Um. Maybe 30% back on track?

A less productive weekend than I hoped. Last week's list still pending! (God I suck and I am sorry.)

New development that I am conflicted about: more side!fic. Which is great and all, but highly distracting me from TEF. And just when I got my mojo going on TEF, personal commitments took me away from writing. Dammit. Hopefully... Hell, I'll just keep my fingers crossed. I WILL MAKE MY DEADLINE, I SWEAR IT.

Maybe for my birthday I should just cut myself off from the outside world and write my ass off. There are weekends where I actually consider that the ideal way to spend my time, because I am weird and nerdy.

TEF Word Count: 57,020
TEF Page Count: 104 pages
TEF Factoid #17: Dammit. UM. UM. Let me check my notes. Two of the girls end relationships throughout the course of the story.

Now, on the flip side, this is how much side!fic happened.

Sidefic Word Count: 1,426

DAMMIT SIDEFIC. (And this is different sidefic than the one I made false promises about weeks ago though I am still planning on posting it SOMETIME THIS CENTURY, PERHAPS.)

UUUUUUUGH.

ETA: I JUST HEARD THIS AND IT IS AWESOME. WHO COULD IT POSSIBLY BE ABOUT, I WONDER.

Kiss With A Fist - Florence and the Machine

BTW WHO WANTS CLOSER. YES YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE.

LOL, WELL GOOD. I finally feel like I have a handle on your birthday fic. I ran through a couple of ideas then finally was given one that I was fond of by an outside source. It might involve someone giving someone else a gift. How quaint. I should probably go work on it or study or something... Again, partial welcome for your partial return!

And not to pressure you or anything, but you should TOTALLY give yourself the gift of a free weekend with which to write us fic do whatever you please.

YAAAAAAY BDAY FIIIIIIC :DDDDDD

That would be an AWESOME birthday weekend, the more and more I think about it. DAMMIT LIFE.

HEY BTW I TOTALLY UPLOADED SONGS YOU SHOULD LISTEN TO.

[identity profile] juxtaposie.livejournal.com 2008-10-13 08:05 am (UTC)(link)
I love songs! WHERE ARE THEY?

[identity profile] juxtaposie.livejournal.com 2008-10-13 08:06 am (UTC)(link)
Wait! There they are! *is incredibly, unfailingly blonde*

EDIT: Okay so that song about kissing your sweety with your fist? Prefect. I love it. AND ZOMFG CLOSER YAY!!!

Coincidentally, I have a song for you too. It's called Bruises by Chairlift, and it really is just a little too sweet, but I like to think they have their moments, and the line about getting holes in new jeans is just too perfect. Enjoy.

Re-edit: okay, it's the right link now... well, the righter link. more right. whatever!

I am like a month ahead of you. I have had Bruises on endless repeat 24/7 for weeeeeks. It is amaaaaazing, though it is more Blue than Green to me.

T_T I know. I am full of shame O7Z

I will have you know, however, that I haven't been this excited about a birthday in years, and it's all because I am anticipating your glorious fic in LESS THAN A WEEK, OMG.

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

EEEEEEEEE

Curse my infernal slowness! Though... I can kinda see that too. And good lord is it cute! The other couple we had it attached to is very much a Green type of relationship, and you know how easy it is to translate something literally. Ever watch Bleach? Shinji and Hiyori all the way, man!

I am a Bleach virgin. I am always frightened of series with episode counts in the triple digits - I don't think I've watched one since, holy crap, Sailormoon D:

[identity profile] go-google-me.livejournal.com 2008-10-14 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
That's a bit daunting.

Especially since I've seen reds fic of the upwards-rated variety before, but it's usually either absolute crap or part of a very short work, not part of a monster of the proportions that Inhib. is approaching.

I'm afraid. Hurry up on TEF so I don't feel as alone in my ventures.

Oh Sailormoon. You were the starter drug show for so many people. Yeah, Bleach is kinda scarily long. I don't suppose it would help if I said you could not watch the 80 episodes of filler? Or better yet, read the manga? And I'm serious about the 80 episodes of terrible, time-wasting, craptastic filler. I still can't understand why they did that to us...

I am not adverse to reading manga. And come to think, a friend of mine put the Bleach manga on my reading list a long time ago.

Manga > anime.

FIC > MANGA

Give it time. I will soon join you in a couple of months *DUCKS AS YOU THROW THINGS AT ME*

[identity profile] juxtaposie.livejournal.com 2008-10-14 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
It's definitely worth the read.

Absolutely.

OH GOD YES IT'S TRUE!!!
