Thanks for all the fish.

Which Voyager Fay? Was it the prision episode? The Chute ?

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Yep. I'm still at a loss to think of an interpretation other than "I'm making him my bitch" for the nasty prisoner's attempt to cart Harry away when he first arrived.

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

(Hi Fay! t waves hand madly )

Hmmmm. I should probably write some fanfiction. Kinda gone dry lately.

But apropros of that, anybody have recs lately? Most any fandom, though I got to watch some Stargate the day before yesterday, and now I'm jonesing for it.

Oh, Fay, that is the slashiest episode. Did you notice the way that Tom and Harry fell asleep holding hands? Awww. Sure, Tom was delirious at the time....

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Okay, so now I understand the temptation to write. It is intoxicating.

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

I need an intervention.

I broke 12,000 words on Part 2 of the DE (which has a name, but which I still think of as either the DE or FutureFicEvilBunnies, which was the file name for the longest time).

I'm almost done writing the Lilah I started in May.

Even Route 66 is going rather well.

So why am I reading AU Badfic instead of writing? Of the Spuffy and Child WIP kind? Please, slap me.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

I am horrified and transfixed, but I'm reading Audrey Lemon's (she of the How Slash Saved Me article) Lost Boys series. I need to see this movie. I need to read every good Lost Boys story out there, as much as it deeply scares me.

Link?

I liked the movie a lot at 13. I don't think I've seen it since.

But, anything to stop me from reading the Buffy/Spike/Precious Infant tale.

Haven't any of these people been around children?

Or been pregnant?

For one thing, if you've missed more than one period, or you're more than a little late, the extra line almost always shows up the second it gets wet. You're really, really unlikely to have to wait for first morning urine. Today's tests are insanely sensitive.

For another thing... most five year olds speak in semi-articulate sentences. Mind, they're normally saying things like "That's nice, I wanna watch Pokeman again, how do I rewind?" or "Can I play Sega?", but they're not baby talking at that age.

Sorry. I shouldn't be ranting this much over a premise this bad.

PMM, [link]

I'm seriously getting frantically upset at how much I like this.

Thrive to spite them

Liz, you have to get your hands on The Lost Boys. Man, I loved that movie. Not only did it have both Coreys in it (Corey Haim and Corey Feldman---who at the time were "teen idols") but it had Jason Patrick (he plays the older brother, Corey Haim plays the younger brother) but it had VAMPIRES!!! Sweet! Not only that but I had the novelisation of the movie (which I liked better because the vampires were freakier) AND I had the soundtrack.

It was, easily to say, one of the defining movies of my teenage years. Also, there was a movie...a craptastic movie about a skateboarder that I watched over and over and over with my bestfriend (from middle school) because the guy in it was SO HOT. Plus skateboarding was really "in" but only with the alternative and "bad" boys. Not to mention the guy I had a crush on and the guy my bestfriend had a crush on were skaters. So it was all kinds of wishfufillment going on there.

Oh! And I was so very Mary Sueish in my head about the Lost Boys. I never wrote anything I thought up down, but trust me, if I had, it would have been incredibly bad Mary Sue fanfiction.
