Welcome to the special hell.

We have cake.

11/14/09 10:38 pm

So, uh. I just watched Twilight. Don't judge me. It was on, it was free, and I was really bored. I just wanted to see what all the fuss was about. The worst part? It was actually pretty good, apart from how seriously disturbing it was. I think that as long as I pretend to myself that Smeyer meant their relationship to be as fucked up as it actually is, I could get into it; I like disfunctional relationships. See my OTP.

I own't read the books, though, just watch the movies. I've read extracts, and the purple prose and repetition are just way too much.

What I really want now, though, is fic about how Bella became the kind of person who thinks that this kind of relationship is healthy. Yeah, she's a teenager - very much so - and she's melodramatic and convinced that she knows everything, and she thinks vampires are romantic. Lots of women think vampires are romantic. Hell, I have a vampire kink, possibly related to my disfunctional relationships kink. This, though? This crosses a line. This crosses many lines. Her obsession with him is as deep as his obsession with her, and I get why Edward's fucked in the head - being seventeen for a hundred years will do that to you - but Bella?

I'd write it if I thought I could pull it off, but I know I can't. There's got to be something like that out there, though, right? It's a huge fandom, there has to be at least one person who likes it for the same reasons as me.

Fandom: Fringe
Title: The Nature of Friendship
Rating: PG for very vague mentions of violence
Characters/Pairings: Charlie, Olivia gen
Summary: Olivia's going through a lot right now, and doesn't have time to be a great friend. Charlie gets it. Really.

So I've been watching Fringe, and loving it. It's smart and interesting, and has characters I love, especially Olivia the ass-kicking FBI agent and Walter the actual really for real Mad Scientist. (The only thing that annoys me is Astrid, who doesn't seem to have any reason for existing, but whatever. Let's not talk about that.)

So, having been thoroughly corrupted by fandom, I start asking myself which male characters I ship with each other. And then I realise that I don't. OK, fine, there's a few fandoms I don't slash anyone in. so I start thinking which of the guys I ship Olivia with, because although I don't tend to read het fanfic there are het ships I like on the show itself, but although I like her friendship with Charlie and I'm warming up to Peter as a person I don't have any het ships either. Instead, I have possibly my first ever femslash ships. Plural. Olivia/Nina, which is awesome in a dysfunctional, eye-fucky, almost-but-not-quite FoeYay way, and Olivia/Rachel, her sister, because normal, healthy ships are boring.

Just in case anyone is curious about Nightingale's Cage (my go, that's a terrible title. WTF was I thinking?) and thinks to check here, I'm going on holiday for the next fortnight, as of this evening. I tried to get the next bit out before we left, but it's not happening.

Oh, and I kept forgetting to post it to my journal - I don't really use it much - so here's a link to the last instalment on mylar_fic.

I just got Final Fantasy X. I was kind of hoping I'd hate it, because everything I hear about the fandom makes me want to run screaming, but even though it was boring at first I'm starting to get into it now. Oh well. It can't be all bad, can it?

I'll poke around and hope to find some nice parts of the fandom sooner or later, but not until I can stop calling Tidus "Cloud" and Yuna "Rinoa", and stop being confused that Rikku is a girl.

I am officially the mod of my own community, [info]thoughtson_yaoi . It's a place for people to discuss... well, their thoughts on yaoi (and yuri, slash, femslesh etc.). Here's hoping it catches on. Uh. I think that's what I'm hoping, anyway. Like most things, modding is probably a lot harder than it looks.

3/24/09 06:38 pm - I have a speech.


It came to me last night just as I was dropping off. Damn you, muse! It's Rodney's. I'm not sure what sparked it, but I assume John just corrected a mistake in Rodney's math or something. It goes like this:

3/10/09 10:14 pm - All pokemon of one type have the same personality, y'know. Just like animals and people.

I'm a tiny, psychic bird, apparantly. What kind of pokemon are you?

