seperis | surprise me with a smile

We have achieved:

1.) Turkey and deliciousness. My God, the deliciousness. There was corn souflee.
2.) Completed uploading all QAF and all single-entry-in-LJ Merlin fic to Archive of Our Own, link here for those who have really been hating reading in LJ format.
3.) Bought Adam Lambert's album in deluxe, and I kind of can't work out where this is coming from. Yes, I know,

astolat, but also, seriously, I listened to him during AI and I liked some of it (I love covers that recreate the original song in interesting ways; I have a playlist that's nothing but covers), and the AMAs were--wow, and the video was amazing, but--okay, yeah,

astolat did this. Plus, Whataya Want From Me has been on repeat for about twelve hours now because like I once explained about my dysfunctional relationship with music, only one in ten songs I like and only one in a fuckload more become an obsession that turns into a spiritual journey (fictionally speaking) and hey, this one is it.

I seriously, seriously love this one and For Your Entertainment. They are writing music. They have their own playlist.

Granted, varied with Kelly Clarkson's Already Gone and Daughtry's Life After You and I don't know about anyone else, but I see a pattern here. The only reason David Cook isn't playing is I burned through him writing Merlinfic earlier this year and I haven't recovered from it yet.

I am turkey-enabled and listening to Adam Lambert while re-reading

astolat's AIRPS fic. I mean, I'm sure someone somewhere is having a better Thanksgiving, but I cannot see how. I'm not even wearing pants! (I am wearing pajamas.) In bed! There is pie later!

Random recs from the last forty-eight hours of reading.

House of the Living by

astolat, AIRPS, zombies. No, really. Zombies. And done so beautifully I kind of hurt from reading it. And really, there should be more fic with Adam armed. Yes, my kinks are not your kinks, but Adam is shooting things and--wait, why isn't this your kink? You are weird.

We Are Not Your Friends (We're Here to Eat You), a fusion of AIRPS and True Blood. This should not work and yet it does and does it well.

Bluebird by

basingstoke, Torchwood/Addams Family, Jack/Ianto. Look, I would not steer you wrong. It's everything that Torchwood is in it's craziness and everything that the Addam's Family always has been, no matter how much we didn't know what we were watching before. It's pretty awesome.

Still Life by Jeepers, Star Trek RPS, Zach/Chris. This one is incredibly well written and sharp and sweet by turn. It's one of my favorite re-reads in the fandom.

*settles down with more fic*

*is amused in your general direction*

*sulks*

*pats your shoulder*

Just think, you have a playlist for another epic fic!

*said helpfully*

Ahaha. I love watching my friendslist fall helpless under the spell of Adam Lambert. \o/ Did you see Adam perform Whatya Want From Me on Letterman and/or The Early Show, by chance? Because that song = love, live. His little face.

...no. Is it up somewhere? This is my song! I NEED THIS.

I'm also capslocking. I am not ashamed, but eventually, I might realize I should be?

WWFM on Letterman (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-X7I2iSGEPo) and on the Early show! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-hbf1t2hVc)

CAPSLOCK IS THE ONLY RESPONSE TO ADAM. HE IS TOO AWESOME TO BE CONTAINED IN TINY LETTERS.

I love you so much.

God, his performances just blow my mind. I think I kind of blame those for this.

*settles down to purr*

Isn't he something else? His eyes and the way he bites his lip when he's singing and how he says "freak" with that little smile and his voice. I, um. *fans self*

Talent is my fannish type! I CANT HELP IT.

I'm becoming more entranced with Adam every day and I think I know who is to blame *eyes

astolat and

morebliss suspiciously*

This. Damn them. And

linzeestyle above did not help with that.

Oh yeah. I'm totally blaming Astolat for this one, I didn't even watch AI and suddenly I found myself on the AI website watching all of the Adam vids and pre-ordering the deluxe album on iTunes >.

This. Also, they no longer have Adam's rendition of Ring of Fire at iTunes! I WAS VERY UNHAPPY.

Hmm... Much as I love Adam, I don't love Ring of Fire :( Part of that is because of how they played it up as "OMG the first time someone reinvented Ring of Fire!" when I have an mp3 in my iPod that says otherwise--it's an Indian-style remake (gasp!) by Universal Hall Pass, which has existed for at least a year before AI8. It's not like I like that remake either, but still.

hellooooo. hi. can we help you with some information? some downloads? did you get the THREE extra songs (being time for miracles, master plan and down the rabbit hole)?

