That fic thing... And an update on the State of Me.

[tabaqui]

I hadn't actually thought i'd do one of those 'all the fics i wrote' posts, but then i thought - why not? So - all the fics i finished or started in 2006 are linked here for your perusal! Have fun! Or...you know...not. :)



First thing to be finished was Scaling Heaven, my Spander!in!Space Opera. It was fun! Then...

As If We Should Forget We Have No Hands - epic Spander Amnesia!fic.

Then there was Tumble, Turn, Overflow, a post-everything fic that got a bit nasty before it got better.

Neverland was also started in 2006 and is currently *one chapter away* from being done. You'll know why it's stuck there if you read the Me!update. Peter Pan! Spander! Darkness! All good.

Of course, reremouse and i had a couple of things going over at the douse_house... First there was Oxnard to Glory, an alternate post-Oxnard story that took us up to the epic fight with Glorificus. That was followed with 'what happened next in...
SNAFU!. Situation Normal, All Fucked Up. With Spander. :)

We finished our collaberations with Drowning, Not Waving, probably one of the darkest things we've ever done. But you all liked it! Heh.


Then, out of the blue - i drabbled! Wheeeeee! I'd like to drabble again, some day - it was fun. These all were for Miss ely_jan and are right here.

I also did a 'companion' ficlet to something sweptawaybayou wrote, which is also damn fun to do. Perdition to Arcadia.

2006 was also the year i started writing in the Supernatural fandom. Oh, such fun! It was/is really neat to be in a fandom that's just getting started, and here we are over a year later, it's it's going *strong*, with lots of lovely stories and lively discussion. And i'm so glad to see that a lot of you BtVS grrls are letting the SPN boys share the fandom couch with Spike and Angel and Oz...there's room for everybody!

Most of these were for darkhavens challenge comm, kaz2y5. A couple are just...cause. :) Supernatural!.

I also wrote a longer, chapterd SPN fic with one of my near-and-dear OC who's been kicking around in my brain - and in my stories - for years. Thou born to match the gale, (thou art all wings).

Last but not least, a gift for an SPN fandom-friend, an AU Supernatural story wherein the 'powers' Sam has are there from babyhood. All that's written so far is here: Two Roads Diverged.

And that's that, folks! Thank you *all* for all the wonderful comments and the support - you make the 'work' of writing so, so worth it!


Now for the *me* part - aren't you just so glad?? Since Thanksgiving i've been repeatedly, annoyingly, ill. On and off, nothing *serious*. Just something i had hoped my Mother's Day hysterectomy had cured. Denied! Sheesh. Anyway, the upshot was, i had to get a CT scan to look at my remaining innards and see what was what. And the CT scan, apparently, led to a nifty infection which, just yesterday, required emergency out-patient surgery! Oh joy!

Actually, since i'd been in freaking *pain* for a week, it was a dream come true and i *immediately* felt/feel better. Sore, of course, and still taking antibiotics *gag*, but much, much better. For the last week i literally could *not* sleep more than an hour or so, and was so physically uncomfortable i spent most of my time in one position on the couch or in bed. Jesus gods. The few times i got online were uncomfortable and brief. I mean - i *cried*, people. I don't cry over pain. I'm *German*. We're stoic. Gods, i feel so much better.

Consequences, however...i have a stack of bookmarked stuff to rival the Empire State Building. OMG! I'll be reading forever. If i don't comment on something that *you* wrote in, like, a week that you just *know* i would have, drop me a link! I'm sure i missed some stuff. I also have a long-time, haven't-seen-in-years friend coming by tomorrow or the next day and lo! my house is gross.

You know i'm feeling better when i start to eat again and i start to *clean*. Heh.

Last thing. I'm nursing a grudge. A petty, stupid, indulgent grudge that i bitched about to Snow and should just *let go* but my feelings are a little hurt, so... No, i'm not going to discuss it and no, it involves *no one* on my flist. It's just me being...petty. *sigh*

Love you all! See you soon!

ETA! I almost forgot! The Monstrous Bebe made a fanvid! She plays 'Toon Town' and she made a vid to a Pink song - she'd love a comment! Cog Building.

Brilliant fic round up, babe. I live to read your stories.

