Blackbirds & Crows

Yes yes, it's done! Finally! And i've felt like such an amazing slacker, not working on this. But now it's done! Wheeeee!

Thank you guys so much for sticking with this 'untraditional' Spander story and for cheering me on - it's been great!

As always, huge hugs to reremouse for her poking and squeeing and timely beta-remarks, and to darkhavens for telling me if my sci-fi 'stuff' made sense. *smoooshes you both*

sweptawaybayou - does the 'Spander' line count? Heee! S/X all the way, bay-bee!




( Part Nine )



ETA: Art! *bounce* Wheeeeeeeeeee!!

Yes, actually updating! Sorry it took me so long - seems like the holidays just discombobulated me completely.

But i'm back! First things first, though. The Visit!

In other news - i hate my state. Only two cities that of i know of are showing Brokeback Mountain, one is two hours from me and one is four. Fucking hell!

And - Supernatural has sucked me *in*. I saw my first ep this week and oh man, oh man, oh man. *Flails*. Yis. :)


Now, the story! So glad you all have waited and *read* this odd thing. I know it's not to the taste of a lot of you out there, but i really appreciate the support! *snuggles you all* Especially *snuggles* reremouse for her uber-support and de-erroring and just general chit-chat and help. Makes all this *so* much easier when i've got her to decompress all over!

Part eight.

...babble!
Wheee!
:)

Everybody on my flist is all 'snow, it's snowing!' and we have *none*!! So not fair. It's cold as all get-out, but *no snow*.

The kittens - who, let's face it, are not really kittens anymore - are all in the house today, just 'cause it's so cold. L'il Brudda *waves at Strongbad* has a cold with sneezes and a weepy eye, poor guy.

We've done a little xmas shopping, all for Monstrous, basically. Gods, we're so broke. Ah well. Makes it easier - only one person to shop for! Tomorrow, hopefully, we get our tree. A cold tramp through the woods searching for the perfect cedar is always good. And i love, love, love the smell - fills up the house.

I have a rec! Absolutely lovely stuff. Basically it's an OC POV story 'about' Spike, and Slayers. The Vietnam War, the jungle, soldiers and civilians and vampires... Absolutely incredible. Follow the link in the header for other ficlets in this 'Series of Short Stories about William the Bloody. You will *not* be sorry.

I didn't mention this the last couple of posts, but reremouse is still the absolute bomb for looking this story over for me and correcting my mistakes and giving me invaluable feedback. Thanks, doll!

Hallo, flist!
*hugs you all*.
:)

Anyway - NaNo! Yis, i've been slackin'. Ah well, Still *writing*, and that's all that counts.

Let's see, what else?
nwhepcat finished Keeper of the Book. Absolutely wonderful fic that starts after the robot-dad incident. Mostly gen - there's a little sparking between Wes and someone, there's humor and horror and cliffhangers! and...it's all in all just a lovely read. Go! FB!

Vastly enjoing our new and improved cold weather. *snuggles my space heater* It's the best! We've even had below-freezing mornings! Bird-feeders full and suet hung! Watching the little ladder-backs and chick-a-dees and titmice is so much fun.

savoytruffle finished There's Your Trouble, a delightful cross-universe Spander romp. Read! Laugh! Love! :)


And now, the fic! Previous parts are here.
Thank you thank you! as usual to reremouse, who encourages and snarks and pokes and bounces.
*smoooch*

Part four.


*la la la*
I wonder what a 'Scaling Heaven' icon would look like?
*la la la*

ETA: Just watched my 'Bones' tape - the gun convo at the start! Heeeeee!! I'd be happier with that show if they did *not* do a 'sympathize with extraneous characters' bit. Just concentrate on the forensics and, you know...Agent Booth. :)

ETA2: Now i've watched 'House' - wheeeee!! House confirmed! And the gay patient confirmed! *snerk* Jayzus, Cameron, get over yourself. Skeery eyebrow lady! BWAAAhaha! *ahem* No, i have no morals.

Here it is, timeline included. Heh. Yes, i am a geek.
*bounces away*

Character Sketch/Backstory is here.
ETA: I'm an utter dork. Thank you thank you reremouse for endless chat and beta-ing, and darkhavens for the scifi junkie beta!
*smoooches you both*
