oh sometimes i forget i have a ~real life to deal with [Jul. 11th, 2009|06:40 pm]
[Tags|, , , ]

so this is how life looks like at the moment:

+ trans-fucking-2. ♥ makes me wanna go, oh fuck it, i'd rather READ THIS than write ~anything altogether.

+ speaking of writing, last installment still untouched after a week. whew. is this real life or what.

+ speaking of real life, 8 FUCKING STATE OF THE NATION ADDRESSES TO GO THROUGH. before the 27th. these are times when i just don't like what i do.

+ oh kat prescott. breaking hearts everywhere, aren't we. (i feel oddly more heartbroken now than i was when it was lily; it's not even funny and i'm not telling my girlfriend. or maybe i will. idk.)

+ sivi's been killing everyone with OT3 fics and just, idk. i mean, it's like, my third attempt to re-read Deeper without stopping at all the inappropriate places, and STILL no success. dear lord. and now, NOW a trans sequel. sivi's out to kill us all. ♥

+ [info]excitedrainbow has got me looping bon iver's blindsided, like, ~indefinitely. ♥

+ this last installment is, just, idk. makes me wish i knew how to write effy so i could write this in ~her pov and be done with the whole issue already.

+ solar eclipse next week! ♥

+ late for work as it is, but then, the perks of being the head bitch in charge, yes? yes.

score! [Jul. 6th, 2009|12:30 am]
[Tags|, , , , ]

+ so. successful epic move over the weekend; i never really knew we had that much stuff (well, by my estimates, 80 percent hers, 20 percent mine actually - and this is MY room.) but then, 2 years is 2 years, yeah? hm. here's to NEVER moving again. i feel like my back's about to hurt for the next two months. anyway, the floor's wood, so WORTH IT, totally.

+ oh god, how much do i love passion pit? and [info]excitedrainbow? A LOT. there are no words for this now.

+ god no progress on the last installment; the girl and i are sort of trying out the new place, so forgive us, and forgive me while i look for music to write the last installment of "the best of you and me" to. it's ~important.

+ jesus christ kat prescott how hot are you, how. ♥

EDIT: + any idea when emily/katie's birthday/naomi's birthday fall in canon? can't seem to find them anywhere?

when you come swimming into view [Jul. 2nd, 2009|05:29 pm]
[Tags|, , ]

+ this character (lily) is turning out to be one of the more terrifyingly honest characters i've ever written; a bit too honest to be comfortable, actually, and i'm on my fifth run-through of this, just, i don't know. to say i'm surprised is completely understated.

+ i'll still wonder where you are by [info]lesaut is naomi/emily that gives you that lovely heavy heartache-y feel. i love this naomi - distant, unreadable, just. lovely. and don't get me started on the fucking gorgeous ~language.

+ in another world, i think i'd miss you if we never met, on the other hand, is ~8k words of Alex/Paige in Degrassi by [info]twistomatic.

now, there are very few fandoms that i actually wander into without direct knowledge of the text/show itself. a prime example of this is The Office, but only because of [info]michellek - i mean, i still re-read slowly embracing the concept of you as a never was because it's karen filipelli and it has one of the most heartbreaking breakup scenes i've ever read EVER.

but then, this being [info]twistomatic, i figured, might as well? i've never watched degrassi, not a single episode, but the way this is written, just - oh. the emotions are so solid and identifiable and heartbreaking. obviously, i have a soft spot for things going in circles, and THIS. just, oh.

+ moving out in approx 36 hours? means i'd prolly be off the fucking internet over much of the weekend and monday because i can't get LJ on my phone without the device hanging on me. oh lj, why can't you and my phone be friends. i mean, she and twitter are friends.