:)

And I'm so glad you're feeling better. I've been SO WORRIED. *flails* Stop that! Right now! I don't need anymore stress in my life!!

**hugs you tight**

*luffs you to the ends of the earth and beyond**

[tabaqui]

*hugs you tight*
Thanks, bay-bee! I'm so glad i'm feeling better, too!

*luffs you hard*

Oh, look - an ETA!
:)

[entrenous88.livejournal.com]

Oh god, I'm so so sorry that you've been in this much pain and discomfort! Thank goodness the procedure has helped to begin relieve that. Yikes!

*sends so many get well vibes that they flitter around your house like butterflies*

[tabaqui]

Thank you so much!
Just so tired of feeling crappy. Sheesh!

[trepkos.livejournal.com]

Poor you.
*pets you*
I didn't know CT scans could cause infection.
Hope you feel better soon.

[tabaqui]

*rurrrrrr*

Well, when part of it is done wrongish... It's too TMI to discuss, but i *will* be having words. Oh yes.

Thanks, bay-bee.

[zelost-mind.livejournal.com]

Wow. That sounds like it must've been just awful for you.

I'm so glad The State of You is feeling better now.

[tabaqui]

It's been amazingly sucky! I'm glad my State is better too.
:)

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

I feel like such a shit friend, I should have known that something was wrong! I'm so glad the pain is less.
Poor thing! Crying--no!
*hughug*
*kisses*

[tabaqui]

Oh, no no no!!
You're so not!
I'll bitch about a little cold or something, but big stuff? I'm totally mum.
Don't you be feeling bad, now!
*hugs you back*
*luffs*

[kitty-poker1.livejournal.com]

So sorry you've been feeling so poorly! I'm glad things are looking up now, even if it did take surgery to give you some relief. Sheesh, but that sounds painful. :(

I've been absolute rubbish at reading for a good part of 2006 but new year, new start. I can't get into the Spn fandom, though. Are you quite sure you don't fancy trying some Blim? Very pretty boys. *g*

Good luck with the catching up. *hugs*

[tabaqui]

Thank you! It really sucked hard, but man - the instant the whole surgery thing went down it was like - omg, i feel a billion times better *already*!!

Blim? Dunno what that is. Pray, enlighten me!
:)

[piratepurple.livejournal.com]

*pets* I'm really glad you're feeling better. :( Sucks to be ill.

hee... I've bookmarked this post so I can go back and make sure I've read everything. :)

[tabaqui]

*rurrr*

It does! Makes me tired all over.

Man, my bookmarks are *out of control*!!
:)

[ruric.livejournal.com]

Oh noes! Sorry you have been feeling so crap but I do hope you're well on the road to recovery now!

*HUGS*

[tabaqui]

Thanks so much! I'm feeling so much better now - i'm *mobile*, omg! I hate being stuck on the couch or in bed, it's just the worst.

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

{{{smishes you tight and wishes you well soonest}}}

and yay! ficlist!

[tabaqui]

Thanks, bay-bee.
Yay, ficlist! I've been bookmarking like mad. Heh.

[herself_nyc]

Wishing you a quick recovery!

[tabaqui]

Thank you thank you!
:)

[spikendru.livejournal.com]

I am so glad you're feeling better! And that the outpatient surgery went well and fixed the freakin' problem! *hugs*

I've definitely bookmarked your list. This year, I am especially appreciative of friends' fic round-ups because I was off-line for so long and missed a lot of good stuff! So, now I am bookmarking like a crazy thing and hoping to eventually catch up. (And I bet my stack of bookmarked stuff is higher than yours! *g*)

*snuggles you and glad you're not in so much pain*

[tabaqui]

Oh man, me too! Such a freakin' relief when she said we needed to do it - i was seriously at the end of my rope!

Yay, bookmarks! I love 'em but omg - i have so many! Heh.

[deirdre-c.livejournal.com]

Sorry you've been feeling so horrible, darlin'! Here's to good health in 2007! *hugs you oh so gently*

[tabaqui]

Yay, good health!
For you, too, just in case!
:)
*Hugs back*

[lostakasha.livejournal.com]

Ew, ick, ow and goddamn! So glad you're feeling better.

