Ficlet compilation time, plus a meme.
Glee—Quinn, sort of Quinn/Tina. 1110 words, PG-13. Something like a character study, I guess. WIP that will never get finished because it got royally effed up by canon characterization-wise. Pre-Preggers. ( Cut. )
Glee—one-sided Tina/Finn for ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif) gleeverse. 460 words, G. ( Cut. )
Harry Potter—Hermione Granger, implied Hermione/Padma, Veronica Mars fusion for . 570 words, PG-13. (One of these things is not like the others~.) ( Cut. )
And two outtakes from Walk Like Rain:
Rachel/Quinn, set three years after WLR. PG, ~1200 words. Guess the last name of the minor character in the first scene and you get a cookie. ( Never Felt Like Such A Fool In Front Of Anyone )
Santana, Santana/Puck, set a few months before, throughout and immediately after WLR. PG-13, ~1500 words. Warnings for minor recreational violence? IDK. Also contains major spoilers for the fic. ( The Other Side of the Door. )
1. Write down the names of 10 characters.
2. Write a fic of fifteen words or less for every prompt, using the characters determined by the numbers. Do NOT read the prompts before you do step 1. I fail at brevity, but ( this was fun. )

Taylor Swift - Stay Beautiful |
] |
I don't know how the hell I've been watching Bones, but the other day I checked my TV shows folder when I was about to begin my Bones download and had a moment of, "Episode eight? Already? Did I get this wrong? There's been eight episodes of Bones this season?" I seem to be having trouble absorbing the show lately. Like, I enjoy it, but it doesn't stay with me. Haven't watched this week's yet, though—looking forward to it, despite what I just said.
( Assorted thoughts on the past couple episodes of Glee. )
Anyone have any Taylor Swift music to share besides her two albums, Christmas When You Were Mine and Untouchable? Live or studio, I don't care, I need more TSwift in my life.
Aaand I need an angle for my aiholidaybash story so badly. I love the pairing I have to write, but I don't think I can work with the prompts, and I know what kind of story I want to write, but I don't know what should happen in it or how to begin. It's driving me crazy.
(Also, for the record, LJ's failing to notify me of new comments, sigh.)

Title: Hold On, Baby, You're Losing It
Fandom: Glee
Pairing: Quinn/Rachel, mentions of Quinn/Finn and Quinn/Puck
Rating: adult
Warnings: tentacles (highlight to read)
Length: 2480 words
Summary: Maybe Mrs. Fabray was on a do-good high after giving up one of her kidneys for her cousin, or maybe it was just the morphine, but she'd brought Mr. Fabray—she kept calling him that, like it meant something—along with her to the pedes aisle to distract herself, and Quinn was being rocked to sleep by a nurse, unclaimed.
Notes: Written for a glee_kink prompt, sort of. Warning is hidden because I sort of made a (porny) fairytale out of it, and the story might work better if you don't know what 'it' is.

1. Somehow, every night for the past... four? days I've felt super depressed right before going to sleep. I even took an anxiolytic pill last night and it made me feel better, but there were a few minutes of paranoia anyway. It's so bizarre. I'm actually beginning to figure out what the fuck I want to do that might actually be plausible for me to do, so this makes pretty much zero sense.
2. I'm going to go to bed in about an hour, after I watch the Leverage pilot (which I never got round to, because I caught the show on cable last spring on the weekly rerun of 1x02 and went from there) to see if that distracts me from my crazy, so might as well ask — I just finished the last part of Walk Like Rain (thank. fucking. god), my Rachel/Quinn Sky High fusion, and while I'm holding true to the whole "I won't edit this thing in depth until February" thing, a proofreading/missing-word-spotting/sensemaking-confirming beta would come in really handy. I really want to post as soon as possible so I can forget about it and start working on my holiday ficathon assignments, so—anyone? Before I go to sleep? (Like, I'd send it over before that, not like I expect you to be done before that.)
—oh, by the way, it's 16,900 words long. Don't want to ambush anybody with the word count.
3. On the topic of asking, this is kind of terrible of me, but as you guys know my current Internet connection is shit, and I really hate that I can't keep downloading The West Wing. :( If someone could send me some DVDs with seasons 2-7, as many or as few as you want? You'd be a real lifesaver. (Or, like, assorted past episodes of The Daily Show or The Colbert Report wouldn't hurt either. I miss Jon and Stephen so much.) (Or Leverage season 1.) I have a pretty huge collection of movies (as in, .avi files) so I could probably try to send something back.
4. And just to add an extra bit of patheticness to this entry—like it even needs it—I, um, would really appreciate some kind of crash course in David Henrie/Selena Gomez. Links to pictures, videos, interviews, primers, really just about anything would be really, really helpful. (And don't underestimate my ignorance—if you think I've probably seen something already, I most likely have not.)
( since this is pretty pointless anyway, here are the songs from that character association meme I did the other day. )

I think last night I made some emotional progress re: my situation. Instead of being 100% paranoid, I was only 80% so, while the other 20% of my brain came up with plausible options that made me feel a little less pessimistic than usual. That's never happened before. Thinking about this somewhat actively, though, usually heightens my proneness to, like, existentialist depression, so I really could use some love. :D?

random WIP meme. I don't even know where I found this one or why I'm doing it, except I should be in bed already so I'm not exactly at my brightest.
post an excerpt from every wip you can find. no explanations allowed, just the excerpt.
( AI8 RPF, Disney RPF (AU), FNL, Glee, Mercy, in no particular order. )
Did I mention that I have a bit of a cold? Not that it matters, but my throat feels raw and horrible. Everything else is manageable. And now I'm really going to sleep before paranoia kicks in.

I'm trying to finish the last part of Walk Like Rain and have it make sense, which basically means I am staring at my Scrivener document and freaking out about all the possibilities, the ones I'm aware of and the ones I'm not, the plausibility of what's going on, the pacing, Rachel's characterization, whether I need more groundwork for the plot to make sense, etc. etc. this is what happens when you try to write action plot having watched a grand total of four maybe five action movies in your life and writing in chunks of four hundred words instead of giving the story enough time to move on its own.
So, anyway, if I keep staring and doing nothing I will run out of eyelashes to tug at, so here's a meme:
Give me a character or pairing in a fandom I'm at least vaguely familiar with and I'll upload a song that reminds me of him/her/them.
