The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

See? Good can come of all of this.

It may have to wait. There are two other Sports Night stories in progress at the moment.

But I want Dannyfic.

Oh, please. Like Casey could have a conversation about cake with someone other than Danny, and NOT be committed to a mental institution?

Shrift, speaking of fic (sort of), I got a note from Max. Tomorrow's her birthday and she may be crashing with us on Saturday night. If she can get away.

So, yay.

Also, no press conference: postponed indefinitely, according to Red. Haven't a clue why.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Regarding the vids..."Peacekeeper"? May I ask who the song's by?(if its the song I think it is, I've been waiting for someone to do a Farscape vid to it since I first heard it.)

Sheryl, there is a vid to Fleetwood Mac's "Peacekeeper", but I don't think it's particularly fabulous. You can find it up at FarscapeFantasy in the music video section.

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

b) doing whatever you want, depending on what "whatever" is, comes with certain ramifications that you have to accept, which may include someone yelling at you, someone sending you a C&D, or someone showing your fic to a random and startled actor
(Parenthetically: I don't think showing fic to actors is OK, no matter the subject. Because the fic is never "Willow eats a sandwich and thinks about whether she should buy a red sweater" or, you know, something plotty and not too far from canon. It's chosen with the intent of shocking the actor; and that's just, you know, rude. Has there ever been a case in which the fan-made materials handed to the actor has been seriously *not* with a freak-you-out intention, barring that Firefly-vids CD which seemed to be just done out of amazing sheer naïveté?)

Your Cake Is Not My Cake. You Are Welcome to Think My Cake Has Crack in It.

Our Cakes May Coexist Peacefully, Provided That Neither of Us Forces the Other to Eat It, Too.

I'd COMM this whole cake bit if I weren't so dead-ass lazy.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Sheryl, "Peacekeeper" is a Buffy vid by sisabet, set to the Fleetwood Mac song of the same name. You can find it here.

That vid made me like "Chosen".

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

Kinda glad I didn't get in on this discussion, though I did want to note that, as a popslash writer,

They might as well have been original fictional characters as far as I was concerned.

this is very true for me about the people I write about.