And thanks for the list -- the first thing I thought was "I can't wait to re-read Tumble, Turn, Overflow."

*runs off to bookmark your roundup*

[tabaqui]

Wheeeeee!!
Now, a re-read is *awesome*.
:)

Thanks, bay-bee!

[julia-here.livejournal.com]

Hate that you've been sick- that was all supposed to get taken care of. Stupid doctors not being omnipotent.

Julia, I feel need to complain to someone in a position of authority. Pan, perhaps?

[tabaqui]

Hrmmmmmmm....
I'm not sure. Considering the stuff i write, i think the Archangel Raphael might be better - he *is* in half of my stuff...

I hate being sick, too - it's so freakin' *lame*. Jayzus.
*hugs*

[twilightofmagic.livejournal.com]

I've been missing you and now I know why you haven't been around. Poor thing. I sure hope things are going to settle and you'll back to your usual bouncy self. In the meantime ::major glomphing hug and vigorous hair ruffling:: You be better, hear?

[tabaqui]

Yes, i've just been...off. Blech.
*rurrrrrrr*
Feeling betta, sah!
:)

[moimoietmoi.livejournal.com]

Wow, the past week can't have been easy! I'm glad you're feeling better now!
*hugs*

[tabaqui]

I really do! And i'm glad, too!
:) Thank you thank you.

[sparrow2000.livejournal.com]

oh love, it really sounds like you've had a shitty end to 2006, healthwise. I'm glad you're sort of on the mend now and I'm sure Cat and the Monstrous Bebe are taking good care of you.

That's a great list of fic, you really were busy last year. I know I've still got to finish your SPN fic. I started it and then got distracted, but it's there on my list (will probably go back to the beginning to remind myself)

Oh and I second Kitty's rec on reading The Sentinel stuff. I hadn't seen the show but I started reading some of lit_gal's Sentinel fic and got completely hooked. But then again, you sound like you've got enough of a reading backlog to be getting on with.

Take care and make sure you don't overdo things.
much love
s xx

[tabaqui]

Yes, it's been so very frustrating! Sheesh. Being sickish is one thing, being so ill i can't get off the couch - yech!

I'll be forever catching up, and i'm so sure i missed stuff. *sigh*

I do hope you finish the SPN story! I really enjoyed writing it and thought it turned out well. When Neverland is done, i'm going to start posting a new one - Spander xover!

Thanks, bay-bee.
*hugs*

[trishabooms.livejournal.com]

Poor you!! But it good to know that you're feeling a little better.

[tabaqui]

Thanks! I'm so *happy* to be feeling better! I hate being sick, especially when nothing is *working*.
:)

[anelith.livejournal.com]

What a rotten thing to happen! I'm so sorry that you couldn't have smooth sailing after the hysterectomy. And then for the scan itself to cause further damage?!! That's when you want to turn into Godzilla and smash a city or two...

So VERY glad that the surgery was a success and brought almost instant relief, though. I will be thinking good thoughts for you and hoping that this is an upward trend for 2007 -- nothing but bliss from here on out. Tell those innards of yours that they had better behave, OK? :-)

[tabaqui]

Heeeee!
Yes, i'm going to be having a *very stern talk* with my innards!
Man - i have *never* felt so awful. The worst part? It just. wouldn't. stop. Gah!

So, yes, healing now, trying to eat and drink like i *should*, and trying not to go nutso cleaning and running around because my body is *so sick* of just sitting, it hurts! Getting up and moving is *good*!
:)

Thanks, bay-bee.
*hugs*

[tiger-lantern.livejournal.com]

Oh! *hugs you lots* I'm so glad you're feeling better, and I'm in awe of the amount you've written and the quality of your writing even more so now that I realise what you've been dealing with. I wish you all strength and speedy bouncing back to full health *wish!*

Thanks also for listing your 2006 fic, there are a couple of pieces I haven't read yet and hadn't realised I'd missed them. Heee!

All the best sweetie xxx

[tabaqui]

*rurrrrrrrrr*
Thank you!
:)

I'm feeling so much better now - hopefully that'll be *it* for a good long while! Tired of being sick!

[lunabee34.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry you've been ill, both in your body and in your heart. Somehow, it's those heart hurts that often the worst. So I'm sending you good vibes on both scores.

