I'm going to bed soon. Now. Soon. Very soon. This isn't even late for me (3:45), and I slept for 11 hours yesterday, how on earth am I so tired? Gah!

I've got stress on all sides, and I really need to just write some of it out of my head so it stops swirling around up there... possibly not just now though, when I'm practically propping my head up against the wall to keep my head up.

I am still irked because I spent most of the day reading a 27 part Supernatural fic... really, really good, plotty genfic, which is one of the best things about the SPN fandom. I'm all over the slash, het, RPS and Wincest, whatever, doesn't matter, but good GOD, SPN can bring the good gen (this, btw? Not the part that has me irked). I get to part 27, and only then somehow realize that it's a WIP.

I am ALLERGIC to WIP's! Unless I know the author really well or have been following them long enough to trust that they will finish writing the thing, I am just NO. I got burned so many times in LOTRiPS that I finally learned my lesson and gave them up, if only to keep my brain from melting when they get abandoned. And this one's been IP for over a year, so I am now terribly fretful because it's GOOD. This is gonna bug the hell out of me.

Oh god, so tired. Sleeping now.

ETA: The story is In Reverse, by sodakey, and I do really highly recommend it... it's got great characterization, and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it all of yesterday... I just want to know what happens NOW! *weeps*. I do not handle cliffhanger moments well at all.

I've been a really horrible reader in the past few months, and I've always been bad at feedback, so today I'm actually going to try and get back into it, at least a little. It was tough for me to decide what to repost, since almost everything darknight999 and I write is an arc and considerably more than one part, but I picked The other side of want - the poetry arc.

Fanfic Review Day

I'm sure that anyone who's ever posted fanfiction to Livejournal will know just how great it feels to read comments from other users (and how depressing it can be if no one comments). I also know that I don't review other people's fanfiction half as much as I really ought to. So to make up for that, on Sunday I'm going to try and post a review for every piece of fanfiction I read on Livejournal (and I plan to read a lot). Why not do the same, and let other writers know their efforts are worth it?

Writers, why not take the opportunity to re-post a story you think slipped under people's radars the first time around?

Copy and paste to your own journal if you intend to take part.

So- Jess and I have finished up our Marton/Orlando arc. All previous chapters are indexed here: Better than any high

While we were at it, we wrote a Viggo/Karl one shot, with a strictly pants-on cameo from Dennis Hopper *hangs head* We are sick, sick people. So... if you wanna read it- here it is: At the beep.

*snugs Jess, skitters off to post more stuffs*

Umm... *scuffs shoe in the dirt* Remember how I said I wasn't going to write RPS any more after Jess and I finished the last one?

I lied.

The Other Side of Want

All warnings, etc. on the top of the page!

And oh- for those who read last time? It's a different story, but...

Dennis is back. *hides in fear*

Okay- so that thing that Jess (darknight999) and I wrote that was just going to be a one shot, and then we wrote the sequel, but that wasn't enough, so we had to keep going?

Parts three and four are posted on Jess's journal. And there's another *mumble* part(s) coming. *headdesk* Bloody Enabler.

Either way, here be the links:

Part three: Be Subtle

Part four: Eyes Wide Shut

And, just in case you missed the first few:

Part one: Nobody's quite like you

Part two: Clueless

*snuggles hella Jess*

So... darknight999 is evil. It's not like anyone who knows her will be surprised by this information- but yes, she is, in fact evil. Also tricksy. Adorable as all hell, but still. The darling wench talked me into co-writing a RPS challenge fic with her when I do not write outside of my happy, safe little role playing game world.

But I'd do damn near anything for that one. So here it is- Karl/Viggo, written for the lotrpschallenge Challenge 33 - Tattoos.

Nobody's quite like you

*eta- hokay- 'pparantly we broke the rules, and you're not allowed to cowrite fic for challenges *sighs*. Still- we wrote it and it was fun, so read it anyway.