I went horseriding today for the first time since before christmas. PAIN. Lots of pain. And it's only going to be worse tomorrow. Thank god I don't have to actually move or do anything until tuesday; even then, I may have to bring a cushion to college with me. Ow.

We stopped in to see my sister and the kids on the way back, too, which, as much as I love them, was probably a bad idea. They wanted to play with me. This involved more moving. I ended up pretending to be a zombie so that I could chase them very, very slowly.

Bless them, they didn't want to let me leave. Even Daniel, who usually barely acknowledges my existance, hugged me, took me upstairs to see his 'banger' (toy gun) and generally clambered all over me. I don't see them often enough, really. They said they might stop by in the week, but whether or not it actulaay happens is another story.

Title: Tell, Don't Show
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Some swearing
Parings/Characters: Arthur/Merlin
Summary: Arthur was bound to find out eventually, so Merlin decides it would be better to just tell him. There is yelling.
A/N: This is my first Merlin fic; I mostly just lurk there. Apparantly a bunch of people have been jonesing for indignant!Merlin, so, here it is.
A/N2: I posted this to merlinxarthur a couple of days ago, but forgot to put it here.

I've been thinking about my different fandoms and ships, and what I want when I go looking for fic in each of them, because I get very different things out of them all.

Dear reccer,

WTF is the point in a recs list that doesn't have any links in it, in which the only information given that might actually help in LOCATING the stories is "Most of them are on ff.net"? That's just cruel. It's like, "Here's all this yummy cake that 10 out of 10 food critics agree is the most delicious thing ever! What? No, you can't have any. You just get to look. Isn't it pretty?"

No. It's not pretty. It's annoying.

No love,

Helen Damnation

1/16/09 11:44 pm - Armageddon'ts and the Art of Screwing Destiny, 16 - 25


Title: Armageddon'ts and the Art of Screwing Destiny, 16 - 25
Pairings: mostly Peter/Nathan, but 18) got hijacked by Mylar and 19) kind of implies Peter/Sylar, which... I don't even know how that happened. Again. Have I become a Petlar shipper without noticing?
Rating: PG: 13
Warnings: Incest, innuendo, more angst than last time. Some of these are kind of AU.
Summary: A collection of drabbles based on the first line on every page in the novel Good Omens, by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman.
A/N: Yesterday's were mostly Nathan POV, but this set seems to be mostly Peter.

Title: Armageddon'ts And The Art of Screwing Destiny, 1-15
Pairing: Nathan, Peter and Nathan/Peter
Rating: PG:13
Warnings: Incest, implied sex, some angst but nothing serious.
Spoilers: Some mentions of events throughout the series.
Summary: A collection of drabbles based on the prompt: Pick a novel and take the first line off of every page and write a drabble prompt from it. Novel is Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman.
AN: These are up to page fifteen. I have a looooong way to go. I'll try to do at least ten a day until I finish the book, and hopefully post once a day, but I'm not making any promises.

12/24/08 07:52 pm - Toy Story

I sat down with the folks today to watch Toy Story 2, and realised two things:

1) It's a pretty disturbing film. There are themes of abandonment (Jessie and Emily), abuse (Woody's arm being torn off by Andy), kidnapping (Woody) and for god's sake, Jessie breaks down because she "Can't go back into the dark!", the storage she and the others had been in for years!

2) I really want some Woody/Buzz fanfic. Really really. They'd do anything for each other, and Buzz's attraction to Jessie is clearly displacement. Heh. Bo Peep is such a slasher, trying to trick Buzz into kissing Woody like that.

11/13/08 12:07 am - Heroes ep 8: Villains reaction post

Ok, it's a little late because I only saw the episode tonight (I know I say this a lot, but it bears repeating; BRITISH) but I've decided to start doing reaction posts anyway. You lot see them on Monday, right? So it's only two days. Ish.

[info]cookie_simone found this Random Paragraph Generator and used it to make cracky slash drabbles. It looked like fun, so this is me joining in.

PG for innuendo.