+ WHERE ARE PICS OF THE TRINITY? ffs. [EDIT: oh even better - @belchingdevil - http://yfrog.com/0c7d2j :)]

[music |passion pit - sleepyhead [repeat-1]]

+ i am sort of coming down with *something*. bodybreakdown, splitting the fucking calendar exactly in half; tomorrow it's july, and my body says, chill, steady -- ok fine, body, you win. and i don't even smoke anymore; how dare you do this to me. on a week when i have to lift ~furniture because, hello, moving rooms. WHAT UP respiratory system, srsly.

+ oh i'm loving this hard - i am on a lonely road and i am travelling by [info]lesaut -- fucking ~gorgeous.

+ leighton meester and blake lively are doing nothing for my asthma. idk. if they're not ~doing it, IDK.

+ somewhere, lily loveless and kathryn prescott are/have started rehearsing with the rest of those kids for skins s4. the beginning of the end? please there's too much going on in my chest already as it is.

+ fucking Passion Pit. why do i only have sleepyhead on my itunes? why?

so i'm in between defrosting my refrigerator and doing the laundry and running off to get a few more errands done, because my girlfriend and i are moving out of this room in, like, ~five days, srsly, so before i forget:

+ thanks you lovely lot for the spectacular feedback on the last part of the nameless series that's currently eating my life; really, thank you. ♥

+ dear skins season 1 ender -- JUST. WHAT THE FUCK?

+ dear lily loveless, can you be any more gorgeous. clearly it wouldn't hurt to post it, like, one more time. )

a) working for real, for once
b) spending father's day with my dad
c) having a date with my girlfriend

hm?

skins: but we move in infinite space (naomi/effy, naomi/emily) [Jun. 10th, 2009|03:19 am]
[Tags|, , , , ]

Title: but we move in infinite space
Author: [info]daneorange
Fandom: skins
Pairing: naomi/effy, naomi/emily
Rating: PG
Word count: ~3,300 words
Notes: Title from Rainer Maria Rilke’s Letters to a Young Poet. Bryan Elsley and Jamie Brittain own Skins and its characters; I’m just borrowing, promise to return unharmed. No copyright infringement intended.

after this, this and this.

sometimes Naomi wonders why Effy does it – let herself be around Naomi on days when Naomi is obviously at her worst; though Naomi never really arrives at an answer that sounds the least bit logical, it does not bother her, or at least, that’s how Naomi settles the thing with herself. )

Fandom: skins rpf
Pairing: kathryn prescott/lily loveless
Rating: R
Word count: ~4,500 words
Notes: Oh god, of course – the Cardigans. Here’s where I say none of these is true, and that when i say a lot of liberty has been taken with everything, i mean A LOT. and really, girls, I adore you, please don’t smite me.

she’s too close anyway that Kat has to try very hard not to act too surprised or fucked over or something rather true; says something like she’s okay with that like she really is, even when inside she feels horribly misled. )

questions [Jun. 6th, 2009|01:49 pm]
[Tags|, , ]

* so i was like watching Penelope the other weekend, and it just occurred to me: WAS THAT MAMA FITCH?

* god this rpf is totally late for the prescotts' birthday, srsly. SLOW. (kicks)

* and oh, forgive the ignorance, but. did lily always have a boyfriend whilst filming skins? just a question.

EDIT:
* really, when does my heart stop breaking?

* why is this video of Never say Never from The Fray always on Channel V whenever I manage to tune in? really?

* (checks date) definitely no [info]femslash09 this year for me. ugh my commitment issues are APPALLING. though i'm absolutely excited with the loads of possible skins fic and skins rpf that would give birth to - hoyeah.

* speaking of awesome skins fic and skins rpf -- spent most of the last three days trying to get through this *succession* of good fic, to wit:

- these tiresome paper dreams, honey by [info]twistomatic - Megan Prescott/Kaya Scodelario, Lily Loveless/Kathryn Prescott

- slow hands by [info]sivim27 - megan/kaya, lily/kat

- torn down from glory daily by [info]jengrrrl - effy/katie

... jesus, must you all post at the SAME TIME.

* it's raining like fuck here. and again, my characters are being stubborn. (kicks)