*hugs*

[tabaqui]

*hugs back*
Thanks,bay-bee!

Really, though, i *am* feeling better.
And i am *also* being petty. So, so petty, and so old enough to know better.
Blah!
:)

Now for the *me* part - aren't you just so glad?? Since Thanksgiving i've been repeatedly, annoyingly, ill. On and off, nothing *serious*.

I'm so glad you're better--hate the thought of you--you crying.

I didn't know you were German! Say something in German! Say it now!

Consequences, however...i have a stack of bookmarked stuff to rival the Empire State Building. OMG!

Lucky sum'bitch.

I'll be reading forever. If i don't comment on something that *you* wrote in, like, a week that you just *know* i would have, drop me a link! I'm sure i missed some stuff. I also have a long-time, haven't-seen-in-years friend coming by tomorrow or the next day and lo! my house is gross.

Your house isn't gross.

You know i'm feeling better when i start to eat again and i start to *clean*. Heh.

Can I send you pie?

Last thing. I'm nursing a grudge. A petty, stupid, indulgent grudge that i bitched about to Snow and should just *let go* but my feelings are a little hurt, so... No, i'm not going to discuss it and no, it involves *no one* on my flist. It's just me being...petty. *sigh*

I'll send you pie, if you spill.

Love you all! See you soon!

You'll be running marathons in no time. And by running marathons, I mean writing fic =D

ETA! I almost forgot! The Monstrous Bebe made a fanvid! She plays 'Toon Town' and she made a vid to a Pink song - she'd love a comment! Cog Building.

I'll check it out and comment . . . uh . . . Cog Building? Toon Town?
::is woefully out of touch::

[tabaqui]

I AM OK!
So much better now. Really truly.

Ummmm...*ahem*...Danke Shoen, darling, Danke Shoen...
:)

My house is marginally less gross. However, still to do - bathrooms, mop kitchen, dishes. And shopping. Yerk.

Ummmm...you can send me Luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurve!

Heeee. Poking at fic right now!
*poke poke*

Toon Town is an online Disney game. You can't actually 'chat' and you can't tell things like real names, you just make a 'toon and run around and beat the bad guys and play games. It's a lot of fun for her.
*smooooch*

Thanks, bay-bee - you make me smile!

*check your email*

[twilightofmagic.livejournal.com]

I think I've fallen significantly behind in reading your fics. I will remedy but not just at this moment as it's bedtime. Never enough time....

[tabaqui]

Heeeeeee!
That's okay - you can start *first thing*!
:)

Happy New Year ... better late than never ^_^;;

[mythologian.livejournal.com]

yeah! rundown! now I can catch up on all the things I missed in the last couple monthes while school ate my brains.

I hope you feel better soon luv, being sick sucks *sends you good health vibes*

Grudges typically are petty, but if it hurt your feelings enough for you to feel you can't let it pass I don't think it falls into the petty catagory. When someone hurts your feelings you need to let them know, even if they didn't know what they were doing was hurtful, it doesn't mean it hurt you any less and they should know that their actions were hurtful so in the future they won't repeat the same mistake.

Then again it could just be an attack of neurotic crankiness brought on by feeling crappy for the past couple monthes along with the hormonal factor of having a hysterectomy, but either way I hope it works out for the best *hugs*

Re: Happy New Year ... better late than never ^_^;;

[tabaqui]

*waves at you*
Hi hi! Glad you re-grew your brains!
Heh.

Well, this grudge won't benefit from me saying a thing, and it *is* extremely petty. But hey! I can be petty if i wanna, it's my lj! Heh.

And really - neurotic crankiness is probably half of it, so....
*smoooch*
Nice to see you!

[twisted-reach.livejournal.com]

Oh sweetie, glad you're feeling better, sorry you've been ill.
"Womens problems" - I like to scare my male colleagues by dropping them into conversations about health stuff. Another woman and I once managed to clear a room full of middle aged men discussing their vasectomies. Tee hee. A small compensation, but fun.

[tabaqui]

Thank you!
Yeah, i'm happy to be feeling better, too - being sick just makes you tired!

Women's problems rock as a way to annoy and terrify people. Heeeee!