*grins* That is why I bought the deluxe and I never buy albums.

Couldn't someone, somewhere, release a DVD or bluray of every single performance he has ever done, ever somewhere? *sulks* I cant' find the AMA performance anymore and that is not happy making.

oh don't you worry, honey. we can find such things. you still need ring of fire?

YES PLEASE.

I cant' find the AMA performance anymore and that is not happy making.

Totally butting in that I have a high-quality avi file of it, if you need.

Holy shit I feel like a crack peddler. If you'll just step over here, into this alley, let me open my trench coat...

Please.

You sort of are? It's not like And Play a Favorite Song isn't like, on my main re-read list, mmkay? I like crack dealers!

Alley isn't damp, is it?

150mb AVI (http://www.sendspace.com/file/w9peqh) | 483mb MPG (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=X1DD326M) | 43mb MP4 (http://www.mediafire.com/?ndyy5qzwhzz)

Let it never be said this fandom is not ON THE BALL with media.

Also, \o/. I am proud to have contributed to your addiction. You know, Adam Lambert has a very poor recovery rate. I hear the addiction is fairly permanent. Just sayin'.

*pulls in trenchcoat*

Thankyouthankyouthankyou! Downloading now!

Thank you so much!

Ohmigosh I'm grabbing this too, someone shared their links with me but it's in like, 20 parts and on Rapidshare and I'm just not that patient :D

Don't know me from Adam (no pun intended) as I lurk on the wonderful seperis' LJ for the fic and recs.

I have also downloaded this performance with many thanks.

LH

I'm cheap. I just bought two of his songs from Itunes. I like Whatya Want from Me and Time for Miracle.s

If you combine two of Amazon's deals (and live in the US) you can get his regular album for $1. Details on Astolat's lj (basically, Amazon's offering $3 in download credit and the album for $4)

Recently joined the Adam obsessive society myself and so feel compelled to tell you that if you join the lj comunity ontd_ai they have every single episode of Season 8 in their archives and available to download.

I have had the album for 4 days now and have gone thru at least 5 songs that I am addicted too. Right now I am on Pick U Up. I defy you not too sing along.

You've seen the music video for fye, right? :D

The OMG!HOT video, you mean? ;D

haha yup the official one (tho needs moar boy on boy, there should be a fandom edit)

I'm not quite on the bandwagon yet. *bemused at the pun in that statement* But uhm. I can see why he's fannish catnip. He's a little minx. *g*

Er. I made icons, and you're welcome to them if you like them. (I'm losing this argument about how I'm not on the bandwagon by the second, aren't I? *g*)

I love you. I lack a basic sense of aesthetics when making icons, and OMG these are lovely! STEALING NOW KTHX.

:D :D He's awfully pretty, and I keep watching the video, and it's completely okay that I keep forgetting to screencap things I want for later, because hey, that means I can watch it again!

The power of Adam Lambert is pretty undeniable. The fact that so many people are succumbing makes me feel less crazy (or at least less lonely) that I'm all ♥_♥ about him all the time. He's the first person I've felt inspired to write fic about in years.

Basically, I think he might actually be a magical unicorn prince.

Welcome to the crazy train! I love seeing a new Adam fan! And isn't House of the Living amazing? I've shared that one with a few people outside of fansdom, and they loved it. :)

Ha! I have been reading

astolat's entries as well, and find myself tempted...

Which is ridiculous, because I don't even like the Idol show in my own country, let alone someone else's!

Still.....*folds like a cheap card table*

He's so pretty! lol

OMG, you're getting into my current favorite fandom? SqueeeeEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

Please tell me you've seen the For Your Entertainment video. You do not want to know how many times I've watched it this week. Hot. Like. Fire.

Still Life by Jeepers, Star Trek RPS, Zach/Chris.
For a minute there, I thought you had found a story I hadn't read yet. :( (Btw, are you following this series? If not, you should be.)

Short shameful confession: I clicked on that zombie story link and on seeing the banner at top, immediately realized two things:

1) I don't actually know who Adam Lambert is.
2) Woo-hoo! M1 Garand!

...sometimes I am very out of step with my flist. :)

thanks so much for the rec, it kind of made my day. ♥

I totally couldn't thank you for reccing me when you posted this, but I just wanted to come back now that the reveals have happened and thank you for the rec on We Are Not Your Friends! I really appreciate it. Seriously.
