!! fic link & new comms.; gratuitous torment; ?

Am taking a break from finishing up "The Qualities of Silk," aka "my [livejournal.com profile] sgabigbang fic from HELL" to do a couple things.

1.) I have written the femslash! I'm ashamed to say it's one of the first times I've tried, but you know, it was a lot of fun, especially because I enjoyed writing Teyla and Elizabeth's sections of "Silk," and had toyed with writing them as a pairing in it but ran out of the time to make it happen. So, it happens here. Summary: The Lanteans have been able to explain a lot to Teyla--comic books, sports, automatic weapons--but not the double standard.

2.) Two new McKay/Sheppard-centric comms today, hurrah! [livejournal.com profile] sheafrotherdon's [livejournal.com profile] mcsmooch, because really, can you have too much of John and Rodney kissing? And this looks really cool, [livejournal.com profile] mcshep_bound, the McKay/Sheppard-specific version of the circulating fandom journal. I'm really excited about participating, though it'll be weird to see fic and art in a place other than my computer or my Moleskine.

3.) Never say 'couple' when there are three, but I'm doing this to torment [livejournal.com profile] chebonne:

Like the rest of the Lanteans, John sticks with the bruschetta, which is almost like pizza, cheese and crackers, and the skewers of actual, non-spreadable chicken. Rodney, despite having to deal with the attentions of five people, stands ferocious guard over his plate, and the circling waiters have learned to leave him alone.

John shifts a bit to watch him, the black fabric of his tuxedo jacket stretching and folding across Rodney’s shoulders as he gestures, fingers and wineglass painting out equations, illustrating the breadth of his audience’s collective stupidity.
Nonono, Ancient technology doesn’t work that way, how many times – He shifts, taking one step forward, and John’s mouth goes maybe the tiniest bit dry at how Rodney’s dress pants show off his ass more than is decent, or good for John’s health.

That's for putting the images in my head in the first place and making it hard to concentrate on fic I should be writing. *sticks out tongue*

4.) This just occurred to me. I wonder what it would be like to throw all caution to the wind and write something either 1) I don't read, as a rule, or 2) I never even considered writing, like genderswitch or mpreg or over-the-top wayyy OOC emo fic. Or, you know, het as the primary pairing. (Which I swear I have never, to my knowledge, written.) Kind of an expand-my-horizons sort of thing, in the spirit of trying out spinach or skydiving. Will have to consider this.

In other news: ALMOST DONE ALMOST DONE ALMOST DONE!!!!

I imagine both Jonh and I feel the same way about Rodney in a tux. You do know that you must write more about this -- perhaps John getting to undress Rodney? Or get to see Rodney the way we talked about yesterday, with the sleeves rolled up and... well -- after the whole [livejournal.com profile] sgabigbang thing? Because just leaving it like this would be evil and wicked and would you really DO such a thing to me?

Also? Yay for being almost finished!

I think it's time for the Super-Emo Faramir tribute fic. With every bad-fic convention being used to the max. (Btw, saw David Wenham in "300" yesterday, and he was yummy, so the man's on my mind.)

Mmmmm... tasty dessert.

As soon as I've recovered from the horror of writing 9K in a day, I'm so on this. The plot is there, but no brain power is left to produce it.

Oh, like how Faramir is all angsty and sad because he loves Boromir but Daddy hates him, and so does everyone else, and when Boromir leaves he's so sad and alone and no one understands him at all so he sulks in Henneth Annun and mopes while he's on patrol?

Mopey!Angsty!Teenager Faramir is the ticket. One too many growling!Denethors and you ought to be in the right mood. (Nothing like encouraging OOC to the max for a good time.)

You know it! Because Denethor HATEZ his son, who is girly and good for nothing and reminds him of his dead wife and so causes him Great Pain and Suffering every time Denethor lays eyes on him.

And if he isn't a pedophile, he's still a pain in the ass! And loves Boromir more! But not that way!

But as much as Faramir wants to hate Boromir he can't! Because Boromir is his big brother who defends him against mean ol' Denethor and the rest of the world, and... and taught Faramir how to shave and go on dates, but Faramir hates that Boromir's gone because now there's no one to protect him from the world!!!!!!

And he'd curl up in a ball and cry if only he weren't afraid that his father would find out and sentence him to a lifetime of guard duty in Ithilien.

Wait a minute--his father DID sentence him to a lifetime of guard duty in Ithilien.

Poor sweetie. *hugs you* No pressure or anything.

But I am glad that I'm able to be inspirational!

Hi there. Uhm, I hope you don't mind me friending you. We used to be on the TQML together--I used the pen name Ketsurui then. I hope you remember me. Lorena pointed me towards your journal...
