Happy Birthday lunkidunk! I hope you're having a great day.

I'm so impressed with Numb3rs. In the last day or so I've seen all the episodes except one, which I'm going to watch after Corey's bath. So tell me, what day is the show actually on so I can wait impatiently for the next one? The whole show has gripped me so hard, I love the family interaction between Charlie, Don and his dad and the other characters are cool too. I especially like Larry and the way he'll pop up with theories to help Charlie. Touching on the shallow, both Charlie and Don are hot which is always good. But really, the show goes beyond the eye candy, the plots are good, the interaction between the characters a pleasure to watch and I just enjoy the show so much.

Sadly it doesn't seem to have a developed fandom. I went looking at the comms on LJ and backed away quickly. What I don't get is why people go out and make communities or lists with the express intention of bashing a character. That's insane and surely that energy would be better used for something positive in the fandom?

While I'm thinking of media fandoms, castalie and I have updated the Sentinel Thursdayarchive with the latest challenges. Which considering how neglected it was a few weeks ago just makes me want to beam with pride.

Moving on to something that doesn't make me feel proud. Someone needs to tie me to my desk and make me write because man, it's like getting blood from a stone at the moment which is rather worrying. I have the story, I have an outline about what's going to be written. I even have the very last scene and dialogue planned but actually writing that down seems to be beyond me. I'm tempted to write the end scene but I've found that usually doesn't work for me. I like to write straight through, but at the same time it may be just enough to get the story moving again.

I'll have to think on it, but now it's bath time for Corey then more Numb3rs for me :)

ETA: Someone just asked for The BS Factor on The Sentinel storyfinders group. That story ripped my heart out the first time I read it. I'm going before I'm tempted to read it again.

That's the exact same thing that's happening to me. And I just keep on staring at the few measly paragraphs I have for hours on end, and there's still no progress.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I sympathise, really I do.

I've got just over 3000 words but have been stuck for ages.

We'll do it though! I know we will!

[trumpeterofdoom.livejournal.com]

I'm stuck on my first scene. :( Woe. *continues to stare at document*

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Can I help?

Bat ideas around, read what you have, I'm up for anything except writing the thing ;)

[trumpeterofdoom.livejournal.com]

It's more the transition into the next scene that's got me all spazzing out. I've got the outline and the plot (if you can call it that), and I know exactly what happens in certain scenes, but definitely not this one.

Numb3rs is great and it's on Friday night. I love the interaction between the characters as well and Charlie is so pretty. As is Don for that matter :-). There's character bashing going on? This makes me sad, because I like all of them.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Friday, I can wait that long I guess ;)

Charlie really is pretty and Don too. I'm used to having one character to obsess over, looks like in this show I'll have two *g*

It's an anti Amita group which now that I've checked it out is really slow which I'm glad about. I mean, it's not like I'm going to go out and read Charlie/Amita either but that doesn't mean I'd join a group against her. I'm like you, I like all the characters.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_bettina_/]

Two characters to obsess about in one show is even better than just one ;-).

People bash Amita? I like her, she's nice and cute. Some people.

[castalie.livejournal.com]

This makes me sad, because I like all of them.

This is another reason why I love the show so much - because there are so many wonderful characters that you can find everything you want with every one of them *g*

[http://users.livejournal.com/_bettina_/]

They all have their moments, especially Don and Charlie when they are together. :-D

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Bettina, I hope you're not hinting at the cest?! ;)

[http://users.livejournal.com/_bettina_/]

Of course not ;-).

[castalie.livejournal.com]

I love those two together. Add their dad to the midst and I'm in heaven *loves the Eppes family*

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I think I've just proven what a perverted mind I have when I read that.

Bad Terri *slaps own hand*

[http://users.livejournal.com/_jules_/]

Okay, I'm downloading the first episode of Numb3rs (though I hate that 3 in the name) because you keep raving. I must see what this is all about.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I hope you enjoy it because I really love the show. Charlie is gorgeous, as is Don and they have a relationship I like a lot.

I have to admit the 3 annoys me too, especially in groups when each 'e' is a 3. There's just no need for that!

Don't kill me if you hate it!

[http://users.livejournal.com/_jules_/]

I watched it (after it finally finished downloading). I got about halfway through the episode and then suddenly realized, "Aaah, I see why Terri likes this so much - incest potential." Heh. Don't deny it!

It was quite good, no need to kill you. I'm on a bit of a police show kick for some reason, so I think I'll start watching it. I do enjoy math too. Are all the episodes about Charlie helping his brother solve cases?

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Now Jules, would I think that? ;)

Most of the episodes seem to be Charlie helping Don. Hopefully they'll change it around some in later episodes.

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

so okay, I keep hearing about this Numb3rs thing. what is it?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_bettina_/]

Charlie Eppes is a mathematics professor and he helps his brother Don, who is a FBI agent, solve cases. Very nice show, cool characters and great interaction between the characters, especially Charlie and Don :-).

