note of it somewhere.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

That worked surprisingly well.

Wow. That was totally traumatic. For some reason, ZQ's voice makes it too much for me to handle.

Very well executed, though. Very well. I can't imagine the amount of attention to detail it took to do that recutting.
