So, my bandombigbang draft was completed and turned in. I'm hoping that the fact that I absolutely hate it is just because I'm tired of staring at it. We'll see what my betas have to say. Also, reading over the summaries at the mixers sign up post (what? I can't help it!) makes me really excited to read some of these. I predict there will be no writing done in the month of June, what with bandombigbang and spn_j2_bigbang.

In the meantime, the master list of fic and art from j2_everafter was posted. I've been kinda waiting on those, b/c Jared+Jensen+Disney? YES.

I've also been on a The Used kick this week. I wanna blame shutyourface since she brought it up in her LJ the other day, but I have to admit I already had two TU fics open in tabs at the time. Where is all the fic? There needs to be SO MUCH MORE of it and I can't find it. Yall should rec me your favorite TU fics or something. Or write me some!

I mentioned to wendy the other day that my reward to myself for finishing my bigbang was going to be a geek picspam, centered on Sam Winchester and Spencer Reid. Any other fandom-geeks you recommend I include in that?

Also, tomorrow is Sam Winchester's birthday!! I want happy!Sam fic! Or porn, I wouldn't say no to that. And the show last night? <3 I miss the days when I loved Supernatural. *sigh*

Jon just texted me to tell me that everyone at RMG just got an 8% pay decrease. Oh, how I don't miss that place. But he distracted me, so uh...

The drabbles from the alphabet post are coming; I have 5 or 6 of them done, plus a few other things I'm going to include. Should I post them in groups as I finish them or wait until they're all done and post them all at once?

And two messages brought to you via copperbadge:

luckyckljw is a photographer and artist (you can see some of her work here) who is looking for subjects and models in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area (or as far away as Austin) and thought LJ might be able to help her out. She says: ....themes have covered concepts of beauty as it relates to size; relationship structures and the expression of love; and gender. I want to cover themes including what I've mentioned and also touch on religion/spirituality, sexual preferences (BDSM and other non-vanilla sex), cosplaying, cross-dressing, and the lifestyles that surround all of these. So, I'm helping spread the word. Check out her post for more info, and if you're in the area (or not but know someone who is) consider helpin' make some AHRT! :D

Sam (aka copperbadge) just self-published Nameless, his first novel, edited and designed with the help of LJ readers.

Christopher, the only bookseller in the small farm town of Low Ferry, lives an uneventful life -- until one day he encounters a shy newcomer named Lucas, and accidentally sells him the wrong book. What follows is a journey for both men, in vastly different ways, set against the strange, ritualistic, magic backdrop of a midwestern winter.

You can check out more about Nameless at his blog post or buy Nameless from Lulu here.

A short bit of Shelter!fic for yana_ambf. 370 words, written when I wasn't feeling particularly inspired so I apologize.

( Gabe was Zach’s best friend and Shaun’s brother; he had to be some help, right? )

So, sometimes I text people and ask them for the three words as a prompt. And then I usually only actually write something for the first couple that respond, but that's b/c I'm faily like that. Also, these are often utterly craptastic, but occasionally I do like the way they turn out.

This one was for shutyourface and I don't remember what her other two words were, but one of them was prestidigitation. 225 words of the panic boys.

( Poets, Paupers, and Prestidigitation )

I don't remember the prompt words for this one either, but it was obviously for reallythateasy b/c it's We The Kings. 200 words.

( Travis looked up at the clouds that were gathering overhead and sighed at the thought of having to move. )

More WTK for reallythateasy. Yeah, don't ask. 660 words.

( Plane rides were so fucking boring sometimes. )

And I don't know that this was written specifically for reallythateasy (I think about half the things I write are for her?) but it's what I was texting her when I was sitting out on the concourse during 50cent's set at the FOB concert in Charlotte. 500 words of GABE.

( Gabe knows that his guys are just worried about him. )

Gosh, I'm full of spammy posts tonight. Sorry.

Watching Flashpoint with my mom, and one of the guest girls on here (Alexia Fast) looked vaguely familiar so I imdb'd her (she played the young Azkadellia on Tin Man) and she is actually the little girl from Benders. She was fricking creepy on that episode! She's kinda cute now though. /random

ETA: Now watching a rerun of Leverage. Ted-from-QaF is on here, lol.

To add a little content to this otherwise-pointless post: FIC RECS!

Perfect Rhyme by listen_loudly
Nick Wheeler/Spencer Smith (AAR/Panic)

“They are rather fancy shoes,” Nick admits. “But I’m intrigued by you. The whole…” he waves his free hand. “I don’t know. The whole package. Like how you can go from having that awesome bitch face to bein’ all polite in a split second. And, like, how your eyes get really wide and blue when you’re focused on something.”

Spencer feels the blush coming back. He clears his throat and tosses the soda can that he’s still fiddling with. “I, ah, think the shirt’s probably soaked by now?” he says, forcing the subject to change. He reminds himself (for the umpteenth time) that he really doesn’t like this guy, even if he is really hot and kinda dorky, and even if he did seem sincere when he apologized.

The Bridge by foxinmyhands
aka the Vegan Coffee Shop of Kink AU
Dan/Jepha, Bert/Quinn || NC-17 || 13,006 words || Kink warnings for: D/s, knifeplay, outdoor sex

Dan's shirtless again -- motherfucking construction worker with his motherfucking muscles, there should be laws -- and Jepha's kind of finding it hard to act cool. Now that Dan's fucked him a couple of times it shouldn't matter that Jepha can't handle his own desire, whatever, but something's still driving him to try to hide it. He doesn't know whether it's a self-defense mechanism or because it makes it that much better when he finally has to beg, but either way he ends up blushing.