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

ahhhh! thank you!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Yeah, listen to Bettina, it is a cool show. Did you ever watch Northern Exposure? Don was Joel in that. Which is just a way of leading up to saying the show is full of eye candy as well as being cool ;)

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

*laughs* I've never even heard of that, either. like I really need to watch more shows! ;p

[yami-tai.livejournal.com]

Yay! You like Numb3rs too *grins*! The Epps family are great, aren't they?! The torrent files tend to appear early on Saturday morning... it's a great way to start the weekend, imho ^_~!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I do love it. Mouse pimped me into the show and I'm so glad she did *g*

So, next torrent will be Sat, I suppose I can wait that long ;)

I love your icon btw.

[yami-tai.livejournal.com]

So, next torrent will be Sat, I suppose I can wait that long ;)

Sadly, no! On TV Tome they are saying the next episode (No. 8) will be shown on 1st April!!!!

I love your icon btw.

Thanks ^_^!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

1st of April!

That's a lifetime away!

ETA: Someone just asked for The BS Factor on The Sentinel storyfinders group. That story ripped my heart out the first time I read it. I'm going before I'm tempted to read it again.

Oh, Jesus. One of the few TS stories I actually remember. It's been...*eight years* since it was posted, and I still recall the brouhaha that surrounded it. 'OHMYGODIT'SADEATHSTORY! WITHNOWARNINGS!!!!!' I don't know when you got involved with the TS fandom, but I think BS Factor preceeded SXF. If it didn't, it wasn't by much.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I wasn't around that early but I can well imagine the fuss. Never have I known a fandom so stressed about labelling.

It's why I skirt the edges of the fandom now keeping the one list I'm still a member of on no mail.

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Just sent you a mail regarding ST - sorta urgent in a way. And it's all my fault btw, so don't worry *facepalm*

If you find a way to tie to your desk and write the story you want, please give me the tip cause I'm in the same boat! Story is all there, just needs to be written, and hey I'll meet the deadline soon enough now!

More Numb3rs yay!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

It's changed and don't blame yourself. It's hardly your fault you forgot I'd have to make a new story table.

I think rope will have to come into the desk tying somehow. Maybe around our ankles and around the desk legs *g*

I love Numb3rs! But did you see when it's back on?! April the 1st! *cries*

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Actually it is since I'm the one doing the coding. It's even more frustrating that I kept telling myself NOT to forget to change the link when it would be time, and of course I had to forget *pout*

This is getting so kinky, melikey *eg*

It's so fucking unfair! No Lost, no Numb3rs, it's torture!

[ceci2176.livejournal.com]

Come on, Terri...you can do it! Just put some angst and owies in there, that will probably help inspire the musae.

Oh, right, that's what works on my musae and it might be different with yours. ;-þ

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I wish it was that easy ;)

I've picked a hard setting which is really limiting, but at least I broke the block today.

[ceci2176.livejournal.com]

I'm only at 467 words on my sentinelsecrets story.... :-/

[turps33.livejournal.com]

That's 467 more than me *g*

[ceci2176.livejournal.com]

*feels slightly better about herself* *eg*

You'll do fine. *waves pompoms*

And, and, and... JC would lay in bed with kevin late one night after the best white wine pesto and angel hair, and sex that had both of them panting like breathing had become toxic. And JC would turn and kiss Kevin slowly, as if he were trying to exhale into Kevin, and Kevin would return it and sigh into his mouth.

Your accent slips out so perfectly when you scream my name. Kevin would whisper and JC would shoot up in the dark.

What? JC asks.

Your accent. British, right? Or did they recruit you from somewhere else? Kevin asks.

I'm from maryland, originally. United States. Mom and Dad moved out to london when I was young. Moved back to maryland for a little bit, not a very long time. Back to London, and stayed there until MI-6 picked me up.JC groans.

You must have been to all these great places, all those parties and everything... Kevin sighs, looping his fingers into JC's, spooning up against him. Is it like in the movies?

Sometimes, but not always. More often, it would just be something like fittng in somewhere so you could go and get some kind of weapon without getting caught or something. No Torture is usually involved, rarely ever got caught with what I did. JC sighs. He would be able to tell that he's walking on thin ice.

He'd feel unsafe for the rest of the night, even as Kevin dozed off and began snoring lightly in his ear, he'd stay away and not sane, as if he were a prostitute chained to his master's bed.

He'd only feel safe enough to sleep when Kevin had gotten up early the next monring and left.

EEP!

Thank you!

[lunkidunk.livejournal.com]

*hugstight* Thank you Terri! I'll open your ecard when I get home on Tuesday ok? *mwah* *licks you*

[turps33.livejournal.com]

You're most welcome, honey.

*blows kisses*
