Twenty twenty twenty-four hours to go, I wanna be sedated...

[caranfindel]

Hey, look, I'm doing that weekly post thingie again. What's happening this week?

I signed up for the spn_j2_bigbang earlier today and now I'm kind of regretting it because my story's going to be pretty close to the minimum count, and most of the other stories are RPF and/or very slashy and mine is just Supernatural and gen so no artist is going to be interested. Oh well. I can always illustrate my own fic. Plastic Winchester Theater, anyone?

Get in the car, Cas. We're gonna go get Sam out of Hell.

Speaking of plastic Winchesters, I added to my collection. I picked up a couple of the Funko Mystery Minis, where you can't see what you're buying. I ended up with Cas and Abaddon, which is awesome, but I'm afraid I'll have to keeping buying the damn things until I get Gabriel. Why Gabriel? I have no idea. I just wants him, my precious.

This was supposed to look like they're fighting but it looks more like they're fending off the paparazzi.

And in a little more than 24 hours I'll be watching a new Supernatural again. So, I've got that going for me. And I'm only lightly spoiled so far. Can I stay that way? It would be nice if I could just go to sleep and wake up at showtime tomorrow!

See you on the other side!

LOL at "this is not porn." If it helps at all, the last comment I got on AO3 was "this was hella confusing and not as funny as I'd hoped." XDD

I'll always write what I'm interested in, because ain't nobody got time for anything else. But I will also always wonder why other people aren't interested in what I'm interested in, haha. Both in terms of "okay, this is a legitimately popular thing that people actually like (e.g. Sam and Dean), UNLESS THEY'RE IN MY HANDSSSS" (haha) or "okay but why DON'T people like Rowena holding a conversation with 12 chickens????!!!"

Hypothetical example.

Maybe.

The last one I got on AO3 was "hey, I have no idea what just happened in this fic", so, we're all in the same boat. XD

We should make T shirts! XD Exclusive Club T Shirts.

LOL! Ao3 commenters, man. WTF? Hellooooo, symbolism or subtext, people? I guess some readers just want you to do all the work for them. There's a prescribed formula that most fics fall into, and the reason you and others like brightly_lit and kalliel are my favorite writers is that you DON'T follow it. But that commenter must just prefer the formula, and that's fine; there's PLENTY of fic out there for her. :-}

What is the point of a comment like any of the three we're talking about here? I mean, sometimes I wonder if they're all 15 (No offense to intelligent, thoughtful 15-year-olds intended). I need to quote the Simpsons here: do you ever think anything you DON'T say?

So, YEAH. We need T-shirts. It's a club I'm proud to be in...

OMG, THIS MAYBE-HYPOTHETICAL NEEDS TO BE REALITY. *reminds self to check kalliel's journal* Why would anyone not be interested in that, indeed? I am dead curious about these 12 chickens. <3

And I hear ya, too, about the popular turning into the unpopular in your hands... I definitely get that. and I get another thing, which is like, "ugh, I just crapped out this tropey nothing fic, it's probably been done 1,000 times before, and THIS is what people like? READ MY CAS/FARAMIR FIC." ;-)
