Stuff and Things

[altogetherisi]

 The week has been a bit ...meh. It kinda got away from me? I don't have anything much to show for it. Oops.

I am officially over this "having the house to myself" lark. I miss human interaction. And having a parental unit cook and stuff. I fail at looking after myself. But, moving on. Drawing a line under that. Soon, the house will be shared with another humanoid again, and then it's going to be crazy just go go go for a month or so, what with Hay and France bookending interning (did I mention I'm going back to intern some more? I am) so if I had any sense or motivation, I'd be spending as much time as I can appreciating that my tutees have now in fact reached their exams, so that work has come to a close, and I have literally no reason to not be writing writing writing at the moment.

Yeah... as if that is happening.

My current obsession with TSN fandom continues apace. Also, seriously in love with Jesse Eisenberg right now. Like, a lot. A LOT. I understand that I was previously focussing on Andrew Garfield intellectually, and that initially I appreciated Jesse and thought he was cool but not the main event, but that seems LIKE UTTER MADNESS NOW. Don't get me wrong. I still love Andrew Garfield, borderline hipster, friend of Matt Smith afpihjgiusfv possesser of a very beautiful face and soul and oh so much talent and everything etc etc. But seriously people. JESSE EISENBERG. GAH. He is just utterly exquisite. Like an extremely beautiful masterpiece of dorky, nervous art. So yeah. LOVE.

I'm still technically writing TSN fic, but I got a bit back into the original stuff again, so realistically I'm not gonna produce until summer I expect. *shrugs* 

 

I also made this ridiculous long Mark and Eduardo ...playlist? Fanmix? I've loved many many pairings, but none have ever forcibly applied themselves to so many songs in my brain. I don't really know what to do with it. Other than listen and think, god boys, why so tragic and fucked up.

Hey, so, what about that Doctor Who, huh? THIS SERIES IS AWESOME OK. Even the weak pirates episode was fun. Rory is getting so cool and cute and character development-y this year! The first two eps were just EXCELLENT and made me properly feel for River Song for the first time. The Doctor's Wife was lovely, just made my heart explode with EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE at the cute and the love. And last weeks, the Rebel Flesh, was great, because you could really feel the pain and confusion.

 

Basically, best series evah, y/mfy?!

Other TV stuff: Glee ended. I basically liked the ep, it was cheerful and neat and cute, and overall, I basically liked this season. Klaine! Kurtofsky! Brittana! Very much looking forward to the Glee tour in, like, a month. Just four and a half weeks away! :D

 

Also, slowly but surely catching up with White Collar. God I love this show. Neal of the inhumanly beautiful face, I love you. And the awesome ladies are here in force, despite (and not at all detracting from) the male-male relationship that is the focal point of the show. Oh show, I love you, I do.

If anyone would like a Dreamwidth invite code, holla, I just got a bunch :)

No! Glee hasn't finished yet! I refuse!

To be fair, it hasn't if you're watching it on E4, like I am :P

And Doctor Who! The awesomes!

*pokes* write more!

YOUR WORDS SPEAK TO MY SOUL.

...I really need to get me some TSN icons. (Very possibly of JESSE'S PERFECT FACE.)

ARGH I have been meaning to give you loads of Andrew/Jesse recs, and just generally reply to your last comment in our epic god-this-fandom-is-THE-BEST thread from before but I got distracted by, um, reading fic instead of reccing it, and then you made a new squeeing post and now you are over here. BUT I STILL TOTALLY INTEND TO DO THAT. Um.

I'm just gonna reply to both comments here like that's a normal thing to do OK then. Here I go.

JESSE'S -FACE- SPEAKS TO MY SOUL. It really does, as well as working as a comeback. Here is my Jesse-Mark icon. *basks* Do get one. It is a great excuse to spend ages pouring over many many pics Not that an excuse is required. God but he's beautiful.

