Writing woes

[renrenren3]

❧ For the first time in forever, I'm working on multiple fics at the same time. The material proof are the three drafts I have lying around my desk (it's good to have a desk again, btw). On the plus side, I almost feel like a writer. On the minus side, I don't because none of them is in any way close to finished.

❧ Both of my attempts at writing for the first challenge at thegameison_sh have so far been thwarted by Sherlock, who went off on a tangent with complete disregard for the word count. Typical of the man. I'm left wondering if it wouldn't be better to write about someone sane, like Lestrade, or John, or even Moriarty.

I don't know the plot of 4x15 (I don't watch previews) but I know Castiel is in it! I love him. I thought the show was awesome already but before S4 I didn't realize that it sorely lacked a grumpy angel in a trench coat.

lol 4x18, I've heard of that episode XD

[redjumper.livejournal.com]

4.18 is so epically shippy! I think I just reminded myself of 4.15 I think.

Oh my god I just found Anthony head on doctor who!!

[renrenren3]

I never felt the need to ship anyone on the show before but ffff Castiel! I wonder if I can marathon 4 episodes after bingo is over.

1 more reason to watch Doctor Who!

[redjumper.livejournal.com]

Same here. I think that's why there were so many wincest shippers : they needed someone to ship. But our pretty little Cas came along!

I've watched colin's episode and angels tonight!

[renrenren3]

Yes! I don't mind Winchest myself, I read it occasionally but I don't feel the need to search for fics or anything. But Castiel is just... ugh. ♥

[redjumper.livejournal.com]

There are no words to describe the awesomeness that is Castiel. I never read Wincest, though that's probably because I only got into the fandom while I was watching series 4. The first episode I ever saw was the series 2 finale. I was confused!

[renrenren3]

Indeed! The end of S2... lol I suppose it must have seemed pretty crazy.

[redjumper.livejournal.com]

YUP. I'm all who are these people and what the hell is going on? My friend had seen all the episodes so we sat down with the dvds and marathon'd it! Ah, seems so long ago!

[renrenren3]

Lucky, I don't know anybody who watches SPN! It's not that popular here.

[redjumper.livejournal.com]

oh really? Which country do you live in? The boys came out here last year. I totally got Jensen's autograph and asked how his day was. And I bought his necklace. I still haven't taken it off!

i'm totally falling asleep! MUST.PLAY.BINGO

[renrenren3]

Italy. You're lucky to have conventions and stuff, where do you live?

lol his necklace is creepy... I thought it was a turtle at first, but yuck! I'd so wear it too, though.

YOU CAN DO IT! Just 20 minutes left :)

[redjumper.livejournal.com]

Oh I have always wanted to go there! All the ancient looking stuff! I did ancient history at school -- it was my favourite subject! I'm in Australia. It wasn't a great convention, poorly organised, but still, the boys were there!

I thought it was a turtle too! But I think it's some creepy dudes face. A relic or something. A customer at my work thought I was a devil worshipper when they saw it, I had to explain that it was from tv!

OH GOD IT'S TAKING SO LONG!

[renrenren3]

I suppose that's true, but I was never much one for ancient stuff XD I'm more for science myself, which sadly we lack.

Haha I know the feeling, I have a necklace with a pentagram and when I bought it my mum thought I was into satanism. She's got it the wrong way around.

INORITE? 5 MINUTES NOW? LESS?

[redjumper.livejournal.com]

I failed so hard at science. I did biology, 'cause it was the easiest one, but all my teachers hated their lives and couldn't be bothered to teach properly. *shrugs*

Oh I meant to ask you : thoughts on Ruby?

OH I WANT TO PLAYYYY. IT'S MY FIRST BINGO

[renrenren3]

I liked chemistry and astronomy, but I hated anatomy. Uggh the human body is gross inside. They were all mandatory though :(

Ruby is okay. I don't hate her like I hated Bela, lol.
Looks-wise I liked S3 Ruby better, but I like Genevieve Cortese too. And as a character I like how she's still part human and how she bickers with Dean. As long as he doesn't kill her.

OMG BINGO HAS STARTED! I'M KILLING MYSELF FOR PICKING THE LABYRINTH OF GEDREF OVER THE GATES OF AVALON!

[redjumper.livejournal.com]

We were learning all about babies and stuff, so we had to watch a woman giving birth. My teacher decided to rewind it so that the baby went back in.

S3 Ruby was way better. I don't like Genevieve at all. No idea why!

BINGOOOO

[renrenren3]

Wow that must have been... special...

It's strange to see actors change for the same character. It'd be tragic if it happened to Castiel. (Not that I think it'd happen, I read spoilers, but still.)

YES! I'M AT 2/10 NOW, WE CAN WIN THIS THING!

[redjumper.livejournal.com]

It was definitely an experience. He thought it was hilarious.

I hate when actors change! Luckily it doesn't happen too much. I think if they replaced Castiel, I'd cry. And cry. And Dean would cry, because someone took away his special angel.

I'M ON 2/10 AS WELL! Didn't get anything in the 2nd post. :(

[renrenren3]

Before Ruby I didn't care much, I hope it doesn't happen too often in the later series. Nooo, this settles it! You can't make Dean cry, because when Dean cries shit happens. Bad shit. So there, Castiel and Dean will live happily ever after. Or something.

YAY YOU! I'm at 3/10 after the 3rd draw, Vivian is my lucky girl x3

[redjumper.livejournal.com]

Dean does look very pretty when he cries though... But no! He and Castiel need a happy ending. Which for Dean is damn near impossible but I'm sure he can figure it out

EXTRA YAY TO YOU! Knew I should have picked her. Damn you Georgia Moffet! Why must you be so awesome. I totally meant to watch her episode of Doctor Who as well. Oops!

[renrenren3]

He does, but then again he looks pretty while he does anything. And sad!Dean makes me sad too so a happy ending is mandatory. I'm sure Castiel can manage on teeensy little miracle.

Georgia is so pretty it's ridiculous. It's set, I need to watch Doctor Who. How many episodes are there again?

[redjumper.livejournal.com]

I never saw the old timey doctor who, so i dunno if those are worth watching, but the newer version is up to series 5, 13 episodes in each. Series 1 is Christopher Eccelston, Series 2-4 are David Tennant [OMG I HEART HIM SO MUCH] and series 5 is Matt Smith [Never seen it, but my bff says its good]

Pretty much each series has a different companion, except Rose had series 1 and 2. Donna is my favourite, she's in series 4!

[renrenren3]

I wasn't really planning on watching 50 years worth of British series, just the newest ones. 13 eps is pretty short, I can marathon them!

Oh and I meant to ask you: do you have any non-spoilery recs for SPN fanfic? I have nothing much to do while I wait for bingo XD

[redjumper.livejournal.com]

Doctor Who Marathon! Oooh, if we're both online, we can watch together!

Hmm... not sure. there's deancastiel and you should be able to search through tags and stuff. But they update pretty frequently, so the non-spoilery ones will be wayyyy back. That's the only SPN place I've been sorry!

There's also spnstoryfinders with pretty big tag lists as well!

[renrenren3]

You'd have to wait until October until I finish SPN though, unless I go through the last series real quick XD;

*goes to hunt through tags*
