someday, sleep will be mine in a place where I don't drool on my desk
There are many reasons I refer to my sister's son's father as Future Serial Killer, because he's just that disturbing. At four this morning, he continued his adventures in Calling Obsessively For Hours Until I Try to Give Him Hives With My Mind.
So I've been awake since the ninth call, circa 4:30, and I totes tried to sleep and gave up at five-thirty. However, I entertained myself with various things and also decided I will not destroy worlds, because that would be wrong.
Instead, other things.
The Vampire Diaries - Damon Wants You to Watch
Okay, it is rare that a show manages to be better than the books, but strangely enough, they are. I read the first four when I was eighteen (and more's the pity that she added to the series after that) and so far I'm grooving the changes (especially Vicky, since her fate seriously sucked and let me tell you, this? Improvement). If you can make it through the first three eps, the fourth starts picking it up, and the sixth is awesome not least of which because Damon dances on the side of a balcony to "Enjoy the Silence" and frankly he's ungodly hot. I mean, don't even watch the show. Just watch episode six for the dancing. I'll send it to you.
Bonnie is seriously awesome - SHE LIGHTS FIRES WITH HER MIND. I really want her to be my BFF so I can help her find things to start on fire. I'm that kind of awesome friend.
I'm still thinking how I can write to the SV producers and show them Elena as an example of how to do a character with a tragic past right. There really isn't a character I don't like on this show. Well, Caroline, but you're not supposed to like her, and there's this pity thing going on? Anyway.
The Vampire Diaries! Yay!
svmadelyn and I spent part of one night mapping out the plot arc this season, since they seem to be keeping certain elements from the books, please let them keep this element, please.
Anyway, for those who are interested:
salvatoreslash - for all your Damon/Stefan incest needs. Did I mention they are both ungodly hot, Stefan is angsty, and Damon is amoral, fashion conscious, and bites people a lot?
tvdnewsletter - for all your The Vampire Diaries newsletter needs!
I don't want to say you should write this fandom so I have more fic to entertain me. But that's kind of my motivation here.
Fiction
So I added another four thousand words to Trek fic, and it's now--well, longer. I mean, I can see the end! But by the time I finish this no one will care, which is actually kind of motivating. That means I can skip spellcheck! Which hates me. Really.
Last check, my WIP list in Merlin, Star Trek, The Vampire Diaries, Due South, and Heroes is not getting shorter. There's a fair to good chance they will rise up and kill me in my sleep. I'm weirdly okay with that; it means I would get to sleep. And not be reorganizing my computer by the light of the stars.
Current News
I'm trying to figure out how to fall asleep under my desk without anyone noticing.

Also - he needs to NOT CALL that early. Can you turn the ringer off?

From:Also, Damon Salvatore dancing to "Enjoy the Silence" can never be topped. Well, unless he's a pushy bottom.
Also the second - you have never finished watching Farscape so you can write fic for me. Hmph!

From:I hear that actually happened to Robert Jordan. That's the danger of creating a cast of thousands and then doing not very much with them over an extraordinarily long time. RIP, RJ. RIP.

From:As for the books? There is a scene in the first one that if they included it? I think I would die blissfully happy. UNF. They are both so hot it kills me.
Thanks so much for the comm pimpage, doll :)
I await more Damon/Stefan fic from you with glee.

We must be brain twins! I said the same thing!
From:Yeessss... I started watching on epi 5. But yes, the story does pickup with 6, and good lord, the dancing. Yeeesss...lol
Yeah, I read the books for my neice (wanted to rec her some good books--she was a Twilight fan) because she challenged me to find her good teen vamp books for her to enjoy after I went on a 25 minute rant (no, seriously) on Christmas about how glittering vampires are really not vampires, they are disco balls, and who would want to revisit highschool for like 70 years?
Um, so.
Yes, so I recced her VD and Vamp Academy (Rose and Dimitri FTW!) as alternatives. Thank God she's a smart chic.
Thanks to SPN, and my manic need to see the very first second of that show, I am now a VD (holy... that looks like venereal disease...Jesus) fan. I typically (since The Buffy) don't watch vamp shows, but I'm really getting into this.

From:As for the Vampire Diaries? I haven't read them & have been avoiding the show, but listening to this makes me wonder.... Keep pimping it, I might just get sucked in. Maybe.
Your WIP list is... Impressive. Was there ever an end to the FBI!John Sheppard fic where he is setting up Koyla & Rodney is desperately in love with him? Because if there was, I really, really wanna read it. Please?
For falling asleep under the desk & hiding it? Pull the chair forward enough so it looks like you tucked it neatly under the desk. Do not roll over and nudge it while you nap. Nor can you snore. Good luck at this.

Or Stefan, actually.
Or both. I'm not really picky.

And the brothers should make out but, *points to icon* I've been saying those words for a while now and it never seems to have any effect.

And they probably have. I mean, TPTB can't show us every second of their lives together. I bet that Katherine was down with the 'cest. Probably got human!Damon and human!Stefan to have sex with each other and then erased their memories.
. . . I'm going to hell, aren't I?

From:Sorry about the odd writing, just slipping this in before I head to bead. Also, if you do decide to write fics for this fandom, I'd definitely read it. Considering your fanfiction got me to watch Merlin, I'd probably watch a few episodes just to know what the fic was about.
But please don't abandon your STxi fic! I'm really looking forward to the sequel.