TELL ME YOU HAVE NOW READ THE BAKERY AU. This is very important to me ok, it really is. I am very gleeful that you loved 4 People Who Weren't Selling Their Shares as much as I thought you would though! 3D asshole matchmaking Sean is the best Sean!

It's the UNEXPECTED WIP that KILLS me. And it's happened like, five times recently - innocently reading utterly amazing fic, sudden cliffhanger that I was not emotionally prepared for AT ALL and then the bereft feeling of wandering the internet pointlessly. God it's annoying. No big deal to me if I know going in though, that was how I learnt fandom so I actually feel slightly spoiled when there is just all this delicious completed fic lying around waiting for me, om nom nom.

God, I LOVE THIS FANDOM.

It's finished... but it isn't over yet? *compromises* You and Hannah and your E4 ness *shakes head*

Doctor Who is just so good at the moment! It really keeps delighting me and being excellent and satisfying as a show and I've loved it for years yet the love feels refreshed and new! :D :D :D

I'm all fail at writing at the moment, but it's not stressing me out, so I'm ok about it. It'll happen. Eventually.

Hahahaha. I got distracted by, um, reading fic instead of reccing it - THIS IS A COMMON EXPERIENCE FOR ME. :D

I THINK JESSE'S FACE JUST TALKS IN SOUL LANGUAGE, TBH. <333

The very concept of unexpected WIPs terrified me. OH GOD NOOOOO. THEY COULD BE ANYWHERE. *hides* o__o

I HAVE READ THE BAKERY AU! It was almost too sweet for me, but everytime it started heading that way there was another hilariously snarky email exchange. And I think I'm in love with Dustin now. DUUSSSTIIIIIIN.

3D asshole matchmaking Sean is the best Sean!
\o/ He does care about Mark in his own special Sean way. Which mostly means he does his best to get Mark laid. And then he realises Mark doesn't want to sleep with random strangers at Sean's cool parties because he is too busy pining over Edwardo and Sean is all "YOUR MONOGAMOUS FEELINGS MAKE LITTLE-TO-NO SENSE TO ME, BUT OKAY, IF GETTING EDUARDO BACK IS WHAT IT TAKES TO GET YOU LAID, MI AMIGO, I GUESS THAT IS WHAT I'LL HAVE TO DO." (Which is frustrating, because Eduardo takes everything way too seriously which makes it difficult for Sean to work on him, BUT SEAN'S VAGUELY AFFECTION-Y FEELINGS FOR MARK MAKES HIM PERSEVERE IN INSULTING EDUARDO BACK INTO MARK'S LIFE.)

(Possibly after this has been going on for a while Eduardo calls Mark in desperation to get him to stop Sean somehow. And then Mark is all "Sean's been doing what? *facepalms*". And then Eduardo and Mark are forced to team up to stop Sean from a: harassing Eduardo constantly and b: embarrasing Mark by noticing his emotions and then telling people about them. He absolutely is not moping, and if he was, Eduardo wouldn't need to know about it. And then Eduardo finds he enjoys talking with Mark again. But he is determined not to let Mark know, becuase if he did make up with Mark that would mean Sean had won. And Sean should not be rewarded for harassing people, he does not need any more positive reinforcement on his totally unacceptable behaviour. Which is why Eduardo does his best to make sure there's NO WAY SEAN COULD FIND OUT when he starts turning up to visit Mark sometimes. And then Sean rings him up and is like "So. I've noticed Mark's stopped moping. Congratulations on making up with one another!" and Eduardo's like "I have not made up with Mark, Sean. I have no idea what his emotional state is or why it might have changed, but it has nothing to do with me." and Sean goes "Uh-huh. You keep telling yourself that." *hangs up* and then Eduardo's all DAMMIT, HOW DOES HE ALWAYS KNOW THESE THINGS. IT IS SO UNFAIR. And then Eduardo probably gives in and admits that he cannot hide it and moves in with Mark.)

(And the fact I just spewed all that at you unexpectedly is ENTIRELY SEAN'S FAULT. Somehow.)
