You lose some and... you lose some

I  faiiiiiiled to finish my Angel/Spike fic for the [livejournal.com profile] grazieprego  deadline. That would be today. Happy Failure Day!  And Cinco de Mayo!

A pile of dialogue does not a story make, unfortunately. I know. I've made stories out of piles of dialogue before.  Am aware of this. 

It's a shame, because: Amore/moray eel pun! Unfortunately the pun only really works when spoken aloud. And there was a thing about the Immortal fornicating Buffy repeatedly. That made me LOL a little to myself  (but not that heartily). 

Unrelated to anything, but on Law & Order SVU, Judge Marsden brought the WTFery,  huh?  Evil judges are on my squick list.

Much more interesting: The Sartorialist takes fashion photos of people on the street.  It's people-watching without leaving the house! Bonus!


ETA: I just noticed that ass/pants blog linked earlier is no longer being updated. This is a good thing, trust me. :D

I'm not really sure what that is - I'm not involved in Buffy/Angel fandom but don't be too hard on yourself - you'll either finish it at your leisure OR uh-those words will get incorporated into other stuff? (Mine tend to do the latter!)

Could do!

I think part of the problem is... I like reading Angel/Spike but don't normally write it.

This is my X-Files problem too. Everybody writes the pairing I like better anyway so I enjoy theirs instead of attempting to create anything! :D

This is my problem with Smallville - and to a lesser degree Atlantis.

This is why I can't write Buffy/Spike. F-listies kick too much arse already!

Can't top that! :D

This is my problem with writing Torchwood. Seriously. Why bother. But, I hope you finish it too--an incomplete is a sad thing (glares at my own fic, currently mocking me behind my back).

Awww, no... you should!
