ah, Wednesday
Mar. 20th, 2013 11:26 pm1. It's the first day of spring. I should not have had to wear my winter coat. What even is this, weather goddesses?
2. I attempted to read several books over the last couple days. The worst was the Hayley Ann Solomon regency, where every character talked like this all the time. WILD emphasis all over the place and exclamation points! EVEN IN THE PROSE. Now, I'm good with a bit of emphasis, but ffs, all the characters sounded the same, ugh.
3. I have written St. Trinian's fic. Only the Mad Survive It's a short Annabelle piece. it is not wingfic.
4. For the first time in... a long time, I had an entire scene spring itself upon me while peeling garlic earlier. Unfortunately, the beginning got forgotten due to not having the time to type it all, and I was left with this (Stargate: Atlantis, Laura Cadman and Rodney McKay while on a recon find a dude in a block of ice whom Cadman recognizes):
"Oh, please, Captain America is not a real superhero. Those were just propaganda films."
"Rodney!" Looking annoyed, Cadman narrowed her eyes at him, "That is not true. Just because Canada never produced any superheroes--"
"There's me."
"You don't count."
(there is more, but that is the point where I snapped: "Shut up, Rodney" at the garlic clove in my hand)
5. Which leads to the consideration: does the world need some sort of Stargate: Atlantis/Marvel Cinematic Universe crossover challenge? Are people just dying to have an excuse to write about how Elizabeth Weir prefers being debriefed by Maria Hill (there is alcohol afterwards), or that time Hawkeye was posted to Atlantis, or what about what happens when the Wraith take on Asgard? Or Loki tries to take over Replicator!Elizabeth's ship and she eats his brains?
6. I followed a link to a Clara Oswald/Harry Watson fic the other day, and discovered that they have a two-second mention in a fic all about Watson and his deep love for Sherlock and their ~amazing connection whilst Eleven gives him an adventure. BLEH. People, do not fucking tag your fic f/f if it's not actually F/F, but about DUDES.
